Icloud doesn't automatically download all my pictures/videos

I have set up my iphone, ipad, macbook on iCloud but realized that only a few selected pictures were downloaded onto photo stream. I have lost all my pictures/videos on camera roll and I am trying to see if iCloud had sync'd to my ipad and macbook but I can't find most of the photos and videos in my other 2 devices. Anyone have similiar problems or know what I can do to retrieve the photos/videos not in my photostream?

Hi i know you posted your question months ago, I have the same issue but no one answered you or did they? I can't see my videos and photos from ipad in the cloud even though all devices are synced iPad and macbook? anyone out there got any suggestion?
Thanks

Make it so Itunes doesn't automatically download ALL the songs onto my ipod

I would like to know what to do so that when I plug-in my Ipod it doesn't say that erase and sink because i'm on a diffrent computer than my main computer. So what I want to know is how to select specific songs to put on my ipod and not update the WHOLE ipod I just want certain songs to add to my list. I have itunes 7.02 and i know that itunes 6 can do that but what do I do since I have 7.02?????

What video format (including embedded audio) is able to be viewed and heard by both OSX Lion users and Windows users?
You have to make a distinction between the container format (eg, AVI, MKV) and the video/audio format (eg, DIVX). For instance, without additional software, QuickTime can play .avi files with the IndeoVideo codec, but not .avi file with the DivX codec). Further, you have to make the distinction between what can be played using an independent player, eg, QuickTime Player, and what can be played within the presentation software (Keynote or PowerPoint).
You can refer to
<http://mac2.microsoft.com/help/office/14/da-dk/powerpoint/item/7acce321-36fb-48d 6-8c76-12cb3a0063ee>
for suggestions. In practice, for presentation clips, I think you're limited to MPEG-2 and MPEG-4. I don't know if an additional MPEG-2 QuickTime component is required under Lion, you'll have to check that yourself. So, in the end, it's MPEG-4. Both Keynote and PowerPoint Win/Mac should be able to handle it.
can anyone suggest a safe application that I can purchase from the apple app store that will allow me to convert video files
What's a 'safe application'? And why do you have to buy it from the App Store (yuck!)?
Handbrake, as mentioned by X423424X, is free and works very well. There are probably others, too.
this forum is the best place to learn
Perhaps, but it may not be the place to get answers to this question. Try a PowerPoint Mac user forum, they would have more experience in these x-platform issues. This forum is oriented more towards the hardware side of the MBP platform.

Album art doesn't automatically download after import

Whenever I import a new C.D., the album art for that album doesn't automatically download, even though I have that option checked as yes in my iTunes preferences. So, I wind up having to get the album art myself. What gives? Anyone else having similar problems? Any suggestions?

Using windows version, I can't update multiple songs either. Neither drag-and-drop from an IE window or copy&paste work when several songs are highlighted, but it works fine when it's only one. I haven't tried to update multiple via the "info" screen yet (at work atm). It seems to affect both mac and PC :/ it worked fine on v6.

Unfortunately your iPad can only log into 1 primary account at once.

Recovery project automatically deleting all audio and video transitions

When Premiere crashes, the recovery project has automatically removed all audio and video transitions. This has happened to one project about 3-4 times.. Has anybody seen this or has a solution?

No ... but I'll just kick in here that it is good to have your auto-save set for not too long a time, and not a bad thing to manually save-as to an incremental every so often. It does mean your last couple few minutes of work need to be re-created, but ... that's nothing compared to losing a LOT of work.

Pictures/Videos in your camera roll? If so, & not backed up or imported to your computer, they are gone. There's no supported way to recover them now.

How to store all iPhone pictures/videos on iCloud?

I have a 30G iPhone 5S. I subscribe and pay for 200G in iCloud storage. I am trying to have all my photos and videos be saved from my phone onto iCloud which I can then also access on our MacBook. Under "General -- Usage -- Manage Storage" I have selected "Camera Roll" to back up to iCloud. Also, under "Settings -- iCloud " I have"Photos" sleected. I keep getting warnings that I do not have sufficient storage to take pictures and videos.
Questions:
1. How do I back up and store my entire "Photo Library" (i.e. pictures and videos) to my iCloud account?
2. How do I sync all the pictures and videos on my iPhone to my MacBook? Not just the "Photo Stream" pictures?
I thought by purchasing the iCloud space, I would have the 200G to take as many videos/pictures as I wanted since they would be stored there and not on my actual phone with the limited hardware storage. Please advise....this is SO frustrating!
Information:
Product - iPhone 5S
OS - 7.1.1 (11D201)
Model - ME309LL/A
Capacity - 27.4GB

An iPhone backup to iCloud stores the photos on iCloud but the backup of the photos (and the other data on the phone) are only useable for a complete restore (e.g, in the event of a problem with the phone or when moving data to a new phone).
Apple does not have a method of storing all iPhone photos on iCloud using iOS 7 in a way that you could then access them and sync to a Mac other than Photo Stream.
iCloud Photo Library (beta) can be used to store your photos on iCloud in a way that they can be retrieved but you would need to upgrade your phone to iOS 8.
You turn iCloud Photo Library (beta) on via Settings > iCloud > Photos > iCloud Photo Library (Beta). There is more information at iCloud Photo Library beta FAQ - Apple Support
Note the following quote from that link:
How does iCloud Photo Library save space on my device?
If you turn on Optimize [device] Storage, iCloud Photo Library will automatically manage the size of your library on your iOS device, so you can make the most of your device's storage and access more photos than ever. iCloud Photo Library stores the original, high-resolution photos and videos in iCloud and can keep lightweight, device-optimized versions on each of your devices. As long as you have enough storage, recent photos and videos that you access the most will stay on your device at full resolution.
To turn on Optimize [device] Storage on your device, tap Settings > iCloud > Photos or Settings > Photos & Camera, then select Optimize [device] Storage. You need an Internet connection to access an original photo or video that’s stored only in iCloud.
Also note that the new Photos app for the Mac that integrates with iCloud Photo Library has not yet been released but is expected with the next release of Yosemite (i.e., OS X 10.10.3); In the meantime you could access them via a browser at iCloud.com.
With iOS 7 there are other 3rd party solutions (not involving iCloud) that may do what you want. Examples you may want to investigate include Flickr and Dropbox.

I recently received my new iPhone 4 from my carrier since my old one was stolen. I restored my new iPhone from my old iPhones iCloud back up but now all the pictures that were stored in my old phone are blurry in my new phone. Please help!

Luckily, using the "Find My iPhone" app, I was able to scare the thieves into bringing my iPhone back to the place they stole it from (Dave and Busters..on my BIRTHDAY OF ALL DAYS). So now, $169 later (deductible for replacement iPhone), I have both my 1st iPhone and my replacement. On my first iPhone, I have all of my pictures saved and they are very clear, but when I restored my replacement iPhone from my original iPhones iCloud backup, all the pictures that I took in my original iPhone are blurry! I thought about backing up my original iPhone through iTunes and then resetting my replacement iPhone and restoring it from my original iPhones settings but I dont want to lose all of my new pictures I took. I know this sounds confusing (well, it looks confusing, since you cant actually hear me) but I could use all the help I can get!

I have recently updated my software on the new iPhone and when it backed up it backed up to the old iPhone
No such thing has occurred. iPhones do not backup to one another.
It is not possible to backup a different iPhone from the one being updated.
If the iPhone was restored with a backup from a different device, restore it again from the correct backup.

Pay attention when restoring the iPhone and select the correct backup to restore from.

When I connect my ipod touch to itunes, itunes automatically downloads all of my old apps onto my ipod. how do I stop it?

when i connect my ipod to itunes it starts a sync and then a backup. then at step 5 of 5 of the backup itunes starts to download all of my old apps to my ipod and then i have to cancel the sync and then on my ipod all of my old apps are grayed out and i cant even delete them. this happens every time i plug my ipod in. how do i turn this automatic download setting off?

Was any error message given? They usually are.
Try resetting the iPod:
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

Automatically download all purchased apps

I had problems with my iPhone and had to restore it. In the meantime I also changed my computer, so I don't have any applications in both of them.
Is there a way, via iTunes, to download all my purchased/downloaded applications automatically?
Thank you

No. You'll need to re-download them one by one. You can check which apps you purchased in iTunes > Store menu > View my account > Purchase history. Then, go to each app in the App Store and click Buy - you will be allowed to download apps you previously paid for at no charge.

How to make Outlook 2013 automatically download all emails?

I have four IMAP email accounts. Currently, my Outlook 2013 only shows new emails when I navigate to the folder they are in. For example, if I navigate to my work email inbox, it suddenly fills with new emails.
Previously, in Outlook 2010, this would be automatically downloaded and the inbox would be refreshed to show a new email. How can I make this happen in Outlook 2013?

Hi,
Please check your settings:
FILE-> Options-> Advanced -> Send and receive, check "Send immediately when connected"
Also, you could set advanced option throught clicking "Send/Receive..."
If the issue persists, please repair your OST/PST file through SCANPST tool, then check the result:

Where is the Album Artwork saved that iTunes doesn't automatically download

I recently downloaded iTunes 7 and I love it's ability to show the album/CD art. Some of my CD's art was available on the iTunes store which the program downloaded automatically but the majority of it I had to find manually online. (Just FYI, Amazon Album Art is a fabulous widget to help with this, <www.widget-foundry.com/widgets/amazonart.htm>) Hours and hours later (large MP3 collection) I'm done. Now, as I have the same music library library on my office computer I want to have the art there as well. I copied the Album Artwork folder from my Home>Music>iTunes folder onto the office computer and launched iTunes but the only artwork visible was the artwork that the iTunes program had automatically downloaded. Where is the artwork that I painstakingly copied/pasted into the iTunes at home? Is it kept somewhere other than the Album Artwork folder?
G4 1.25 Dual Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Artwork that you manually add in the manner you describe is embedded inside the music files themselves (i.e. inside the mp3 files are you using).
Therefore if you use those same mp3 files on another computer the artwork will instantly be available.
Power iTunes users [including myself] prefer this approach [embedding artwork] for exactly this reason. I have therefore taken any artwork iTunes 7 downloaded itself and forced it to embed it in to my music.
I also have a suspicion that simply copying the [downloaded] artwork folder to another computer would probably not work since it appears it is using reference numbers in the file names which would be different on a different computer.
