HT201077 when you delete a photo from your iphone does it delete it from icloud back up also

When you delete a photo from your iphone does it delete it from the icloud backup?

No, however your next backup will not contain the photo as it is no longer on your phone (and iCloud only saves approx. 3 older backups so the one containing the photo will eventually no longer be available).  Also, a word of caution...it seems like many users end up losing some or all of their photos when restoring to their iCloud backup.  To be safe, don't rely on the backup but instead import your photos (and videos) to your computer, as described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.

  • What does it mean when you receive a text on your iphone 6 form your own number and the message is duplicated on each side (sent/recieved) and has "verizon message" with a long number at the end of the text, duplicated as well?

    what does it mean when you receive a text on your iphone 6 from your own number and the message is duplicated on each side (sent/received) and has "verizon message" with a long number at the end of the text, duplicated as well?

        Great question stacybrownie! Let's get to the bottom of this so that it's not a cause for concern. When a message is sent to/from your own number, it will display as one sent, one received. This makes it display two messages as you are seeing. Let's clarify the second part of your question. Where do you see "Verizon Message" exactly? What is the long number at the end of the text? When did this start and is it with all text messages or only this instance?

  • Can you transfer old photos on your iPhone to iPad using iCloud?

    I know that once you take a photo on your iPhone it will be pushed into the photo stream which can be accessed on your iPad and computer; however, Is there anyway you can wirelessly transfer old photos to your iPad that you took on your iPhone before iCloud came out?

    Not without restoring your iPad to the entire backup of your phone, or using special 3rd party software (see http://www.imore.com/how-manually-transfer-app-data-your-iphone-5).  And even then the app data may not transfer if the iPad and iPhone versions are not compatible (you would have to contact the developer and ask).

  • Does anyone know how to get photos from iCloud back on your iPhone?

    I was having issues with my iPhone 4 not charging anymore. I went to the apple store today and ended up having to buy a replacment phone. When I was going through the set-up, I tried to do an iCloud restore but wasn't able to as the new iPhone didn't have the latest iOS 7 update. I asked the technician if I went through the set-up as a new iPhone if I was going to be able to retrieve my photos later. She said yes. So I proceeded the set-up as a new iPhone and the only thing that restored was my contacts. Am I able to somehow get my photos from iCloud and put them onto my new phone? Or are my pictures lost for good? Please help! Thanks in advance.

    Are you referring to both Camera Roll photos and Photo Stream photos? If so, then you would need to do a restore of your new phone from your iCloud backup:
    RESTORE FROM ICLOUD BACKUP
    If you are just talking about Photo Stream photos, then once you have your iCloud account signed onto your new phone, and you have turned on Photo Stream, then the last 30 days or 1000 photos should download to your device once you are connected to Wifi. It may take some time.

  • Why is my iphone 4s taking so long to restore my photos from icloud back up

    i restored my phone from factory settings to icloud back up this all worked normally all my apps and everything restored very easily so did my photo streem however on my camera roll it just says downloding and non on my photos are there it just keeps saying dowloding how long will it take for my pictures to appear ? its been like this for hours !!!!! please help

    It sounds like it's stuck.  If you changed Wifi networks since starting the restore, this is probably the issue. Once you are at a location where you are going to be for a while, go to Settings > General > Reset > erase All Content & Settings > Erase iPhone.  On the set up screens that appear next, connect to Wi-Fi and choose Restore from iCloud Backup and start the restore again.  Stay on that same Wi-Fi next work until all of you photos are loaded and in Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup you should see "Backup Now" indicating the restore is complete.  If you see "Stop Restoring" then continue to stay on the same Wi-Fi until it is complete.
    If you have been on the same Wi-Fi since you started restoring the first time and never went out of range, etc. then find another Wi-Fi network if that keeps happening after you try to restore once more per the instructions above.

  • My photos have disappeared from my phone and I can not figure out how to pull them from iCloud back to my phone. Can someone help me??

    How do u get ur photos from iCloud back to ur phone if the disappear???

    You download photo stream photos by going to Settings>iCloud>Photo Stream and setting it to On.  Photos are only held in photo stream for 30 days, so older photos will no longer be there.
    Camera roll photos are only included in your backup.  If the photos were on your iPod when you last backed it up, restoring the entire backup should recover them.  Restoring to an iCloud backup has to be done in the initial device setup process.  If you have any newer data on your iPod now that is not in the backup that you want to save you'll need to do that first.  Then go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Erase All Content and Settings.  Then go through the setup screens on your iPod and given the option, choose Restore from iCloud Backup.  Be sure you are connected to wifi and your charger as this will take some time to finish.

  • Is there a way to import photos to the iPad without the photo also appearing in the Camera Roll?  I have a Photo Transer app that lets me wirelessly import photos to an album but they also appear in the CR and when you delete from the CR the photo is dele

    Is there a way to import photos to the iPad and put in an album without having the photo also in the Camera Roll?  I have a photo transfer app but when I import the album and photos they are also shown in the CR.  When you delete them from CR they are deleted from the album too.

    You can sync photos from your computer via iTunes, and each folder that you sync will get its own album : syncing photos. You will need to sync all the photos that you want on the iPad together in one go - synced photos can't be deleted directly on the iPad, instead they are deleted by not including them in the next sync.
    In terms of albums that you create directly on the iPad no, effectively you are just creating pointers to the photos in those new albums, so if you delete the original photo you will therefore also be deleting all pointers to it.
    You could consider a third-party photo management app instead e.g. Photo Manager Pro

  • When you delete an app from your homescreen it is still in the cloud, does that mean you still have the app, and how do you get it back on to the home screen

    When you delete an app from your homescreen it is still in the cloud, does that mean you still have the app, and how do you get it back on to the home screen. new to ipad so do not know much. Anybody know.p

    As long as the app remains in the store then you can re-download it via the Purchased tab in the App Store app, or via the Purchased Link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes : re-downloading.
    Similarly ibooks can be re-downloaded, and depending upon what country that you are in then music, films and tv shows may also be re-downloadable (if they remain available in the store).

  • When you use icloud to back up your iPhone does it delete the camera roll after 30 days or just the photo stream?

    I have my phone backed up to icloud but for unnamed reasons I cannot restore from icloud back up at the moment. I'm worried about my pictures. Will the back up of the camera roll delete after 30 days or is that just the photo stream?

    The statement is directly from Apple and can be found here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4486
    Keep in mind, pictures showing in PhotoStream does not mean they will be there when a new device is added, only that they have been downloaded by the device they are displaying on.
    In other words, if a new iDevice is added to the account, it will only download the last 1,000 pictures taken in the last 30 days, not every picture showing on other iDevices in PhotoStream.

  • How come when you delete a photo in photo stream folder (PC), it is not deleted in the photo stream (iPhone)?

    If you upload a photo in the 'Photo Stream Uploads' folder (PC), it is automatically imported to iPhone (via Wi-Fi). How come when you delete a photo from the Photo Stream folder (PC), it is not deleted in the Photo Stream (iPhone)?? I mean doesn't iCloud automatically update the changes? thanks.

    You cannot delete photos from the photo stream.  You can only log into icloud and in your account, you can delete photo stream and start fresh.  It is rumored that the next upgrade to iOS will allow deletions of single photos from the stream, but not yet.
