How to recover photo stream pictures?

My photo stream album disappeared. I think it happened when I enabled the "iCloud Photo Library (beta)". I thought it was suppose to upload the photo stream album to iCloud but instead it just deleted it without ever asking me if I wanted them to be deleted. Does anyone know what happened? Or how to recover them? They do not show up in "recently deleted album" because I never actually deleted them
Ive tried 3rd party software but no luck. Since half of the pics in the photo stream album were not in the regular pictures album and not on the hard drive they cannot be found. When I went to the iCloud website there were only 97 pictures and not the 1000 pics that were originally in the photo stream album.
My phone has never been backed up to iTunes so that is no help
If these pictures are not on my phone or iCloud, where can they be and is it possible to get them back?

How do I get back my photo stream pictures which I accidently deleted

how do I get back my photo stream pictures which I accidently deleted? I cant remember whether I have back up or not.

If they aren't in Photos>Photo Stream, then they are deleted and cannot be recovered. Try restoring from a recent backup that has those photos.

How can I save my photo stream pictures?

So, Apple in it's infinate wisdom has nearly ruined my honeymoon and I'm at my wits end to save what is left of my digital archive of the trip. How on earth can I SAVE my photo stream pictures OFF of an iDevice?? I have 210 pictures that I desperately need to save onto my computer and the only place they exist at the moment is inside the photostream.
Not that it matters, but let me vent... the reason they only exist is in the photo stream is because of Apple's under-prepared servers for iOS5 deployment and a glitch in iTunes that wiped my phone immediately as I plugged it in today (no sync, no confirm, just plug, beep, and then a wiped phone in under 5 seconds).
I lost all of my phone content, which luckilly I'm an exchange user so the most important stuff is always duplicated off the device. But my pictures and video from my week long honeymoon were on my phone and while SOME of them did sync to iCloud, not all of them did (still don't know why THAT is - but that's the next mission) and NONE of my videos were in the cloud. On top of that, no backup has been done by iCloud in over a week even though I have been on wifi and charging several nights on the trip, and all last night once I got home. No backup. Wiped phone. *** Apple.
Where I stand right now is a photo stream full of pictures that I want to save and cannot seem to get to. First thought was that since iCloud is a cloud based service I bet I can log into a web site and see all of my content an save it from there. Nope. This is Apple so of course that option would make too much sense. All I can do from the web portal is look at pretty icons and delete my pictures. I can't even browse them, much less save them. Again, ***.
So next on my now restored phone (from a week old backup) I can see my photo stream and a nice little save button exists. Good, that'll save it to the camera roll and I can copy them off like the other pictures. Nope. I select some pictures, click save, and nothing happens. I select 20 or so pictures, click save, and 2 pictures show up in my camera roll?? Again, *** Apple.
So there is also an option to add the pictures to a new album. Ok, here we go. Select all 210 pictures, add to a new album, and yes it makes a new album. Now to save that album off to my PC... NOPE. The album is nowhere to be found in the file system (where the camera roll pictures live).
Ok, so at least I can now back up my phone so I know that these pictures won't just fall off the iCloud in 30 days. Backup goes fine... and is 30M in size. Son of a...! There is no way that backup includes all those pictures.
I installed the Windows iCloud manager - that sounds like it would let you MANAGE your iCloud content, but nope. You can manage your payment info, and have it stream NEW photos to you, but you cannot get to your existing photos! One last time Apple... W T F.
How can I retrieve photos that are in my photo stream?

Welcome to the Apple community.
Yes you can do that, select the rectangle with the arrow in it, in the top right hand corner of your photo stream screen and select the pictures you wish to save to your camera roll then tap the save button at the bottom of the screen and choose camera roll from the options that appear.

If the camera roll photos were on your device when you last backed it up, restoring the backup should recover them. Deleted photo stream photos can't be recovered unless they were also in the camera roll.

How do i upload the photo stream pictures on my iphone to my pc

hi
i have successfully uploaded some photos from my Iphone to my pc
but find that the photo stream pictures were not included
is there a way to upload this batch ?

You have iCloud control panel installed on your PC and you're signed in? If so, sign out, restart the machine, then sign back in.

Time Capsule gathering Photo Stream pictures?

Is there a way to make Time Capsule gathering Photo Stream pictures, instead using Mac or PC for this task?
Managing (a fast growing amount of) pictures on the iPhone (/iPad) is a big "pain in the ***" today...
Here is what I am looking for as a perfect solution for this challenge:
1. You can configure Time Capsule in a way that it gets automatically all iPhone (/iPad) pictures via Photo Stream, and stores them permanently (like a Mac does today via iPhoto)
2. You can mark selected pictures on the iphone as "store permanent on the iPhone" (favorites like childrens pictures etc.)
3. You can select a time frame when pictures are deleted automatically on the iPhone (of course deleted only when they had been stored permanently on Time Capsule)
4. You can select how many pictures should be stored (via Photo Stream) on your iPhone
5. You can access ALL pictures on Time Capsule directly from the iPhone. (The overview about pictures would work with thumbnails to reduce required storage for the preview; selected pictures can then be downloaded. For the download you can select a reduced resolution of the picture to save download capacity)
6. Option to backup pictures on an external harddisk and/or online storage

I'm not sure where to move the photos--in a seperate photo file or directly into iphoto.
This is really a question for the iPhoto support forum, but since I have done this, it might help to know that the iPhoto Library is stored in your Pictures folder on the Mac.
Click the Finder icon at the far left of the dock at the bottom the screen to locate the Pictures folder.
When you open iPhoto for the first time, you may need to "point" iPhoto at the iPhoto Library by holding down the option key as you open iPhoto.
Please post in the iPhoto support area on specific iPhoto questions.

How to recover photos from stolen iphone?

You might be able to recover any photos that were in an iCloud Photo Stream if you had an iCloud account and used Photo Stream. But without a backup of your library or MB hard drive you won't be able to recover any of the iPhoto Library photos as Jim has already pointed out.

How to recover deleted the pictures

How to recover deleted the pictures. When you change the software iOS6 iOS7 I deleted all the pictures myself and can not leave them back in iTunes

If you're still in the book mode you can try using the Undo command: Command+Z. If you're left the book mode I'm not sure you can use it.
If you have TM copy of the library just before you deleted the photos from the pages bring that entire library back. It will have the book in it. To do so go to you Pictures folder and then enter Time Machine. Go back to the time just before the deletion took place, select the library and restore.

How to Recover a Dark Picture with a Heavy Color Cast

I just posted this article about how to recover a dark picture with a heavy
color cast using Lab Color mode in Photoshop. I hope it will be helpful to
others.

None taken. I am unfamiliar with ACR and would love to see (compare) what it
could do with the sample PNG file in the article, and how much time it took.
The results I achieved in the article took only a few minutes to
complete--though as I mention below, it took more than a few minutes to get
to the point where I could do it in a few minutes.
I happened across a web site one day discussing the techniques in Margulis'
LAB Color book, which interested me enough to purchase it. I found the book
very enlightening and have seen incredible results using the techniques he
describes as applied to my various images. I've also ready his Professional
Photoshop book which focuses more on CMYK, and found many techniques in
there just as enlightening.
Ultimately the tools and techniques used are irrelevant if you get the
results you want... but if you find one that works faster, easier or better,
then certainly you should employ it.
I have no problem working in RGB, CMYK or LAB and find benefits from each.
The particular sample image I used in the article was one that I've spent
(too much) time cleaning up in various ways and in various color spaces (or
combinations thereof). It became my "poster child" image to work on as I
continue to build my Photoshop skills. The approach I used in the article
was the one I found most to be the fasted with the most effective results.
The original was a 6MP JPG file. I reduced it to the size in the article and
then worked on that size for the remaineder of the article. The resutls are
equivelant in the fullsize file.

Photo Sharing in ios 6 shows all my photo streaming pictures

I decided to test the photo sharing feature in ios 6. I created an album and sent it to myself and was horrified to see that not only could I access the test album, but ALL my photo streamed pictures were available for viewing. I created another album, sent it to a gmail email account I have and had other same issue. Next, I created a third album and send the "public sharing" link to myself: it didn't show the third album but rather the previously created second photo stream album, even though I had already deleted it.
I never had this problem with MobileMe.
ANy suggestions?

I just did the same upgrade with my 3GS. I am having a similar problem. My contacts are on the phone now, but my music and apps are not. When I try to restore the back up this is the message I get: itunes could not restore the iphone because a session could not be started.
I see my my music and apps in my itunes library, but if I try to autofill it to my phone I get this message: itunes cannot add any songs to the iphone because no songs in library can be copied to the iphone.
Can you help?

How to recover photos from a usb key to put on ipad

how to recover photos from a usb key to put on ipad

What do you mean 'how to recover' ? If you want to copy the photos from the USB drive to your iPad then you can try using the camera connection kit, but a lot of USB drives require more power than is supplied to the kit and the photos need to be in a particular format : you need to create a DCIM directory off the root of the drive with the photos underneath it, and the photo filenames need to be exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension i.e. in a similar format as if a camera had created/written them
