How do i get my photos back from icloud

HELP!!! I think this maye be of no use but.. I brought a new iphone on the weekend in sydney and I started using it right away and click on use icloud. I took many photos over the weekend and when I got home (sleep deprived) i plugged it into my laptop and it restored and went back to the settings of my old iphone wipping ALL my photos and videos of the weekend. Just wondering is there anyway I can get my photos and back from iCloud??? Thanks in advance...

There is a chance that those pictures may still download after couple of hours if you had your photostream on the new phone and if you turn it on now. Usually there is 30 days backlog in icloud photostream.

  • How can I get my photos back from icloud

    How can I get my photos back from my iPhone 4 on the icloud I got my music and my contacts but for some reason I can not get my photos. 

    Hi sadie,
    When you did the backup, were the 1500 pictures all on your camera roll? Or were they on other Albums?
    iCloud is not a storage device for your photos. You should be importing them to a computer or uploading them to a cloud storage facility like DropBox or Flickr.
    Each time you do a backup of to iCloud, it creates a backup of what is on your phone at that moment in time. So, if you had some photos on one backup, but not the other, you would only be able to "recover" the photos from one of those backups. Photos in iCloud are not aggregative.
    Also, the iCloud backup of photos only includes those photos or videos in the Camera Roll. Photos in any other album are not backed up:

    If you had PhotoStream turned on, then the last month's-worth of PhotoStream, or the last 1000 PhotoStream photos would also still be viewable.
    Can you tell us where those 1500 photos were located when you did your backup?
    Sorry that you lost your photos. Take a look at DropBox in the App Store, or check out Flickr. If you aren't importing your photos on a regular basis to a computer, then these would be your best bet to protect your photos going forward.

  • How can I get my photos back from icloud after an upgrade?

    So I recently upgraded my iPhone 4s to an iPhone 5s last Wednesday. I had made sure to back it up with icloud 3 times on 3 different days prior to this. I received my new phone and it was backing up perfectly. Till I realized that my 1,500 photos hadn't uploaded and my phone wasn't letting me take pictures. It had only let me download about 300. I am devastated by the loss of these pictures. I have restored my phone multiple times and it still downloads the same pictures. I have no other problems. I called Apple and they said that the icloud only backed up these 300 pictures and my other ones were lost. But yet there were no signs of my backup being incomplete. How can I get my pictures back?

  • How do I get my photos back from Beta?

    Hi, for weeks mows I have been trying to get my photos back from icloud but I can't find them. I've read so many forums that say there is a bug and lots of other people saying they will be gone forever. when I follow the iCloud link it doesn't allow me to log in anywhere and I don't know what to do, can someone help me please? Many thanks in advance!!!

    Hi Terence, when I upgraded to iOS 8 a pop up asked if I wanted to backup my photos in iCloud which I opted for and previously I had all my photos stored on a camera roll or my photo stream. I thought that this would store them in iCloud however when I go to iCloud it always asks me to set this up on my iPad which I have already done Rather than let me access the photos. In the settings area I have the iCloud photo library (Beta) switched on and it's currently set to optimise storage, I just can't get into wherever these photos are stored. I'm not tech savvy at all but I have read and searched everywhere on what to do (and tried some options) but I'm wondering now if I am like some other users who report that their photos went missing also when this service was launched as I did this a few months ago. Apologies for my lack of knowledge here!!!

  • How do I get my photos down from iCloud on my new 4s? Does it take a few days or something?

    I replaced my broken iPhone 4S with a new one. How do I get my photos down from iCloud? Only a few of them have come down. The stream is on and I am connected to wifi so I don't know what the problem is?

    Michael and wjosten!
    Just thought I'd let you know what happened in the end with my iCloud issues, solved at tekserve:
    When I took my phone to the Verizon store to pick up my new phone, she must have chosen the option "Set up as a new phone" rather than "restore phone from iCloud backup" or whatever. and then I went ahead and set up my phone, not knowing that was ever an option since SHE did it. So i ended up restoring my new phone to factory settings, choosing the OTHER option of restoring it from the iCloud backup i had done, and now I have everything back as it was, in perfect harmony:)
    Thanks for both of your help.
    Additional question: I usually charge my phone up, and let it run down to about 2%-5% before i recharge it all the way up again. But if i have to run, I may take it out of the charger when its not fully 100%. When I am able to stick it back and charge again, is it better to just NOT and let it run down again? or get it back up to 100% if i have the time?

  • How do I get my photos back from my iPhone that's been stolen

    I lost my iPhone 5 not all my pics on there saved to photo stream I've blocked the phone but wanted to know how I get my photos from my phone back threw iCloud

    You can't get them back from iCloud. Unless you imported the photos to your computer or unless you backed up all of the photos in iCloud and you have another iOS device from which you can restore the phone backup - you can't recover the photos. iCloud is not for storage of files, photos and data that you can selectively download to your computer or iOS device. iCloud is for backups of your devices.

  • How do I get my photos back from the cloud

    How can I get my photo's back from I cloud

    Many users have lost photos while preforming a restore from backup, upgrading the iOS, or using the wrong itunes for syncing (which is your situation).  If you haven't synced them to YOUR computer, then they are gone (unless you have backups to icloud turned on - but that isn't completely reliable; many users have lost their photos doing a restore from an icloud backup).
    IMPORTANT...
    Photos should be regularly synced to a computer (like you store photos from a digital camera) using either USB via iTunes (on a mac use iPhoto or Aperture to move them to an album) or using photo stream.  If you have been doing that, then you can sync those photos back to your device.

  • How do I get my photo's from iCloud onto my iTouch

    Recently i have been having a lot of problems with my iTouch 4th gen running iOS 5.1.1. This has made me back up multiple times to my computer which has somehow lost all of my photos on my ipod but when I go to the icloud menu in the settings app it shows that they are in the cloud. How do I get my photos from my iCloud account to my ipods camera roll or photo album? Oh yeah, one more thing. My only apple devices are my ipod touch and my ipod nano. Please help, thank you!

    You sync them via itunes.

  • How do I get my photos back from iPhoto?

    I updated my MacBook Pro but it froze half way through installing so I turned the MacBook off, when it came back on I had a problem with the software and had to install it properly again. Doing that caused me to loose all my files originally on the laptop, i had to set it up like a brand new.
    All my photos were stored on my iPhoto but when I downloaded the app and opened it up none of my photos I had were there. Is there any way to get all my photos back at all? There's a lot of photos I've lost because of the update freezing on my MacBook.

    If you backed it up with Time Machine, click here and follow the instructions.
    If you backed it up by creating a bootable clone, open the Pictures folder of your home folder on the clone and drag the library back.
    If you backed it up by drag-copying, proceed as if it was a bootable clone, except that the path may be different.
    If you backed it up in another way, check the product's documentation.

  • How can I get my photos back from a previous IPhoto?

    I have an Macbook OS X.  I turned on my computer this morning and I went to Iphoto only to discover that all of my photos are gone.  First, I was prompted to choose a new library as 'no iphoto library was found' and wound up with what looks like a brand new version of Iphoto only all of my photos and events were wiped clean.  They seem to have just dissapeared.  I have the Time Machine app-although when I went to open it I found that I had to turn it on and then after that I had to scan for an airport device to use the 'Time Capsule'.  I don't have an external hard drive e.i. Time Capsule..never knew I needed that extra step to use Time Machine.  Otherwise, the airport device is not found.  It keeps asking me to rescan.
    I just want my photos back.  I even did the search in my HD drive and none of my pictures were there either.  I tried opening Iphoto with the option+control button to restore and find orphaned files.  It just reopens and restores the latest iPhoto-the one that has nothing in it.
    Someone please help me.  My photos have to be somewhere- I didn't manually choose to delete them so where can they be?

    Sounds like you have inadvertenly deleted your Library, I'm afriad. And as you don't have a back up you're into expensive file recovery software.
    File Salvage will scan your disk and tell you what may be recoverable before you have to pay. Actual recovery will require  purchase.

  • How do i get my stuff back from icloud. only part loaded to my new phone

    I backed up my Iphone4 before it was switched to a new one by the Apple Store.  My new phone uploaded, but it appears not all of my pictures from Icloud loaded on my new phone.  I did not go over my storage space.  I believe the upload was interupted and that may have cause the remaining items to load.  How do i go out and get the rest of my pics.  I can tell that last pic loaded was May2013.  No pics since then are there.

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    Camera roll photos may take a while to repopulate your new phone, are you sure you have given it long enough.

  • How do you get your documents back from iCloud?

    This has happened twice so far, the documents that I had in pages have move to iCloud and I don't know how to get them back

    Assuming that you are using Pages 5.0, open the document from iCloud then select "File" "Move To...". Use the pull down menu at the top of the resulting dialogue box to specify where you want the file saved on your Mac.
    If you are trying to save it on your iPad2 I don't think it is possible.
