I just stored all my pictures in iCloud. Can't I erase them from my phone since they are now in the cloud?
I just put ALL of my pictures in iCloud. Is there a way I can erase them from my phone since they are now in the cloud?
Mitzi0111886,
While you can't delete the photos from your iPhone without deleting them from iCloud, you can enable Optimize iPhone Storage in Settings -> iCloud -> Photos.
You can turn on Optimize [device] Storage from Settings > iCloud > Photos or Settings > Photos & Camera > iCloud Photo Library on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. You need an Internet connection to access an original photo or video that’s stored only in iCloud.

I plugged in my iphone to my mom's computer for charging and all my pictures are now on her computer and off my iphone.
How can I get them back?Yeah, unless she backs up the iphone to the itunes on her original computer before syncing again. Backing up will create a backup of the camera roll, so this shouldn't be a problem.
Copied from the OP's post.
I plugged in my iphone to my mom's computer for charging and all my pictures are now on her computer and off my iphone.
The photos imported by her Mom's computer were deleted from the Camera Roll after the import process was completed. If she updates her iPhone's backup now, it will be updated with a blank Camera Roll on the iPhone.
The question was how to get the photos back onto the phone. What I said would have worked.
And what you provided would have transferred these photos back to her iPhone in the Photo Library preventing her from importing the photos with her computer. And if there are any photos on her iPhone that were transferred from her computer or regardless, the photos transferred from her Mom's computer to her iPhone via the iTunes sync process will be deleted from her iPhone's Photo Library as the first step when selecting to transfer any photos from her computer to her iPhone. -
I have an I-phone 4S. I have backed up my phone to I Cloud. My contacts continue to completely disappear from my phone. They are backed up on I-Cloud (I have checked that they are there, through my computer.
How can I restore my contacts to my phone from I Cloud?
Thank you!If you've restored your phone as NEW and the problems persists, then you have a hardware failure. You'll need to bring your phone into Apple for evaluation and probable replacement.

Can i delete the pictures off of my phone since they are going up to the cloud anyway
Can I go ahaed and delete the pictures off of my phone since they are uploaded to the cloud and google?
If all the photos you need are in the cloud, yes you can delete them. But do not delete the photos in Photo Stream as theses are the cloud's photos.

I just upgraded my iphone 4S to IOS 8 and a ton of pictures appeared on my iphone from my computer. I want them saved in my computer iphoto but not on my phone. If I delete them from my phone will they delete in iphoto on my computer? They are taking up a lot of memory. Thanks
No they will not delete. If you are nervous about that, connect your phone to your computer and import the photos into iPhoto and drag them into a new folder on your desktop.

If you delete them from the phone you will delete them from iCloud.

I have just got iTunes match. It appears that since joining and starting it some tunes have been deleted from my library. They are shown in the listing but iTunes can no longer locate the files. Any suggestions?
If they are showing in the Videos app with a cloud then go into Settings > iTunes & App Store on your phone and set Videos (under the 'Show All') heading 'off' - you might (depending upon which country that you arein) have a similar button for music and the Music app.

When logging into iCloud in Safari, Calendar doesn't display any events. They are displayed on the iPad, iPhone on even the iCal. What is wrong ?
:S,
Sorry, missed that fact. My memory is good, but short.
Try moving the "Calendar Cache" file to your Desktop. Quit iCal, and find the "Calendar Cache" file in your Macintosh HD/Users/yourusername/Library/Calendars. Move that file to your Desktop. After that, (I remember that I recommended this before), as long as you are moving files to the Desktop, repeat the plist removal procedure once again, log out/in or restart.
You should also consider removing the "To Do's" from Mail before restarting iCal. When you open iCal turn off "Show Birthdays calendar" in iCal>Preferences...>General.
Are you syncing any data? If so, what method(s) are you using?

I Paid the 2.99 for 200gb on iCloud. Now all the photos have disappeared and are not in the cloud
I will move this post to the Acrobat.com forum so that the Adobe staff for the Acrobat.com forum can find out what happened to your lost files between March and August 2014.

Can i delete my musics from my HD once they are on icloud?
I have many questions about itunes match. After "uploading" my musics to icloud can i delete them from my computer and later download them from icloud so that a i can have the 256kb aac version of them?
Why many of my music dont have the cloud icon beside the music name?
How should i know when my music was converted to 256kbs?
ThanksYou can easily see which songs are "matched" or "uploaded" by enabling the iCloud Status column in the iTunes Browser. Pull down View > View options, select "icloud status" and click OK.

Once most of us want to download the files the best quality possible, its pretty nice observe how many songs were really matched or simply uploaded. In my case i guess about 70% were matched.
Keep in mind that upgrading of your music is not the primary purpose for which iTunes Match is intended. It is a very nice side benefit, though.

Does anyone knows if changing the music tag (ID3?) helps improving itunes store to match more songs? If so can do it in itunes or finder? Thanks a lot!
Modifying the ID3 tags will have very little if any affect on whether a song is matched or not. The main thing iTM relies on to do its matching is the waveform of the song. -
I have an Iphone 4 with OS 5.1.1 and it does not show store or music under my icloud tab in the phone. Also, my music and photos don't show on my icloud?
My contacts show and find my iphone....on the icloud. I just paid $20 thinking more storage would help, but it didn't. How can i cancel that and get a refund?
Where are is my music on the cloud? How do I upload my music to it? If I lose my phone, it looks like there is no where to go to retrieve my music.
And itunes won't let me sync my music to my computer. It is all music that I've purchased on itunes.
Thanks!You need to subscribe to iTunes Match to store your music on iCloud:

To transfer iTunes Store purchases made on your phone to your computer, connect your phone then choose "Transfer purchases..." from the File menu in iTunes.

I had previously had years worth of Christmas music in my iTunes. When not the holiday season I obviously deslect it so that it does not play. I thought it was all backed up to the cloud, but now upon trying to recover it and resync it to my phone for travelling, I cannot find it anywhere. Is my music gone for good?
Why did you think it was in icloud?
You can redownload some itunes purchases in some countries, but this does not apply to music not purchased via itunes.

Photoshop CC2014 has just been installed earlier today, and it won't access all of my custom settings from the previous PSCC. I constantly use Batch Actions, always work in custom workspaces, and they're all gone. I can't find an option to retrieve them from the previous version, which seems ridiculous. It will take at least a full day's work to recreate this stuff that's sitting right there in the previous version. Isn't there someway to "update" the new version with my custom batches and workspaces at least?

how do you get to user library preferences. can't find it in the c drive
The terms you used, "user library" and "c drive" are from Mac and PC architectures respectively. Read the information at the link I posted more carefully - there are different sections for Mac and PC.
Keep in mind the AppData folder is usually hidden by Microsoft,
Also know that Adobe hasn't updated that page to include specific locations for CC 2014, so you have to look around just a bit when you get to the deepest folder.
As an example, here's where my preferences are on Windows 8.1:
C:\Users\NoelC\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC 2014

I unchecked sync under the photos in itunes, i deleted them all using image capture...I turned the phone off and on....what the heck??
Unchecking sync photos in iTunes will only delete photos synced from your computer to your phone, not the photos taken on your phone in Camera Roll. To delete these, open Photos>Camera Roll, tap the arrow button on the top right, tap the photos you want to delete, then tap Delete at the bottom.
