If iCloud can back up my photos then how come i cannot find a way to access iCloud!

i have recently deleted much loved photos of my ipad without thinking and they have disapeared off my camera roll, people on the apple support community say i can retrieve them by using the iCloud back up which is already enabled on my "new ipad" the real question is how do i even access iCloud and how am i meant to get my photos back!

i have followed each step as you set out.
settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup, then it gives me the option to buy more storage, turn my iCloud on/off and to back up my ipad, as well as show my last backup on the 9/04/12  7:15 PM
i have also plugged my device into my computer to activate iTunes, iCloud does not show up anywhere.
the 3 recent back ups you proclaim to be available are not within reach.
the steps i have currently followed by the link you just sent me was Settings> iCloud > Storage & backup > Manage storage > (under backups clicked on) Janes ipad. all it has shown me is what i want to back up, i really wanted to know how to actually recover lost data not save what i have left, can i still do that and how?

    Restore the iPhone from your backup.
    See this -> http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766
    Then make sure you sync everything to your computer so you do not lose it.

    What To Do If Your iDevice Is Lost Or Stolen
    iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad
    If you activated Find My Phone before it was lost or stolen, you can track it only if it is connected to the Internet by Wi-Fi or cellular. What you cannot do is track your device using a serial number or other identifying number. You cannot expect Apple or anyone else to find your device for you. You cannot recover your loss unless you insure your device for such loss. It is not covered by your warranty.
    If your iPhone, iPod, iPod Touch, or iPad is lost or stolen what do you do? There are things you should have done in advance - before you lost it or it was stolen - and some things to do after the fact. Here are some suggestions:
    This link, Re: Help! I misplaced / lost my iPhone 5 today morning in delta Chelsea hotel downtown an I am not able to track it. Please help!, has some good advice regarding your options when your iDevice is lost or stolen.

    I am using a MacBook Pro.  I simply cannot find a way to attach images adjusted in Lightroom as attachments and/or without massive degradation in quality.  I follow the LR attach email process as specified by LR, the photos appear in the email seemingly embedded and the recipients of the email cannot save the attachment.

    You are welcome.  Just finished a chat session with an Apple support rep and confirmed the matte option no longer available.  Seems lots has changed since I bought my 17” 19 months back:).  They did say that there were after market screen films available from places like amazon
    Have never used anything like that though.  My wife has a 2008 MBP 15” with gloss and I can say it is a nice screen finish, you just have to be careful of lighting from behind you.  All my iMacs were glossy and I did learn to compensate for the added brilliance the screen brought to the photos.  The new soft proofing feature of LR5 seems to better estimate the level of brightness of the printed work, compared to past versions of the s/ware.
    In any case, in my opinion you really can’t go wrong with the apple product.  I bought my first iMac in mid 1999 and have never looked back.  I donated that machine to a pre-school in 2008, it was running OSX version 2 or 3 I think.  I did run Photoshop 7.0 on an IBM laptop for a time (windows XP).  I think I had one of the very first versions of Adobe Camera Raw on that machine.  I digress, sorry.
    The chat representative did confirm that the 17” is out of production and I’m guessing Apple found the market for the big laptop just wasn’t there.  They did mention that 17” MBP’s show up as “certified refurbished” units from time to time.  Suggest you might explore that option with a local Apple store in the UK, assuming  Apple has store front operations off this continent of course.
    Please feel free to contact me with further questions if you wish.
    Take care, Gordy

    If you purchased Lion for your iMac, just log into the Mac App Store from your MacBook using the Apple ID under which you purchased Lion and go to the Purchases page. You will be able to download and install Lion there. 
    searching the internet i found a link to upgrtade to 10.7
    The only place you get get Lion is from the Mac App Store. If you found some other site, that was an illegal copy and almost certainly tied to someone else's Apple ID and hence unusable by you. If the link was just to the Mac App Store, see above.
    As to the problem with synchronization to iCloud, that's not a 10.6 question, so I'd suggest you take up that specific issue in either the Lion or iCloud forums, providing full details, and someone there can probably help you sort things out.
    Regards.

  • How do I re-import photos that Lightroom says it "cannot find."

    I have gone to a half-day workshop on Lightroom 5.  I have purchased and started reading Scott Kelby's Lightroom 5 for Digital Photographers, but find it rather cumbersome and unhelpful.  And all I am trying to do is ORGANIZE and import photos (I am only now on Chapter 1).  I have used Photoshop Elements for years, and found it very user friendly. Not so with Lightroom, for me!!!
    I was trying to organize my photos in my external hard drive. 
    1.  I noticed that some photos I thought I had imported from my SanDisk 16 gb "chip" to the external drive don't seem to be available in Lightroom, because I get a message like "Cannot find files."
    2. I tried to re-import these photos, but Lightroom seems to think they are somewhere, and won't let me import from my SanDisk again.
    3. Trying ot solve this problem I clicked "Merge" on the photos in my external hard drive, but that only put all my photos in one folder, now not according to date. I want to revert to saving them by DATE, not "merged" into one file
    4. I checked in Scott Kelby's index under "merge" it does not refer to a problem with managing photos.
    5. Help me learn the following:
    A. How to correct the "merge" which put all the photos in one folder, not by date, so that they are again organized by date.
    B. How to find the photos that Lightroom says it cannot find, or download them again, or whatever to solve the missing photo problem

    1. I noticed that some photos I thought I had imported from my SanDisk 16 gb "chip" to the external drive don't seem to be available in Lightroom, because I get a message like "Cannot find files."
    Could you please give us the EXACT error message?
    Then I clicked on IMPORT. Was this the correct way of downloading, because when I do that, in the top LEFT corner of the Lightroom screen, it indicates that it is “downloading photos,” but nothing seems to download.
    This sounds to me like a hardware problem ... either the card reader or the card itself is not responding.
    With regards to the bulk of the rest of your problems, it might make sense to start over. Remove the files from your hard disk using your operating system (assuming they are still on your camera card), create a new empty catalog in Lightroom (File->New Catalog), and import them again from your camera cards. Perhaps instead of following Kelby's advice, follow other advice on importing and organizing, such as:
    http://tv.adobe.com/watch/learn-lightroom-5/importing-photos-from-a-cf-card/
    http://tv.adobe.com/watch/getting-started-with-adobe-photoshop-lightroom-5/lightroom-5-imp orting-your-images
    http://tv.adobe.com/watch/getting-started-with-adobe-photoshop-lightroom-5/lightroom-5-org anizing-your-images/
    It is also my opinion that if you read Scott Kelby's books and start where he discusses how to edit photos, you will probably find the book to be useful; however if you read Scott Kelby's books where he discusses importing and organizing, it is my opinion that his advice is off-the-mark and not helpful. If you want to read a good book on organizing, try http://thedambook.com/

    Add it to your cart.  Then, when you're on the cart screen, scroll down and you'll see a choice for AppleCare+ with an Add To Cart button!
    I also called the Apple Store and their agents confirmed that it does apply to the refurbished models!
