HT4906 How do I delete photos that were in my Camera Roll from iCloud? I deleted them on my phone, but I'm still getting the notification that my iCloud backup is almost full.

After getting the notification that my icloud backup space was running out on my iphone5, I deleted 300 photos from my Camera Roll. But it didn't increase any space in my icloud storage. How do I remove those photos from my icloud storage without deleting the rest of the Camera Roll from icloud backup?

Does this involve iPhoto for the Mac in any way?
If your backup space is full then the best souiton is to increase the amount of space you have by purchasing more since backups are critical to not losing things
You can not remove things from iCloud directly
Your question I believe belongs in the iCloud forum - possibly in the iPhone forum - unless there is somehting I do not see here it does not belonge here in the iPhoto for Mac forum

  • HT4623 I lost my apps and iTunes after a restore, but it says there isn't enough space on the iPhone 4. How do I know how much space needs to be freed up? I keep deleting photos and videos, but I'm still getting the same message.

    I did an iphone 4 software update. It then asked me to do a "restore" in order for me to be able to use the latest iTunes. I did a "restore" to "factory settings" (this was the only option listed) thinking I'd be able to sync later and get everything back and ended up losing all my purchased apps and iTunes. When I open iTunes, "Welcome to your new iphone" and it says I can re-do the "restore" and choose my lastest update. I assume this will give me back my apps and iTunes. When i choose to do this, it says there isn't enough space on the iPhone. How do I know how much space needs to be freed up? I keep deleting photos and videos from the phone, but I'm still getting the same message every time I re-try. I don't want to delete everything, but I don't know what to do...? Thanks!

    Thanks but I think it has something to do with the 'restore'. in the newest iTunes 11, when I click on the tab "iphone", it redirects me to the "welcome to your new iphone" page and asks about doing a 'restore'. I already did a 'restore', but it went to the original factory settings and I want to 'restore' to my lastest back up as of April 12. When I choose that option, it says my iphone doesn't have enough space. I don't know how much I need to delete in order to make it work. I've deleted lots, but it only has 4.1 GB available. I'm not sure why this isn't enough to do a 'restore'. I don't want to delete all my photos and videos, but maybe I will have to?...7.7GB is used up for that. I can't sync or do ANYTHING...

    Do not concern yourself about the backups.  They will be deleted automatically if space is needed for other data:

    Freeing Up Space on The Hard Drive
      1. See Lion's Storage Display.
      2. You can remove data from your Home folder except for the /Home/Library/ folder.
      3. Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on freeing up space on your hard drive.
      4. Also see Freeing space on your Mac OS X startup disk.
      5. See Where did my Disk Space go?.
      6. See The Storage Display.
    You must Empty the Trash in order to recover the space they occupied on the hard drive.
    You should consider replacing the drive with a larger one. Check out OWC for drives, tutorials, and toolkits.

    At the present time, the only way to clear that is to restore the phone as new.  Perhaps a future iOS update will give us the option to clear that cache.

  • HT4847 if i delete camera roll from iCloud to free some space, did i loose my photos?

    What exactly have you deleted.
    If you have deleted the photos from your camera roll on your device, then you may well have lost them, assuming that they are not also in photo stream.
    Please tell is exactly what you deleted and from where.

    I deleted songs in my iphone on the music app but when I sync with the computer the songs disappear. How can I delete songs on my phone but keep them in iTunes?

    I use iTunes Match so I can't confirm this on my computer (my Music tab looks different), but as I recall, on the Music tab you have the option to check to sync selected playlists, artists and genres, and then check which playlists you want to sync below that.  Then, like songs, you would uncheck the playlists you don't want on your phone and sync to remove them.

    This helped me.
    Go to Start -- Accessories -- Command Prompt, make right click and choose run as administrator
    Type this command : netsh winsock reset
    then restart your computer, everything should be ok after this. Good Luck.

  • My daughter accidentally restored her ipod4 to factory settings so I restored from the last iCloud backup. Her photos were all on camera roll so I believe should have been backed up, but none of them have been restored. Why?

    My daughter accidentally reset her ipod4 to factory settings so I restored from the last iCloud backup. All her photos were on camera roll so I believe they should have automatically been backed up, but none have been restored. Why?

    When she plugged in the ipod last night it backed up again so that now shows as the latest backup. No previous backups are listed so I do not seem to have the option to rerun the old one. She had many pictures on the camera roll taken from well before July. I can only presume that the backup in July must have been incomplete - but then I didn't think it was supposed to list as an option to restore from. Luckily many of the photos had been backed up on the pc but I am very frustrated as to why the icloud backup didn't protect them. Thank you for your advice though, I appreciate it.

  • How can I upload pictures onto my icloud account on my computer from my phone, then delete them on my phone but still keeping them on the computer?

    It seems absolutely so easy but I don't know how to upload the pictures from my phone onto my icloud account on my computer. I used the Beta but then I was using too much data. I only want some pictures available on icloud from my laptop and I want to delete the same pictures from my phone to save space. I'm scared if I delete them and they are gone from both my laptop and phone I won't be able to get them back!

  • Some photos not showing in my Camera Roll album, can only find them if I use 'Places' and select where I took the photo

    Basically as the title says, I've noticed when trying to  find some photo's I've taken in the past few months in my Camera Roll album (in the Photo's app), I can't find them anymore.
    But, if I choose 'Places' (instead of Albums at the bottom of the Photo's app) and select the place/location I took the photos, I can easily see them.
    I have an iPhone 4S on iOS 5.1. Based on the photo's missing, it appears it's happened to photos between 11th January to around 10th March. But I was definately able to seem them in the camera roll during that time (as I specifically remember a set of photo's I took I constantly referred back to around February. I can now only find them if I choose the location where I took them).
    I've reset the unit and performed a sync, but still can't see them in the Camera Roll.
    Any ideas?

    If you deleted them from photo stream, the only way to get them back in photo stream on your device is to add them to the camera roll as new photos.  If you don't need high resolution versions in photo stream, this can be done by simply opening each photo and taking a screenshot.  If you do want higher resolution versions in photo stream your options are either to email them to yourself, then save them to your camera roll, or add them to a shared photo stream album.

    This is called "stealing". You do not have the legal right to give her the music you have in your iTunes library unless you are the copyright holder.
    when syncing it it said she had to update her phone software first
    That's not quite what it said.  Someone should have paid more attention to the great big warning about the possibility of losing data if the phone wasn't backed up.
    We cannot find her new photos. Please help and there was 100 new pics. Is there any way we can get them back. I already have the program Asoftech - but it doesnt seem to register the iphone only C and D drive. Please help!
    It restored the backup that was made on your computer 6 months ago, which did not contain those photos. You're wasting your time trying to find them on the phone. They don't exist.
    Hopefully, your friend syncs her phone to her own computer on a regular basis. She needs to plug her phone into her computer and restore it from her last backup. That will restore it to the state it was in when the backup was made.
    She also needs to get in the habit of extracting the photos on a regular basis, like she would from any other digital camera.
