Accessing pictures on iOS

I upgraded to iCloud Drive on all of my devices recently (OS X 10.10 & iOS 8.1) and I simply addedd some pictures to the root folder of iCloud Drive in Finder. How can I access these pictures on iOS?

This is new and it doesn't appear to be quite complete yet, so I'm guessing here. It appears that pictures are accessed through "iCloud Photo Library" and the other documents through their own respective iOS apps. There is a "reader" that can see the documents across the iCloud Drive, whlie on your iOS device, but it doesn't seem like it can do anything with the documents. I'm going to be waiting and seeing how all this pans out.

  • Does anyone know how I might be able to access picture frame in IOS 6 while in Guided Access mode..?

    Does anyone know how I might be able to access Picture Frame while being in Guided Access mode..?

    I don't exactly understand your issue but if your stuck in guided access press and hold the power and home until you see your device turns off keep holding then when you see the apple startup logo let go (this is called a hard reset or a respring) this will force you out of guided access and into the home screen where you can unlock the device with out being stuck in guided access
    If this does not help you please ignore this comment

  • How do I access pictures from my iPhone saved in iCloud so that I can delete some of them from iCloud selectively?.

    How do I access pictures from my iPhone saved in iCloud in a computer so that I can see & delete some of them from iCloud to free up the free 5GB?.

    What Mac model do you have? What system version and iPhoto version are you running?  Do you meet these requirements:
    The following is for this Apple document: iCloud: Photo Stream FAQ
    What do I need to use Photo Stream?
    To use Photo Stream, including Shared Photo Streams, you need an iCloud account, compatible devices, and up-to-date software:
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 6.0 or later
    Mac with OS X Mountain Lion v10.8.2 or later and iPhoto 9.4 or Aperture 3.4 or later
    PC with Windows 8, Windows 7, or Windows Vista (Service Pack 2) and the iCloud Control Panel 2.1 or later for Windows
    Apple TV (2nd generation) with Software Update 5.1 or later
    You can still use Photo Stream without Shared Photo Streams if your devices meet these requirements:
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 5.1 or later
    Mac with OS X Lion v10.7.5 or later and iPhoto 9.2.2 or Aperture 3.2.3 or later
    PC with Windows 7 or Windows Vista (Service Pack 2) and the iCloud Control Panel v2.0 or later for Windows
    Apple TV (2nd generation) with Software Update 5.0 or later
    If you do then sign in to the same iCloud account that's on your iPhone on your Mac via the System/iCloud Preference pane as shown in this screenshot:
    Next setup iPhoto's Photo Stream preference pane as shown in this screenshot:
    The photos on your iPhone must be in it's Photo Stream so make sure the iPhone has enabled Photo Stream as shown below:
    Now you can select a photo in the Photo Stream section of iPhoto and control-click on it to delete it:

  • HOW DO I ACCESS PICTURE DATE AND TIME?

    HOW DO I ACCESS PICTURE DATE AND TIME ON A IPHONE 4?

    There may be a 3rd party app that provides for this. Apple's iPhoto iOS app provides this data.

  • IOS4 issue on 3GS-can't access pictures or use camera!

    I updated my 3GS with the iOS 4 software as soon as it was available. I did all the things Apple adviced me to do prior to the update- such as transfer bought items and backup my iphone.
    After updating the 3GS with iOS 4 everything seemed to be going well, except for 2 things.....I can't start the camera and I can't reach my pictures.......when I click on either- the iphone starts connecting to the picture library, but after 4-5 secs the program shuts down and I'm back in home-mode!
    I've tried to restore from factory settings but the same thing remains (and restore with previous saved security backup)...can't access pictures or use the camera.
    Although if I restore and set up as "new iphone" instead of backing up previous settings and media everything works! Camera works and I can enter picture area (although off course it is empty.....being a new iphone)
    So there seems to have been a problem with the backup prior to the iOS4 update.....
    Funny thing is that when I have the iphone connected to the pc and I look at iTunes....there is 1.65 GB of pictures on my iphone...although I just can't see it.....
    Also in the previous iTunes there used to be a tab for "pictures" just like "movies" "Music" "tv-shows" etc etc......no the "picture" tab is missing.........?!?!
    My wife also has a 3GS and I did the software update on hers.....and there everything works just fine!!
    I have so far come to the conclusion that I could restore to factory settings and start fresh with the option "set up as new iphone", but then I would loose all contacts.....all programs and email settings........which is a pain in the butt.........
    I'd appreciate if someone could help me because the help desk in Norway (Apple resellers) don't have a clew.....
    Anyone?!?
    Thanks in advance

    Someone gave me help in my own thread. They used a Mac program and deleted files, but Im on Windows 7.
    I used iBackupBot 3.0.7
    Just load it up (I had my phone connected). The select a backup and then select 'Browse and export media' button then on the pop up window is a complete list of all my missing media. There is an export button in the top corner.
    I have all my photos and videos back now YAY!
    Thanks all!

  • How do I hide the artist picture in ios 7 music player?

    I like the artist and album "list view" in the ios 6 music player much better than the view that includes a random picture on ios 7.  How do I hide the picture and get my list view back?

    Just to clarify the behavior I'm experiencing on my iPhone 5, I can get new updates but the old ones appear with the Open button and don't clear themselves out from the Update screen.

  • HT201304 Is it possible to restrict access to specific IOS apps based on the WIFI profile that a user has connected to?

    Is it possible to restrict access to specific IOS apps based on the WIFI profile that a user has connected to?

    you might be able to block it if the app uses Internet access
    and depending on your wireless you might be able to block a specific user
    accessing the backend host that the app uses
    some firewalls offer application filtering but I'm not aware of any that work with ios apps

  • Do I need internet access on my iOS devices to enroll with Profile Manager?

    Hi, I'm trying to configure Profile Manager on a closed network. The Mac Server does have Internet access, but the network for the iOS devices can only have communication with the server, but not to the internet because of company policies. Is there a way around to make it work or do I need internet access on the iOS devices as well?
    I've made the enrollment process in another network with internet access for every device and everything works well, but on the other network(no internet for iOS devices)  everything seems ok (from conection to the server, profile certifiacation and stuf) but the devices can't send or receive anything else, like pushed configurations and device info. Ports and everything is ok, I even read that they need to be on an open network so I know it all comes down to having internet access, but just wanted to ask if there's another way around?? Suggestions?
    Thanks!

    You can share internet connection with your XP-PC using a router(as I do with XP-old MAC's,connected via cable).You may look for more info at:

    Did you ever use a MAC before? Have you got Airport at your PC?Which?

  • HT4859 i want to access pictures from a backup only! not restore a device, how do i do this?

    I need to get acess to a backup, as in WHAT it backed up in terms of pictures. I do not want or need to restore a device, just access picturs.

    It is not possible to examine specific data stored in an iCloud backup, except by restoring it to your device.  If backing up with iTunes, it's possible to use 3rd party software to extract data from a backup, but not with iCloud backups.

  • Accessing Pictures Held on iCloud Drive

    Hi, I have been waiting for Apple's iCloud Drive offering for a while and want to transfer my docs/pics etc. to the new service - but the lack of a standalone Apple iCloud Drive Application is strange.  Yes, you can access Docs via Pages etc. but HOW do you access pictures.  I have over 30GB of Pictures and if I wanted to transfer them onto Apple's cloud after upgrading my storage option how would I then access them on my iPad/iPhone??
    I uploaded a single image to iCloud Drive and looked into the Photo's app for any sign of an iCloud Drive folder to suggest they had been found and there is nothing - so how do you do it?
    Cheers

    At the present time, you can only access data in iCloud drive from within apps that support it.  See http://www.imore.com/icloud-drive-clearing-up-confusion.

  • Just upgraded from snow leopard to maverick.  Can't access pictures from iPhoto now.

    Suggestions?

    No suggestions until you explain what "can't access pictures from iPhoto now"... means, or even looks like.
    There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 9 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
    - History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    - Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
    Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

    Does anyone know how to access photos from the iCloud?  My iCloud from my previous phone shows up on my new one but my old one was broken and I wasn't able to retrieve any information from it.

  • Is there any way I can access pictures on my iphone without wifi

    My phone was stolen and I really want the pictures I took from that night

    If the phone was connect to wifi before it was stolen, the photos may have been added to your photo stream.  If so, they can be accessed from a different iOS device or computer that is signed into your account with My Photo Stream enabled.
