How do I store all my old photos from my pc to iCloud?

I'm just transitioning to Apple products from a PC. I have an iPhone and have purchased extra space in iCloud. How do I move all my old photos from my PC to iCloud? I can't seem to find instuctions anywhere.

iCloud will only store photos for 30 days, after which they are deleted. This is to give other devices enough time to download your photos.

This usually happens because iCloud only keeps photo stream photos for 30 days (even though your last 1000 photos will remain on your phone until deleted). When you enabled photo stream on your Mac you only received photo stream photos from the last 30 days.
To get older photos to your Mac, create a shared photo stream containing them and invite yourself as a subscriber (see http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mmc0cd7e99). The be sure you check Shared Photo Streams in iPhoto>Preferences>Photo Stream. You can then import them to your iPhoto library by opening the shared photo stream album in iPhoto, then going to Edit>Select All, Control-clicking on any of the selected photos and selecting Import.

I have a 5s phone. How do I download ALL of the photos from my phone? When I downloaded all of them, just the photos on Camera Roll were downloaded. The photos in the folders were still there. Any help will be appreciated. Rosemary

HT201317 Accidently turn off the photo stream on my iPhone. How do I recover all my old photos in the photo stream?

I accidently the. Off photo stream and then when I turn it back on all the old photos were gone. How can I recover my all the previous photos?

iCloud only keeps photo stream photos for 30 days, even though a rolling collecting of up to 1000 photos will stay on your devices until deleted (such as by turning off photo stream). These photos can't be recovered because they are no longer in iCloud. If they were in your camera roll when you last backed up, restoring the backup should recover them; otherwise there gone.
In the future, to save them permanently, be sure to import them to your computer while they are still in the camera roll as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083. If they aren't in the camera roll, save them to the camera roll by tapping Edit, tap the photos, tap Share, tap Save to Camera Roll. Then they can be imported to your computer.

I have all my old photos from my PC on a Maxtor external hard drive. How can I transfer them from this to my Macbook Air?

I'd like to transfer my old photos from my PC which are stored on a Maxtor external hard drive to my Macbook Air. Is there an easy way of doing this? I don't know if the Maxtor hard drive is Windows specific or if it's compatible with Mac. Anyone know?

It should be fairly simple. The Maxtor should be recognized as "read only" since it's formatted for windows. Connect it and in iPhoto select, iPhoto > File > Import to Library.. > Point to your external hd.

How do I delete all of my photos from my "photo library,""iPhone,""My Snap

Please help! I have too many photos and while I have managed to download my "camera roll" photos to my PC, my photo library & iPhone still have 6052 pictures!! I already have all of these photos on my PC and they are on a back up as well. I just need to know how to delete them from my iphone so I have some storage room for apps and music.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND ANSWER(S). I SINCERELY APPRECIATE IT!

The phone has to be plugged in. Across the top of the iTunes once you have selected the device are Summary, Info, Apps, Ringtones, Music, Movies, TV Shows, Podcasts, iTunes U, Books and the last one is photos. On that tab remove the checkmark next to Sync Photos from: If you cannot see this on your screen, your screen resolution may be too low. You will need to increase the resolution so you can see it. I don't use Mac, so I'm not sure what you will need to do, but that is where you should find it.

How do i transfer all my old data from my old computer to my new one?

I recently purchased a new computer and have all my iPod data on that computer but now want all that data removed from that computer and put on this one. Is this possible? If so can you tell me how to do it. I own an iPod Mini

Your best bet is probably to use your iPod Mini in disk more to move all the files from one computer to another. This article can show you how:

HT4859 How do I restore all apps and photos from I cloud on to a new iPhone

I can't find away to restore all my iPhone data for my iPhone. How do you download all my data???

Restore to your iCloud backup when given the option when you set up the phone. If it's already set up, go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Erase All Content and Settings. Then go through the setup screens on your phone and given the option, choose Restore from iCloud Backup (see image below). Be sure you are connected to wifi and your charger as this will take some time to finish.

How do I get all of my photos from my photo stream to upload to my MacBook Pro?

When I connect my iPhone 4 to my MacBook Pro only about half of the photos on my photo stream sync into iPhoto. How do I get the photos that don't sync to sync onto the computer?

http://www.digitaltrends.com/computing/how-to-access-your-icloud-photo-stream-fr om-your-mac/
Before you can access your Photo Stream on your Mac, you’ll need to have it turned on through your iOS device. Once you do, each photo will be automatically uploaded to your Photo Stream, and remain there for 30 days (or until you’ve reached the 1,000-picture limit, at which point the oldest ones will be replaced with newer photos).
To enable Photo Stream on your iOS device, navigate to the main settings panel and select the iCloud option. Then, tap Photos near the top of the resulting menu and toggle on the My Photo Stream option in the middle to enable the feature.
Access My Photo Stream using iPhoto
The absolute simplest way to access your Photo Stream photos is through Apple’s iPhoto. The exact process may vary depending on which version of iPhoto you’re currently running, but the directions below should still work with most incarnations of the native software.
Step 1: Launch iPhoto as you would normally, click iPhoto in the left corner of the application taskbar, and select Preferences from the resulting drop-down menu. Afterward, navigate to the iCloud tab within navigation bar and check the box directly left of My Photo Stream.
Step 2: Click iCloud in the Source List located on the left side of the application window and select the Use iCloud option. Doing so will allow any new photos that you import into iPhoto to be uploaded to iCloud and added to My Photo Stream. Moreover, any photos added to My Photo Stream via your iOS device will automatically be imported into your iPhoto library. Keep in mind disabling Photo Stream on iPhoto will automatically remove access to these photos through iPhoto — though, you can re-add your Photo Stream at anytime.
Access My Photo Stream using a saved Smart Folder
If you’re not a fan of iPhoto, fear not: There is another, slightly more complicated (but still totally easy), way to access your Photo Stream from your Mac.
Step 1: Open Finder.
Step 2: Click “command,” “shift,” and “G” (⌘⇧G) all at the same time, which will bring up the “Go to folder” option in Finder.
Step 3: Paste the following text into the “Go to folder” field: ~/Library/Application Support/iLifeAssetManagement/assets/sub. Hit “Enter.
Step 4: Click “command” and “F” (⌘F) together to bring up a new search interface.
Step 5: At the top-left of the window, you should see two options after the word “Search”: “This Mac” and “sub.” Click “sub” to highlight it.
Step 6: Underneath that line, you’ll see the word “Kind.” Leave that be. But in the next drop-down menu, change the type to “Image.” Another drop-down menu will appear. Change that one to “JPEG.” Now all your Photo Stream images will show up in the window. (There will probably be some other pictures in there as well. You can tell Photo Stream images because they will have a green check mark on the thumbnail.)
Step 7: Finally, click the “Save” button on the right side, and name the Smart Folder whatever you like. (We’d go with “Photo Stream,” for simplicity’s sake.) Leave the “Add to sidebar” box checked for easy access in the Finder window. And you’re done!

How do i transfer all my old stuff from g4 to my new macbook pro

Hi there,
All my itunes songs, gigabytes of pics and all my other info is still on my old g4, it does have ethernet. I want to get all my stuff onto my new mac book pro which will be here in a week or so. obviously without using rw-cds if i can help it!!!!!!!
expert needed!
please advise!!!!!

Here's how:
Get a Firewire cable. With both computers turned off connect the two with the Firewire cable. Boot the PB into Target Disk Mode. After the TDM screen appears on the PB boot the MBP normally. The PB's hard drive should appear on the MBP's Desktop. You can then transfer the needed files using Drag and Drop.
Here is a list of where your important data is stored ("~" stands for "Home"):
In your Home folder copy the contents of Documents, Movies, Music, Pictures, and Sites.
In your ~/Library/ folder:
~/Library/Application Support/AddressBook (copy the whole folder)
~/Library/Application Support/iCal (copy the whole folder)
Also in ~/Library/Application Support (copy whatever else you need)
~/Library/Keychains (copy the whole folder)
~/Library/Mail (copy the whole folder)
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist (* This is a very important file which contains all email account settings and general mail preferences.)
~ /Library/iTunes (copy the whole folder)
~ /Library/Safari (copy the whole folder)
If you want cookies:
~/Library/Cookies/Cookies.plist
~/Library/Application Support/WebFoundation/HTTPCookies.plist
For Entourage users:
Entourage is in ~/Documents/Microsoft User Data
Also in ~/Library/Preferences/Microsoft
