How do i get pics back on my phone from the cloud?

Had to do factory reset after upgrading to lollipop. Now i need to get my pics back from the cloud to my phone. Could someone help?

If the photos were in your camera roll when you last backed up, restoring the backup should recover them.  Restoring an iCloud backup requires first erasing your phone.  If you have any newer data on your phone since the backup that you want to keep, you'll need to save that first.  Then go to Settings>General>Reset, tap Erase All Content and Settings, go through the setup screens on the phone and when given the option, choose Restore from iCloud Backup.  Sign into your iCloud account and choose your last backup to restore to.
Make sure you phone is connected to wifi and your charger as this may take some time to finish.

    IF you have successfully imported your pictures to your Mac http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083  then it's safe to delete it from your phone.
    If you want the pics back on your phone, just sync them back using itunes http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4236

  • I have just updated to iOS7, no icon for browser, was using Safari, how do I get it back and can I reverse the upgrade and go back to iOS6?

    I have just updated to iOS7, no icon for browser, was using Safari, how do I get it back and can I reverse the upgrade and go back to iOS6?  Thanks to you from the UnTechie

    The icon for Safari has probably moved to make room for new apps. Scroll the Home screen to look for it.
    You cannot reverse the upgrade.

  • HT1848 I purchased alert tones in itunes and updated my itunes.  Now my alert tones do not show up, although if I were to go re-purchased those items, it says I already purchased them.  Where do I find those tones and how do I get them back into my phone?

    I purchased many alert tones in itunes and then updated my itunes.  Now my alert tones do not show up, although if I were to go re-purchase those items, itunes says I already purchased them.  Where do I find those tones and how do I get them back into my phone without having to repurchase????  This is so frustrating!  Please Help!

    1. iTunes won't offer cloud downloads for songs that it "thinks" are in your library, even if it "knows" the files are missing. If you've exhaustively searched for the missing files and there is no prospect of repair by restoring to them to their original locations, or connecting to new ones, then delete that tracks that display both the missing exclamation mark and are of media kind Purchased/Protected AAC audio file. Don't hide from iTunes in the cloud when asked, close iTunes, then reopen. You can download from the cloud links or iTunes Store > Quicklinks > Purchased > Music > Not on this computer > All songs > Download all.
    2. Why? Not sure, perhaps 3rd party tools or accidental key presses combined with previously hidden warning messages when trying to organize the library. There is a hint that using the feature to downsample media as it is synced to a device may also be involved, though I've not replicated it. Whatever the reason a backup would protect your media.

    Hi, I have just tried to sync my iphone with my computer. I must have clicked the wrong thing, now all the songs i purchased through my phone from itunes were replaced with the itunes that was on my computer, which is nothing. Any ideas on how can i get them back onto my phone or computer? I can see them in the itunes store under purchases, but there are no options for me to download them again.

  • Hi i have a new computer how do i get my back up i tunes onto the new computer ?

    i have a new computer how do i get my back up music on to the new computer

    Backup to what? If you have the old computer and don't have a backup then I suggest doing so, not just for this situation but it's a good idea in general to have important data backed up.

  • I've update my phone and lost music.  How can I get them back on my phone

    I updated my phone and lost my apps and music.  Now even when I sync they aren't going back on.  How do I get them back onto my phone?

    go to ITUNES on your phone, select MORE, PURCHASED, MUSIC
    Then you should be able to download them again

  • I lost all my music on my iphone how can i get it back on my phone

    i payed for all this songs,i lost it through upgrade,how can i get it back to my phone

    joephilipose,
    If the contacts are still in Address Book on your computer, but just not on the phone, you can tell iTunes to force replace the contacts on your phone with those from your computer. You can do this by going into the Info tab when your iPhone is connected, and checking the Contacts box under the Advanced section at the bottom of the page.
    You may also want to backup your Address Book information as well. It's a good idea to make periodic backups of your contact and calendar information in case information accidentally gets deleted or changed. You can find out how to backup your Address Book data here:

    To backup your iCal information, follow the steps in this article:

    Hope this helps,

  • I have lost my notes on my i-phone, but I have stored them i i-cloud. How do I get them back on my phone?

    I have lost my notes on my i-phone, but I have stored them in i-cloud.
    How do I get them back on my phone?????

    If this happened without you doing anything you might give it some time to see if they reappear, in case it's just a server glitch.  Otherwise, you may be able to recover them from your iCloud backup by following Winston Churchill's post here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/22600445#22600445.  This is a bit tedious but does work.

    I have deleted all my photos off iPhone but can still view them on appletv . How do I get them back on my phone?

    If you have deleted all the photos from your iPhone you can't get them back.  The only place they might exist is if you backed them up to iPhoto if you have a Mac.  If you have iCloud and Photo Steam enabled, then the last 100 photos would be saved in your Photo Stream.

  • My desktop with iTunes crashed, how do i get my music on my phone to the new Itunes on my laptop?

    Have you not got a backup of your content on external drives and/or CDs/DVD ? If so then you can copy that onto the computer and load them into iTunes. Have you tried doing File > Transfer Purchases in iTunes with the phone connected to see if any of you purchases transfer over ? If you are in the US then you should also be able to re-download past music purchases : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
    If you havn't bothered backing up your content then you could see if any of the utilities mentioned on this old post still exist and work : https://discussions.apple.com/message/11014893?messageID=11014893#11014893

  • How can I get my books that I download from the Library that are WMA files into my I tunes so I can listen to them

    How can I get my books that I download from the Library that are WMA files into my I tunes so I can listen to them. They have a ton of books but I can only listen to them from my windows media player and I wouldlove to download to my I pod but I have tried everything I can think of it they won't go over.  Someone said all I had to do was copy them over and they would convert but I can't even get them to copy.  Thanks.

    Well it started happening AGAIN with my 2nd IPod. No matter what I did, it Itunes would NOT restore it!
    I finally installed Itunes on my hubby's PC at work and managed to get it restored there.
    Apparently, there must be some sort of compatibility issue with the windows version of Itunes and some other piece of software on my pc.
    And one more important thing! I had to follow the instructions in the other thread that talks about how to correctly uninstall itunes and quicktime, in order to completely eliminate ALL traces of my "first" ipod's existence so it wouldn't demand that I restore it.
    I think the software got "confused" and thought when I connected my 2nd ipod, that it was the 1st and that it still needed to be restored.
    Basically, this is just POORLY written and POORLY tested software!
