My photos are not transferring from the cloud to my new phone

I bought a iPhone 5s when transferring my old photos from the cloud. Only 16 of the photos transferred to the new phone, the rest of them just say downloading. How do I get the rest of my photos? 

If it appears to not be making any progress even though you have a strong wifi signal, sometimes turning the phone off, then back on will get things going again.  Otherwise about all you can do is try restoring the backup again.  If you still have the old phone, you could also try creating an iTunes backup, then restoring that backup to your new phone.

    Hi Lifebydesign101,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    I believe you are asking about Photo Stream here.  However, pictures are not transferred from the iPad to the iPhone.  I'll include some information about My Photo Stream and troubleshooting steps below:

  • HT201272 The last 2 songs I purchased, Treasure and Take Back the Night, are not downloading from the cloud on either my iphone or ipad.  I have tried the previous suggestions.  Can you offer further advice.

    The last 2 songs I purchased, Treasure and Take Back the Night, are not downloading from the cloud on my iPhone 4 or my iPad2.  I have tried previous suggestions on the support page.  Can anyone suggest further solutions?

    Hello BwarsIG88
    Check your purchase history by going to the iTunes Store and then click on purchases. From there you can see all your purchase history and download what you are missing.

  • I can no longer shoot directly into phaseone software since i use my new macbook pro with retina display. pictures are not transfered from the camera into captureone. anyone else with this problem? any solutions?

    i can no longer shoot directly into phaseone software - neihter version 6 or 7 - since i use my new macbook pro with retina display. pictures are not transfered from the camera into captureone. anyone else with this problem? any solutions?

    My eyes just glazed over...Please in the future break down each of your issues with paragraphs separated by two carriage returns. It would be much easier when trying to address your issues.
    Go to Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Keyboard and Mouse -> Mouse
    And edit your mouse settings to do what you want it to do.
    Secondly, this is not the place to vent. If you have a complaint, there is:
    http://www.apple.com/feedback/
    or http://www.apple.com/contact/
    We are just end users here helping other end users.
    Third, from my understanding, it would appear you are concerned about the noise the hard drive makes when it falls asleep? Why not put your machine in screen saver mode instead? Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Energy Saver turn off all Energy Saver settings, or set them to run Never.
    Fourth, if your machine was purchased just a few days ago, you may still be able to get an exchange from the store, quicker than you can get a repair done. You may want to look into that possibility.
    Fifth, it does appear you found the Logic forum. I would persist in asking there how to solve your technical issue with Logic regarding the audio. It may be you don't have to do anything special to the hard drive. Remember audio can be transmitted by wire, avoiding ambient sounds.
    Good luck!

  • HT201077 MY PHOTOS STOPPED UPLOADING FROM THE CLOUD ON MY NEW PHONE

    MY PHOTOS STOPPED UPLOADING FROM THE CLOUD ON MY NEW PHONE

    Check to see if they appear in the My Photo Stream album on the device that the photos were taken on.  If they are, then they were successfully added to your photo stream.  If not, ensure that after taking the photo your device is connected to wifi, the camera app is closed and your device has at least 20% battery life remaining.  All three conditions must be met for a photo to be added to your photo stream.  If they are, and photos are still not being added to photo stream, save any existing photo stream photos on your device to your camera roll (unless already there), then go to Settings>iCloud>Photos, turn My Photo Stream off, then turn it back on.  Take a new photo, close the camera app, make sure your device is connected to wifi with sufficient battery life remaining and see if it appears in the my photo stream album within a minute or so now.

  • HT201077 Since upgrading to IOS 7'photos taken on my iPhone are not transferring to the cloud. Sometimes a few will up load but then nothing for weeks. Anyone else had this problem

    Since upgrading to IOS 7 the photographs I take on my iPhone 4S do not transfer to the cloud. Sometimes one or two of them transfer but then none for weeks. I have deleted photos from the cloud in case it is full but to no affect. I use my iPhone in conjunction with an iPad so this is driving me mad. Anyone else have this problem?

    No you're not the only one having this problem in fact many people are having it I spoke to Apple support today about it. First it is my opinion the aspect ratio is different on iPhone 4s compared to iPhone 5s, however I really feel it is a software issue. Just to make sure I am having the same problem you are I will describe my issue. I Have confirmed the following: if I Center an object on my iPhone 4s screen and open the picture while I am still in the app (open on the bottom left it)looks fine. But when I open camera roll and open that particular picture it's also fine
    Until I scroll left or right it pulls the image to the left side appearing to cut off the left side of the image. After talking to Apple support today and my knowledge with Apple products I strongly suspect this is a software issue. Apple asked me to do a restore as a new phone but I'm not going to go through all that nonsense when I believe it's a software issue and not a hardware issue. So again to recap to answer your question you're not alone, theses sort of things are expected when they rollout a new iOS just hang in there and let's see if they put a patch out for next update.

  • How to download pictures from the cloud to a new phone

    I have a new iPhone 6 plus and want to get my pictures from my iphone 4s.  they are backed up to the cloud.

    Pictures are not "backed up" to iCloud, with the exception of their inclusion in a full backup of the device. If they are in Photo Stream, then they will be in the Photo Stream tab in the Photos app once you sign into iCloud on the iPhone 6. If they are part of a backup, then you need to choose "Restore from iCloud Backup" during the setup process on the iPhone 6. If you've already set it up, go to Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings, to start over.

  • My photos are not restoring from my iCloud Backup !, My photos are not restoring from the iCloud Backup! What should I do to make it alright ? Please help !

    How can I restore the photos which I restored in my iCloud Backup ?
    Does not restore ! Just remaims idle !
    Pls help !

    I fixed this issue after a lot of time and pain (see below)
    Seems to have come up on various threads so it seems to be an issue and should be escalated by Apple. They were none the wiser at the genius bar apart from telling me the iCloud backup is probably corrupted and I should call Apple care (as if that is going to do anything)

    I experienced the same problem with the iCloud restore not working properly. I had my iPhone 4 replaced as the home button was defective. When attempting to restore an 9.5GB iCloud backup from the day before it just would not work properly. Firstly, half my apps did not restore, they would begin to download showing the progress indicator then just disappear, leaving my home screen naked. No big deal as apps can be downloaded again.
    However, what was a big deal for me was the 1,625 photos on my camera roll, including many of the first year of my kid's life. The camera roll would say downloading x of 1,625 photos, download a few of them, then simply stop downloading any new shots. When I would restart the phone it did not show any downloading message, it believed the restore was complete. I tried about ten different restore scenarios, listed below, all of which gave me varying results (some resulting in all my apps restoring) but all of which would only give me some of my photos back.
    What was a comfort was that I once got about 700 of the shots back. So the photos were still in the cloud rather than gone and this indicated that it was the restore process or the iCloud backup on my phone that was the problem. These are the things I tried in sequence as I despairingly tried to get my photos back...
    Things I tried that DID NOT work
    1) Erase all settings and attempt to restore again from scratch (four times)
    2) Tried the restore from a different WiFi network (once)
    3) Tried the restore from one WiFi network then switched to another once the restore 'hung' (once)
    4) Tried the restore from an Apple store WiFi network (once)
    5) Tried the restore from a previous iCloud backup (twice)
    6) Had Apple replace the iPhone 4 (once)
    With all of these I got a varying amount of my photos and apps back before it stopped restoring. I was also making the mistake (I learnt afterwards) of opening and moving between apps during the download to check progress.
    Thing I tried that DID work
    1) Did not plug the phone into my MacBook, I used the wall charger only to prevent any iTunes sync activity
    2) Erase all settings and data, restore from the iCloud backup and input passwords in all the pop up windows once it reboots.
    2) Open photos app gallery to see photos downloading and show the progress message "downloading xx of x,xxx"
    3) Left it on this photo screen and did not touch the phone at all for the entire restore. I did not close the photo galley/camera roll app once, open any other apps.
    Finally this time round it work and all my photos and apps restored in full. I am going to go back to syncing with iTunes as I don't trust iCloud for restores. It seems that iCloud does not handle photo restores that well, especially if the gallery is large. In short: Wall charger only, restore from iCloud, open Photos app, don't touch. Really hope this works for you too if you've had the same issue.

  • HT201269 No pictures from the last year transferred from the cloud to my new iphone 5. Where are they?

    All my pics from the last year are missing on my new iphone 5. Is it somewhere in the icloud?

    Who is your servicer? Each cell phone servicer should have a number you can call and they should be able to transfer service to your new phone over the phone. You will need another phone on which to make that call (a frien's or use skype) and they'll need information in the new phone settiings.

  • From the cloud to my new phone?

    I just got a new iphone but its the 8gb and my old one was the 32gb. Now all my stuff doesnt fit. At the verizon store they told me since they have the cloud now, u dont need that much memory? I need to get my pics from old phone off cloud to new phone.

    A couple of things.  iCloud does not stream any content in real time, so while you can store things there and shuffle them back and forth, it is not as if you can instantly and actively access your iCloud material (ie. you cannot store your music on iCloud and play it on your phone - you can download and replace the music on the device peridocially, but you can only actively access what is on the phone).
    Second, you only get 5Gb of storage for free, and any storage needs beyond that you will have to pay for annually with iCloud.
    So, if you still want everything that you had on your old phone to be readily accessible on the new phone, I'd consider taking it back to verizon and exchange it for a 32 or 64Gb model.
    And the previous post is correct - the iPhone 4s is only available in 16, 32 and 64 Gb.  The iPhone 4 is available in 8Gb as is the (now free with contract) iPhone 3Gs.

  • I am trying to sync my itunes from the cloud onto a new phone but my boyfriend and I share a computer and it keeps coming up with his information to transfer. How do i change it to my information?

    Hi,
    I am trying to upgrade to a new phone and when I plug it in the computer it thinks I am my boyfriends itune even though I signed in as myself. How do I make the computer think that it is my cloud itune information that I want to restore onto this phone?  I have already authorized this computer.

    To use iTunes, you need to first backup your old iPhone to this computer, then you can restore your new iPhone from this backup on this computer.

    You don't.

  • My photos are not  transferring to other devices

    Photos contained in your iPhone backup cannot be restored on an iPad, but they should restore to your iPhone.

  • My photos are not streaming from my iPhone 4 to my iPad 7.  The settings are correct and it always has before I had a recent holiday in Cuba. Those photos didn't stream and now new photos since home in Vancouver, Canada are not?

    My photos are not streaming from my iPhone 4 to my iPad 7.  The settings are correct and it always has before I had a recent holiday in Cuba. Those photos didn't stream and now new photos since home in Vancouver, Canada are not? Both are updated to IOS 7.1.2

    Hmm... It looks like they are gone forever now then. I can't think of any other way of getting them back apart from restoring from an iTunes or iCloud backup. Somebody else might be able to help but I think they're gone forever. I don't know why they were wiped from your iPod but it could be something to do with security. In the future I would recommend syncing to iTunes or iCloud to prevent it from happening again. You can always make a reservation at the Genius Bar and see what those guys can do because it seems that they are still there, they are just 'hidden' from view. http://concierge.apple.com/reservation/gb/en/techsupport/
