HT201317 icloud backup, can I use my full 50GB or is it just 30 days

In a perfect world I woudl have icloud backup all my pictures but it seems that it only does the last 30 days even thouhgt I have paid to go to 50gb.
Can I make it so that icloud backs up all my pictures past 30days or past the 1000 picture mark?

Welcome to the Apple community.
I think you are getting confused between backup and photo stream. Backup will back up all the photos in your camera roll. Photo stream photos and not backed up, they sync with other devices and only keep the last 30 days of photos.

  • I was trying to get the iOS 8.2 on my iPhone 5 but then it stopped and my phone is now on recovery mode I have pictures I need and they did not all fit on iCloud  how can I use the phone again with ALL my pictures and videos without restoring it?

    Contacts are designed to be synced to a supported application on the computer or a cloud service.
    Pictures taken with the device are designed to regularly be copied off the device to a computer as would be done with any digital camera.
    If you have failed to use the device as designed it may be too late to recovery anything.
    Is the device regularly backed up to a computer via iTunes?  If so, the most recent backup (when restored to a replacement iOS device) should contain all contacts and pictures as of when the backup was created.

  • If I update from 10.6.8 to Mavericks and I have a time machine backup, can I do a full restore back to 10.6.8 and resume as if I had never updated?

    If I update from 10.6.8 to Mavericks and I have a time machine backup, can I do a full restore back to 10.6.8 and resume as if I had never updated if there is a problem?  Probably an answer I should know but I don't.  Thanks in advance!  (instruction suggestions welcomed)

    Upgrading the OS is a system wide thing. So all users will receive the upgrade.
    It should not delete files and such. However, if you have for example files made with Pages '09. Then the new Pages that comes with Mavericks will make a copy of those files so you can continue to edit them. But those new files can not be opened in Pages '09. BUT again, some people perfer Pages '09 and they use that still. Mavericks will just hide Pages '09, it's still usable in Mavericks just hidden.
    To be safe, make a back up of your system before doing any major upgrade.

    I have a limited storage in iPhone so i bought 20g iCloud. how can i use this iCloud storage in my device to store music and photos?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You could sign up for iTunes match and use iCloud photo library with optimisation enabled. The later will keep optimised photos on your device and iTunes match will let you access your whole collection and make room for newer content by removing older unplayed items.

  • My iphone is locked by icloud i can´t use the iphone

    my iphone is locked by icloud i can´t use the iphone

    If this is your iPhone and you set the Apple ID and password, you can releae the iPhone by logging in to your iCloud account from a computer or another device with the Find My app installed, click Find My Phone and remove the iPhone from the devices list.
    You can then restore the iPhone using the recovery mode as described in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

    All ISP-provided equipment is junk. You could get a decent router and connect it to the Verizon router in bridge mode. It should cost about $ 30.

    Apple TV requires an HDTV. It is a media streamer and all content would be available on your Mac so there would be no reason to connect it anyway.

  • TM backup: can I use two drives to back up data on two other drives?

    Hi to all!
    I have with me a 1 TB/ Thunderbolt EHD [external hard drive], a Lacie 2 TB/FW, EHD, a Seagate 2 TB/ 2 USB, EHD, a Seagate 3 TB/ 2 USB, EHD and [to be purchased] a Seagate 2 TB/ 2 USB, EHD.
    I mainly use my Mac for making HD videos using FCPX.
    I am planning to use these drives in the following manner as indicated by the table below:
    Drive:
    a
    1 TB,
    Thunderbolt,
    Buffalo
    b
    2 TB/ FW
    LaCie
    c
    2 TB/ 2 usb
    Seagate
    d
    3 TB/ 2 usb
    Seagate
    e
    2 TB/ 2 usb
    Seagate backup
    [to be purchased]
    f
    500 GB, internal
    Macintosh HD
    Partitions
    1
    1
    1
    2
    1
    USAGE:
    editing videos, one
    active project at a time
    mainly for camera
    archives, music files,
    FCP events, projects
    and exported movies
    same as the LaCie,
    as a backup of data
    intend to have 2
    partitions of 1.5 TB each;
    one partition for personal
    data and the other partition
    to back up data on the
    Thunderbolt [current project]
    intend to use this for
    TM back up of my
    Mac's internal HD
    applications, documents etc.
    backed up by:
    one partition of 'd'
    by the 2 TB Seagate
    backup 'e'
    I would like to know whether I could do these things:
    Can I use the TM backup feature in this manner of using 2 separate drive/partition [e/d] to back up data on 2 other drives [f and a]?
    Further, I am manually copying files from 'b' drive to 'c' drive; without incurring further expense, can I ensure that whatever I write onto the LaCie [b] gets copied to the 'c' drive automatically?
    Any thoughts, suggestions and instructions in these matters are welcome.

    EXT. DRIVES:
    a
    1 TB
    Thunderbolt
    b
    2 TB/FW
    [LaCie]
    c
    2 TB/ USB
    [Seagate]
    d
    3 TB/USB
    [Seagate]
    e
    2 TB/USB
    [Seagate]
    USAGE:
    scratch disk
    [planning to have
    only one active
    project at a time]
    camera footage
    FCPX events, projects
    and completed movies
    Same as the LaCie,
    as it's backup
    To be used as TM
    backup for my Mac's
    internal and also to
    the scratch disk.
    Planning to have it in
    2 partitions: to have
    a 'secondary' copy of
    my Mac's IHD on one
    partition and to have
    personal 'net retrievable'
    data on the other partition.
    'MY
    OBSERVATIONS'
    my projects are usually
    less than 10 minutes
    and hence I trust that
    work would be fast and in
    case of drive failure, I
    would be losing only
    one project.
    I am importing camera footage
    primarily into this drive and
    being FW, data transfer is
    fast.
    Am manually copying
    files from the LaCie
    onto this.
    This drive is not a
    brand new one, but
    has been given to me
    by the company's
    agent as a replacement
    to my earlier 2 TB drive
    which had failed.Hope
    this also will not fail!
    Because of the 'uncertain'
    performance of the
    3 TB Seagate, I intend
    to have a copy of my
    Mac's IHD in one
    partition. I intend to place only
    such data upon the other
    partition that I will not be
    greatly affected should the
    drive fail.
    If you can analyse this plan and give your insight upon this matter, I will be immensely happy.
    Further, if this proposed use of the 3 TB Seagate is okay with you, I need to know how to remove the Thunderbolt from doing it's temporary role of TM backup and how to coronate the 3TB Seagate as its successor.
    FYI, I would be switching off TM from functioning whenever I am editing video; I would be switching it on only after a full editing session.
    Another question on my mind is this: do I need to partition the drive 'e' at all?

  • IOS Beta iCloud Backup Can't be Deleted

    I have an iCloud backup from one of the iOS betas that I can't delete from my phone or from the iCloud preferences pane on my Mac.  Apple seems to want to charge me for an incident to look into this which means that I'll never use iCloud.  Any suggestions?

    I was having this same issue, I had 2 iCloud backups from the iOS 5 beta period that were taking up over 3gb and I could not see them on the manage screen in order to delete them. All I did was backup my iPad (with the non beta OS of course) and it automagically cleared out the old beta backups. Now I have all my space back and I can see the backup in the manage screen. Hope that helps.

  • Deleted iCloud Backup - Can I restore?

    Hi,
    Today I accidentally deleted the iCloud backup, is there any way to recover it?
    I need some pictures of that up, because I had my iphone stolen.
    Sorry for poor english.
    Thanks,
    Kido

    I am afraid not, once you deleted your backup on iCloud you cannot get it back again. (If you also used Photo Stream, then maybe you can get some of your pictures back. Therefore set up your iPhone enable Photo Stream (during initial set up or in "Settings > iCloud") and see if some of your photos return into the Photo Stream folder in "Photos".

    Note: Make sure iPad is connected to Wi-Fi

    I found a iphone4 but it is supported by icloud. How can I use the phone

    What you should do is turn it into the police. In case you didn't know, in most jurisdictions, this is called "larcency by finding".
    If the phone is running iOS 7.0, it will be useless to you anyway.

  • Unity Express Backup: Can we use DNS name of FTP server instead of IP address?

    Gentlemen!
    In the Unity Express system, can we use DNS name of FTP server (Microsoft FTP Server) instead of IP address in the General configuartion for Backup Server?
    e.g.  FTP://FTP_Server_Name/Directory
    Additionally we need to configure/add DNS server name in the Domain Name settings under system menu. Is there any additional configuration would require for setting up FTP server with DNS entry & above config?

    Backing Up and Restoring Data
    Last Updated: May 12, 2010
    Cisco Unity Express backup and restore functions use an FTP server to store and retrieve data. The backup function copies the files from the Cisco Unity Express application to the FTP server and the restore function copies the files from the FTP server to the Cisco Unity Express application. The FTP server can reside anywhere in the network if the backup and restore functions can access it with an IP address or hostname.
    We recommend that backups be done regularly to preserve voice-mail messages and configuration data.
    Backup and restore commands are available in configuration mode and in offline mode.
    •In configuration mode, commands are available to set the following parameters:
    –Number of backup files to keep (the oldest file is deleted).
    –URL of the FTP server where the files will be stored.
    •In offline mode, perform the backup or restore procedure. Decide the following:
    –Type of files to be backed up: all files (configuration and data), only configuration files, or only data files. Data files consist of voice-mail messages. Configuration files consist of all other system and application parameters.
    –URL of the FTP server where the files will be stored.
