HT4859 i want to access pictures from a backup only! not restore a device, how do i do this?

I need to get acess to a backup, as in WHAT it backed up in terms of pictures. I do not want or need to restore a device, just access picturs.

It is not possible to examine specific data stored in an iCloud backup, except by restoring it to your device. If backing up with iTunes, it's possible to use 3rd party software to extract data from a backup, but not with iCloud backups.

My iphone 4 wont restore my pictures from my backup. I never uploaded them to the computer so this is a big deal.

I have tried to restore from my Iphone 4 from my last back up and other back ups to see if it would help. Nothing seemed to work to get my media back. I really need my pictures because i have not backed them up on my computer

The backup only saves the iPads own camera roll. You should have backed up your other photo's into whatever application you use for photo's on your computer. If you did not back them up somewhere, they are gone.
This articel will tell you exactly what is backed up: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4946

When I'm trying to mirror on AppleTV instead of mirroring my iPod, a random picture from library pops up on the screen. How do you fix this? Has this happened to anyone else?

When using mirror on AppleTV instead of mirroring my iPod I get a random picture from library. How do you fix this?

No, that's not mirroring. As I said that's basic airplay. Mirroring is an entirely different function.
What model iPod do you have? Mirroring requires an iPod Touch 5th Generation.

HT4993 I have 3 phones under the same apple ID. I want to remove mine from the same one my kids use. How can I do this but keep their's on the current apple ID?

I have 3 phones on one apple ID. I want to remove my phone which is the main phone on the acct to it's own apple ID. How can I do that but keep the other 2 on the current ID

When you connect that iPad to iTUnes, go to the summary page and scroll down, there should be a box saying 'automatically update' or something to that effect. De select that.
With automatically update on, what you buy on one goes onto the other. but with that box off you can choose.
On the iPad itself, it's under
Settings
iTUnes and App Stores
and then you can choose what you want automatically updated between the two devices.

HT204053 I cannot access the app store because it wants to access an @me Apple ID that no longer works. How do I eliminate this ID so I can access apps?aid

I cannot access the app store because the iPad is requesting a password to an Apple ID that does not exist. The app store seems to be using an @me iCloud address as the Apple ID. This is not my ID or email addresses. How can this be changed to my Apple ID?

Easy, just sign out then back in again.

Hello, I am hoping to use photo elements 11 to do a project with pictures. I want to arrange pictures side by side in a grid layout. How do I do this? Layers??

How do I arrange pictures side by side in a large grid??

Open PSE 11 and create a new file of the desired size of your final file.(File > New > Blank file)
Open the picture files in PSE 11.
View > Grid (Edit > Preferences >Guides & Grids to change the grid size and color)
Open the blank file and drag the pictures into it.
Place and size as desired, using the grid as a reference. (You could also use guide lines instead of the grid)

I want to transfer songs from an old IPOD shuffle to my IPhone, how do I do this?

I have an old white IPOD shuffle that I want to download the songs off of to my IPhone, how do I do that? Itunes doesn't seem to recognize the Shuffle anymore?

Itunes doesn't seem to recognize the Shuffle anymore?
If the shuffle is broken, that will be a problem. The first step is to get the shuffle to work, so that it is recognized by the system.
When you connect it with iTunes running, it does not appear in the sidebar, under DEVICES? If you quit iTunes and run Disk Utility, does it appear in the Disk Utility sidebar? When connected, does the orange light blink on and off?

When I send a text to someone, they receive it from my email address not my ph number, how can I stop this?

I recently upgraded to iOS 6 and am being told by my contacts that when I send a text they receive it from my email address (in their messaging app) and not from my phone number.
I have checked the send/receive settings in Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, the phone is set to send/receive default from my phone, yet the email sends it first.
I have removed and re added the email address, but have had no luck resolving the problem.
Has anyone else had the same problem? Is there a way I can stop it without turning off iMessage?
Thanks in advance.

There is another setting for "Start Conversation from", that needs to be set to phone number.

I am transferring to the iPhone 5s from my 4s and I lost my activation guide so all my messages are sending from my email and not my number. How do i fix this?

I want to move pictures from my mac to iCloud. Then I want to erase those pictures from my mac and leave them only in iCloud.. Can I do it?

I want to move pictures from my mac to iCloud.com, then I want to erase those pictures from my mac and leave them only in iCloud.. Can I do it?? It looks like it's not possible because if I erase the picture from my mac, then they'll be erased automatically in my iCloud account too!!

If you are using iCloud Photo Library and delete them from any device they will be deleted from iCloud and from all devices using iCloud Photo Library. If you want to reduce the storage space required on your Mac the following quote from iCloud Photo Library FAQ - Apple Support may help:
Can I use iCloud Photo Library to save space on my device?
iCloud Photo Library automatically keeps all your photos and videos in the original, high-resolution version. Follow these steps to choose how you store your photos and videos on your device:
In iOS, tap Settings > iCloud > Photos or Settings > Photos & Camera, then select a storage setting.
In OS X, click Photos > Preferences > iCloud, then select a storage setting.
If you turn on Optimize [device] Storage, iCloud Photo Library will automatically manage the size of your library on your device, so you can make the most of your device's storage and access more photos than ever. All of your original, full-resolution photos and videos are stored in iCloud while device-size versions are kept on your device. You can download the original photos and videos over Wi-Fi or cellular when you need them.
If you turn on Download Originals, iCloud Photo Library will keep your original, full-resolution photos and videos in iCloud and on your device. Download Originals is the default setting for iOS devices with the free 5 GB storage plan and for all Mac devices.

How do I access pictures from my iPhone saved in iCloud so that I can delete some of them from iCloud selectively?.

How do I access pictures from my iPhone saved in iCloud in a computer so that I can see & delete some of them from iCloud to free up the free 5GB?.

What Mac model do you have? What system version and iPhoto version are you running? Do you meet these requirements:
The following is for this Apple document: iCloud: Photo Stream FAQ
What do I need to use Photo Stream?
To use Photo Stream, including Shared Photo Streams, you need an iCloud account, compatible devices, and up-to-date software:
iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 6.0 or later
Mac with OS X Mountain Lion v10.8.2 or later and iPhoto 9.4 or Aperture 3.4 or later
PC with Windows 8, Windows 7, or Windows Vista (Service Pack 2) and the iCloud Control Panel 2.1 or later for Windows
Apple TV (2nd generation) with Software Update 5.1 or later
You can still use Photo Stream without Shared Photo Streams if your devices meet these requirements:
iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 5.1 or later
Mac with OS X Lion v10.7.5 or later and iPhoto 9.2.2 or Aperture 3.2.3 or later
PC with Windows 7 or Windows Vista (Service Pack 2) and the iCloud Control Panel v2.0 or later for Windows
Apple TV (2nd generation) with Software Update 5.0 or later
If you do then sign in to the same iCloud account that's on your iPhone on your Mac via the System/iCloud Preference pane as shown in this screenshot:
Next setup iPhoto's Photo Stream preference pane as shown in this screenshot:
The photos on your iPhone must be in it's Photo Stream so make sure the iPhone has enabled Photo Stream as shown below:
Now you can select a photo in the Photo Stream section of iPhoto and control-click on it to delete it:

I want to send pictures from my computor to my iPhone

Not so much of a question, but i will help
     If you have a mac: you could turn on your cloud service by making an apple id the going to setting then turning on icloud, then turn on photo sharing, do the same on you mac and all the photos that you take from your phone will now be on your mac.
If you have a PC: just simply email the photos to yourself, then open them from you computer
                                                                                                                                        Hope this helps
