How do I retrieve my photos?

Hello,
Yesterday I had to have my iPhone 4s replaced, the Lock button was stuck. The Mac Genius did a back up for me on iCloud and said everything except some of the songs in itunes will transfer over (the ones that I tranfered from CD's and such). The thing is my photos and videos are no where to be found . Is there something that I did wrong, How can I get them back onto my iPhone?
Any help will be greatly appreciated
Thanks in advanced

Make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Select the options identified in the screenshot. 
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.
If that doesn't help go to your Pictures folder and enter Time Machine.  Then go back to a date when all of your photos would be present in the library.  Select the iPhoto Library and click on the Restore button.

    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.

    how do I retrieve my photo shop elements 10 photos?   

    Photoshop Elements never stores the photos just links to them. They will be in the same location on your disk that they always were.
    If you are looking for photos on photoshop.com, Adobe shut this down last year. Compatible photos will have been transferred to a Revel account for you with the same ID and password - https://www.adoberevel.com/signin. Note though that PSE10 does not integrate with Revel like it did with photoshop.com.

    Install the excellent 'Search Everything' utility and enter 'extreme' as a search term. Note that when you first run 'Everything' it takes time to index your drive(s). After that though it is a nearly instantaneous start.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Navigate to Settings > General > Software Update and install any updates available.
    Navigate to Settings > General > Reset > Erase all contents and settings on the device you want to restore.
    When this completes and the Set-Up Assistant starts, choose "Restore from iCloud Backup" and enter your iCloud account and password. You will see the three most recent backups for each of the devices on which you enabled Backup. Choose which backup to restore from.

    how can i retrieve my photos from icloud

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Photos in photo stream...
    You can log into your iCloud account on another computer or device and enable photo stream to see your photos. You should do this as soon as possible because photo stream in the cloud only keeps photos for 30 days and each day you delay, you will lose another days photos.
    Photos in the camera roll...
    If you kept a back up of your device you can use it to restore to a replacement device, this will restore all of the photos in your camera roll and isn't time limited.

    Restore your iPhone from the last backup you made before you deleted the photos from the iPhone. An iCloud backup (or an iTunes backup) saves the content of the camera roll.

    how do i retrieve my photos from my iphone 4s after it was syc with my apple laptop

    Photos transferred from your computer via the iTunes sync process remain on your computer.
    Photos in the Camera Roll can be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera which is not done with iTunes. With a Mac, this can be done with iPhoto or with the Image Capture application.
