New iphone6 icloud restore only half photos

So i got the new iPhone 6 a few weeks ago. When i got it i did the icloud restore everything came back contacts, apps,notes but only half my photos came back. The most recent ones show up fine but the other ones show up in the right album and shows the time, date and place of the photos but when i click on it, it just says downloading I tried to let it download a few days nothing happened. Ive tried re restoring it a few times I get the same thing. Also I didnt hae it backed up on my itunes only iCloud any help would be great i lost alot of important pics. thank for any help

Sorry to barge in but been troubleshooting my problem for 3 days and I think I need anger management classes now.
My goal is to install Logic Pro. My internal HD is full. Bought a new Internal Hitachi Deskstar 500GB. Installed it. After restart it is recognized. I formatted it and ultimately want it to be my master boot HD. Now Logic needs an OS to operate so I am trying to install OS X from my original "Power Mac G4 Software Install and Restore" disc. CD/DVD combo drive reads the disc, I execute the installer, then it asks me to restart. Problem is, on restart at the installer screen my Keyboard and mouse dont work so I cant do the install. Tried bypassing my USB hub by plugging directly into Mac, tried pressing the "C" key on startup, tried the "Option" key on restart, tried disconnecting my original HD, and nuttin. Uggggg!
Oh, by BTW, I have a G4 PPC (mirrored door type) currently running OS X Tiger 10.4.11.
Desperate,
Trake

HT1229 When i copy my iPhoto file (261 GB) in a new location i see only 30 photos

Problems moving iPhoto library

Sorry - do you want help? If so you must give more than "something does not work"
What version of iPhoto? Is OS X 10.5.2 as you state correct for your OS? What format is the drive that you moved the iphoto library to? How exactly did you move it?
the general answer is
Moving the iPhoto library is safe and simple - quit iPhoto and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity to the external drive - depress the option key and launch iPhoto using the "select library" option to point to the new location on the external drive - fully test it and then trash the old library on the internal drive (test one more time prior to emptying the trash)
And be sure that the External drive is formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) (iPhoto does not work with drives with other formats) and that it is always available prior to launching iPhoto
And backup soon and often - having your iPhoto library on an external drive is not a backup and if you are using Time Machine you need to check and be sure that TM is backing up your external drive

Restore problem - only half of my apps/settings were restored

Yesterday i've update my iPhone os to 5. My problem is that itunes restored only half of my apps and settings. How i can fix this?
Thanks,
MM

Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on your router
.- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

Restoring only specific folders from a Time Machine backup

I am sorry if this is not the right community to ask this question. I truly was not sure where to post this as it involves the OS, iOS, Time Machine, iTunes...
I am trying to restore ONLY my photos from a MobileSync folder located on my Time Machine backup. I do not know how to go about restoring just the photos or if this is even possible? Possibly restore the entire Backup folder if needed. Whatever it takes. I know this sounds odd but my brother passed away and I lost all of the photos on my phone when I upgraded to iOS 7. Some of which have no copies floating around elsewhere. I attempted to retore from backup through iTunes and was informed my previous backup was damaged. I am currently using the latest version of Mavericks and iTunes 11.1.3. The backup I would like to recover files from is a Snow Leapord backup dating back to July of 2013 and from an iPhone 4. I currently have an iPhone 5.
Any help, guidance or insight would be greatly appreciated as I had hoped to print and frame these photos for family members.
Thank you.

You should be able to just restore the photos.
First though, you might consider making a backup of the drive that has the photos on it. I would get another external HD (anything except WD will do), and use CarbonCopyCloner to clone the drive.
What you would do to restore the photos is just click on the drive that has the Time Machine backups on it, and navigate to one of the backups or the MobileSync folder. In TM the backups are arranged by date; I'm not sure about MobileSync. Then you just open the backup and navigate to the photos, and drag the folder with the photos to your desktop.
I am sure the people at your local Apple store would help you.
Sorry for your loss.

HT4890 I had a new I phone and I turned on iCloud and photostream , then only some photos from my old iPhone that I thought it was stored to my iCloud appeared in my new iPhone not all the old photos what can I do to restore my photos

I had a new I phone and I turned on iCloud and photostream , then only some photos from my old iPhone that I thought it was stored to my iCloud appeared in my new iPhone not all the old photos what can I do to restore my photos

Can you just back-up the old phone to iTunes and restore it from there?

I have 10Gb of photos on my iphone, so can choose only half of it (5Gb) and share it with icloud and leave the rest on my phone storage, or i must share all photos and videos (my whole camera roll)

No. Your iCloud account only includes your the camera roll photos stored in the backup. And they can only be accessed by restoring the backup to your phone. Also, if you delete any photos from your camera roll and continue to back up, the backup that contained the deleted photos would be overwritten by one that doesn't and they would be lost.
If you want to save some of them and delete them from your phone, import them to your computer as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.
Another option is to import all of them to your computer and delete them from your phone, then put the ones you want on your phone in a folder and sync them back to your phone by selecting the folder on the photos tab of your iTunes sync settings and syncing. The advantage of this approach is that synced photos are placed in an album called Photo Library, which is not included in the iCloud backup (since they are already backed up on your computer), thereby saving space in your iCloud account (which only backs up camera roll photos).

Hello i just came back from the apple store and they had to restore my phone and i just downloaded all my apps and music back but my photos that are on icloud i only got 80 out of 768 back. what do i do to get all of them back?

If you tried to restore to your iCloud backup and your photos didn't fully restore, first go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup and make sure it isn't still in the process of restoring.
If the restore is complete and all your photos weren't restored, all you can do is try restoring the backup again. You might try the solution posted by ezjules in this discussion: https://discussions.apple.com/message/19518589#19518589. This involves opening the photos app after the phone restarts and you provide the passwords for your Apple IDs, then leaving it open for the remainder of the restore process.

I received an Iphone 5 as a gift two days ago. The first thing I did was set up ICloud for photos. Itunes would not allow me to add songs to my new phone without restoring it, yet when I did this, it deleted all photos. And I cannot find them anywhere.

I received an Iphone 5 as a gift two days ago. The first thing I did was set up ICloud for photos. Itunes would not allow me to add songs to my new phone without restoring it, yet when I did this, it deleted all 129 photos of my graduation and friends from the past two days. And I cannot find them anywhere, photo stream, ICloud, nothing. Where can I get back my memories?

Were the photos taken by your new iPhone? If so, did you not import them off your phone to your computer (as you would any other digital camera) before the restore? If not, restoring wiped the data off the phone and your pictures are gone.
Sounds like a good time to (re)read the User Guide.

If you had Photo Stream enabled with your iCloud account settings on the iPhone, photos in the Camera Roll should have been transferred to your photo steam automatically when the iPhone was connected to an available wi-fi network.
Your photo stream is not available when logging in with your iCloud account with a browser on a computer.
Why were the photos in the Camera Roll deleted?
Photos/videos in the camera roll are included with your iPhones backup. If your iPhone's backup has not been updated since the photos were deleted from the camera roll, you can try restoring your iPhone from the backup.

I have upgraded my iphone 3gs to ios 5.1 and backed up my photos etc on to my computer, but only half of my pictures were restored

I recently upgraded my iphone to ios 5.1 and before I did this I backed up all my photos etc on to my itunes. When the upgrade was complete, all of my photos and videos had not been restored and some of them will not display or play.
I did a restore from my back up and approx only half of them were restored.
Can these missing pictures and videos be recovered

The iOS5 upgrade has made a mess of the bluetooth connectivity. iPhone4 was paired perfectly to 2012 VW GTI and played all playlists fine. After upgrade, can see the song, see the timer counting down as if it is playing, but no sound. AND iPhone 4s paired paired with 2008 BMW handsfree telephone before the update, now I can't use the phone in the car. WHAT GIVES??? Anyone with ideas out there???

Why do only some photos appear in iCloud folder on my PC and not all taken on iPhone appear on iPad either? All settings seem correct and new photos now seem to be appearing on all devices, but not all older or recent photos

Why do only some photos appear in iCloud folder on my PC and not all taken on iPhone appear on iPad either? All settings seem correct and new photos now seem to be appearing on all devices, but not all older or recent photos, even if taken at same time. All advice greatly appreciated.

First, to access documents you must use an app designed for that specific Document type. So Pages will not be able to open PDFs. The Documents app by Readdle can handle PDFs though. In the latter case, you'd open the app, click the menu icon at its top left, and click Open to go to your iCloud Drive. With Pages, if you had files outside the main Pages folder, click + then iCloud and navigate to the file's location.

New HD and time machine restore was interrupted. Only half of data transferred.

My HD has been replaced and when backing up from my time machine the transferred got interrupted. When Mac book booted only half the data. So I erased the hard drive to start again although I now can't restore from my time machine as its saying not enough space on HD to restore. Please help coz I'm freaking out!

Follow these instructions for reinstall 10.6, you will need to erase the ENTIRE drive by selecting the drive makers name and size on the left while booted from the 10.6 disk that came with your machine as this is the machine specific version with your free iLife included.
How to erase and install Snow Leopard 10.6
If you use the white 10.6 disk, (it's 10.6.3) then that doesn't have the free iLife, but if you later purchased it from AppStore it can be redownloaded when you get to 10.8 again.
(ideally that older machine should stick with 10.6.8, but you have your files already in 10.8 on the TM drive, so...)
Make sure you erase the entire drive with the Security Erase Zero All Data option, this will "pre-map" off any potentially failing sectors on the drive before they fail with your data on it, it makes your machine a lot more reliable.
Reducing bad sectors effect on hard drives
Once that's all done, log in and setup with your same user name as before (important) and Software Update to 10.6.8, log into AppStore and hold the option key down and click on Purchases, redownload 10.8 and install.
Revisit and redownload other software like iLife etc.
Use the TM drive to bring back copies of your files into their respective folders.
Reboot the Mac holding the command and r keys down, use Terminal and enter resetpassword, a window appears, select your boot volume and user, then reset ACL's, should fix your user permissions issue.
Note: What the AppleStore should have done is installed the 10.8 Recovery HD on your new drive, then you could have just reinstalled 10.8 from that.

I setup a new iPad air and did a restore from iCloud and only part of my camera roll downloaded?

Welcome to the Apple Community Xena1940.
When you restore from back up, the process will restore the OS and some initial data, it will then restart and allow you to use your device while the remaining data is downloaded and restored in the background. have you allowed enough time for this to complete.

HT201317 Just synched iphone4s to new iphone6. Majority of photos in iCloud still show on old phone (4s). i6 phone is not loading most of them from iCloud. Why?

Hi, I just synched my iphone4s to new iphone6. Majority of photos in iCloud still show on old phone (4s). i6 phone is not loading most of them from iCloud. Any idea why?

You cannot do anything to effect the Photo Stream except delete photos. Photo Stream automatically loads photos that you take as you take them into the Photo Stream. It then removes anything over 30 days old automatically.
