Jason, is there a way to store the photos into a permanent cloud storage and keep them there? I guess, something like the itunes music, where apple saves all of your music....Thank you for the site, which has helped me considerably to understand what it is all about...Ciao, Jo
Jo, not that I'm aware of as an offering from Apple. While the photo stream can serve that purpose for a finite period of time (it's a rolling 1,000) if you're looking for web/cloud hosting or something similar to the galleries feature that .Mac/MobileMe offered you'll need to seek it elsewhere. The good news, there are numerous cloud storage services out there most of which offer free storage ranging between 2GB and 5GB.
I personally use Dropbox.com for photo galleries and cloud storage/file sharing. But there's several to pick from and all of them are quite good.

HT5824 how to store pictures on i cloud?

how to store pictures on I cloud?

The only want to store photos in iCloud indefinitely is to add them to a shared stream (see http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mmc0cd7e99). Photo stream photos only remain in iCloud for 30 days, allowing enough time for them to be downloaded to all your devices.

How to store files in the cloud??

I just signed up to photoshop CC. How do I store files in the cloud?

Yes, finally, thank you.
I must say, this whole CC thing is opaque as far as learning something specific. The FAQ experience leads into a maze of irrelevant paths when you (rather, I) want somethin specific. I don't even know how to actually get into this forum -- I stumbled into it te first time, and the second, and now this time -- although your answer to my first question finally led me to set up the CC folder.
I hope things get easier from here. Having said that, I have to admit I don't know how to sign up to Behance. When I go there I have to sign in but I'm not given a place to Sign UP. Sigh. Maybe you can help me out again.

ICloud and iOS 8: How to store photos on the cloud only?

I Thought iCloud would make me save space on my devices by keeping my photos on the cloud. But it mirrors all photos on the cloud into my device (I know iOS can store lower resolutions of the photos, but they take a lot of your device's space anyway)! You should be able to pick which photos you want to keep localy (so you can access them even with no internet) and wich photos you want to keep only on the cloud. If you want to delete photos on your device to open some space... be careful, they will also be deleted from the cloud. There is no way to erase it only locally.
I bought the 200G plan so I can access ALL my photo library using the photos app in iOS 8.
But how am I supposed to upload my entire photo library (100G of photos) to iCloud and access them using Apple's Photos app?
If I get 100G of photos into iCloud, how my devices will access the photos if all my devices have only 32g and everything should be mirrored?
is there a way to keep photos only on the cloud and not on all your devices?
I'm confused.
Am I missing something?
thanks.

Wait for iCloud Photo Library to be introduced later this year. It should allow you to keep full resolution photos and videos in iCloud and access them from your devices without having to have them stored on your devices. It will use your iCloud storage plan.

How to download pictures from the cloud to a new phone

I have a new iPhone 6 plus and want to get my pictures from my iphone 4s. they are backed up to the cloud.

Pictures are not "backed up" to iCloud, with the exception of their inclusion in a full backup of the device. If they are in Photo Stream, then they will be in the Photo Stream tab in the Photos app once you sign into iCloud on the iPhone 6. If they are part of a backup, then you need to choose "Restore from iCloud Backup" during the setup process on the iPhone 6. If you've already set it up, go to Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings, to start over.

Store data in the cloud

How to store data in the cloud ?

If you are referring to iCloud, the information on this portion of Apple's support site should help for starters:
http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/
I'd suggest you start with the "getting started" section. If after reading that and any section pertaning to the type of data you wish to store you still have specific questions, post back and someone can probably help.
Regards.

How can I store movies in the cloud and access them on my devices without having to download them to them?

Hello,
I would like to store movies in the cloud and access them from my device without having to download them to the device because there is not enough space on the harddrive to store them on it. How would I do this? Would I have to download the movies to my PC or could I store them directly in the cloud?
Thanks,
Tyler

Would I have to download the movies to my PC or could I store them directly in the cloud?
There is good news coming!
Technology experts are working on a movie storage system where YOU have physical possession of the movie.
This system stores the movie digitally on an optical disk system that will not be dependent upon a congested, complicated, and fragile network.
Because all of the data is stored only a few feet from your television, all the bottlenecks are removed. Performance and reliability are virtually flawless.
Further, the system will not utilize any form of security codes, authentications, or passwords. Once the optical disc is purchased it can be moved around freely at will, and can even be lent or given to friends and neighbors with zero hassles.

How do I move pictures off my phone without losing the pictures permanently? Is there a way to keep the pictures in the cloud without them being on my device?

How do I move pictures off my phone without losing the pictures permanently? Is there a way to keep the pictures in the cloud without them being on my actual phone? I'm concerned that the sync feature will remove the pictures from the cloud when they are deleted from my phone.
Thanks for the help.

Can I back up iPhoto to the cloud via some apple service (iCloud)
No
or do I need to use something else? If so, any recommendations?
An external hard disk:
Most Simple Back Up:
Drag the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to another Disk. This will make a copy on that disk.
Slightly more complex: Use an app that will do incremental back ups. This is a very good way to work. The first time you run the back up the app will make a complete copy of the Library. Thereafter it will update the back up with the changes you have made. That makes subsequent back ups much faster. Many of these apps also have scheduling capabilities: So set it up and it will do the back up automatically.
Example of such apps: Chronosync - but there are many others. Search on MacUpdate or the App Store

The videos I purchased on iTunes are taking up all the storage on my IPad. Is there a way to remove them from my iPad to free up some storage, but store them in the cloud to access in the future?

The videos I purchased on iTunes are taking up all the storage on my IPad. Is there a way to remove them from my iPad to free up some storage, but store them in the cloud to access in the future?

Thx - the videos are on my Ipad - that is the problem - they are taking up all the storage and there is no room for anything else. Is there any place I can store them so that I can access them from time to time, but not have they use up all the space on the IPad? Sounds like the cloud is out...

Restore a backup of your phone that was made while the photos were still on it. It should include your camera roll photos. This explains how to restore an iCloud backup: iCloud: Restore your iOS device from iCloud.

Unfortunately I don't use sugarsync myself, I have a dropbox account and it works slightly differently.
As I understand it you can upload files to a folder in sugarsync from your computer without having them sync to any of your devices. You can access that folder from any of your devices, and although you would need to download them in order to play the video file, you could then delete them without deleting the files in the sugarsync folder in the cloud.

How do you delete pictures from the cloud?

How do you delete pictures from the cloud?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
I assume you mean from photostream, AFAIK you can't.

How do I move my finished pictures to the cloud?

Try as I may, I was unable to move my pictures to the cloud. Probably simple.

Since I don't use iOS, under Android, you should be where your PS Touch projects are in front of you. You then tap the "share" icon (5th from the upper right) and then tap, "Upload to Creative Cloud." Choose your projects and the desired file format and then tap, "OK."

Syncing to ICloud stopped. Missing some pictures in the cloud.

Hi, anyone out there that has a solution to this. Seems I have the same problem as Walt Mossberg had with his review for the PHOTO app http://recode.net/2015/04/14/review-photos-apples-replacement-for-iphoto/
The upload screens stays at 20 pictures to upload since 2 days now. But i'm still missing a few 100 pictures in the cloud.
Thanks
Filip

Thank you. When I go into system preferences, then iCloud, then manage, it does not let me view what is there only says: ex: The documents stored inside Pages take up 623.3KB and gives me the option to: Delete Documents and Data. It does not let me see what files are there. I think it is time for me to go back to my apple store and get more acquainted with iCloud and storage and how to manage it. I had some issues with my mac about a month ago after downloading an updated version. The issue was related to syncing, iCloud, iTunes, calendar and storage. I am nervous about loosing more documents, photos, etc..from my Mac. Thank you for the information.

Use Firefox Sync to store bookmarks in the cloud?

Can I setup Firefox Sync even if I only have one device? If so, can I use Firefox Sync to backup my bookmarks to the cloud (instead of using a third-party extension?) I'm guessing that Sync stores bookmarks in the cloud because how else would it be able to merge bookmarks with another device (e.g., a phone)?

Sync does indeed store the data you choose to Sync in the cloud.
Because you need to retain a lengthy unique code in order to recover that data from a different installation of Firefox, many users find it not to be a good method of backup because that Recovery Key was lost in a hard drive crash or reformat. Make sure you store the key in a safe location outside of your computer along with your username and password.
If you end up choosing to use a different cloud backup service such as Crashplan or Carbonite, you can point it to your bookmarkbackups folder so you have a number of files for potential recovery. To get the full path to that hidden folder, the easiest way is to access it from within Firefox.
You can open your current Firefox settings (AKA Firefox profile) folder using
Help > Troubleshooting Information > "Show Folder" button
Double-click bookmarkbackups. You should see numerous files that are date and time coded. You can click after the folder name in the address bar to select and copy the path. (This is based on Windows 7, but I assume Windows 8.1 is similar from the desktop side.)
