Can't get photos from iCloud onto iPad since updating

HI guys, not very technical so please bear with me  
Basically, I updated my iPad software yesterday and all my photos disappeared. So I shared them all again from my iPhone so they would then go back on to my iPad. This worked at first and then stopped working so some photos are on Ipad but not others, and I cannot figure out why or what to do to get my photos from icloud onto my iPad. Anyone know what is wrong or what I can do to fix it?
thanks in advance for any help  

Can anyone help? Basically, any photos I send to iCloud are not going to my iPad now since updating. Would appreciate any advice please.
thanks

  • How do I get photos from iCloud TO iPad?

    I connected my iPad in my computer and I dind't mean to restore it, but ir did. So now all my photos from the iPad are gone, but I know they are on iCloud. But the problem is I didn't make a backup from iCloud, and now I can't get them back to my iPad!
    Please help me, I'm losing my mind here! There are over 1000 photos!
    Thanks

    The only photos backed up to iCloud are the ones in Camera Roll which are only there if you selected iCloud for your iPad Backup. If the backup was setup to be on the computer there may not be one on iCloud. Through the Restore process you should have been prompted to restore from a backup if available. This is you best option for recovering only those photos which were stored in Camera Roll.
    iCloud does have the Photo Stream service which is not intended to be a back up but more of a service to share your photos between other devices. It is possible to use Shared Photo Streams for backups but it is also intened to be used to share photos. The "My Photo Stream" has a 1000 photo and 30 day limit in which photos are removed from the servers once these limits are reached. You can log into iCloud and turn on Photo stream on the iPad which will return any photo still available on the server, but not all will be there.
    Since Photo Stream and iCloud are more of a syncing service other than string the limited data in the iOS backup irreplaceable files should be synced to a dedicated online photo back up service. Or at best transferred to a computer where they can be organized and properly backed up using external drives, CD/DVDs and/or other online services. Once organized iTunes can sync an additional copy for viewing on the iPad.
    Good luck.

  • TS1387 Can't get music from icloud onto iphone4--do not have enough permissions

    I have an Iphone 4.  I am trying to put the music library from my icloud onto my iphone.  Had no trouble doing this with my ipad.  But, when I try to do this, syncing through my PC (windows 7), I get the message "Jane's Iphone will not sync because you do not have enough access privileges for this operation" It's recommended to delete the "iphone cache" in my picture library, but there is no iphone cache folder in my picture library.  Why won't my itunes load to my phone?  Why won't my iphone sync?  Any ideas? Thanks.

  • How can i get photos from mac to ipad ? please

    hi all, i am in a mess !, some how a lot of photos have been deleted from my iPad, and i dont know how ?.
    However i do still have these photos on my MacBookPro but i dont remember how i got them onto my iPad originally, over 2 years ago (this is nothing to do with Photo Stream)
    So PLEASE PLEASE how do i get these photos back onto my iPad ?. I would rather not use iTunes, i think this may be why the photos have gone AWOL in the first place !!!.
    iTunes always seems to be so dammed complicated for my liking
    i have an APP called iExplorer but i cant work out how to get that to work, i can two Finder Windows, one for MacBookPro and one for iPad but something seems to be write (or read) protected, i can select all the photos on my MacBookPro in one window but i simply cannot drag them across to the iPad window !!!

    Hey Timmy,
    I use Dropbox to get my photos to/from my iPad to my computer wirelessly (no iTunes). The process below is one I posted a few weeks ago for the opposite process than what you're wanting to do (from iPad to computer) but Dropbox will work both ways. Just set up a Dropbox folder on your computer and set up the Dropbox app on your iPad and they will both be in sync automatically.
    Hope this helps!
    ~Joe
    ---from a post I did a few weeks ago---
    The Dropbox app has a very cool auto-upload process that will automatically upload photos from the iPad Camera Roll to Dropbox.
    First sign up for a free Dropbox account from your computer.
    Then, download the free Dropbox app on your iPad.
    Log in to the Dropbox app on the iPad with your new account and click on the Photos icon in the lower left corner of the screen (second one from the left).
    Select "Enable Camera Upload" and "Only Wi-Fi." The upload process will begin for all existing photos in the Camera Roll.
    From now on, all future photos taken by the iPad will automatically upload to the Dropbox folder. You can then download your photos from Dropbox to your computer by going to http://www.dropbox.com, logging in to your account, and downloading the photos. You can then put the photos on a USB drive or burn to a CD or upload them to a photo processing website.
    Hope this helps!

  • HT1296 Can't get photos from icloud & more probs??

    1. Some months ago, my husband's phone packed up & he wen't to the istore for a replacement. The guy there said he was able to retreive pictures off the old phone & had put them on icloud. My husband doesn't have an icloud account so the guy somehow put them on mine(don't know how he got into it, without password, etc). We've been unable to find them though & istore was no help, saying we needed icloud on the computer to get it - had WinXP at the time & was unable to do that.
    So I've just upgraded to Win7 and still can't work out how to get the photos! It seems now there's just a website for icloud, when I thought previously you had to download a program. On the page it doesn't show photos or videos. Somewhere in my travels I came across an icloud page that showed various 'albums' of mine, which included my husband's lost ones. But I couldn't do anything with it & haven't been able to find it again. How do I get these photos??
    2. Also when I look at my contacts in icloud, they're old & include my husband's contacts. Also the calendar has obviously synced & shows current events, with correct days, but with the wrong times!! WTH??
    3. Since upgrading computers, when I tried to sync my phone with itunes, it came up that I had to erase my phone, because it is synced with another itunes library(that was on this computer, now no more!) So... been searching for answers today to no avail.
    I was able to 'transferred my purchases' from the phone to itunes, but not sync. & then when I plugged it in last time, to press sync & get the exact message to post on a help forum, it didn't give me the message!! No message for a basic sync, it just didn't work. But when I go into the 'tones' & 'music' tabs & click 'sync music' it comes up with 'Do you want to remove existing music...from iphone? Remove & Sync is the only option!!
    When I 'authorised' this computer it also said '5 of 5 allowed on the account'. As we have 3 computers & this one obviously has registered as 2(don't know where the 5th one comes in), I figure the next problem will be that we can't authorise the other computers at all!!
    So I presume answer to no.3 is in cancelling the accounts for the previous 'library' on this & other computers, but how do you do that??? Presume my husband will have the same problem on his computer, as that's also upgraded to Win7.

  • Help please!  I can't get songs from icloud onto my laptop.

    Hi, I have had a terrible time with my music and iTunes of late. All of which I am sure is because I have installed and unistalled so many times in the last 3 weeks that
    I have created a huge mess. I can see the songs in itunes - (most have been purchased) but when I try to listen to them, put them in a playlist and try to burn a cd- I get a message stating that they are not on my computer. I have been trying to download songs from the icloud to my laptop and I get a message that states:
    The file name was invalid or too long. Please check that connection to the network is active and try again.
    or
    There were problems downloading some purchase items.
    Before this whole nightmare began I had added "google drive" to my computer and I think that alot of the files are stored there. When I open the music folder the thread goes on and on.and on.. So frustrated. Can anyone help?
    Thanks

    I fixed my problem - yours might be different, but it might be the same too . . . My problem was similar to what you described. The hardware connected sound was there but the device seemed to not be recognized. Turned out that it was just running very very very very very slowly (thinking that it was an old as hell Iomega Zip dri've)
    The Creative device was using a driver written by Iomega (that was the tip off)
    Once I got rid of the Iomega stuff, it works fine.
    If you have any slower (older?) mass storage dri'ves - you might try uninstalling them to see if that fixes the problem . . .
    good luck

    Hi People!
    Please help...I want to know how can i get photos from ipad to the computer, that were synchronized previously to ipad but from another pc that i dont have access anymore and these pics are now only found in this ipad and no other place.

    Hi Alan,
    Thanks for the help, but i've actually done that before.
    It does not help, because it only shows the photos on the camera roll and do not show the photos synchronized with that pc that i dont have access anymore.
    The photos/albums all appear on the ipad, i can see it without problems but i cant get them out of the ipad to save onto pc for backup.
    And i reaaly need it, as it is the only place that i actually have these photos now...

  • HT201317 Why is it when I get a new idevice and try to upload photos from iCloud onto my device there are always a large portion of photos missing?

    Why is it when I get a new idevice and try to upload photos from iCloud onto my device there are always a large portion of photos missing?

    Adding to fromsouth...  if you are restoring from a backup, then only photos in the camera roll are made available, not others.
    If you are using photo stream, then only photos that have been on the stream server in the past 30 days (and a max of 1000 of them) are downloaded.  All others have been deleted, since photo stream is not a storage service, but a syncing service that allows you to sync photos over a 30 day window.

  • Can I load photos from iMac onto iPad2 model A1395?

    Can I load photos from iMac onto iPad2 model A1395?  The model A1395 is described as "wi-fi only" and has a 30 pin connector for charging.
    [By contrast, this is NOT the iPad2 model A1396, which is described as "Wi-Fi/GMS/GPS AT&T" or the Model A1397, which is described as "Wi-Fi/CDMA/GPS Verizon". Nor is it the model A1337, described as "Wi-Fi/3G/GPS (Original)".]
    Wi-Fi only seems to me to have an ominous ring to it.  I am synching with my iPhone through the iCloud, if that is of any use.
    In addition, I should note that the photo files I want to look at in the iPad are large files, a little over 100 MB in JPEG format.  The desire is to display the whole image (these are archival photos of heirloom quilts) and then be able to focus in on specific details (by enlrging them so that the stitching and other details can be seen).  I mention this because I tthink there may be some 30 MB limit on the size of a file that the iPAD can handle.  Would I be able to examine a larger file (but perhaps npot as large as 100 MB) if I had 64 MB memory in the iPad?

    WiFi only refers to the fact that the iPad connects to the Internet via WiFi because it does not have cellular capability. That has nothing to do with the ability to put photos on the device.
    Sync the photos from the Mac via iTunes.
    Connect the iPad to the Mac and launch iTunes.
    Click on the iPad name on the left side under devices.
    Click on the Photos Tab on the right.
    Select the folder from which your photos are located in the Sync Photos From Heading. If you use iPhoto - select that or navigate to the specific photos folder on the Mac.
    If you use iPhoto, select all of the albums, or events that you want to sync. If you use another photos folder, you can select one level of sub folders within that main folder.
    Click on Apply in the lower right corner of iTunes
    Having 64GB of storage also has nothing to do with the ability to view the photos on the iPad since that refers to storage capacity. However, the larger the storage capacity, the more photos the iPad will be able to hold.
    I know of no limit on the size that a photo needs to be in order to be viewable on the iPad.
    If you use iCloud, you can sync photos that you shoot on the iPd and iPhone across devices via Photo Stream, but it just be turned on for this to work. Settings>iCloud>Photo Stream on. Any photos that you take on one device after photo stream is turned on, will sync to the other device.
