Is there a way to download my files stored on icloud to my iphone?

why do i need to download and subscribe to dropbox, to be able to share my own file between mbp an iphone5?! why can't i download my files using icloud?!
this is some kind of ridiculous, because 5 years ago, filesharing was much easier than today... and why is it that difficult? because Apple disables functions that have existed since years!
finally icloud is only useable for iphone system backups, that you may never need. it is as useless as ibooks, passbook reminders, notes, voice memos, newsstand and so long. even your bluetooth connection is 100%useless without filesharing enabled... since 3 months i never used bluetooth.
You are going backwards in evolution, Apple!

Apple does not reading this forum. Its only user to user forum.
If you don't like iCloud don't use it.
You can use Dropbox to transfer files over Internet or an app (like Files) to transfer files over your local network (much faster)

  • Is there a way to download the files form you iCloud backup?  Not restore but actually download the files.

    Is there a way to retrieve your backup files from iCloud?  Wehn you backup locally, you can get to the actual backup files.  Is there a way to retrieve these from iCloud?  I want to actually examine the individual files.

    AFAIK, no, nor is there anyway to view your icloud backup.

  • Is there a way to see a file browser on iCloud? It says my account is filled up to 5G already and I can't imagine what it moved over to there that was that big.

    Is there a way to see a file browser on iCloud? It says my account is filled up to 5G already and I can't imagine what it moved over to there that was that big.
    I'm wondering if it moved my rhapsody music to the cloud (which is pointless) so I shut off 'document' sharing in case that's the problem, but it's still saying I'm at 5G right now.
    When I go to icloud.com all I see is the dumb app icons, with no clue as to what's taking up that disk space.
    btw, I did not sync photos from the get-go.
    A file browser? please? I need to see my cloud.
    sigh

    Have you enabled Automatic Downloads on all of your devices? This would download all of the books to all of your devices when you download on any device - as long as you are using the same Apple ID and iTunes account on all of your devices.
    Go to Settings>Store>Automatic Downloads>Books>On. When you download a book on one iDevice, it will download to all of your iDevices. This will only work for downloads moving forward from the moment that you turn the setting on. You will have to download the previously purchased books to all of your other devices.
    With iCloud, you can start reading the book on one device and then pickup where you left off on another device.

  • HT201269 Is there a way to download/port the missing data/SMS to one iPhone without overwriting the new SMS on the newer iPhone?

    SMS Transferring/downloading/backup : Is there a way to download/port the missing data/SMS to one iPhone without overwriting the new SMS on the newer iPhone? Here is my dilemma. My iPhone quit working and I couldn’t get it fixed as quickly as I needed to. I bought a used iPhone and started using it normally and downloaded the backup from itunes/icloud. There was a large gap in data where the first iPhone didn’t backup when I thought it had. I have SMS data on both phonesnow and  I need them for a court hearing. I have since had the other iPhone repaired and working perfectly. Will downloading a backup wipe out the newer SMS data? I am nervous because I can’t lose the information or my case mey be compromised. Any “Real Help” including programs that work to accomplish this would be very helpful. Thank You in advance…

    No, direct access to manipulating the phone's filesystem is not permitted for 3rd party apps in the iOS.  It can't be done without hacking the phone, which you certainly don't want to do.  The messages can be combined and viewed on your computer, but not on a single phone.

  • Is there a way to download pictures from a camera directly to my iphone

  • Is there a way to see what files iTunes just synced with my iPhone?

    OK, I've been working with my music files trying to find some sort of work-around to iTunes not updating or deleting my lyrics on my iPhone.  I been working on one music file at a time.  I'll make a change of some sort, then have iTunes "Sync" to my iPhone which is connected directly  to the laptop.
    I've only updated ONE file, but I see iTunes syncing many files.  The first time I can see why, but I'm doing my syncing mere minutes apart, so after the first sync, I would think the only thing to be "synced" would be the one music file I just changed, but I keep seeing others.
    The problem is, the list of files being synced goes by too fast to read.
    Is there a way in iTunes to see a list of what files it just synced with my iPhone?
    I'm using iTunes 11 on a Windows 7 Home Premium system.

    What exactly does the Library item contain?
    Have you thought of changing the Library item to a Server Side Include instead?
    Takes all the tedium out of updating by letting the server do the mundane work for you.
    Create one text file (containing the current Library item code), add a single include statement in all website pages to include the text file. Upload. The entire website is then up-to-date.
    To update all affected pages in future, you merely edit the one small text file (the Include), upload and you're done.

  • Is there a way to download my address book from icloud?

    i just lost all my contacts while using a backup app distributed by my wireless provider.
    is there a way i can download just my contacts without connecting my iphone to the computer?

    Hi,
    Go to settings/icloud on your phone. Make sure you are logged with your apple id.
    Contacts should be on, click on it to turn it off and choose keep (even though you show no contacts)
    When the process is done go ahead and turn on contacts again, choose merge. All your contacts should show up if you had a previous backup to icloud.
    Hope this helps

  • Is there a way to download a file into an ipad without going through itunes?

    I am trying to do it in a similar way to that of an Android device. I would like to have someone with an Apple device scan a QR code which pulls a zip file on to their device and then from there (without using iTunes) extract and load the file into an app already installed on the device.
    Is this possible? What is the fastest, easiest, most effecient way to do this?

  • Is there a way to download a file on to another presentation server?

    Hello experts,
    I m developing a program , main task of which , is to download the data (that i have populated into an internal table from various database tables) onto another sytem (another presentation server).

    If your old computer is capable of running Mountain Lion, you can download it on that machine. (If not, you cannot.) Once you have downloaded it, the installer will start. Just quit the installer, then go find it in the Applications folder. Next, make a bootable install disk from the installer by following these directions:

  • Is there a way to store PDF files and read them on your iPhone?

    I noticed that you can read PDF files on the Internet, but it takes a bit of time to appear. Another problem was that it is hard to scroll because you can only scroll about one page at a time with the finger flicking.
    Also is it possible to have portable browser on your iPhone?

    Well, sounds like you may be stuck---some potential approaches:
    Look at the file sharing apps to see if any offer special PDF features like bookmarks or saving your place (FileMagnet, AirSharing, etc, there are lots of them). You can even add bookmarks in Preview, though I have no idea whether any other app can read them. I know reading PDFs as email attachments does not save your place--I would expect some other apps to do better with that.
    See if Calibre does any better with images in conversion:
    http://calibre.kovidgoyal.net/
    Run OCR software on Google's PDF to convert it to text.
    Since Google does a text search on them, the text is somewhere. Though maybe only Google can access it, it may not be in the PDF file but stored separately.
    For some books, Google Books offers an HTML or plain text version. See if you can download that one instead (may still want to convert via Stanza).
    See if some of the books you want might be in Gutenberg:

  • Is there a way to download the other photo albums off of my iphone

    About 2 months ago my computer crashed and i lost everything. including all my photos.
    The photos stayed on my iphone and are still seperated into the albums that iphoto made but when i go to sync it with iphoto i can only import the photos i have taken with my camera not the other albums.
    is there anyway to download the other albums off of my iphone so i can have those photos back?

    When you installed Win 7, did you lose all other data on your computer in addition to your iTunes library and photos, or did you create a backup for other data beforehand which didn't include your iTunes library and photos stored on your computer's hard drive?
    The iPhone is not designed nor intended to be a backup device and for many people, a 16GB iPhone does not store their entire iTunes library. Even if you transfer all photos available on your computer to your iPhone, all photos are optimized for viewing on your iPhone, so if Apple did support transferring these photos in the opposite direction, the original resolution of these photos would be lost.
