How to access the photos on an iPhone iCloud back up

I have made an iCloud backup of my iPhone and I should have the photos sync'd with the cloud.  I do not now have an iOS device to load up from the back up so is it possible to find the photos stored within the back up and download them to my desktop.
Thanks in advance

Backup in icloud is image file of your personal information that is inaccessible to you besides option to restore to another ios device.

    There isn't really a way to "save" photos to iCloud currently with non-beta software.
    iCloud is involved with photos in 2 ways -- backup and Photo Stream.
    Backup of an iOS device includes Camera Roll photos but they cannot be viewed at iCloud.com -- the backup can only be used when doing a restore of an iOS device.
    Photo Stream photos also cannot be viewed at iCloud.com; Photo Stream is designed as a method of transferring photos from one device to another and is not designed to store the photos. More info http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4486
    There is a new feature -- "iCloud Photo Library" -- coming sometime after the iOS 8 release next week: http://www.macrumors.com/2014/09/12/apple-demotes-icloud-photo-library-beta/

  • Can I access the photos on my iPhone directly in the OSX Lion Finder

    If I have a hundred or so photos on my iPhone that I'd like to delete, its a real pain to have to select them all one by one then delete them.
    The problem is even worse on the iPad where I recently backed up 1,100 photos from my camera ( a seemingly ideal application for the iPad) in about 30 events.  You can't simply select an event and delete it.  You have to manually select each individual photo, then delete the selected photos.
    If I could access the photos in the Lion Finder, I could SelectAll, then delete them.
    I understood that there were application that could do this, but they don't run on Lion.

    Your productname may be iPhone, but this forumname is iWeb.
    The iPhone forum is probably a better place to ask.
    This is the best positive response I can think of.

  • How can I recover photos from old iphone icloud backup to new one?

    Hello, I had an iPhone 4 which I lost and inside there were some great photos that I want now to recover. In the meanwhile I bought an iPhone5S and I just realized that inside the iCloud backup menu is saying that there is a backup of 3GB of my old iPhone. How can I see if in that backup the photos are there? I have connected my iPhoto App to iCloud but it only finds photos from my new iPhone and not the old one...
    Thanks for your time.

    Hi, Tiago, maybe you can get help from data recovery software. Now things get easy now.
    As far as I know, there are three ways to recover deleted contacts and photos from iPhone 5 with iPhone Data Recovery.
    Way 1: Recover deleted photos from iPhone directly
    Way 2: Using iTunes Backup to recover deleted photos
    Way 3: Using iCloud Backup to recover deleted photos
    You can refer the way 3 of how to recover deleted photos from iPhone to recover photos from  old iPhone iCloud backup.
    Good luck to you.

  • How do I share the Photo Library on my desktop with another User. I have Apoerture set up on my wife's user account but cannot figure out how to access the photo library from her desktop.

    I just got a new IMac. I transferred all the photos from our old PC to the Aperture Library on my User account. My wife is set up as another User. She can access Aperture from her User account but there are no photos in the Library. How can I share or giver her access to the photos so that she can work with them on Aperture from her User account?

    Move the Aperture library to separate disk or disk partition with plenty of space for all your photos. On a separate disk or partition it will be possible to set the "Ignore ownership on this volume" flag. Then two users can write to the same Aperture library without permission problems.
    The procedure is describe here for iPhoto libraries, but this will work for Aperture libraries as well:
    iPhoto: Sharing libraries among multiple users
    If you want to use a drive for your Aperture library, that has been used with a PC, format it for Mac, before you move the Aperture library there. This can be done with Disk Utility.

  • How do i get the photos of my iPhone?

    I don't know how to get the photos off my iphone and put them into iPhoto could anyone pls tell me how to do it?

    With your iPhone connected, launch iPhoto.
    This is for photos that were captured by your iPhone only. Your iPhone should appear in the iPhoto source list under devices.
    Select your iPhone in the source list, and below there is an Import All and Import Selected photos option.

    When I plug my iPhone into the computer it comes up in iTunes but I don't know how to get the photos from my iPhone on to the computer ??

    As the manual explains, pics taken with iphone are imported to your computer the same as from any other digital camera. Itunes has nothing to do with it.

  • HT4859 How do I find and access the photos that are bumped from my iphone to the icloud?

    The photos on my iphone keep disappearing, I think because of the storage limits on the phone.  My understanding was they were being stored "on the cloud," but I can't figure out how to find them.  I have it installed on my iphone 4 and on my PC.  Please tell me they aren't gone forever!  Thanks.

    Re-sync your device to iTunes and uncheck Sync under Photos.

  • I have the iCloud Photo Library (Beta) turned on. The photos from my iPhone do get uploaded to the iCloud. The photos are then downloaded to my wife's iPhone (we share the iCloud account). How do I keep the photos from downloading to my wife's iPhone

    I do not want all the photos from my iPhone downloading to my wife's iPhone from iCloud? We share an iCloud account. How can I prevent the download to my wife's iPhone from iCloud. .The "Upload to My Photo Stream" is turned off on my iPhone. . I am running 8.1.3. 
    I have a related question. In order to same space on my iPhone is there a way to upload the photos to the iCloud and then delete them from my iPhone.

    The way to keep the photos from downloading to your wife's phone would be for her to go to Settings > iCloud > Photos > and turn off iCloud Photo Library. If that isn't an option, the other option would be for her to have her own Apple ID ( and possibly explore the new family sharing options https://www.apple.com/ios/whats-new/family-sharing/ )
    Regarding the "related question" see the quotes below from iCloud Photo Library beta FAQ - Apple Support
    Deleting a photo or video from your Photos app will also remove the item from iCloud Photo Library and from your iCloud storage allocation. Photos and videos you remove can be recovered from the Recently Deleted album for 30 days. After 30 days, your content will be removed from the Recently Deleted album.
    If you want to reduce the space used by photos on your phone, rather than deleting them see the following:
    How does iCloud Photo Library save space on my device?
    If you turn on Optimize [device] Storage, iCloud Photo Library will automatically manage the size of your library on your iOS device, so you can make the most of your device's storage and access more photos than ever. iCloud Photo Library stores the original, high-resolution photos and videos in iCloud and can keep lightweight, device-optimized versions on each of your devices. As long as you have enough storage, recent photos and videos that you access the most will stay on your device at full resolution.
    You can turn on Optimize [device] Storage from Settings > iCloud > Photos or Settings > Photos & Camera > iCloud Photo Library on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. You need an Internet connection to access an original photo or video that’s stored only in iCloud.

    How do you email photos from an iphone to a business email so that the photo shows up as an attachment vs. a part of the body of the email?

    Eric, thanks for the info about the pictures, it worked.   The mail icon is not the one that came with the mac(it looks like a stamp with an eagle) this appears at a notepad with a ruler,paintbrush and pencil.  I can not open it, I did not download it and now I can not turn off the computer with shutdown I have to manually turn if off by pressing the power button.   This can not be normal.  Any suggestions.  thanks,  Ellen

  • How can I transfer photos from an IPhone 5 to an IPad 2 using a cable.  I have tried using the lightning to firewire adapter with my current lead but this only seems to allow a download from the Ipad to the Iphone and not the other way around.

    The devices are not designed for transfer of that kind.  Use Photo Stream as suggested by another poster, or transfer photos to your computer (a good idea anyway since they will be lost if your device needs to be reset), then use iTunes to sync them to the other devices.

  • I cannot figure out how to change the photo size on my iPhone 5s.  I was given the choice of small, medium or large the first time I took a picture.  Now I have no idea how to change it to medium.  Can anyone help?

    I cannot figure out how to change the photo size on my iPhone 5s.  The first time I took a pic it asked if I wanted smalll,  medium or large and listed the pixels.  I chose small but am now finding that is too small.  Can anyone help me set it to medium now?  I can't find any setting for that.  I'm a newby to iPhones and have no idea what I'm doing.  Thanks for any help you can offer.

    By "sending" do you mean sending email?
    If so, what app are you using to take the photos on your iPhone 5? Or are the photos from a different source (saved to your Camera Roll from somewhere else, like a web page or Messages)?
    My guess is that Mail gives you the option to send different file sizes when it detects you are trying to Mail a really large photo file. The size of photos on the iPhone 5 is really big and some email providers may stop your mail from being delivered if attachments are too large. Thus, Mail tries to help you by offering to resize the photo.
    I suspect that if you are sending smaller files, Mail does not bother giving you options to save a smaller version. In fact, I have seen this behavior. So, if the photo is already "small enough", it gets sent as-is.
    To my  knowledge, there is no global iOS setting for this. Some apps may have different rules, of course.
