Not all photos in icloud restore

I have just restored my new iphone 5 to icloud but not all my photos have turned up. There are a few from a couple of years ago and some recent photos, but its still missing the ones inbetween. How can i get these if possible??
This restore has taken more than 12 hours and it still hasnt finished. Should it take this long??

If some of your camera roll photos turn up missing all you can do is start over and restore the backup again. You might try one of the solutions in this discussion, such as the one by ezjules: https://discussions.apple.com/message/19518589#19518589. Twelve hours sounds long but it all depends on your download speed, how busy the servers are and how large the backup is.

Contacts are designed to be synced to a supported application on the computer or a cloud service.
Pictures taken with the device are designed to regularly be copied off the device to a computer as would be done with any digital camera.
If you have failed to use the device as designed it may be too late to recovery anything.
Is the device regularly backed up to a computer via iTunes? If so, the most recent backup (when restored to a replacement iOS device) should contain all contacts and pictures as of when the backup was created.

TS4036 I have had to do a factory reset on my ipad3,when i restored via i.cloud not all my apps were restored how can i get them back,they show on the back up list on my ipad in icloud,any help is appreciated thanx, Andrew

I took my Ipad to my local Apple store as it would not d`load or update apps. They factory restored it,on icloud backup restore not all my apps were restored including some i`d paid for, they show up on my list of appsin icloud, how can i get them back? any help very welcome, thanx...Andrew

Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

Why are not all photos taken with an iphone available on the icloud, even that i made some fotos at the same time. Some of them are afterwards available on fotostream others not

Hi,
why are not all photos taken with an iphone available on the icloud, even that i made some fotos at the same time?
Some of these photos are afterwards available on fotostream others not.
Thx

If they are in photos view then they are in an event unless you have a corrupted library
How are you"merging" the photos?
most common issue is either bad sort (view menu ==> sort events) or bad camera dates
select one and show event to see the event

How are you trying?

Videos do not go into Photo Stream.
You can add them to a Shared Photo Stream.

HT201269 I am trying to save memory on my iPhone 4S/ ios6. Can I back up all photos to icloud and the external hard disk I normally use for photos? If I then delete photos from the iPhone do the get deleted on iCloud?

I am trying to save memory on my iPhone 4S/ ios6.
1) Can I back up all photos to icloud and the external hard disk I normally use for photos? If I then delete photos from the iPhone do the get deleted on iCloud?
2) Can I back up the newsstand to iCloud and save memory on the iPhone?
3) Can I back up the bookshelf to icloud and save memory on the iPhone?

1. What format is the external drive? It sounds like it's ina format that Macs can't write to. Is it a NAS or NTFS?
2. Easiest thing: just move your iPhoto Library to the external
Make sure the drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
1. Quit iPhoto
2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.

How do i transfer all photos from iCloud to my new iMac

I can see all of the thumbnails in my library but when i click on photo it becomes an ! not all photos do this but wondering if there is a fix

i can see all of the thumbnails in my library but when i click on photo it becomes an ! not all photos do this but wondering if there is a fix

The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
What version of iPhoto do you have? Assuming 09 or later...
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

IPhoto to Aperture 3 import - not all photos get imported...

Hello - My library is not huge, only about 8000 photos. Just bought Aperture 3 and imported my iPhoto library into A3. Seemed to go without issues. Today, as I re-organize a few folders, projects, etc., I realize that not all the photos were imported. About 700, to be exact. Every named Event in iPhoto imported over into A3, but not all photos within each Event (now Project). Any thoughts on what could have happened and how this could be avoided?
I could import each Event individually, but then I would loose all my keywords. Any work around you can think of? Thanks!

Try rebuild your iPhoto Library:
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.

Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords, faces and places back.
I would import each event individually, but I would like my keywords preserved
Using the iPhoto Media Browser (File -> Import -> Show iPhoto Browser) will get your keywords too.

Open your iPhoto Library, go to that particular album and verify that you can view the full sized version of each image by double clicking on them. Report back with the results.

How to to delete all photos in iCloud

How do i permanently delete all photos from icloud?

For photos in photo stream, log into icloud.com and click on your name. Go to Advanced, there you can reset photo stream.
For photos in a backup, you can't selectively delete files from it. You can delete the entire backup (Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backups), but are you sure you want to do that. You can also turn off the backup of photos in the same place, but that won't help with the current backup.

Not all photos in Event got synced

I found that not all photos in my events were synced into my iPhone recently, but it used to be ok.
I have already selected to sync "Selected albums......include ALL event" options in iTunes.
The event folder itself was synced but not all photo in the event get synced to iPhone, just some of them. Anyone got an idea on what happen ??
Thanks.

MacOSX 10.6.2 on MacPro

Well...first a quick question, any reason why you have not updated to 10.6.2? Your profile indicates you haven't installed the combo update, which has a number of bug fixes. You might want to first repair permissions, then install the update, which can be obtained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL958. Once done, repair permissions again & check for any updates to iphoto, if that's what you're using.
Then, lets see if we can fix this mess. I'd suggest first removing ALL photos from your phone by un-checking the various albums or folders you have selected in itunes and hitting the APPLY button. Once you've confirmed that there are no photos on your phone, delete the photo cache on your computer, again, as described earlier. Then launch isync from your applications folder & under preferences select reset sync history. Once complete, reboot your computer, launch itunes, connect your phone, select what photo albums you want and hit apply.
Are any of these photos in a music slide show? If so, try disabling or removing the music BEFORE you try and sync them back.

ICloud Photo Library, some not all photos

Is there a way to set up to store some photos, or photo albums in iCloud but not all? Seems like it's all or none.

Yeah - I'm sticking with Photostream, and iPhoto right now. Once the new photo app is available across the board, and there is more literature on it, I will look into using the cloud, but I'm happy to keep it on my Mac. With the automatic import of Photostream photos, it really doesn't require a lot of work to keep photos on the Mac, and with a regular backup to TimeMachine, I'm comfortable that it is all backed up and safe....

Not all photos in the Photos app are uploaded to iCloud

I have over 23,000 photos in my Photos default library, but only about 3,000 have been upload to iCloud. I have 200 GB iCloud storage (187 GB available). Can someone help resolve this?

On my iPad 2 (using iOS 7.1.2) there are 1,279 photos in the Photos application. The camera roll contains 77 photos. The About section in the Settings indicate I have 1,421 photos. Why is there this discrepancy in numbers? How can I move all 1,279 photos from the Photos application to a USB flash drive?
You cannot.
You have sync'd 1202 photos (1279-77) from your computer using iTunes to your iPhone.
You have 77 photos on you iPhone you have taken with the iPhone and have not sync'd to your computer and deleted from the Camera Roll.
You should regularly sync all photos in the Camera Roll to your computer and delete them from the Camera Roll on the iPhone.
-> iOS: Import personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
After you do this, you can sync whatever photos you want, back to your iPhone using iTunes. (These are the photos NOT in the Camera Roll).
-> iTunes: Syncing photos
After all this, you can copy photos from your computer to a USB flash drive.

How to get all photos from iCloud to iphone6?

I just got the iPhone 6 and not all of my photos transferred from the cloud? Is here something I need to do or does it take time?

If you made an iCloud or iTunes backup of your iPhone you can use that to restore a new iPhone with your photos. If the photos were shared via PhotoStream you may be able to access them on a new iPhone or other device using the same iCloud ID.
