HT201317 I only have 300 photos saved on Photo Stream but all of a sudden all my photos from before March 2013 have been removed. Where did they go?

And how do I get them back? (If I can at all.)

If you're running a Mac and iPhoto that meets the requirements for iCloud and Photo Stream you can set iPhoto to automatically import all photo stream pics into the iPhoto LIbrary by setting the preferences as shown below:
The requirements for- iCloud and Photo Stream are laid out in these Apple doucments:

  • I turned on icloud and all my photos from my mac iphoto are gone.  Where did they go and how to get them back in iPhoto

    All of my photos are missing from Iphoto on my mac.  I have turned on icloud however my iphone photos are not on my ipad or imac either.  Help.

    Do you still see your photos, when you launch iPhoto and not Photos?
    Where did you keep your iPhoto Library? In your Pictures folder, as is the default? Or on an external drive?
    Look in the folder with your iPhoto Library.
    You should be seeing two libraries, if you already let Photos upgrade the iPhoto Library:
    Your iPhoto Library, now called .migratedphotolibrary
    and the new Photos library:
    are the libraries there? and how large are they?

  • No longer have my photos in iCloud. Where did they go? From iphone5--checked and photo stream

    No longer have my photos in iCloud. Where did they go? From iphone5--checked and photo stream is turned on.

    In icloud? Didn't realize there was a time limit for my icloud storage.
    Photostream is separate from iCloud backups.  Were the photos part of the backup, or only part of Photostream?
    If they were part of the backup, then restore your device from the iCloud backup.
    If they were only part of Photostream, then that is, again, temporary storage, for up to 30 days.  After 30 days, the photos may or may not be available.

  • I updated my iPhone 4S to the iOS 5.1 software last Friday.  I noticed on Saturday that only the photos I had taken with my 4S were gone.  Where did they go when I syned my phone for the software update?

    I updated my iPhone 4s to the iOS 5.1 last Friday.  I noticed the next day that the pictures that I had taken with only this phone were gone from my photos.  I still have over 1600 pictures on my phone that are there, only the ones taken from this device are missing.  Where did they go when I syned my phone?  I can't find them in my iTunes.

    You should be importing all pics taken with iphone to your computer regularly, particularly before any update, restore, etc.
    If for some reason you have failed to do this, tehn they are very likely gone.
    You can try restoring from backup.

  • All of the photos in my text messages have disappeared and been replaced with a question mark image. Where did they go?

    I updated my ios two or three weeks ago, but suddenly beginning this morning all of the photos in my text messages have disappeared. They have been replaced with question mark placeholders. I can't access any videos/photos that either I have sent or others have sent to me. I did nothing to instigate this change (no software updates, etc.) and have already tried resetting my phone multiple times.
    Thank you!!

    I have the same condition on my iPhone only. I also have an iPad, a Macbook Air and an iMac that share the same iCloud account. Messages with photos seem to work fine on all devices except my iPhone.  All of a sudden all the photos in my iPhone message streams have disappeared and been replace by question mark placeholders. I rebooted all devices, shut down messages, and rebooted, restarted, with no luck. Very bizarre and extremely frustrating. Any suggestions?

  • I have 300 apps organized in folders on my ipod touch 4th gen, and connected my iphone 4, these apps have copied over but none have been placed in folders, any ideas how to replicate folders from ipod to iphone...?

    What may work is to restore the iPhone fom the backup of the iPod.  However, if the two devices ahve different apps that come with the device, that may mess up some of the folders.

    sorry to hear that. You can try redownloading them from iTunes in the Cloud or from your purchased page:

  • IPhoto 6 "found" old photos - where did they come from?

    When I opened iPhoto 6 for the first time, it updated my iPhoto library just fine. In the process a dialog opened saying it found 134 photos from somewhere, and asked if I wanted to import them. When I said YES, it created a new album and imported those 134 photos into it.
    The photos ended up being old photos (2-4 years old) that I thought I had deleted a long time ago, many of my ex-wife during holidays and a vacation 3 years ago! Where did they come from? Needless to say, my new fiancee wondered why I had old photos of the ex! I thiought they were gone.
    I used Spotlight to search for "IMG_0...) and found many old photos I had deleted! I do not have an old iPhoto libraray on my PowerBook G4, but the photos were still there in folders, deep inside iPhotos filing system. I deleted all the ones I needed to, all by hand within the Finder.
    What happened?

    I had well over 2,000 photos recovered... Also ranging from 5 years old to this past month.
    There was no clear answer but the photos were recovered in large chunks (300 from December, 400 from March, 600 from January, etc...)..
    The entire time I has iPhoto 5, it never worked properly (always crashed) so a lot of these photos clearly were photos not properly saved in iPhoto 5.
    However, I don't see them in my main library. How do I move them from recovered to the Library?

  • Lost photos I imported. Where did they go?

    Imported digital photos from my camera to iphoto. For the first time ever they have disappeared. Where did they go?

    Iphoto '11 in an imac OS 10.7.5. I have done this transferring from my camera hundreds of time to my imac. I have always selected delete photos from my camera and this is the first time in 7 years that this has happened. When i went back to iphoto the next morning there were not any of my photos there. I did a iphoto library rebuild and nothing came back. I probably should never delete the photos from my camera card, but now a lesson too late. Looking at Media Recovery? Any good?

  • HT4910 I can't find my notes in my iCloud account. I checked my iPhone 4, and it says that they are still being saved to the iCloud. Where did they go?

    I can't find my notes in my iCloud account. I checked my iPhone 4, and it says that they are still being saved to the iCloud. Where did they go?

    I'm not familiar with the PC end of things, but in a recent post I read about someone using notes.exe to access notes (I'm assuming they knew what they were talking about) - would your installation of icloud app(s) include a notes program?  At least do this, log into icloud.com with a computer browser and look in mail.  There should be a notes "folder" listed along with the others you may have defined.  Are you notes there?  If not, that's the problem.  Be sure notes is turned on in Settings>icloud on your device.  if they are there, then it looks like the PC end is the problem - but I can't provide help concerning that.

  • I joined itunes match. I had over 1,000 songs.  Now I have 298.  Where did they go?

    You can only sync with one computer. When you synced to the new computer it would have erased it and synced what was on the new computer.
    You always need to have a backup, an iPhone is not a storage device.
    When you get a new computer you need to transfer your library before syncing
    If you don't have a backup you may be out of luck
    The only thing would be if you're in the US and have access to the iCloud beta to reload purchases

  • I have downloaded, extracted and installed Elements 12 but it will not open nor can I find the Adobe file in the file where I installed it to..  When I've tried to download and install again

    I have downloaded, extracted and installed Elements 12 but it will not open nor can I find the Adobe file in the file where I installed it to..  When I've tried to download and install again it says that the "Object Already Exists."  It may exists, but it is not visible in the file or in my list of programs on the Startup Menu.

    You should not have to uninstall Premiere Elements 12/12.1 in order to install and run Premiere Elements 13 on the same computer unless your computer is overloaded and the computer resources are compromised. Just use one program at a time.
    Can you still use 12/12.1 on this same computer that will not let you use 13?
    What specific Window operating system are you using?
    Let us go through the usual drill...
    1. Does the problem exist with and without the antivirus and firewall(s) disabled?
    2. Are you using a pen and tablet device instead of a mouse?
    3. Did you install the program with antivirus and firewall(s) disabled?
    4. Disable the SLCache Folder found in Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit
    Local Disk C
    Program Files (x86)
    Common Files
    Adobe
    and in the Adobe Folder should be the SL Cache Folder that you delete or disable by renaming the Folder
    from SLCache to SLCacheOLD.
    5. Are you running the program as Administrator and is the latest version of QuickTime installed on the same
    computer as Premiere Elements 13?
    Let us start here and then decide what next.
    Thank you.

  • Can someone tell me how to find my photos?I backed up my iPhone but Photostream was not on.pictures are not on my laptop so where did they go?

    Can someone tell me how to find my photos?I backed up my iPhone but Photostream was not on.pictures are not on my laptop so where did they go?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Backing up does not transfer your photos to your computer, if you don't want to enable photo stream, you will need to transfer your photos when your device is connected to your computer using iTunes.
