I recently purchased iCloud storage for my iPad Air so that I can store my photos in the cloud. I don't know how to do this. I want to be able to retrieve them as well.

Hello Janet
With that iCloud storage that you purchased, is used for mainly for iCloud Backup for your iPad Air, app data as in games and documents for like iWork and other apps that save data locally within the app. Dealing with photos in your Photo Stream they actually do not count towards that storage plan. If you don’t think that the storage is going to work for you, then cancel the upgrade you just made.

HT201318 Need help with being double charged on my icloud account when purchasing extra storage for my ipad

Need help with being double charged on my icloud account when purchasing extra storage for my ipad?

I had this same problem on my 4S. I fixed it by restoring the phone to factory defaults. Previously, I had taken the additional step of restoring from backup but, as soon as I did, the problem returned. The fix is a hassle as I now have to reinstall my apps but at least I can manage mail on the phone.
The problem also occurred on my iPad2 but I'm not restoring it as it's a serious hassle (see above) and I don't actually read much mail on the device.
As a side note, I noticed incredibly high load averages (5+ processes for 1, 5, and 15 minutes; 12+ for 1 and 5 minutes at one point) as well as CPU usage that didn't drop below 15% (apparently all user processes, system seemed to be about normal). As could be expected, this also lead to incredibly rapid battery depletion.
I can't tell what processes were hogging the CPU as neither of my devices are jailbroken and Apple doesn't seem to like 'top' much.

HT4859 How can I restore a previous backup in iCloud storage for my iPad?

How can I restore a previous backup in iCloud storage for my iPad?

Restoring an iCloud backup requires you to first erase your iPad. If you have any newer data that you want to save you'll need to do that first. Then go to Settings>General>Reset, tap Erase All Content and Settings, go through the setup screens on the iPad and when given the option, choose Restore from iPad backup.

I recently purchased Kaspersky security for my Macbook Air???

I recently purchased Kaspersky security for my Macbook Air. How do I download it since I have no CD drive?

Return it for a refund (if you are able). You do NOT need A/V software for a Mac running OS X. At a minimum, they waste resources and can occasionally do real harm.

No you didn't.

Except for anything you did not purchase in iTunes Store.
Only you iTunes purchases are in the cloud.
Reada the article that brenden dv posted to copy your iTunes library to new computer.

The Apple apps that appear in the Free app section are not normally free and they are free only to people who qualify. To qualify you must have bought a new Mac since 1 OCT 2013. Or you must have the older version of these apps on your Mac when you upgrade to OS X Mavericks 10.9, after which you get the Mavericks versions for free.
If you qualify for free apps the Buy button sats free. If the Buy button has a price, you do not qualify for these apps for free.

Accidently deleted recently purchased icloud storage, how do I get it back

What files did you have stored in iCloud?

Purchase iCloud storage for other users

Can I buy iCloud storage for other users?
Thank you.

To the best of my knowledge, purchased storage stays with Apple id it is purchased to. To the best of my knowledge, it is unlike itunes store, and is not obligated to comply with local laws/regulations for downloads.
I wish sometimes that people like you could create tips on do's and don'ts internationally, since we are all a bit shortsighted when it comes to Non our country situation. Unfortunately that tip here will die in the dark.
BTW, I think your switching store may backfire for you, but I am sure you were informed of that on the phone.
Question:
Is it possible to pay in EU for iCloud accounts valid in China (RMB) and in the US (USD)
They do not care( they will charge in acceptable units and card will take care of exchange rate), as long as card is accepted by corresponding store ( it is if it is on your file, and if not on file -you will find out as soon as you try to put it on it )
As in the end they will end up back in the EU.
What happens if you extend the storage in 1 country and then move to another country with a different currency and extend it again?
I think I already answered that one.

ICloud and iOS 8: How to store photos on the cloud only?

I Thought iCloud would make me save space on my devices by keeping my photos on the cloud. But it mirrors all photos on the cloud into my device (I know iOS can store lower resolutions of the photos, but they take a lot of your device's space anyway)! You should be able to pick which photos you want to keep localy (so you can access them even with no internet) and wich photos you want to keep only on the cloud. If you want to delete photos on your device to open some space... be careful, they will also be deleted from the cloud. There is no way to erase it only locally.
I bought the 200G plan so I can access ALL my photo library using the photos app in iOS 8.
But how am I supposed to upload my entire photo library (100G of photos) to iCloud and access them using Apple's Photos app?
If I get 100G of photos into iCloud, how my devices will access the photos if all my devices have only 32g and everything should be mirrored?
is there a way to keep photos only on the cloud and not on all your devices?
I'm confused.
Am I missing something?
thanks.

Wait for iCloud Photo Library to be introduced later this year. It should allow you to keep full resolution photos and videos in iCloud and access them from your devices without having to have them stored on your devices. It will use your iCloud storage plan.

Try updating your iTunes using an iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe) installer file downloaded from the Apple website:

Purchase icloud storage for devices in different countries

Hi,
Just to relieve my system pressure. Was going to post a question. But I need to let out my grunts:
My experience with Apple is kinda written in blood. But for now I've got to live with it.
Well I'm a Globetrotter, so is my family. And Apple is not designed to have international support.
Accidental Damage: Don't buy that 'accidental damage' if you move around the globe. Isn't valid outside your region of purchase.
A good insurance or purchase through American Express is the secret to get a broken iPhone replaced.
AE replaced an broken iPhone and send me a replacement within 48 hours. Thats what I call service.
Purchase international models: Ask for it or double check what model you get. If you don't have an international model they (Apple Store) refuse to service it outside your region. Yes Apple and International Support is a joke. Only in the US the Apple Stores are great and understand we don't only stay, live and work in 1 country.
China service: Never, never service it in China. Mine got serviced (battery exchange) at an authorized service point for free.
Checked at the Apple Store in Shanghai, back home still had problems....Local Apple Store checked the phone....warranty voided.
6 months old iPhone slowly died in the month after. The suckers in China reinstalled something inside upside down and never registered it in the repair log.
Few months later back in China with the phone...No sir we didn't do it, we always register any repair.... Liars.
Microphone:
Now I've got an EU iPhone in China with the microphone very soft. Including 'Accidental Damage', Apple China refuse to support it. It was bought in Amsterdam. A firmware update fixed the problem partially thanks to US support.
But it's annoying my kid has to use a headset for six months until he's back home and get it serviced here.
And I don't want to buy him a Chinese iPhone, cause then he doesn't get service when he's back home.
Good, finally out of my system. And remember the US Apple employees have always been the positive exemption in the last 10 years or so.
So after the long story here comes my cross border question:
I want to extend the iCloud storage from Europe for my family.
Using different App-Stores was already a crime. Thanks again for the US support to help switching stores.
1 account is switched to the Chinese Appstore
1 account is switched to the US Appstore
Question:
Is it possible to pay in EU for iCloud accounts valid in China (RMB) and in the US (USD)
As in the end they will end up back in the EU.

HT4847 how do I purchase iCloud storage for family plan membe?

My wife had her own iCloud storage upgrade but the card on her storage expired. Prior to the expiration I added her to iCloud family as a parent/guardian. Now, her storage upgrade has expired and she can't change it because she's on the family plan. She spoke to iCloud support and they said basically I have to buy it for her. How do I do that? Why must this be so hard? I've searched for solutions but can't seem to find Apple-authored solutuons that deal with this specific situation and don't see anywhere on my iphone where I can buy or share storage for her.

I should add...her iphone, when trying to change her icloud storage, still shows that her card has expired and only allows me to re-enter the CVV code. There doesn't seem to be any other option.

How can i make more room for my icloud storage on my ipad? i want to delete some apps to make more room but it won't let me?

Why are you SHOUTING in the worst font ever invented?
Apps aren't stored in iCloud.
Are you trying to clear space in iCloud (which is stored on the internet, not in your iPad), or are you trying to clear some space in the internal storage of your iPad?

Hi Im using OS Windows 7 Professional 32bit driver for apple ipad air in order to transfer photoes from ipad to hp laptop

Unable to transfer photoes from ipad to windows 7 laptop.
Error message
"This device is not working properly because Windows cannot load the drivers required for this device. (Code 31)"

That is one heck of a post for a newcomer here. Your instructions worked like a charm, with one exception:
When uninstalling the Broadcom Device, I had to check the box to delete the driver, and then had to scan for new hardware to get the device to show back up. Then I was able to load the edited driver software.
I am not complaining, but very grateful, as I was pulling my hair out on this one.
