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

  • Had to uninstall iWork trial since I bought the pages app and it wouldn't let me print or save.  Now the app store says I have pages installed but I can't find it anywhere to open and use it.  I'm not very computer savvy and am getting frustrated!

    Ooops, guess I didn't need to post everything in the title - sorry!  I bought the pages app - but couldn't save or print so with some online searching found that I had to uninstall the iWork trial which had expired.  I did that - but now I can't figure out how to re-install the pages app!!  The app store says it's installed, but I can't find it anywhere to open and use it.  I'm not very computer savvy - and am a first time Mac user and am getting extremely frustrated!  I e-mailed some help center and they can't seem to help me either.  I would appreciate any help/advice that can fix my problem - thanks in advance!!

    OK Apple has stuffed up the demo version upgrade process so the first thing you need to do is get rid of the demo.
    That includes getting rid of the files in the system.
    The instructions how to do that are here:
    Note That where you see / that is the sequence of folders, each nested inside each other.
    User/Library/Preferences the com.apple.iwork.Keynote.plist
    Means the User (you, the little home icon, whatever you are called on your computer) then the Library folder inside that and then the Preferences folder inside that.
    Lion initially hides the System folders from you so you have to go to the Finder > Menu > hold down the option key and click on GO > Library to see it.

    I rented a movie a few hours ago and never finished it.  I can't view it on my Apple TV nor on my Computer.  When I go to rent it again it says you have already rented this movie, but I can't find it anywhere.  How do I watch the remainder of the rental?

    I had the same issue with my apple tv 3rd generation. I rented Sinister and selected the "rent and watch now" option. Half way through the movie I accidentally pressed the menu button. When I looked for the rented movie on my apple tv I could not find it. Not even above the movie pannel where "purchased" and "top movies" comes up on the main menu. the apple tv suggests to go to settings>downloads but I don't have that option. I did go to settings> itunes store> check rentals but that didnt work either. It took too long to even check. Thank you because this SOLUTION worked great.
    SOLUTION: How to reset apple tv 3 3rd generation to view rented movies:on the apple tv remote: press and hold "menu" to go to the main menu. Select SETTINGS> GENERAL >RESET >RESET ALL SETTINGS. After the apple tv resets, input all your information again and your rented movies should be visible when you cruise above the "movies" section. THANK YOU!!
    Apple needs to solve this issue because honestly it took me 3 hours and a half to watch a movie that only lasted 2 BECAUSE I wast trying to solve the issue, reseting and all. blahh.

  • I downloaded an AudioBook onto my iPad due to battery life.  Now I want to have it on my iPhone which is one of the appliances that is authorized for my icloud account, but I can't find it anywhere.  What gives?

    I downloaded an AudioBook from iTunes onto my iPad due to battery life.  Now I want to have it on my iPhone which is one of the appliances that is authorized for my iCloud account, but I can't find it anywhere other than the iPad.  How do I get access on my iPhone?

    It will only be where you put it.
    If it is on the ipad then transfer it to your computer, File>Devices>Transfer Purchases, then sync it to your iphone

  • When i right click on my ichat i see old ichat convos i want them gone. the only way i found to do this is by deleating the ichat.plist but i can't find it anywhere

    i want them gone. the only way i found to do this is by deleating the ichat.plist but i can't find it anywhere. i have gone through all the plist in preferences and its not there i want these convos gone

    Hi,
    Go to the Finder's Go Menu > Go to Folder and type in ~/Library/Preferences
    This will open the Preferences in the Home Folder's Library.
    In Lion this Library is Hidden and you cannot Click you way there.
    Delete the com.apple.ichat.plist and it's associated .lockfile  (Drag to Trash>
    Restart iChat.
    I am presuming Lion from what you say despite your specs saying Snow Leopard.

    I rented a movie from Apple, it shows the charge but I can't find it anywhere on my Mac or IPad...help

    Which did you rent it on ? On an iPad it should have downloaded into the Videos app, if on your Mac is there a 'Rentals' tab at the top of the Movies section of your library ?

  • I have a Ipod touch 2nd generation, and everytime I go into the app store to download spotify, it says i already have. But I can't find it anywhere. help please!!

    My ipod touch 2nd G says that it downloaded spotify, but i can't find the app anywhere. i downloaded it over itunes on my computer, because it wouldn't download on my ipod.

    Create a NEW account using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before.
    Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, and Mac App Store account without a credit card
    Using those instructions you may also be able to select PayPal if that is allowed in your country.

  • I have lost my iphone and it was in power off mode

    i lost my iphone just this evening ,and it was in power off mode.i believe its still not found by anyone since its still not ringing when i dial that number. i have filed a police complaint and ii logged in icloud to activate the find my iphone feature.keeping my fingers croosed. does anybody else know how to track it with the IMEI no.?

    You cannot track an iPhone by IMEI. If someone finds it and turns it on where it
    has access to WiFi or cellular service, it should show up on iCloud. You may wish
    to put it into Lost Mode and display your contact information on the screen.

  • HT1766 I lost my iPhone and would need to recover the photos, notes, etc., from my last backup

    I lost my iPhone 3GS a few days ago and I want to recover all the photos, notes, etc., from my last backup. How can I do that?
    Thanks!

    Backup from where?  itunes or icloud?
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
    Go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Erase All Content and Settings.  This will erase your phone.  Then you will go through the setup screens again as you did when your phone is new, and when given the option, select Restore from iCloud Backup.  Or choose a backup in itunes if that's where it is.

  • I have 3,500  photos on my MacBook that I would like to copy to my Windows 7 PC. The PC CAN "see" the MacBook on the wi-fi network but I can't find the picture files through that route on the MacBook.

    I took 3500 pictures with an iPhone 5 and a Canon Ixus camera whil on holiday in China. I downloaded them onto my MacBook every day.
    Now we're back home I want to back them up onto my Windows 7 PC as it has a 1 TB HDD.
    My PC and MacBook can see each other over the wi-fi network (the PC has an Ethernet connection to the wifi router) and the MacBook can copy files from the PC but not vice versa although the PC can "see" the MacBook - just not copy or transfer any files.
    Also when I look for the jpegs for my holiday pics I can't find them on the MacBook though they open happily in iPhoto. When I look in my iPhoto library it seems to have (among other things) an XML file as a database but no actual jpegs. There are some jpegs on the MacBook but these are from photos I transferred from the PC before I out the 1TB HDD in.
    Where are the actual photos stored and how can I transfer them to the PC over the wifi network?

    Selectthem in  iPhoto and export to a desktop folder - see the user tip on exporting for edtails on the options available - from there it has not involvement of iPhoto - what access you have andhow you access the Mac disk is a subject for a differnt forum
    Direct access to the contents of the ihoto library - a SQLite database - is not supported
