Pictures are gone after iOS 8 update

After the iOS 8 update, I went to my picture gallery and all but 43 of my pictures are gone. I've gone to Photos --> Collections and still, only those 43 images are there. Where did my pictures go and how do I get them back?

You should be storing everything on your computer. Just sync them to the iPhone.
Did you update without making sure that you had imported everything to your computer?

All of my songs are GONE after i updated my Nano to 1.2!!!!

well last night i connected my nano to my computer, then started up itunes nd i get a msg to update it to version 7.0. So i installed it then it asks me to upgrade to version 1.2 for the ipod. so i'm like WHy not.
after the firmware for the ipod has been updated, i disconnected the cable, i went through my ipod and i noticed it asking me which language i wanted, so i scrolled down to english. then i went through my songs n next thing i know, everything is GONE.
i connected my nano back to the comp, nothing shows up on Itunes either. But when i went on My Computer to check my ipod, it does show how much space my songs have taken up!
so it may seem like the songs are still on my ipod but its just not showing anywhere... i tried to look through the folder MUSIC on my ipod, but nothing is there, however when i looked in the folder Artwork, theres a few big random files :

All my apps and music are gone after i updated to 5.0.1

i did back up my ipodtouch before i updated it. all my musics and apps are gone and only thing it backed up is my pics, contacts, and some other stuff. is there anyway i can get my apps and musics back?

You said you did a backup...
iCloud backup or iTunes backup?
Also, two suggestions for next time:
Software updates can be done right from your device, under Settings > General > Software Update if you have iOS 5 or later. This usually prevents a lot of problems users typically run in to when updating in iTunes.
When updating in iTunes, even though your restore may seem complete, it is still restoring your apps, music, etc. Please be sure that it is absolutely complete before unplugging.

Fotos in Fotostream and icloud gone after iOS update

Hello. I have no more Fotos in my Fotostream and iCloud after the latest iOS update - I didn´t make a local backup and I don´t use iTunes or a Mac. Can Apple restore a backup from the server? Thanks.

No, I didn´t activate anything.
Did you check.
iCloud also tells me 5GB free, had 1GB of Data in it.
Photo Stream doesn't count towards your iCloud space, so that 1 GB was nothing to do with photo stream.

ALL my contacts are gone after IOS5 update. WHY?

(i really, REALLY don't want to type in all my contacts, i probably could not even remember them all). please help, thanks.

I tries that and they didn't come back? : ( ANy other ideas? -thanks!

Contact list deleted after ios update

This is the craziest thing I ever imagined . My whole conytact list is gone after ios update ..

This is not bug!
Alas, in other Symbian smartphones I examined, the background in Contacts and background in theme are the same, and Nokia in firmware 110 for E71, E66 made the same causing inconvenience
As for my opinion, previous always white background in Contacts looked better

If I did the IOS 8 update and didn't back my phone up before the update, does that mean all of my pictures are gone?

If I did the IOS 8 update and didn't back my phone up before the update, does that mean all of my pictures are gone? While I was doing the update it told me to plug my phone into iTunes. I did so and then it said my phone needed to be "restored" but it said I was going to get my pictures, messages, music and contacts back later on. Now being one day later I did not get any of that back.

If you don't have a backup then you can't get the data back.
It's not typical for an update to require a restore, but for a handful of people the update gets interrupted, and this happens.

I just updated my iPod touch and all my pictures are gone!!! How do I get them back? Please help!!!

I just updated my iPod touch 4th generation to iOS 6.0.1 and all my pictures are gone!!! Everything else is there but my pictures! How do I get them back? Please help!!!

If the photos were i your iPod's Camera Roll album (taken by or saved to the iPod you can:
- If your PhotoStream is on you can get the last 30 days worth back. See that topic here:
iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
- Or you can restore from backup if you backed up when the photos were on the iPod.
If the photos were synced to the iPod then you have to get them from where you got them the first time.

How can I improve picture quality...now grainy after IOS update!

How can I improve picture quality...now grainy after IOS update!

Hello, dreamer5th.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Here are some troubleshooting steps that I would recommend going through when experiencing this issue. They are labeled for the iPhone; however, the steps also apply to your iPad. Also, make sure to test the camera in well lighted conditions as this can affect picture quality.
Camera isn't functioning or has undesired image quality
If the screen shows a closed lens or black image, force quit the Camera app.
If you do not see the Camera app on the Home screen, try searching for it in Spotlight. If the camera does not show up in the search, check to make sure that Restrictions are not turned on by tappingSettings > General > Restrictions.
Ensure the camera lens is clean and free from any obstructions. Use a microfiber polishing cloth to clean the lens.
Cases can interfere with the camera and the flash. Try gently cleaning the lens with a clean dry cloth or removing the case if you see image or color-quality issues with photos.
Try turning iPhone off and then back on.
Tap to focus the camera on the subject. The image may pulse or briefly go in and out of focus as it adjusts.
Try to remain steady while focusing:
Still images: Remain steady while taking the picture. If you move too far in any direction, the camera automatically refocuses to the center.
Note: If you take a picture with iPhone turned sideways, it is automatically saved in landscape orientation.
Video: Adjust focus before you begin recording. You can also tap to readjust focus while recording. Exiting the Camera application while recording will stop recording and will save the video to the Camera Roll.
Note: Video-recording features are not available on original iPhone or iPhone 3G.
If your iPhone has a front and rear camera, try switching between them to verify if the issue persists on both.

If the issue persists see the last section labeled Issue not resolved.

All of my pictures from my iPhoto library are gone after upgrading to Mavericks

I just upgraded to Os X Mavericks and now all of my pictures are gone from my iPhoto library, and of course I am unable to access this version of iPhoto on OS X Mavericks.
I tried to find them using a different application or in Finder, and in both cases "iPhoto Library" is in Gray and no contents are available. My system memory doesn't seem to be reflecting the number of photos I have either.
If I go back to my old operating system will it work? If not, I have lost all my pictures since February of 2011. I have been crying nonstop for an hour trying to figure out what to do.

Open the App Store and upgrade iPhoto to the Mavericks version. Installing OS X does not do anything to your iPhoto Library.
The iWork apps are free with a new iOS device since 1 SEP 2013. They are free with a new Mac since 1 OCT 2013. They are also free with the upgrade to OS X Mavericks 10.9 if you had the previous version installed when you upgraded.

I just upgraded to the iOS 5 and icloud, but now all my pictures are gone! How do I get them back?

I have an iphone and just upgraded to the iOS 5 and icloud, but now all my pictures are gone! How do I get them back?? It's weird because it said with the upgrade your photos would be kept, but apps would be erased, yet my apps synced over and not my pictures...

I have EXACTLY the same issue. I would appreciate the response also. Was not prepared for this.

After upgrading to Mountain Lion, all my pictures are gone from iPhoto. What happened?

This is very upsetting. ALL my pictures are gone from iPhoto. What happened, and how can I get them back?

Look in your user folder/Pictures. Is the Library there?
Try rebuilding the library.
iPhoto Library rebuild

Contact pictures are huge in iOS 5!

Has anyone else noticed that their contacts' pictures are HUGE after the iOS 5 update? I have tried everything I can think of to get the pictures back to their normal size, but nothing works. I can't be the only one having this problem! Any suggestions? I sync my contacts via the Address Book on an iMac running Lion.

It's the app called Contacts with the icon that looks like this:
