My photos did not fully restore after I restored my iPhone from iCloud.

How do i get my old photos back?

I am having the exact same issue and I've tried restoring 3 times already and only a few pictures get downloaded but the other ones (over 1000) are just greyed out and won't load... If anyone has a solution please let us know, I have looked everywhere online with no success!

  • How can I restore my iPhone from icloud with 2 different accounts?

    I have two accounts. When I restore my iPhone from icloud with account A, the apps I bought with account B cannot be restored. What can I do?

    The  iCloud account is different from the iTunes store account, although you can use the same ID for both. in your case you can only use one iTunes account at a time to get previously bought apps, music, etc.Once you change to the other one, the stuff from the first account is deleted. In other words you can only realistically use one iTunes account. The same goes with iCloud. you must now decide which account for iTunes you want to stick with. apple does not let you merge two iTunes accounts.

  • Can i restore my iphone from icloud, but from a few months back?

    can i restore my iphone from icloud from a previous back up, running back to may?

    I believe only the most recent backup is saved in iCloud, if that's what you're asking.  If you haven't done an iCloud backup since May, then you could restore from it.  Otherwise, I believe it's been overwritten.
    Here's a good article about iCloud backup and restore:

  • How do I know if I should restore  an iPhone from iCloud or iTunes?

    I'm trying to help my boss's son...he needs to restore his iPhone and he has been backing it up with both iTunes and iCloud.  Which should he use?  Is there a way to check what specific apps are backed up?

    Apps are not backed up at all on itunes.  You should be storing everything on your computer.  if you are doing that, then the apps will be synced back to the iphone when restoring.

  • Just restored my iPhone from iCloud. My wife and I have always shared one iCloud ID. But since my restore, when a call comes in, it rings on both my phone and hers. How can I make this stop?

    Just restored my iPhone 5  from iCloud. My wife and I have always shared one iCloud ID. But since my restore, when a call comes in, it rings on both my phone and hers. How can I make this stop?  We had it all set up fine before the restore, and there was a trick to it in the settings.  I've noticed that since my restore, her phone has picked up what looks like the symbol of a phone in the upper right corner of the display, right next to the Bluetooth symbol.

    Hi Big Slick,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Community!
    It sounds like your iPhones may be using a new feature in iOS 8 called Continuity. The following article and information explains how to set up this feature for phone calls. You can review the information on the setup to reverse this effect. My suggestion would be to turn off FaceTime on one of the devices.
    Connect your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Mac using Continuity
    Phone calls
    With Continuity, you can make and receive cellular phone calls from your iPad, iPod touch, or Mac when your iPhone is on the same Wi-Fi network.
    To make and receive phone calls, here's what you need:
    Sign in to the same iCloud account on all your devices, including your Mac.
    Your iPhone and your iPad or iPod touch need to use iOS 8 or later. Your Mac needs to use OS X Yosemite.
    All devices must be on the same Wi-Fi network.
    All devices must be signed in to FaceTime using the same iCloud account. This means any device that shares your Apple ID will get your phone calls. Look below for instructions on how to turn off iPhone cellular calls.
    Wi-Fi Calling needs to be off. Go to Settings > Phone. If you see Wi-Fi Calling, turn it off.
    Cheers,
    Joe

  • Photos did not come back after restore

    i restored my iPad with a backup but only the albums came back none of the photos are there.

    I Gave up and did and added all the photos from my laptop. Now I need to delete some but that optiob is not working.   Is there away to find and restore and older backup version so I can not use recent backups?

  • Restore my Iphone from Iclouds previous saved date

    Sure is more difficult than I thought.  24 hours and I am still trying to restore from a previous back-up date, because I lost a note sheet with all my passwords.  I guess never trust that anything will work seamlessly.  Can any one tell me is there a better way to restore from a previous back-up with out so much delay?

    Again, iTunes only keeps one normal backup, per device. Any other backups listed are backups created from restore points. These are time/date stamped & are not overwritten.

  • Photos did not download and I deleted them from memory card. how to recover?

    Photos did not download to computer.  I deleted them from memory card.  Is there a way to retrieve them from memory card.

    If all you did was delete them it should be relatively easy to recover them BUT don't use the card until you've done it. Even after a format it's fairly easy but not after re use because you write over them. For more help read the replies here.

    You will need a card reader because I don't think it can be done in camera using the usb cable.

  • Issues restoring iphone from icloud

    Hi,
    Every time I try to restore my iphone from icloud it says, "unable to back up from icloude because wireless connection interrupted".  My phone is plugged in and connected to wi-fi...I also tried having my iphone plugged into my computer while backing up.  Neither worked.  What do I do? 
    Thanks.

    Is your iPhone have a strong Wi-Fi connection? Have you tried testing on another Wi-Fi network?
    Take a look at this Apple document -> iCloud: Troubleshooting restore issues with iCloud Backup
    Troubleshooting issues during a restore
    If you receive an alert during the restore, be sure to note the text of the message, and cross reference it in the Alert Message matrix in the fifth major section of this article. 
    Keep in mind that restoring is dependent on being connected to the Internet, so the faster your connection, the faster your restore will be. However, even with a fast broadband connection, it can often take around 1-4 hours per gigabyte to complete a foreground and background restore. If you are traveling between countries, you may need to allocate even more time. iCloud is tuned to provide you with the best service in the geographical location you most frequently connect from, and in regards to iCloud Backup, the geographical region you created the original backups from.
    If you receive connection errors, or timeouts, while restoring, you should verify your device has a valid connection to a fast Wi-Fi network and that it's plugged into a power source. Then, let it work. A good way to do this is to start the restore an hour or two before you go to sleep. That way, you can input any needed information after the iOS device restarts and the background restore starts, but you will be less likely to use the phone during the background restore. This will allow it to proceed without interruption. Background restore is designed to allow you to use your phone normally, but if you are getting errors, or having trouble completing the restore, it's best to avoid any possible network interruptions and maximize the resources the iOS device can allocate to the restore process, by allowing it to work uninterrupted. Of course, you can check the status of the recovery by unlocking the screen or by reviewing the progress of downloaded applications or Camera Roll content, but in an error-prone situation, it's best to avoid doing work and launching apps unrelated to the restore process.
    As noted earlier, you will receive prompts for your Apple ID and other passwords. This is normal. When you are restoring to a device that you have already backed up from, you should receive fewer prompts to re-enter passwords, but if you are restoring to a new device, it is expected that you will have to re-enter your passwords again. This is done to preserve the integrity of your accounts.

  • How do i recieve the rest of the song i downloaded if it is saying it did not fully download

    A song i have just downloaded did not fully download the song

    Hi Attila528,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If you are not able to receive a rescue email to reset your security questions and password:
    You'll need to contact iTunes Store support to have your questions and answers reset.
    You can find the article with this information here:
    Rescue email address and how to reset Apple ID security questions
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
    After your password, security questions and answers are reset, I'd recommend providing a new rescue email address:
    You can edit or delete your rescue email address at My Apple ID. To edit your rescue email address:
    Navigate to My Apple ID using your web browser.
    Click "Manage your account"
    When prompted, sign in using your Apple ID and password.
    Click Password & Security
    You'll be asked to answer 2 of your 3 security questions before you can make any modifications. If you are unable to remember your answers, you can choose to send an email to your rescue email to reset your security questions.
    All the best,
    Jeremy

  • I use an external HD (WD My Passport) to store my iPhoto photos.  When I backed these up on another EHD (WD My Passport Ultra), thumbnails, and a lot of the photos did not copy (show "!").  Now 1st HD says its on a locked volume?  What happened?

    I use an external HD (WD My Passport) to store my iPhoto photos.  When I copied these up on another EHD (WD My Passport Ultra): thumbnails, and a lot of the photos did not copy (show "!").  Now 1st HD says its on a locked volume?  Why?
    Right before the coping finished (started with a 40 hour copy time (I know it's estimated), and with about 30 minutes left, a window popped up and said there was a name conflict between the two HD.  Then it  wrapped things up in a minute or so.  We had formatted the new EHD for Mac.  What happened?

    Oh my! Obviously, I don't know what I'm doing. But I do know that my goal was to do both---backup AND free some space. My iMAc is old (2006) and I upgraded it a year or so ago to Snow Leopard. I didn't think I had the capability of backing up without an external drive, but  maybe I do since I upgraded. Do I?
    But I bought this My Book mostly for freeing space because I like to make cards in Photoshop and I'm forever running out of space when I get too many layers (don't really know what I'm doing there, either).
    Is there some way that I can rectify my mistakes and start all over?
    Thank you so much for  beng so prompt with your reply and patient with mine. I tried for so long to see the dialog box with the library listings. When I launched iPhoto, even with holding down the Option key, it kept immediately launching into the full screen. Finally, after an hour of doing it over and over again, it worked when I held the key down for 5 minutes. Then when I was typing my reply, I kept getting a message to "Request Time Out." Didn't know how to do that, so kept hitting the OK button and kept typing for another half minute. Finally, when ready to send, Safari couldn't do it. "Try again" exasperated me until I realized I would have to begin again and use Firefox. When I got there and ready to type, I got the message  that my message had been retrienved and did I want to use it?!!
    So your kindness is very much appreciated.

    There is a problem on my mac mini. I install windows7 in my mac then i cancelled the installation did not finish..after that i saw the black screen on my monitor untill now the monitor is black..

    It maybe trying to boot from the incomplete install.
    Try starting your Mac while holding down the Option key, it should then list all the available boot drives including the Mac OS X one. Boot from the Mac one and then you can wipe the damaged PC one or set the Mac to stay booting in to OS X.
