I recently had to replace my iphone 4s and i lost all of my picture that was stored in photo stream how can I retreive them?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Any photos in photostream in the cloud will be returned to the new device when you log into your account and enable photostream, the photos in photostream in the cloud may not mirror the photos in the photostream album on your old phone.
Photostream in the cloud only keeps photos from the last 30 days (subject to a 1,000 photo limit). When photostream syncs the photos to your device they will stay there until deleted, which means you may well have more photos in your photostream album on your device than there are in photostream in the cloud.
The consequence of this is that if you turn photostream off and on again on your device (or enable it for the first time), it will only be populated with photos from the last 30 days, which may not be all the photos that were previously in the photostream album on that device.

i was backing up my iPhone and importing photos onto iPhoto at the same time , then suddenly it says no more space available (i had 48GB before i do this and now i have 18GB) i can't find the back up or the photo anywhere , how can i delete them ? i dont need the pictures or the back ups , i want to delete them but they are not there
Empty the Trash if you haven't already done so. If you use iPhoto, empty its internal Trash first:
iPhoto ▹ Empty Trash
Do the same in other applications, such as Aperture, that have an internal Trash feature. Then reboot. That will temporarily free up some space.
According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB of available space on the startup volume (as shown in the Finder Info window) for normal operation. You also need enough space left over to allow for growth of the data. There is little or no performance advantage to having more available space than the minimum Apple recommends. Available storage space that you'll never use is wasted space.
When Time Machine backs up a portable Mac, some of the free space will be used to make local snapshots, which are backup copies of recently deleted files. The space occupied by local snapshots is reported as available by the Finder, and should be considered as such. In the Storage display of System Information, local snapshots are shown asBackups. The snapshots are automatically deleted when they expire or when free space falls below a certain level. You ordinarily don't need to, and should not, delete local snapshots yourself. If you followed bad advice to disable local snapshots by running a shell command, you may have ended up with a lot of data in the Other category. Reboot and it should go away.
See this support article for some simple ways to free up storage space.
You can more effectively use a tool such as OmniDiskSweeper (ODS) to explore the volume and find out what's taking up the space. You can also delete files with it, but don't do that unless you're sure that you know what you're deleting and that all data is safely backed up. That means you have multiple backups, not just one.
Deleting files inside an iPhoto or Aperture library will corrupt the library. Any changes to a photo library must be made from within the application that created it. The same goes for Mail files.
Proceed further only if the problem isn't solved by the above steps.
ODS can't see the whole filesystem when you run it just by double-clicking; it only sees files that you have permission to read. To see everything, you have to run it as root.
Back up all data now.
If you have more than one user account, make sure you're logged in as an administrator. The administrator account is the one that was created automatically when you first set up the computer.
Install ODS in the Applications folder as usual. Quit it if it's running.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, then copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
sudo /Applications/OmniDiskSweeper.app/Contents/MacOS/OmniDiskSweeper
Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The application window will open, eventually showing all files in all folders, sorted by size with the largest at the top. It may take a few minutes for ODS to finish scanning.
I don't recommend that you make a habit of doing this. Don't delete anything while running ODS as root. If something needs to be deleted, make sure you know what it is and how it got there, and then delete it by other, safer, means. When in doubt, leave it alone or ask for guidance.
When you're done with ODS, quit it and also quit Terminal. -
i was transferring my information from my old iphone to the new one, and i forgot that i had some pictures in the new one. i did the restoring information and the pictures in new one are gone. how can i get them back???? please
Only way to get it back is to restore your phone from a backup, if those pics were included in that backup.
But most likely those pics are gone.
What you should've done was import http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083 the pics to your computer and after you restored from your old backup, you could sync those new pics to your phone via itunes. -
I bought a used iPhone and found him email iCloud does not affect me so how can I deleted this email in order to use the device freely and privacy
help me pleaseYou can't. Return the phone for a refund, if you can, because without the previous owner's Apple ID/Password, you will not be able to re-activate the phone. It will be useless to you.
Apple can't/won't help you with this. -
I have a jailbroked iphone,and it seems that it has some viruses how can I remove them from my iphone?
You have viruses because you jailbroke your phone, and now you're probably spreading them to other phones. Nice.
Jailbroken phones are generally bricked for good. Throw it away, it's junk. -
I have photos from my computer saved on my Iphone and I can't delete them from the app photos. How can I delete them?
You'll have to deselect the photos in the photo pane in iTunes on your computer and then sync the phone again, this will delete photos that have not been taken with the phone but synced from the computer.

My daughter bought a new ipod touch and when synced received the contacts from my iphone. She deleted the ones she didn't want on her ipod and now they are gone from my iphone. I have the cloud and i thought back up on itunes. I have tried to re-sync and no luck. How can I get my contacts back?
Your problem is that she used your icloud ID to connect to icloud and thus had all your data synced to her device. Contacts are not saved in a backup to icloud, since they are stored independently in the Contacts section of icloud. If someone deletes them, they are gone. If you had them on the PC would they be available in some backup you frequently make of the PC?

Hi. I have been having problems with my iphone 4s ios 6.?? heating up alot, draining the battery fast. It goes down to about 20% before half the day is over. I still have 4GB left (from a 64GB iphone) and don't have anything functioning, (other than check my emails occasionally and txt). It is also having problems deleting emails. I push edit, then touch the dot next to the emails so I can select which ones to delete, but then the dots all disappear and the editing function goes away. It just goes back to inbox. So I have got a Nokia Lumia phone to try out until I can try and fix those problems. But I have put the sim in it, and now I have no contacts, notes or photos or anything. I backed up my iphone to my itunes on my laptop last night, because I was told to try and do and backup and restore on my iphone 4s, that maybe that would solve the problem. I can't see how it would stop it heating up. So I backed it up, but didn't restore it as I didn't want to wipe everything off my iphone, and it said I had to update to ios 7 in order to restore it. I have read alot of bad stuff about putting ios 7 on iphone 4s, so I don't want to update it. Is there a way I can go to the backup somewhere on my laptop to find all that information? As I had contacts and notes stored on my iphone that I didn't have written down anywhere else, which I need. Now I don't have them. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
what I meant about "dont have anything functioning", I didnt mean the phone isn't working. I meant that I have the phone on standby all day. Just use it to check my emails, & fb messenger, thats about it, yet it still drains the battery. I do sync/backup everything to my itunes, most recently was last night. Can I not retreive it somehow so it can be put on the nokia phone? Or so I can at least see the contacts, notes, photos etc on my laptop (wherever the backup data is)? Then just copy it onto the nokia phone? I have also noticed that even going into my facebook messages, it doesnt have the photos that were sent and received whilst I was using my iphone. I thought at least fb would keep them.
From what I mostly read about updating it, alot of the apps dont properly function with the ios 7, as it is made for the iphone 5. People have written that it slows their phones down alot, and the phones can take minutes to dial a call. I prefer not to take that risk and stuff my phone up. At least at the moment its just overheating, the battery is dying fast, and its not deleting emails sometimes. Hope this is of some help. -
i restored my iphone and i am not getting the rest of my photos from my photo stream i am missing about 900 out of 1000 photos it only shows 147 photos it is not downloading for more i was sure i backed it up to icloud i had 1.7 free gb and it still says 1.7 gb free but i am not getting it still
With respect, there is no way that upgrading your iPhone will erase the photos on your computer. WHy not tell us what happened exactly, nd how it relates to iPhoto. If, along the way, you can tell us what version of iPhoto, that might help to.

I am backing up all my pictures (from a long trip to Italy) to the iCloud from iPhone......I want to download the onto my iPad before I leave space on my iPhone.
How do I download them from the cloud???
You have to talk to me like If I am a second grader please. Lol!!!!Hi Susu55,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
I would suggest importing your pictures to your computer, and then sync your iPad to the computer.
The article below will show you how:

please help
I have the same question, but can you clarify something please. I have about 10 apps showing in the apps section of iTunes - all of which I am happy to have on my iphone - but NOT on the Touch.
1. How do I 'delete' the apps wrongly synched to the Touch, and
2. For the future, when I download an app. hor do I ensure it is only synched with the iphone and not the Touch. I have very space left on the Touch and don't want to clutter it with unwanted apps.
