I have photos in my cloud stored away, but i can't access them!

I have over 5gb of cloud space used up, i previously lost iphone but still had all the photos backed up on icloud. however it seems that i cant access them dirwectly. how can i get them off my cloud and onto my new Mac? they are not in my photo stream either.

If you backed up your phone on iCloud, restoring the backup to another iPhone running the same or higher version of iOS would recover them.  (The only photos you can access on your Mac are photo stream photos, however photo stream only keeps photos in iCloud for 30 days so you wouldn't be able to access older photo stream photos.)

  • HT1338 Hi, I have accidently sent my iPhoto from the dock to the trash, can I get it back? I've searched the trash but can't find it, my photos are still in the computer, but I can't access them with the iPhoto icon in the dash.

  • I lost my iPhone and I was hoping that my photos were being saved to iCloud, but I can't find them anywhere. I read that iCloud saves them for thirty days, but where?

    You are referring to Photo Stream. Photo Stream syncs the photos taken with your device to all of your device.
    It's not a photo storage service, so photos are deleted 30 days after being added to Photo Stream. You can't access to your Photo Stream photos from http://www.icloud.com, but only from an iPhone, iPad or iPod touch (using the Photos app), Mac (using iPhoto '11 or Aperture 3 with OS X Lion or Mountain Lion) or PC (with iCloud Control Panel).
    In all of these devices, you have the option of copying them to the device, so they will be kept after 30 days

  • ITunes says I have certain apps on my iPad, but I can't access them on my actual iPad...

    iTunes says I have certain apps on my iPad, but I can't access them on my actual iPad. This happened after plugging it in to my iMac. Can this be fixed, or do I have to re-download those apps not appearing on my iPad?

    I assume that you've checked all your homescreens by swiping the screen to the left, and that you havn't filled up the maximum number of screens, which I think is 12 (in which case you will only be able to find them via the search screen - and have you tried typing in their names on the search screen ?).
    Also how did you install them : by syncing from your computer or downloading them straight onto the device ? If you synced them then if Settings > General > Restrictions > Installing Apps is set 'off', then change it to 'on'.
    You could also try a reset to see if they appear after the iPad has restarted : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • If I put my Apps in the cloud does that mean i can't access them without wi-fi service?

    If I put my Apps on the Cloud does that mean I can't use them if I have no available wi-fi?

    Not at all. It only means that they are backed up. Your apps are still on your device. If you use iCloud, then when you purchase a new app, then the app is automaticallly pushed to all other iCloud enabled devices for that account.

  • We have down loaded apps to our pc but we can't get them on our ipod touch.  We don't have wifi but thought we could still be able to get apps on the ipod by connecting but it doesn't.  We have synced out ipod.  What do we do?

    We have downloaded apps to our pc but we can't get them on our ipod touch.  We have synced our ipod to our computer.  We can't even get them when we are some where there is wifi.  We don't have wifi at our home and was hoping to be able to plug it into our computer and get everything from our computer to our ipod but it doesn't work.  What do we do?

    Sync them from your iTunes library:

    Note that you can only sync apps from the one syncing computer/library that yo can have. If the iPod was synced to another computer/iTunes libary or set up via wifi then to make this computer/itunes library your syncing computer/library:

  • I moved keynote presentations from i-cloud to documents but now can not find them. Where did they go?

  • HT1660 I have downloaded two podcasts from ABC radio, but I can't find them?

    I am a very new user of iPad, only a couple of days. I have downloaded podcasts from ABC radio but can't find them, any ideas?

    Since you've posted your question in iTunes forum, I assume you have downloaded these Podcasts into iTunes and that you cannot find them in iTunes. Is that correct?
    How did you download them?
    Did you download them through iTunes as Podcasts? You would have seen them appear in the iTunes Download window.
    Or did you download them directly from the ABC website, as MP3 files to a folder on your computer?

  • HI, I have a Canon Pixma MG5250 printer and it doesn't seem to recognize iPhoto. All my photos are in iPhoto but I can't access them when the printer's 'photo print' box comes up.  Any suggestions? thanks

    Hi,
    I have a Mac OS X version 10.5.8
    I now have a Canon Pixma Printer MG 5250 and it doesn't seem to recognize iPhoto, where all my folders of photos are in the computer.
    All other aspects of the printer such as scanning and printing documents are working.  When I open the printer's
    'photo print' box on my Mac, it cannot access iPhoto. 
    I would really appreciate any feedback and suggestions as to what to do.
    thanks.

    If you want to print a photo that's in your library you should do so from iPhoto.  Select the photo, crop to the size you want to print and type Command+P to start the print process.  In the Print window select the paper size and print size, printer and then click on the Print button.
    OT

    Make sure that you have the latest version of the iCloud Control Panel to see and copy your photos to your computer.

  • My bookmarks disappeared. The health report says I have 289, but I can't access them.

    I opened firefox and all my bookmarks were gone. There is only 1 backup, it is from this morning and it contains only the default bookmarks. However, when I go to the health report it says I have 289 bookmarks, so it knows they are there somewhere.

    "Firefox updates without losing bookmarks."
    Clearly it doesn't always, it has done it to me 3 times, once on this computer and twice on another.
    "Firefox also automatically backs up snapshots of bookmarks."
    Not always, otherwise I wouldn't have posted this problem, would I?
    "Your problems may well have been cause by third party software."
    That is just a bullshit excuse to not address a serious bug somewhere within Firefox
    "Backing up important information is often good practice whether that relates to browser use or general computer use. "
    Yet more bullshit weasel words to avoid addressing an issue.
    Really people, if you have no solution, then why waste time making such pointless posts. It's almost as if you feel threatened by the fact that there is a major flaw somewhere in Firefox. It's just a browser, and it has a problem. There is no need to post to deny it, the fact that this thread even exists is all the proof you need that the problem exists.

  • My photos are in the Library, but I can't use them

    Hi. I recently added a ton of photos to my library that I had in my email. They are there but I can only access them through the pictures file and cannot use them at all in iphoto. I have tried to import them into the library (even though they are there) and I get a message saying they are unreadable even though they are jpg's. So my question is, how can I get it so I can use these for slideshows etc? I mean they are on my computer in the library folder but just can't be used and don't show up unless I go through the pictures option. They aren't on the page where it says library with all the sub folders.
    Hope this makes sense to someone out there because it is confusing as heck to me! I just want to be able to use these photos.

    lookinforhelp:
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Where are those image file located? It sounds like they are located somewhere inside the iPhoto Library folder and iPhoto will not import any file located there. So move them to the Desktop and import from there. Never put any file inside the iPhoto Library folder via the Finder or move, rename or edit any file or folder via the Finder.
    Do you Twango?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.

  • I have an iPad mini, 16GB, running on the 7.1.2 iOS system, my App Store icon is no longer on my home screen and neither is my iTunes Store icon. They are listed in my settings but I can't access any unless through other games, or songs on iPad.

    I Have an iPad mini operating on 7.1.2 iOS. My App Store icon as well as my iTunes Store icon are missing from my home scree. They are still listed under my settings, but I can't access them unless it's through an app that already exists. Where can I go to reinstall these?  I use the same Apple ID on my iPhone 5c as well and they are on the iPhone, but I don't know how or why they just disappeared from my iPad and want to know how to get them back without having to reset my iPad and lose what I have on it. Thanks, Karla

    Thanks so much! My grandaughters played games on the iPad over Xmas and one of their moms said shed restricted their access! Guess they forgot to enable again. Thank you again! Karla

  • Ipad says I have 149 photo on it but I can't find them, any idea where they might be stored? they are not in any folder including deteted photos folder.

    My ipad says it has 149 photos on it, but I can't find them. Any ideas where they might be?

    Did you ever restore your last iCloud backup?  That contains you camera roll photos & videos, text messages, app data, settings, etc.  It will also redownload your apps and other purchased media.
    If you didn't, follow the steps in this article to restore the backup: https://support.apple.com/kb/ph12521.

  • I am planning a long vacation and taking my laptop but it is my home computer that my new ipad and ipod touch are synced too. I know i can backup to the cloud over wifi but how can i do things like delete photo albums

    I am planning a long vacation and taking my laptop but it is my home computer that my new ipad and ipod touch are synced too. I know i can backup to the cloud over wifi but how can i do things like delete photo albums instead of having to manually delete pictures one by one on the Ipad. Is there any way also to add my pictures to the ipad other than through email. i am assuming that i can't just install itunes on the laptop and sync to that. I have been told that i always have to sync to my original synced home computer for that.
