Storing photos in iCloud, help needed.

Using my iPad I moved photos from photostream into iCloud, I created albums. Yet when I go into iCloud using my iPhone there's no sign of the albums.....anyone know why? I thought once yous tired photos in albums in iCloud you could view them from any of your iCloud devices.....am I wrong thinking this??

How come albums in iCloud created on my iPhone are now on my iPad though........ Could it be because of when I hook it up yo my PC???? I might hook iPad up to PC to see if albums in iCloud also end up on iPhone......

IPhone 4 reset itself, photos lost -URGENT HELP NEEDED

Hi there,
Urgent help needed!!
Tonight I was taking extremely important photos throughout an event on my iPhone 4, however, my iPhone 4 ran out of battery once I was near a charger I plugged it in and for some reason my iPhone had reset itself. Back up icloud options were from yesterday, but the photos that I was taking at the event are needed urgently. Is there any way possible I can recover the photos that were taken?
Thanks in advance!!!!

HT201317 Storing photos on icloud

I'm trying to move photos from my ipad, taken over the last 12 months, to icloud as I'm about to get a replacement ipad from apple but can't work out how to do it! Can't anyone help?
Many thanks

You need to back up your iPad
Being able to back up to the cloud can be very useful, especially if you don't have access to a computer or have infrequent access to one, however unless you specifically need to use iCloud for back up, you will find backing up to iTunes significantly more convenient and possibly more reliable.

Can I store games and other apps in iCloud to free up my storage space on my iPod because I only have 800MB of storage left!

iCloud is used for backups (which shouldn't be confused with archived files) and for syncing between devices. It is not used as off-site storage for files that you want to off-load from a device and later copy back when needed. As for apps, iCloud doesn't really store them, they are always available for re-download from the app store. But deleting a game from the device will lose all the data associated with it.

ICloud Help needed!

I have 1 Mac with 1 iTunes. We have 3 iPhones. How can I create separate iCloud accounts for each family member, yet still share iTunes?
I don't want my children's contacts or photos and they don't want mine. Is this possible with 1 Apple Id?
If it is possible, step by step instructions would be super!
Thank you in advance

You can keep the Apple ID you use for iTunes as the ID you purchase with, and then create separate Apple IDs for iCloud:
Using your Apple ID for Apple services
See the section titled: "Using one Apple ID for iCloud and a different Apple ID for Store Purchases"

My I pod touch ..has a old E-mail acct. assoc. with it and can't remember the password, will not let me update my apps. will deleting my acct. fix problem will I loose all of my stored photos?? help

wondering if deleting my Itunes acct. will help in erasing the pop-up requiring a password I no longer know ?

You really can't delete the account.
Try recovering the the password
How do I change or recover a forgotten Apple ID Password?
If you've forgotten your Apple ID Password or want to change it, go to My Apple ID and follow the instructions. SeeChanging your Apple ID password if you'd like more information.
YO can just delete all media purchased with the account and change the ID to a new one. and not lose things like photos except for photos directly associated with the ID like maybe photos in your PhotoStream

Good day AMELIASARAH,
One resolution to your issue would be to update your iPhone using iTunes on your computer rather than over the air. This requires much less space on the iPhone as most of the work is done by the computer. See this article for how to do it -
If you need more space for an iOS update - Apple Support
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

Finding my photos on icloud need link for accessing it.

Hi hope someone can help. I need to have the link so that I can get onto icloud to view photos as I lost connection as battery low and screen froze. If anyone could let me know it I would be very happy.

You can't access or view photo stream photos on icloud.com. You can only do this from an iOS device or computer that is syncing with your iCloud account with photo stream enabled.
Also, videos are not uploaded to photo stream; only photos. Camera roll videos are included in your iCloud backup, but are not synced to your account.

After putting my photos on icloud and deleting them off my camera roll to save storage, they were all gone off of icloud the next morning. This was before we could recover them with ios8. HELP.

I went to the One Direction concert August 19, 2014. I took several videos and pictures on my phone and wanted to save storage since my phone is only 16 GB, so right after the concert I put the images and videos on iCloud and deleted them off my camera roll. The next morning I woke up to look at them on my iCloud and every single video and picture was gone. GONE. This was before iOS8 let you recover deleted photos. As a desperate fangirl, please help me out. I've spent months in stress and utter sadness due to this. I want to know how to get my precious pictures and videos back.

I did it on my phone; I shared them to iCloud on my iPhone and then deleted them off of my camera roll, because I knew they would be stored on my iCloud. But, as you see, the next morning they were gone. :(((((((((((

Today I restore my phone, before I restored it I checked that my photos are saved on my icould, I did the backup and everything was back on my phone but not my photos! :( please help I need my photos back :|

Hello purpleroses68
To download any photos that were on your My Photos Stream, then you will need to have Photo Streamed turned on within your computer. Keep in mind that My Photos Stream only holds the last 30 days of photos and those will be the only one that will download. Check out the articles below for more information for the process and general information about getting your photos downloaded.

I need more space on my iPad 2 and want to move my photos to iCloud where I have a lot of available space.

In order to update to iOS 7 I need more space on my iPad 2. Since I have a lot of storage space in iCloud, I want to move my photos there . What do I need to do?

How much space is used by your Other? You may be able to reduce.
How Do I Get Rid Of The “Other” Data Stored On My iPad Or iPhone?
http://tinyurl.com/85w6xwn
With an iOS device, the “Other” space in iTunes is used to store things like documents, settings, caches, and a few other important items. If you sync lots of documents to apps like GoodReader, DropCopy, or anything else that reads external files, your storage use can skyrocket. With iOS 5/6, you can see exactly which applications are taking up the most space. Just head to Settings > General > Usage, and tap the button labeled Show All Apps. The storage section will show you the app and how much storage space it is taking up. Tap on the app name to get a description of the additional storage space being used by the app’s documents and data. You can remove the storage-hogging application and all of its data directly from this screen, or manually remove the data by opening the app. Some applications, especially those designed by Apple, will allow you to remove stored data by swiping from left to right on the item to reveal a Delete button.

My kids now each have an itouch, should we all have different apple ids even if I am paying for all itunes and app store purchases? what about icloud? I would like to share itunes and app purchases, but not necessarily photos...help please!

The recommended solution for most families is to share the same Apple ID for iTunes and App Store purchases, so you can share your purchases, but us different IDs for iMessage, FaceTime and iCloud. With this arrangement, each person can automatically download purchases made on the shared ID (by turning this feature on in Settings>iTunes & App Stores), while keeping their FaceTime calls, text messages and iCloud data (including photo stream) separated. There is no requirement that the ID you use for purchasing be the same as the ID you use for these other services.

I just bought this ipad and cannot log out from icloud because i dont have the password.how can i log out from icloud?need help

You need to return it to the seller and get your money back. You cannot reset or use the device with another AppleID installed unless you know the password for that ID.
If the device has been jailbroken, no one on here can give you any further help...the Terms of Use prohibit us from doing so.

In order to use your Apple ID to create an iCloud account, the primary email address associated with the ID must first be verified. To do this, Apple will send a verification email to your account and you must respond to the email by clicking the Verify Now link. Make sure you are check the spam/junk folder as well as the inbox. If it isn't there, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage your Apple ID, sign in, click on Name, ID and Email addresses on the left, then to the right click Resend under your Primary Email Address to resend the verification email.
