Recovering lost photos from delete icloud backup

Hi is there a way to recover the photos from a deleted icloud backup? I know once on the Internet it is there forever.

Unfortunantly there are no other backups...
I am hesitant to connect the new phone up as I find that whole line of questioning that iTunes does confusing.
I am never sure what it will do to 'sync' the old data with the new phone....
I think I'll just try the free utilities....

I lost my iPhone 5 how can recover my photos from the iCloud

I lost my iPhone 5 how can recover my photos from the iCloud?

The only way photos are stored in icloud is in a backup from an ios device. This assumes that icloud backup was turned on and that camera roll was turned on. Note that photo stream is a slightly different service that is used to sync photos from one device to another, it's not really a storage service.
To retrieve photos that are in a backup, you need to reset a device (wipe all data from it) and perform a restore. Note that many users have had problems getting their photos back from a backup - for one reason or another. Remember, the suggested way of storing photos is to sync them to a computer or service like Dropbox.

Go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Erase All Content and Settings. This will erase your device. Then you will go through the setup screens again as you did when your device was new, and when given the option, select Restore from iCloud Backup.

Need photos from an iCloud backup!

When iOS 7 came out I updated my iPhone 4S. I backed it up before hand and in the middle of the the process had to restore from the backup which is not a big deal. However, while backing it up a notification popped up and said something and I was texting and so I clicked an option without reading what it would do. Basically what I found out is that I stopped downloading all my photos from my backup. It didnt really bother me at the time, however, I really want some old photos of mine. I still have that backed up version, but also have a bunch of new stuff on my phone that I do not want to get rid of just to have those old photos back. Is there a way for me to obtain photos from the old backup and add them to my current phone.
tl;dr: I have an old backup I want photos from because they didnt all download when I backed up my phone. How can I get them without removing all the new stuff I have on my phone now.
My Possible Solution?: Backup my current version of my phone. Then restore my phone to the old version. Save the photos I want from the old version to someplace. Then restore it back to the current version. Would this be viable and are there any other possibilities?
Thanks!!!

Your solution is the right one.
Back up your phone as it is now to iTunes. Connect it to your computer, open iTunes, click on the name of your phone in iTunes, go to the Summary tab of your iTunes sync settings and click Back Up Now. Then go to File>Devices>Transfer Purchases.
Then restore your old iCloud backup. Go to Settings>General>Reset, tap Erase All Content and Settings, go through the setup screens on the phone and when given the option, choose Restore from iCloud Backup and follow the prompts. Be sure the phone is connected to wifi and your charger while it is backing up.
Import the recovered photos to your computer as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.
Connect your phone to your computer, go back to the Summary tab of your iTunes sync settings and click Restore Backup, restoring the backup you made earlier.
Put the recovered photos in a folder and sync the folder to your phone by selecting it on the Photos tab of your iTunes sync settings.

Recovering lost photos from a backup

Hello
I can't seem to find some photos I was working on yesterday.
Loaded question I know, but can I find a copy of just that series of photos within the backup file? Or does a restore just overwrite the current catalog. With the backed up catalog.
Made some edits to the photo yesterday and made some test prints. Slept on it and decided to make some further changes to that photo today. Of course now I can't find that series. I am sure I did something that caused this, but don't know what or how I made this mistake. I don't really want to restore an entire catalog if that can be avoided.
- Can I restore just one group of photos from a backup file?
Thanks in advance for any help I can get!
Cheers,

We don't know, it depends on how you made the backups. If the backup photos are found, you can use them, depending on the next item.
The backups were made with Lightroom. It is set to backup each time it closes.

I am sure I did something that caused this, but don't know what or how I made this mistake. I don't really want to restore an entire catalog if that can be avoided.
Let's take a step backwards. Have you searched your Lightroom catalog using the Lightroom search functions and not using your eyeballs? In other words, have you asked Lightroom to search every photo in the catalog for a specific file name that you were working on? You really ought to do that first before you even consider restoring backups.
So, you need to do all of these, in order
Click on All Photographs in the Catalog Panel
Turn off filters (Ctrl-L or Cmd-L) once or twice
Expand all stacks, use Photo->Stacking->Expand All Stacks
Search for a specific photo by file name in the Filter Bar
Yes I have used the unstacking/search function on all photos to no avail.
You keep talking about a backup file, is this the catalog file, or is it a FOLDER (not a file) of backups of your original photos? If it is a FOLDER (not a file) of backups of your original photos, then yes you could use that depending on the results of the search.
The backup creates a catalog file.

Getting back my photos from old iCloud backup

Both my laptop and iPhone got stolen (life ***** )
It was iPhone 4 and I had it regullary backed up to iCloud.
Next I bought a new iPhone5 and started using it as new device (didn't restore the iPhone4 backup). It has it's own iCloud backup (so currently my iCloud got 3 backups: iPhone5, iPad and iPhone4 - which i don't have the device).
Also bought a new laptop... (meaning no old iTunes backup)
So, only place I have a backup of the last 3 years images+videos are inside my old iPhone4 backup on iCloud.
Question: how do I pull this backup out of iCloud without: A. formatting my iPhone5, B. buying some old iPhone4 on eBay just so I restore the old backup to it.
Thanks!

You can't. iCloud backups are not viewable or editable. If you want the data, you'll have to restore it to an iOS device in order to get it.

Please help how to recover lost photos on 5S without backup

The initial update to iOS 8 failed and I used iTools to download the latest 8.0.2. Now my 5S goes to normal but all of the things were deleted after upgrade, especially the photos. I have to show the prototypes to my client tomorrow! How can I get the photos back ??? It's urgent! Please help !

It's sad to hear that, @Nrkpeomva1. Backup is always recommended with iOS device either with iTunes or iCloud. Then you can easily restore your lost files when needed. I am not 100% sure the following method works for you, at least you can give it a try. As I have used that method to retrive my deleted photos and ebooks successfully. A list of brief steps, more details please refer to this blog post:
Connect your iPhone to a PC or Mac (preferred).
Scan your iPhone disk with that app. Wait about an half hour for scanning.
Preview the files the app retrieved and select a local disk to store them.
Leave your comment here if there was any issue about that.

How can I recover lost photos from a restore on an iPod touch 4g

Ok so I have an iPod touch 4g that I had not used for about 2 months as I have been travelling. When I tried to use it I realised that I had forgotten my passcode and as I sold the laptop that I used to use to sync my iPod to just before I went travelling I have no back ups of data and I couldn't unlock my iPod. So in the end I decided I had to restore the iPod using my sisters laptop so that I could use it again as I didnt know the passcode. However my problem is that I had lots of photos stored on my iPod that were special to me and my family, is there any way that I can retrieve these photos?
If anyone can help I would be very grateful
thanks

How do I recover lost photos from iPhoto?

Help!!! I had all my honeymoon pistures in iphoto. My computer started to malfunction due to a ram issue. Long story short I "backed up" all my stuff to a western digital 250gb hard drive and re installed lion. They are not on my external Hard Drive nor laptop anymore. Does anyone know how I can ge these back? Ill take any suggestions.

Hello, thank you sooooo much for such quick replies. Pretty much what originally happened was I was trying to make an imovie, i movie wouldnt load. I call mac support and they deleted some sort of "plist" in imovie, that didnt do anything, so at that point, they said to re install lion. I backed everything on to my external hard drive by doing just a drag and drop, I erased everything from the laptop hard drive (in disk utility) and re installed it. Did not work, brought it back to apple, which we than replaced the RAM. That fixed everything, and I now re installed everything. When I went to bring my photos back on from my external drive. They were not there. Its weird because I created another user, and looked on the hard drive under the other new user account, and there is a different folder there. Doesnt have any of my pics, but says hawaii, with data001, data002 and so on. I am wondering if it is because I have different RAM when I saved them on the other HD ( dont think so though). Do these recovery programs work?

How to recover my photos from icloud?

Hi,
I reset all my settings because I was having issues with my Iphone volume. I can't seem to access my photos or recover my photos from icloud. How can I recover my photo's from icloud as that is where they were being backed up.
thanks,
Gina

First, check if their physical footprint still exists. Go to Settings > General > Usage and check the amount of storage available, do you notice that there is a lot of used storage ? You can also check it through iCloud, which might show used memory labeled as Other.
I lost all my pictures and videos after jailbreaking my phone, yet iCloud showed that they are still taking physical memory (labeled as Other - iCloud did not recognise my pics or vids anymore). This means they cannot be viewed via Camera Roll but they are still stored in the phone.
To fix that, download iFunBox ( http://www.i-funbox.com ) and use it to locate and extract the images from the phone (no need for iCloud to access the phone). I managed to extract all my photos from the iphone to an external USB, which accumulated to over 20GB of photos and videos.
Use this method and you should recover your photos and videos with no previous backup. If your phone shows that there is a lot of empty storage, then your photos might have actually been completely removed.

How do i restore deleted photos from my icloud?

How do I restore deleted photos from my icloud account?

If the photos were in your camera roll album when you last backed up to iCloud you could recover them by restoring to your backup. If you want to do this, restoring to an iCloud backup has to be done in the initial setup process. If you have any data on your phone now that is not in the backup that you want to save you'll need to do that first. Then go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Erase All Content and Settings. You will then go through the setup screens as you did when the phone was new. When given the option, choose Restore from iCloud Backup (see image below). Be sure you are connected to wifi and your charger as this will take some time to finish.

Had you set your iPhone up to use Photo Stream?
Had your performed an iCloud backup of your iPhone before it was damaged?
If you did neither of the above, then your photos are not in the cloud, and they are gone.
If you performed an iCloud backup, then it would contain the photos in the iPhone's Camera Roll (taken on the iPhone) at the time of your last backup. You could restore this iCloud backup to a device.
If your iPhone used Photo Stream, those photos are immediately accessible to your iPad if you set it up to use the same Photo Stream.
