HT204022 How to restore photos deleted photo stream???

I'm a bit of a newbee to forums and macs....
I have an iphone and have always manually used the USB and copy & paste photos onto my PC.
A couple of days ago I installed iCloud onto my PC which installed Okay and created a new photo steam folder as part of the installation.
Unfortunately, none of the existing photos in photo steam stored on my iphone moved across to my PC photo steam folder.... I read a forum that said you need to go into the photo steam folder on the PC, right click into properties and unselect the tick box for read only, which I did .... it still didn't start adding photos onto my PC, so I thought it was fair to say the icloud program wasn't working on the my PC like it should be.
Given that I thought it was pointless having a photo steam folder on my iphone and on the icloud site, so I deleted the photo stream photos off my iCloud account as I thought they wouldn't upload on my PC anyway so what was the point in having them using up my free 5GB of storage.
The next day to my horror I've discovered iCloud has deleted every single iphone photo I have (including the birth of my first born child) off my PC!!!!!!! These are photos I have always manually used the USB and copy pasted photos onto my PC so thought there was no way these would be effected by iCloud anyway ..... how wrong was I.
PLEASE HELP!!!
Is there anyway I can  recover these deleted photo steam photos?

Open you photo stream photos in the thumbnail view, tap Edit, tap all the photos you want to delete, then tap Delete.  This will delete them from your phone and from your photo stream and any other devices that are connected to your photo stream.

  • How quickly does photo stream sync for you?

    how quickly does photo stream sync for you?

    I have seen some posts floating about here complaining that photos don't or at least don't immediately sync to all devices. I think a small number of these people may not realise that syncing requires wifi and not 3G, one must also remember this community is like a doctors surgery, it is where people come if they have aches and pains.

  • How to restore a deleted built-in app (Maps)?  App disappeared: IOS 4 & 3GS

    Does anyone know how to restore a deleted built-in app?
    In my case the Maps app disappeared. According to other posts in this forum you cannot delete a built-in app such as Maps but it has happened on my iPhone 3GS.
    I'm running IOS 4.
    Morrow

    If you are unable to locate the Maps app you can still access it from the Spotlight search window. Just type in Maps, look for the familiar interstate 280 icon, tap there and you will enter the Maps app. This will work for you until you can locate the icon, which hopefully you will.

  • How to restore a deleted contact

    How to restore a deleted contact

    I've seen a number of posters claim to see recovered contacts after a restore, only to see them disappear again a few seconds later. From this I assumed that contacts are backed up but overwritten by iCloud when syncing commences again, because iCloud was technically the most current version.
    In response to these reports, I have put together the following advice:
    Ensure the device is connected to your local network.
    Start the restore from iCloud back up.
    Allow the devices settings to restore (watch for the confirmation of completion).
    As the apps begin to restore pull the connection to your router WAN port (the one that goes to the telephone point).
    Wait for the time out confirmation.
    Navigate to settings > iCloud and turn off contact syncing (keep contacts when prompted).
    Reconnect the router to the internet and let the restore process complete.
    Delete the iCloud contacts from iCloud.com on a computer.
    Navigate to settings > iCloud and turn on contact syncing (merge contacts when prompted).
    I have also noted that other users have found this to work.

  • How to restore a deleted iCloud backup? I deleted the backup to free up the 5 GB free storage and now on my iPhone some of my Contacts are missing a phone

    How to restore a deleted iCloud storage backup?
    I deleted it all to free up the free 5 GB storage and now on my iPhone 5s some of my Contacts are missing a phone # info and some of the Contacts are missing entirely. Thank you.

    I used this to restore my deleted notes from Time Machine, hope this helps others
    closed Notes,
    turned WiFi off,
    entered finder/go+option/ to 'get to library':  /Library/Containers/com.apple.Notes/Data/Library/Notes/
    entered TM and selected the 3 files/ hit restore/ keep both (just to make sure, then I deleted the newer file, not the 'restored' file when this worked out)
    opened notes and my deleted notes were back so I copied my notes into pages as a backup,
    turned on WiFi and the notes disappeared!
    replaced my restored notes by copy/pasting my backups into notes/iCloud.... 
    notes/mac would not show across iCloud.... don't remeber this being an issue prior to Mavericks when 'all' notes were selected?
    Apple needs to hear from us so they can fix glitches like this.  TM was created for instances like this, hopefully this is just an oversite.  Pass this along to Apple Feedback/iCloud/bug.  If enough of us flag such issues, hopfully it's addressed on the next update.
    Dear Apple, this should be much easier than it is. We should be able to open Notes, go into Time Machine, and restore anything regardless if it's on my Mac or on the cloud.

  • How to restore a deleted file from the iCloud

    How to restore a deleted file from the iCloud

    first you right click on the ipad (on the left in itunes): restore from backup.
    It will restore to factory ALL data anda apps
    At some point it will offer restoration from itunes, but you will only see backups made on your computer.
    If you wish to restore from icloud you forget itunes on your computer, go to the ipad and follow the instructions. At some point you will be asked to choose from icolud or confgiure it as a new ipad.
    it works

  • How can you restore photo stream photos back to Apple TV after accidentally deleting from your iPad

    After accidentally deleting photo stream  photos on my iPad, this deleted photo stream photos on my Apple TV.  How can I restore these photos back to my Apple TV and also to  my iPad?  Suggestions welcomed

    If you have a backup of your iPad prior to the date of deleting your photos, you can find them. Otherwise, you might be able to find them.
    If you do have this backup, then you'll have to restore your iPad to that point.
    If you had a Mac with iPhoto, then when you connected your iPad, iPhoto would store the photos separately from Photostream.
    I despise Photostream. It's turned off everywhere on my system. It is one of the most useless pieces of junk that Apple has foisted on my Mac and iOS. But hey, that's just my opinion.

  • How to restore photos after i tried to delete them, they are still there

    I tried to delete some photos to give me room on my start up disc. First I tried saving them to a thumb drive then tried deleting the pix. The photos come up blank but I still see them sometimes. how do I restore them completely.
    part 2 what is the best way to store them off the hard drive?

    assuming that you deleted them in iPhoto to totally remove them empty the iPhoto trash and then the system trash
    to move your entire iPhoto library to an external drive
    Moving the iPhoto library is safe and simple - quit iPhoto and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity to the external drive - depress the option key and launch iPhoto using the "select library" option to point to the new location on the external drive - fully test it and then trash the old library on the internal drive (test one more time prior to emptying the trash)
    And be sure that the External drive is formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) (iPhoto does not work with drives with other formats) and that it is always available prior to launching iPhoto
    And backup soon and often - having your iPhoto library on an external drive is not a backup and if you are using Time Machine you need to check and be sure that TM is backing up your external drive
    How to restore them - if you deleted tehm in iPhoto open the iPhoto trash and right click on them and restore to library
