Cloud picture transfer to other devices.

I took a picture with my iPhone and saved it to my camera roll.  I wanted to email the picture out from my MacBook but it takes a long time for it to transfer to iPhoto.  In this world of speed, I really didn't have the time to wait and didn't not know how long it would take to transfer.  Is there way I can speed this process up?  I could have emailed it from my iPhone but that was not my choice.  I know the picture will get there eventually, it always does, but what determines the time?

Perhaps it's your cellular or wifi network, my photostream photos sync in seconds.

  • If I have an older iPhone and it is connected to my cloud account with my other devices, what would happen if I delete my cloud account from that phone, will I delete it across all my devices?

    Also, I have one more thing to ask. Can I then set up a new cloud account for the old iPhone just for my son to use?

    Do I have to create an iCloud address to stream my pictures to my othe devices?  Can I use my regular e-mail address?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    Yes, you need an iCloud account in order to use photos stream to share your photos between devices. You can use your own e-mail address as a primary address and Apple ID for the iCloud account if you wish to do so.

  • HT201077 My ipad was restored but I had saved my pictures on my other device but hasn't been backed up for 5 months  how can I view those pictures on my restored ipad

    My iPhone 3GS has all my pix stored in.nut I haven't backed it up in 5 months because I'm scared to lose my pix.my ipad was restored so lost the pix on my ipad.hw transfer my pix to my iPhone into my ipad?

    If you only have iCloud's basic, free 5 GBs of storage, if you had more than this on your iPad, chances are high that your backups to iCloud weren't a complete iPad backup, anyhow. And since this has been full for 23 weeks means that you may end up only retrieving a fraction of your current data that you had on your iPad, if what you had on your iCloud backup contained anything that may still have been on your iPad.
    This is just one of the reasons I do not like Cloud storage services.
    The best and most reliable backup of your iPad is to use a computer with Apple iTunes installed on it and connect your iPad to your computer and let iTunes syc and backup all of your iPad's data.
    I an afraid without a clear, comprehensive backup, whatever is saved to your iCloud account is all you are going to be able to retrieve.
    If you have purchased anything from IOS App Store and/or iTunes on your iPad, all of iTunes and iOS App Store purchases will have to be redownload and reinstalled.
    You won't get charged, again, for the purchases you had already made.
    Sorry.

  • The music I bought is on the cloud, but not the music I downloaded from other CD's I own. How do I get those to the cloud to access on other devices?

    I have a PC and have downloaded music from CD's that I own.  Have also purcahsed music from iTunes.
    The songs I've purchsed thru iTunes show up on my iPad, but the music I downloaded is not there.
    How do I get the songs I've downloaded (and are on my iPod and my PC) up to the cloud, so it will also show up on my iPad?

    You have to connect and select iPhone in iTunes under DEVICES (Left panel), select Music tab (right top), check Sync Music, and all the music you want on iPhone then tap Sync button (bottom right).

  • Help! My photos won't stream to the cloud and share with other devices. ( I've had the photo stream button on all the time I've had the phone.) The only way I can do it is by manually adding them to photo stream and this is very slow/ misses photos..

    Hello,
    I'm very frustrated. I need to delete photos from my iphone to increase the storage so I can update the operating system. Since first using the phone I bought extra iCloud storage and ensured the photo streaming button for the iCloud was turned on.
    Unfortunately it seems to have a mind of its own and will download and share some photos but the majority have not been downloaded.
    I've resorted to manually putting them on photo stream (the one you share with friends) so the photos will be on my iPad. It also takes ages for my iphone to put them on the photo stream. It's downloaded one album x3 ..??!!? I've tried deleting the duplicated photos but it's now frozen on me....
    I haven't dared delete the photos from my camera roll in case I loose them all and I'm therefore stuck in the situation of being unable to download the new operating system or take anymore photos/download music/apps. It *****!
    Please Help!
    Are there any other options for me to be able to  download my photos when I don't have a computer/laptop? Is there a permanent online storage option I can use?
    Thanks
    Becky

    Amazing steps you've done so far! The great news is this is very unlikely an issue with your iPhone.
    I've run into a similar issue lately as well. I narrowed it down to one song that was causing 30 songs not to sync. I removed the song from the sync list (unchecked it) and all 29 songs were able to sync.
    You may be running into a similar issue. This may be a problem with this version of iTunes, an issue with one song or a group of songs; hard to know for sure. It's important to narrow down and isolate the cause. Most imporantly get that music back on there!
    The way to narrow down the casue add just a few songs at a time (even 1, just to get that first sync finished). Manually syncing is what you'll need here.
    Plug in your iPhone, on the Summary screen (shows a picture of your iPhone, the iOS version, Restore iPhone....; etc). Under the Options area at the bottom choose to Manually Manage Videos and Music then choose Apply in the lower right. The music that's on your iPhone now should be removed from your iPhone now. You're now able to sync music manually.
    The link below explains how to drag the songs from the iTunes library on the computer on to your iPhone which will start the sync. Add just one song just to see if you can get 1 of those hundreds of songs on there. If you can, awesome! Keep adding until you find the song or group of songs that are causing this issue.

  • I want pictures from each device in the cloud, but not on every other device. Possible? "iCloud Backup" alone doesn't seem to work....

    My goal is to acheive 3 of the following things.:
    Have all my apple devices sync pictures to the icloud *without* syncing the pictures on all the devices...so just one direction from device to cloud and not have all the devices insync from the cloud...... I don't want all the devices in sync, I just want the pictures protected in the cloud. To do this, I've tried to just turn on "icloud bacn-up" and not turn on "photo stream" to acheive this, but doesn't seem to work.
    If #1 is possible, then I would like to sync the icloud with a folder on my PC using the icloud app for the PC. Not sure if I can have only the icloud PC sync and not have all the devices in sync?
    If #1 and #2 could work, then I would sync the PC folder with my local storge.
    end result would be all my photos save in the cloud and a safe copy my home in my local storage. I would have thought that most people would want to do this, but doens't seem so obvious to me as to how I can get it to work?
    Any help would be appreicated.
    thanks

    You can't use iCloud as a safe place to store your photos when they are deleted from your devices.  iCloud designed to stream photos to your devices, and to back up photos currently on your your devices as part of your iCloud backups.  However, photo stream photos only remain in iCloud for 30 days, giving your devices enough time to download them.  And if you delete a photo stream photo from any of your devices, it is also deleted from iCloud and from all of your devices.  Furthermore, while camera roll photos are included in your backup, if you then delete the photos from your device and continue backing up, the backup containing the deleted photos will be overwritten by one that doesn't, and they will be lost.
    If you want to save your photos, import them from the camera roll to your computer as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.  Then you can delete them from your device.
    If you would rather have a cloud-based place to store your photos, look into a service such as Dropbox.

  • Will the Iphone thieves get access to transfer my pictures in Camera Roll to any other devices?

    My Iphone was stolen 5 days ago. In that day, after missing for an hour, I turned on Find My Iphone on my laptop and set Erase Device. But until now it still appears Offline and the Erase Device is still pending (waiting for Iphone to connected to the internet).
    I remember I turned on Find My Iphone on device's Icloud settings, but not on Locations.
    The problem is, I put a sensitive pictures of me in that iPhone Camera Roll right before it was stollen.
    I'm okay with the lost iPhone, I just want the device to erase every data in it.
    I put a Lock Screen, but the passcode is really easy (The thief might find it). I hadn't set the erase all the data after 10 failed passcode attempts.
    Would you help me to explain whether the Iphone's thief has a chance to transfer my pictures in Camera Roll to any other devices?
    -thank you-

    Did you restore your iPhone with iTunes from your iPhone's backup, or as a new iPhone or not from your iPhone's backup?
    Sounds like you did the former since photos in your iPhone's camera roll are included with your iPhone's backup. If there is a problem with these photos included with your iPhone's backup that were restored from your iPhone's backup, or another problem with your iPhone's backup, restoring from your iPhone's backup will restore the problem.
    Try restoring your iPhone with iTunes as a new iPhone or not from your iPhone's backup.

  • I have a number of audiobooks purchased through iTunes on my iPod touch.  Is there a way to move or download them to the Cloud so that I can access them on other devices?

    I have a number of audiobooks purchased through iTunes on my iPod touch.  Is there a way to move or download them to the Cloud so that I can access them on other devices?

    Thanks - I didn't realize that.  I'm also embarrassed to admit that I don't know how to transfer the audio files from my iPod to the iTunes library on my computer.  When I select a book from the list on the iPod, the only option I see with the right-facing arrow symbol is "Show in iTunes Store ".  I back the iPod up to this computer so I guess those files must be on it somewhere, but all I can recognize in the iTunes folder under " Music"  are the music files found in the "iTunes Music" folder. (There are also a ton of files named "iTunes Temp (some #).) The Books list on the computer shows some but not all of the audiobooks -  I purchased the rest on a different computer that is now unfortunately dead. I'm guessing now that those didn't transfer over when the new computer was populated from the old one, so the iPod may be the only place where those audiobooks now reside.  I hope that made some sense- any additional advice would be appreciated.

  • Can I synch the IOS5 created picture folders with other ios5 devices or my pc?

    Situation
    I have tons of pictures, and i'm constantly taking more.
    I love my iphone4 for taking pics and videos, and my ipad2 for viewing them.
    I also use my pc for backing up and viewing
    IOS 5 now allows me to create picture albums (aka folders) directly on my device, lets say the Ipad2
    Problem
    I cannot figure out a way to sync any of the pictures in the ios5 folders from my ipad2 with any other device, beit the cloud, the pc or my ip4.
    Solution
    I'd love for my ios5 to also synch these new folders and the pics within them, and not just the stream.
    Similarly, i'd like my pc to pick up on this and also add the folders as well as the pics.
    Anyone have an idea for a fix, workaround or app that would help?

    Hello Sir!
    After weeks of testing, i found the solution of my question. It´s quiet simply!!
    1º iPhone (3G Internet acess) connected to Mac mini by USB or BlueTooth or WiFi.
    2ª in Mac mini must be activated in "Preferencias", "Compartir", the option "Compartir Internet",
         "Compartir Conexión desde":   iPhone USB  or  Bluetooth PAN
         "Con otros Ordenadores vía":  Ethernet
    3º Ethernet cable must be connected from Mac mini to Time Capsule !!
    4º In Time Capsule "Internet":  connect by:  DHCP
                                 "Network": bridged
    Nothing more!!!  Sooooo simply!!
    After this, Windows XP SP3 connect without problem over TC´s WiFi or Ethernet to the Internet!
    Also other Devices like IPad, or other iPhone, etc.
    Of course it can be a created a WiFi connection (PPP) between the iPhone and the Mac
    and it´s working to.
    But ALWAYS, by changing the connection mode, must be changed the Thethering mode.
    In- and Out-Going!
    Thank you for your help, no I made me a "small" TC expert...lol

  • In Icloud I can't see my "numbers" icon which i need to select "tick" to transfer data to my other devices via icloud. any ideas why it's not showing up?

    In Icloud on my imac I can't see my "numbers" icon which i need to select "tick" to transfer data to my other devices via icloud. any ideas why it's not showing up?

    You have to do it app wise, which means that the icon won't show up in settings, but you will be able to move files from your local drive to iCloud via the Numbers app (move... > choose the iCloud option).
    It requires that you set up the same iCloud account on all your devices and that you have the latest version of Numbers on all your devices as well.
