HT4528 how do i access my camera roll that was backed up using iCloud?

I recently switched from the iphone4 to the iphone5 and my storage capacity was almost full due to pictures and videos. I backed up everything using icloud and reset the iphone5 to have more free storage. Now I cannot figure out how to find my camera roll content in the icloud. Does anyone know how to access this? ~Thanks

You will have to restore the backup you made from iCloud. It's all or nothing. You can not restore 'only' the photos/videos.

    How to remove the old email address that was hacked from my iCloud account when iCloud won't let me?
    Pretty much the the email that I used (but didn't verify) to create my iCloud account was hacked and now I can't remove it from my iCloud account due to the iCloud password also being changed by the same person and the fact I had "Find my iPhone" app on my phone also??? I had to change my iTunes email as well but that was far easier so yeah :S.
    Please help. I live in NZ, out in the country, so reception is rare and so is getting into the nearest town that has an Apple Store.
    Thanks

    If you truly change your existing Apple ID's email address to a new email address, follow these instructions: iOS 7: If you're asked for the password to your previous Apple ID when signing out of iCloud
    If you created a whole new Apple Account because you couldn't access the old one after being hacked, you will need to contact the Apple Account Security Team. Apple ID: Contacting Apple for help with Apple ID account security

  • How do I sync new iphone  5S that was set up with iCloud

    I just upgraded to a 5S from the 4S.  I backed up my old phone using iCloud and used iCloud in my setup on the new phone.  I still need to sync with iTunes to get my Audiobooks onto the new phone.  Currently my iTunes will automatically sync when I connect my old phone.  What happens when I plug in the new phone?  I really only need the audiobooks, everything else is fine.  Also, how do I tell iTunes I no longer have my old phone?

  • HT5824 i lost a note from my note pad that was backed up in icloud.  how do i retrieve it?

    how do i retrieve my backed up note pad info?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    The difficulty in restoring iCloud data from a back up is that the back up is older than the current version on iCloud and anything that is restored gets removed again when an iCloud sync occurs. I have previously suggested ways to recover contacts, calendars etc, and other users have confirmed that they work, as such I am making the following suggestions to recover lost notes, but please note, as yet success is unconfirmed ***.
    Recovering your notes is quite time consuming, you may wish not to save all your notes to save some time, if they are not of importance.
    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.
    Open the 'Notes' app, and open your first note (assuming your deleted notes have now been restored).
    Select the share option at the foot of the screen (rectangle with arrow) and choose mail.
    Send the email to yourself (If they won't send, save them to draft)
    Repeat steps 7 & 8, until you have copied all the notes you wish to save to email.
    Reconnect the router to the internet and let the restore process complete.
    Navigate to settings > iCloud and make sure 'Notes' syncing is enabled.
    Open the 'Notes' app, check that iCloud notes have reverted to how they were before starting the restore.
    Open the 'Mail' app and open the first email you sent yourself and copy the text you want in the note.
    Open the 'Notes' app and create a new note in the iCloud, paste the text you copied.
    Go to iCloud.com on a computer and check that the note has synced to iCloud.
    Repeat steps 12, 13 & 14 until you have recovered all your notes.
    May I suggest that you carry out a back up to iTunes before you try anything, that way should things become even worse, you can at least restore back to where you are now.
    *** As a matter of protocol, anything that I can’t test myself will need to be confirmed by at least 5 individuals before I’m willing to accept it as confirmed. At this time only 2 individuals have confirmed it to work.

  • How do I change an email account that is backed up to iCloud?

    How can I change the email account that is currently being backed up to icloud?

    This forum is for questions from those managing sites on iTunes U, Apple's service for colleges and universities to post educational material in the iTunes Store. You'll normally be most likely to get help with general iTunes and iTunes Store issues if you ask in the general iTunes forums.
    Answering quickly, though, this is a question you probably should ask of Apple through your iTunes Connect account. These are user-to-user technical support forums, so not many content providers who might know the specifics of the process participate here.

  • HT4859 I have unwillingly synced my iPhone to my wife's iPhone. All her information got tranfered to my phone and over-rode all my contacts and data. How do I recover MY date that was backed up on iCloud yesterday?

    This morning I ave unknowingly synced my iPhone to my wife's iPhone's data in iTunes. Now all HER information is on my is on my phone and all of my information has been overwritten. How do I recover my data and overwrite her data. My latest backup to iCloud was yesterday. I have not backed up my phone today and have turned off the auto back up feature, hoping I can still retreive yesterday's data. Can anyone help?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    You will need to restore your phone and when prompted use the backup that you made yesterday.
    Before you do so, you may wish to change your wife's iCloud login details, otherwise you may find that you then overwrite her data. She should have her own iCloud account to avoid this.

  • How do I retrieve my lost data that was backed up on iTunes?

    My phone recently had a problem where it needed to be restored every few hours. So I backed up my data on itunes and just before my phone restored, it completely broke and only the itunes logo appeared on my phone. So I sent it to be fixed and when I brought it back home to try to restore from back up, it wouldn't work as it wasn't even an option when I right clicked my device on itunes.
    Is there any way to retrieve that data for free. I've lost over 1500 photos,all my contacts and much more.

    That's the main problem. There is no option to "restore from backup " for me because my phone broke during the process of restoring. I'm concerned about the fact that itunes has history of my back up but no way of recovering anything I backed up.

  • How to access iPhone "Camera Roll" by API?

    I would like to know how to access to "Camera Roll" by iPhone API.
    Because, I know several iPhone application which has own image list and the list is synced to "Camera Roll".
    If I take photo by iPhone native camera, the taken photo is listed up on the image list so I guess those applications can access to "Camera Roll" directly.

    Please find the discussion at below link:

    Hello there, RegBebble.
    The following information on the phone User's Guide should help point you in the right direction for adjusting the preferences for your App:
    Privacy - iPhone
    http://help.apple.com/iphone/7/#/iph3dd5f9be
    Particularly:
    Turn off access to private information. Go to Settings > Privacy. You can see which apps and features have requested and been granted access to the following information:
    Contacts
    Calendar
    Reminders
    Photos
    Bluetooth Sharing
    Microphone
    Twitter
    Facebook
    You can turn off each app’s access to each category of information. Review the terms and privacy policy for each third-party app to understand how it uses the data it’s requesting.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.

  • How do I add photos to the camera roll that were not taken on my iPad? I imported photos to my iPad from my camera, and now I want to add them to my camera roll which is sync'ed with Dropbox as a back up mechanism.

    How do I add photos to my camera roll that were not taken one my iPad? I have iMported photos from my camera to my iPad. Theses photos are in the imported photo album. I want to move these photos to my camera roll but can't figure out how to this. I want them in my camera roll because that is the album that syncs with Dropbox where I want to backup my photos. Thank you for your help.

    Consider using sshfs to mount your Pi from your Linux boxes.  It's much easier to configure and manage than samba.  It sounds like you already have your Windows machines mounting your Pi so Samba is doing its job in that respect.
    More info on sshfs in the Wiki: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Sshfs
    To help get you off the dime, here's a modified line from my fstab that I use to mount my Pi with:
    gav@PI:/mnt/backup /mnt/rpi/backup fuse.sshfs rw,relatime,user_id=0,group_id=0,allow_other 0 0
    Subsitute my mount points with yours.
    For a password-less mount:
         ssh-copy-id gav@PI
    after you've set up ssh and generated some keys on your client box.
    Here are some relevant lines from the smb.conf file on my Pi that I use for my one Windows box in the house that might help you with your write permissions:
       security = user
      hosts allow = 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0
      guest account = gav
    ; And my share setup:
    [rpi]
       comment = Public Stuff
       path = /mnt
       writable = yes
    ;   printable = no
    ;   write list = @krb
    [torrent_dl]
       path = /mnt/video/torrent_dl
       writable = yes
       create mask = 0770
       directory mask = 0770
       guest ok = Yes
       case sensitive = No
       read only = No
    Hope this helps.

  • How to arrange photos in camera roll datewise its not showing datewise please let me know

    how to arrange photos in camera roll datewise its not showing datewise please let me know

    Emile
    Bear with me a minute. You're confusing a lot of things.
    1. As Larry says, on Windows you are using a File Manager for you your photos. All well and good if it works for you, but limited. Why? Because it doesn't leverage any of the extra information available with photos files. Essentially, a File Manager doesn't distinguish between a photo nd a Word file or a Music file. They are just files.
    2. Photo Managers like iPhoto (Or Picasa, Aperture, Lightroom et al) work differently. They are designed to leverage the additional information available in the photo file. Case in point: Date. In the File Manager you have folders created for Year/Month/Day. In iPhoto the pics are grouped into Events automatically. These Events are based on the date and time the Photos were taken, and which is recorded in the Exif metadata for the photo file.
    As we all know, when one downloads pictures from a camera, their"names" appear as a bunch of letters and the number indicating thesequence.
    These are Filenames assigned by the Camera. In iPhoto you don't change Filenames you edit Titles. Titles are quite independent of filenames and are an entry in the Exif metadata.
    I'm not sure what you've done in the renaming sequence, but iPhoto does not have a Sort -> by Name command. There is a Sort By Title command.
    But you would not use Events for this job anyway. You would use an Album. Create an Album, drag the pics to it and then you can sort them in any order you want, manually. Then using the Batch Change Command you can create a sequence for them. So, Title the pics 'House Sale' and check the box to append  number and the result:
    House Sale 01, House Sale 02 etc

  • HOW do I delete the camera roll from my iPad2.

    I updated to ios7.02  
    I tried this
    Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Photos and Camera.     and you can't swipe and get a delete option..  how do I delete the camera roll?
    I don't want to have to delete each of the 900 photos one at a time.  

    Syncing through iTunes won't help because that is not where synced photos are stored on iOS devices - they are in a folder that you name in iTunes (mine is iPad Photos).
    The only way to clear the photos from the Camera Roll is to tap SELECT at the top of the screen, then tap all the photos so there is a blue checkmark on each of them and then tap the TRASHCAN at the bottom. You can select all the photos, but must do it individually.

    Hello,
    I have photos on my i-phone in albums (not on the camera role, and I don't seem to be able to transfer them to the camera roll) that I want to back up to my computer, but neither my computer or i-tunes can see these albums.
    Any idea's as to how I can save these 500 odd photo's?
    Thanks for any help that you are able to offer.

    There are only two ways pictures get on an iPhone.
    1) Pictures taken on the device that show up in the Camera Roll.
    2) Pictures synced from the computer via iTunes to the device that show up in other folders.
    There is no need to back these pictures up from the iPhone to the comptuer as they already exist on the computer.
