How do I retrieve my photos to iPad from iCloud

Lost in the cloud, are the?  If not, how do I download them to my iPad?  Thanks.

Firstly, I assume you are referring to Photostream.
My webpage here might help you understand the various ways photos can be saved on your device and some of the advantages and disadvantages associated with each method.
Photostream in the cloud only keeps photos from the last 30 days (subject to a 1,000 photo limit). When photostream syncs the photos to your device they will stay there (subject to a 1,000 photo limit) until deleted, which means you may well have more photos in your photostream album on your device than there are in photostream in the cloud.
The consequence of this is that if you turn photostream off and on again on your device (or enable it for the first time), it will only be populated with photos from the last 30 days, which may not be all the photos that were previously in the photostream album on that device.

  • My iPhone 5S drowned in a rainstorm. How can I retrieve contacts and text messages from iCloud backup onto my iPad mini?

    My iPhone 5S drowned in a rainstorm. How can I retrieve contacts and text messages from iCloud backup onto my iPad mini? There are some contacts on the iPad already but nowhere near all of them. I need to re-enter the contacts manually into an iPhone 4 as it does not support iOS 8.

    Let me get this straight.....You lost your phone.  You never backed it up, either to your computer or to a cloud service.
    How in the world would you expect to get data back?

  • How can I delete my photos in streaming from iCloud?

    How can I delete my photos in streaming from iCloud? Thank you.

    Look, there are a million threads on this already. 
    The facts are:
    1) you can't delete individuals photos from Photostream. Simple as that.
    2) if you want to delete all the photos, then switch PS off on all your devices (including iPhoto), go to iCloud.com, click on your name, go to advanced settings and reset PS.  They will be gone from all your devices and iCloud.
    3) switch PS back on in all the same devices.
    Let's hope this is sorted out in the near future.

  • TS4009 how do I retrieve an old back up from icloud on my new phone

    how do I retrieve from a past icloud back up

    Apple states that it keeps up to your most recent 3 backups (space permitting in your account).  If you're backing up daily, this would only go back a couple of days.  You won't know if an earlier backup is available until you attempt to back up to iCloud.  When you do, you are shown a list of available backups to restore from.  If you have older backups, you access those by tapping "Show older backups..." (see image below).  If you don't see this, you don't have any older backups available.

  • How can I retrieve specific bits of data from iCloud?

    Some of my notes that I have saved before were deleted and so I want to retrieve them from an iCloud backup that was saved a week ago. Is there any way to retrieve specific bits of data like this from iCloud?

    Is there absolutely any way I can get the information back at all, even calling an Apple tech guy could maybe help to solve this problem since my info was stored in iCloud.

  • How to only transfer some photos to ipad from mac

    I only want to take some the photo off my mac and put them on the ipad how is that done?

    If you are on iTunes 11 on your Mac then you may want to re-enable the left-hand sidebar via View > Show Sidebar (option-command-S on a Mac), which might make it easier to navigate and my instructions may make more sense.
    To sync photos, connect and select your iPad on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes, and on the right-hand side there should be a series of tabs, one of which should be Photos - if you select that tab you can then select which photo folders/albums to sync to the iPad. There is a bit more info on this page. You will need to sync all the photos that you want on the iPad together in one go as only the most recent photo sync remains on the iPad - synced photos can't be deleted directly on the iPad, instead they are deleted by not including them in the next photo sync.

  • How do I retrieve and view text messages from icloud

    How can I view and retrieve text messages from my ICloud?

    Apple provides functionality in the backup done via iTunes to backup the device and text messages.  There is no functionality to view the text messages on the computer.
    About iOS backups
    Other programs are available which can extract text messages from the device or the iTunes created backup and then be viewed on the computer.  To my knowledge, no program exists which can force backed up text messages into the device once they've been removed.
    Google is your friend when looking for 3rd party software related to text messages.

  • How can I retrieve my text messages only from iCloud?

    I was deleting text messages on my phone but I accidently erased one that I wanted to keep. How do I get it back without having to do the full backup?

    You would have to restore your entire backup.  You can't just restore the text messages.

    how can i retrieve my photos from i cloud ?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    Photo stream is not available at iCloud.com. In order to see the photos taken on your new iPad, you need to use another iOS device, mac or PC which is logged into your iCloud account.

    How do I reorganize my photos on iPad 2?  I need to move (not copy) photos from one album to another.  When I use the copy function to another album, and then try to delete an image from the original album, the system wants to delete the photos from all albums.  Please help.

    You can't do it directly on the iPad - the new album functionality basically only allows you to copy photos into those new albums, you can't move them. The way that I think of it as working is that you are just creating pointers to the photos in those new albums, so if you then delete the original photo on the iPad you therefore automatically delete all the pointers to it.
    If you want to re-organise your albums then you will need to do it on your computer and then sync those albums over to the iPad

  • HT4859 How do I retrieve my photos from the cloud after a reset. My photos are gone from my phone, and I backed them up on iCloud?

    How do I retrieve my photos from the cloud after a reset. My photos are gone from my phone, and I backed them up on iCloud? when I restored it, no camera roll pictures?

    Try restoring the backup again.  Sometimes it's successful the second time.  You could also try restoring an older backup.  iCloud will have your last 3 backups is you have sufficient storage space in your account.
