Lost my pictures that were backed up in iCloud. How do I find/search for them?
Unfortunately, you cannot view them and I would not recommend to only store your photos via iCloud, because iCloud will only do a backup of your device including the photos that you have currently stored in your Camera Roll. I would recommend to store them (manually or via Photo Stream) on Mac/PC or with another cloud storage service like Dropbox.

I just bought a macbook pro and I want to know how to restore pictures that were backed up on iCloud but then deleted from my phone. Isn't that the point of the backup so I can delete and make more space. Please help!
Log into the iCloud on your MacBook Pro and enable Photo Stream:
Then launch iPhoto and set iPhoto's Photo Stream preferences to the following:
Then check the Photo Stream section of iPhoto:
This is to confirm that the photos are still in Photo Stream. If they are they will be imported into the library.
NOTE: not all photos in an iPhone will be in the Photo Stream. PS only keeps photos in it for 30 days.
If you have the missing photos in your library put them in an album. Connect your iPhone to the Mac and open iTunes. In iTunes you can select that album in the library and sync the photos to your iPhone to get them back on the iPhone.

Is there a way i can get them back as i did not want it to restore my old phone anyway! i also had my hone set up to the cloud and it didnt work! PLEASE SOMEONE HELP ME
Can you try to use another computer?
If this does not work, visit an Apple Store or an Authorized Apple Service Provider next to your place, and show them the phone, maybe they can restore it before you'll have to get it serviced.
Did you try to put it in recovery mode?

How can I view my pictures that were backed up to iTunes? I no longer have an apple product but need to view the pictures for very important reasons.
If you mean backed up as part of an iPhone backup in iTunes? If so, you would have to use 3rd party software to extract them from the backup, such as iPhone Backup Extractor.

My phone was stolen. I first backe up from the icloud but then synced with my computer and lost some pictures that are backed up on the cloud. How do I get pics from my old phone which are backed up on the cloud but are not in my photostream?
If you have an iCloud backup, restore it to your phone as explained here: https://support.apple.com/kb/ph12521. If you have a backup on your computer instead, restore it to your phone by connecting your phone to your computer, opening iTunes and going to File>Devices>Restore from Backup.

I replaced iPod touch because of broken screen, photos were backed up to iCloud. I cannot find the older photos, only the ones taken with the replaced iPod. How do I get old iPod pictures from iCloud?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Are you referring to photos that are backed up or photos in photostream. -
I haven't deleted my text messages on my iphone 3g and now i cant view the pictures that were in the text messages how can i view them?
I had the same problem a year ago when I did an iOS upgrade. Now if I receive an important photo I save it to the Camera Roll

How can I locate pictures that were backed up to my time capsule
I backed up my macbook air to my time capsule. But how to I find photos once they are backed up?
If you are asking about the iPhoto Library, it is not possible to browse individual images. Instead, you have to restore the entire library back to your Mac.
To do that, open Time Machine and navigate to your Pictures folder. The iPhoto Library is inside the Pictures folder. -

I am assuming you never backed up your computer.
Sounds like you still may have problems with your PC. -

HT201317 how do I open to view pictures that were stored in my icloud?
How do I open and view old pics that I hope are stored in my icloud?
Hello Shannon,
Your Photo Stream photos can be viewed from your Photos App.
How do I view My Photo Stream?
On your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch, your photos will appear in the Photo Stream view in the Photos app. If you're using iOS 6 or later, you can find your photos by tapping the Photo Stream tab and then tapping the My Photo Stream album. In iOS 5, your photos are in the Photo Stream album.
On your Mac, they appear in the Photo Stream view in iPhoto or Aperture. In iPhoto 9.4 or later or in Aperture 3.4 or later, open the My Photo Stream album in the Photo Stream view.
On a PC using Windows 8, from the Start screen, select Photo Stream. On a PC using Windows 7 or VIsta, click theWindows Start button, and then Pictures. Click Photo Stream under the Favorites menu in the panel on the left. Double-click My Photo Stream to view your photos.
On Apple TV, after signing in with your iCloud account, you can view your photos by choosing Photo Stream from the main menu (or selecting Internet > Photo Stream in Apple TV Software Update 5.0).

My daughter's iPhone was stolen, is there any way to recover photos that were back-upped to iCloud?
My daughter's iPhone was stolen. Is there any way to recover photos that she would have backed up to the Cloud? Note, we did not have photoshare running.
Camera roll photos are included in the backup. The backup includes:
Photos and videos in the Camera Roll
Device settings (for example: Phone Favorites, Wallpaper, and Mail, Contacts, Calendar accounts)
App data
Home screen and app organization
Messages (iMessage, SMS, and MMS)
Ringtones
Visual Voicemails
