Pictures, Videos, Data on Iphone 5

Hello. I have an iphone 5 with Verizon. I back up my data with the icloud platform through apple. This weekend I was recording people wake boarding and my iphone shut down stating that I do not have enought memory. I went to settings, icloud, storage & back up on the device and was informed that I have a total of 25.0 GB of storage and that I have 15.75 GB of storage remaining. If this is the case, then why was I unable to continue recording yesterday?
My question is ... what all uses the 25. of storag? I assume applications, videos, movies, etc. I currenlty have 1575 pictures includes maybe 25 videos in my album on the phone. The phone also has photo stream. Do I need to delete pictures and videos even though I have 15.75 GB remaining?
Finally, is there a way to create an album on the phone that is password protected? I ask this because friends want to scroll throug the phone to look at pics and vides and I just want to make sure they do not see a picture that I do not want them to see. Thank You!

I forgot to add that I use the itunes Music Match (can't remember if that is what it is called). My music is backed up in the cloud so it doesn't use any of my phone storage. Thanks.

  • If I take my water damaged iPhone 4 into an apple store, will they be able to retrieve my pictures, video and contacts from it?? It currently won't turn on, wondering if there is a way for them to turn it on to do that?

    No, they won't. If the phone won't turn on at all, the only way to even attempt to get information off the flash drive would be to turn the whole thing over to one of those data recovery firms like DriveSaver. You're looking at a couple of thousand dollars, at least.

  • How to store all iPhone pictures/videos on iCloud?

    I have a 30G iPhone 5S.  I subscribe and pay for 200G in iCloud storage.  I am trying to have all my photos and videos be saved from my phone onto iCloud which I can then also access on our MacBook.  Under "General -- Usage -- Manage Storage" I have selected "Camera Roll" to back up to iCloud.  Also, under "Settings -- iCloud " I have"Photos" sleected.  I keep getting warnings that I do not have sufficient storage to take pictures and videos.
    Questions:
    1.  How do I back up and store my entire "Photo Library" (i.e. pictures and videos) to my iCloud account?
    2.  How do I sync all the pictures and videos on my iPhone to my MacBook?  Not just the "Photo Stream" pictures?
    I thought by purchasing the iCloud space, I would have the 200G to take as many videos/pictures as I wanted since they would be stored there and not on my actual phone with the limited hardware storage.  Please advise....this is SO frustrating!
    Information:
    Product - iPhone 5S
    OS - 7.1.1 (11D201)
    Model - ME309LL/A
    Capacity - 27.4GB

    An iPhone backup to iCloud stores the photos on iCloud but the backup of the photos (and the other data on the phone) are only useable for a complete restore (e.g, in the event of a problem with the phone or when moving data to a new phone).
    Apple does not have a method of storing all iPhone photos on iCloud using iOS 7 in a way that you could then access them and sync to a Mac other than Photo Stream.
    iCloud Photo Library (beta) can be used to store your photos on iCloud in a way that they can be retrieved but you would need to upgrade your phone to iOS 8.
    You turn iCloud Photo Library (beta) on via Settings > iCloud > Photos > iCloud Photo Library (Beta). There is more information at iCloud Photo Library beta FAQ - Apple Support
    Note the following quote from that link:
    How does iCloud Photo Library save space on my device?
    If you turn on Optimize [device] Storage, iCloud Photo Library will automatically manage the size of your library on your iOS device, so you can make the most of your device's storage and access more photos than ever. iCloud Photo Library stores the original, high-resolution photos and videos in iCloud and can keep lightweight, device-optimized versions on each of your devices. As long as you have enough storage, recent photos and videos that you access the most will stay on your device at full resolution.
    To turn on Optimize [device] Storage on your device, tap Settings > iCloud > Photos or Settings > Photos & Camera, then select Optimize [device] Storage. You need an Internet connection to access an original photo or video that’s stored only in iCloud.
    Also note that the new Photos app for the Mac that integrates with iCloud Photo Library has not yet been released but is expected with the next release of Yosemite (i.e., OS X 10.10.3); In the meantime you could access them via a browser at iCloud.com.
    With iOS 7 there are other 3rd party solutions (not involving iCloud) that may do what you want. Examples you may want to investigate include Flickr and Dropbox.

    No.  The data that you downloaded from your iPhone will remain on your MBP.

  • Why does itunes say that my iphone has 9GB of video data even though I've deleted every video I've ever made

    Hello,
    When I use itunes on my macbook to view the contents of my iphone 5, the bar at the bottom of the window that shows me how much data is taken up for different categories says that I have 9 GB of video data. The thing is, I deleted all of the videos that I've ever recorded on my phone, but itunes still says I have 9.15 GB of video data! I ejected my iphone and plugged it back in multiple times to see if it was a problem with refreshing, but that didn't work. Itunes also says that I only have about 3 GB of free space left and when I go to the settings on my iphone, it says the same thing, so I know that there really are mysterious files on my iphone taking up 9 GB of space. Also, both itunes and my iphone says that I have 83 video files. I've deleted as much apps as I could, just incase there were apps that had video files included in them, but that didnt really work. I also opened the video app in utilitties on my iphone and it said that I do not have ANY videos. I don't really know what else to do.
    Is there any way to just see all of the files on my iphone? Itunes does not let me do that. It only lets me view certain files from apps like adobe reader. I need to find out what video files itunes is detecting on my iphone. Again, I've deleted all of the videos that I made on the phone by using the photos app. I never downloaded video files from safari either.
    Thanks in advance

    since moving to the mac from windows, this seems to happen less. I also found that having some videos marked as "remember playback position" resulted in a lot of updates to the ipod when i had watched them through itunes.

  • How do I transfer my pictures and videos from my iPhone and IPad on the time capsule?

    How do I transfer my pictures and videos from my Iphone and IPad onto my time capsule?

    You cannot use Apple TV.. again the TC is not a media device and has no media extensions.
    You can store video files on the TC.. but the ATV must work either via airplay so you run the video on an ipad for instance and send the screen view to the apple tv or you have itunes running on a computer.
    BTW a WD live TV can play video files from a TC.. because it is a true media player.. the Apple TV is not a media player.. it is a streamer.

  • How do I share pictures, videos, and songs between 2 iPhones on 1 iMac?

    How do I share pictures, videos, and songs between 2 iPhones on 1 iMac? My wife and I shoot pictures and video at the same event and want to share them in 1 iPhoto event. We have music that we want to share and load onto our respective iPhones. And we DON'T want to muddle our contacts, apps, or other goodies.
    I tried to set up a shared folder for the pictures, and set us a login for each of us. I must have missed a step or two because it didn't work.
    Please spell it out. Please provide the steps and check marks, or a link to an Apple Support doc that makes it easy.

  • Iphoto 9.5.1 will not import videos with .mpg extension from my pictures folder and keep getting a OSStatus error-54. Is there a way I can import such videos to the iphone library?

    iphoto 9.5.1 will not import videos with .mpg extension from my pictures folder and keep getting a OSStatus error-54. Is there a way I can import such videos to the iphone library? Pls help.

    This is what that error means:

    permErr
    Software lock on file; Not a subscriber [permissions error on file open]
    Download and launch  BatChmod.  Put the videos into a subfolder and drag that folder containing the video files into the Batchmod window.  Make sure you are the owner and have R,W, X access as well as the group.  Everyone will have R only.
    Check the Change ownership and privileges, Unlock and Apply to enclosed boxes and then click on the Apply button.  When done try importing the files again.

  • Is there a way to prevent pictures/video from uploading to iCloud photo library from my iPhone and just have pictures/video from my Macbook in Photos upload to iCloud Photo Library?

    I would like just my imported photos and video in the Photos App to be synced to my iCloud Photo Library, and not the photos and video from my iPhone. Is there a way to do this?

    You can either sync them back to your iPhone is you have them saved on a computer, or you can restore from a backup if you have one.  Those would be about your only options. iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
