If my iphone is stolen how can i retrieve photos from stolen device via photostream or icloud

My iphone was stolen 1 month ago.  I have set up an ´erase content´ and icloud block via the find my iphone app.  Will I be able to retrieve photos from taken on my stolen iphone via photostream or an icloud restore/back up some how?
Someone has contacted saying they bought my stolen iphone (in peru) and are asking that I unblock my phone.  I have since recieved a new iphone via insurance but would like to now if there is a way to access my photos taken on the stolen device.  Because I have a macbook that is also logged into my icloud account, will i somehow be able to access my old photos from my macbook?

The erase should take place the next time the phone is on and connected to a data network (via wi-fi or cellular). There is no need for them to enter your password. More details: iCloud: Erase your device
They don't have to enter your Apple ID password for that to happen. Do NOT give them your password, now or ever. They do not need to enter anything for the erase to take place. It just needs to connect to a data network (and that may not be possible if the phone is outside of your cellular carrier's area and if it cannot connect to wi-fi).
Do NOT remove the device from your account. The quote below is from If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch is lost or stolen
What if your iOS device is off or offline?
If your missing device is off or offline, you can still put it in Lost Mode, lock it, or remotely erase it. The next time your device is online, these actions will take effect. If you remove the device from your account while it's offline, any pending actions for the device will be cancelled.
There isn't anything else you can do at this point to make the phone erase -- you have done what you can do. If the phone did not have a passcode, they have likely already had access to your data if the phone is in a foreign country since it wouldn't be online (connected to wi-fi or cellular) unless they intentionally did that.

    i lost my iPhone recently and how can i retrieve it using my Apple ID? also, how to turn icloud on using Itunes even if the phone's lost?

    Unless you had enabled Find My iPhone on it before it was lost then there isn't any way to locate it (it can only be turned on directly on the phone, it can't be done remotely). If you did enable it then you could try locating it either via http://icloud.com on a computer or Find My iPhone on another device - but that will only work if it's connected to a network and the device hasn't already been wiped and/or Find My iPhone disabled on it.
    If you think that it was stolen then you should report it to the police. You should also change your iTunes account password, your email account passwords, and any passwords that you'd stored on websites/emails/notes etc.

  • How can I transfer photos from an IPhone 5 to an IPad 2 using a cable.  I have tried using the lightning to firewire adapter with my current lead but this only seems to allow a download from the Ipad to the Iphone and not the other way around.

    The devices are not designed for transfer of that kind.  Use Photo Stream as suggested by another poster, or transfer photos to your computer (a good idea anyway since they will be lost if your device needs to be reset), then use iTunes to sync them to the other devices.

    Pics taken with the iphone are imported to your computer as with any other digital camera ( as explained in the manual).
    Pics synced to your iphone from your computer should still be on the computer.

    Another way is via Photo Stream. The following gives more details and the section titled "When do photos upload to Photo Stream" gives instructions on how to manually control which pictures upload from a computer to an iPhone: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4486

  • HT201302 how can i import photos from iphone to pc

    how can i import photos from iphone to pc?

    For photos taken with the iPhone or saved from emails/websites then on a PC you should be able to use the Windows Camera Wizard or just copy them via Windows Explorer (there is more info on this page).
    For photos that were originally synced from a computer you will need a third-party app such as Simple Transfer which can copy them off via your wifi network. But as photos are 'optimised' when they are synced to the iPhone, any that you then copy back to a computer may not be exactly the same as they originally were on your computer.

  • HT201302 how can i delete photos from my iphone after uploading in Iphoto even if i say not to keep on phone

    how can i delete photos from my iphone after uploading in Iphoto even if i say not to keep on phone

    Hello paolo@spring,
    Just as photos that were taken more than 30 days ago remain on your MacBook Air, so will photos that are deleted from your iPhone.
    Photos in My Photo Stream are saved on the iCloud server for 30 days.
    Because your Mac and PC have more storage than your iOS devices, you can choose to download all of your My Photo Stream photos automatically.
    In iPhoto or Aperture preferences on your Mac, select Photos (or Photo Stream) > My Photo Stream > Automatic Import. All of your photo stream photos will import into your Events, Projects, Photos, Faces, and Places folders in iPhoto or Aperture.

    how can i retrieve texts from an earlier back up without changing all the other settings on my iphone?

    You can't. Restoring from a backup is all or none.
    You can use a utility such as this one to extract the messages from the backup on your computer but you can't re-transfer the messages to the Messages app on your iPhone.

  • How can I delete photos from my iPad, iPhone, and laptop at the same time?

    How can I delete photos from my iPad, iPhone, and laptop at the same time so I don't have to do it separately on each device?

    Photos that were synced from your computer using iTunes can only be deleted by de-selecting them from the folder from where they were synced -  and then re-syncing.
    Connect the iPad to the PC and launch iTunes.
    Click on the iPad name on the left side under devices.
    Click on the Photos Tab on the right.
    If you want to remove all of the Photos - uncheck the Sync Photos from Heading
    Click on Apply in the lower right corner of iTunes
    If you are using iTunes 11 - this will be helpful, Setting up syncing in Windows.
