Uploaded files to iCloud resulting in iPhone local storage reduced dramatically

Hi, I have just uploaded 12GB of files including PDFs, text files, images, videos etc into iCloud Drive via my iMac (Yosemite). However, I noticed that my iPhone storage which initially has 10GB free was reduced to just 1GB, with iOS prompting me on low storage space on my iPhone.
I would like ask if the images and videos that were uploaded to the iCloud Drive via either iCloud.com or iMac will be downloaded automatically to my iPhone, behaving similar to uploading images to Photo app?
Also, are the documents I uploaded to iCloud Drive downloaded to my iPhone in some unknown location?
Any help is much appreciated. Thanks.

    Unfortunately, no.
    You will need a 3rd party web host to upload your websites to. Depending on the version of iWeb you are using you have a couple of publishing options:
    iWeb ’09 (3.0.4) you can publish to an FTP Server or a local folder. ( With the built in FTP in iWeb you will end up with an address like “www.YourDomain.com/sitename/Home.html )
    iWeb ’08 you can publish your website to a local folder
    Basically all Web Hosting companies are iWeb-compatible.
    If you’re looking for a good hosting I would recommend IX Web Hosting I have been using them to host my own websites for several years now and that their customer support is awesome too.

    Copy my MAC Calendar file from iCloud to my iPhone 5S

    If it is already in iCloud just go to Settings/iCloud and turn on Calendar. It will then remain in sync with your Mac calendar and any other devices that are connected to the same iCloud account.

  • HT4191 iPhone Local Storage "My iPhone" - How do you create this folder for use by the Notes app on a iPhone or iPad?  If I want to keep some notes only on my device and not in a cloud environment associated with an e-mail account.

    iPhone Local Storage "My iPhone" - How do you create this folder for use by the Notes app on a iPhone or iPad?  If I want to keep some notes only on my device and not in a cloud environment associated with an e-mail account.  I've seen reference to the  "My iPhone" local storage put no mention on how you create this folder or access this folder within the Notes app.  I realize storing information in a local storage like this provides no syncing between other iDevices but that is exactly what I'm looking for.  I'm running iOS7.0.4 on a iPhone 5S, and a iPad Air.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    If you go to Settings > Notes > Default Account you will see "On My iPhone" as the default account and the only choice if you have not enabled syncing Notes in Settings >iCloud or Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars. If you have enabled syncing you can still select "On My iPhone" as the default account. When you are in the Notes app you won't see any accounts listed if you have not enabled syncing because they are all in the On My iPhone account and that is the only place possible. It is not a folder that you create.

  • How do I upload files to iCloud?

    I'm sure I'm missing something really obvious, but I have absolutely no idea how to upload files and music to iCloud. To answer the immediate questions:
    -I have the most recent version of OS X
    -I have the most recent version os iTunes
    -I've set up iCloud in Sysem preferences, logged in and all, and everything seems to be fine.
    I simply have to idea how to upload files or music. I'm sure it's something really simple, but I can't figure it out on my own. Please help!
    Thanks,

    Hi.
    If you are in the UK, iTunes in the Cloud is only for your itunes store purchased music so far. iTunes match is US only for now until later in the year or possibly early 2012.. Or until the record companies in the UK are happy!
    Secondly, to move documents into the cloud, foot
    Http://www.icloud.com and log in.
    Select the documents button (far right) and then select the settings (cog wheel) in the top right hand corner. It brings down a drop box and you can add certain documents depending if you are on the 'pages/numbers/keynote' sections.
    Think of them as three folders...
    Pages tab accepts word, pages, PDF documents etc.. 
    Numbers tab accepts excel, numbers documents etc
    And Keynote tab accepts keynote, PowerPoint docs etc.
    More will "apparently" be available.. But it's not like an iDisk whee you can put anything you want in there.
    If you have an idisk and still wanna access it..
    Go to www.me.com and you can use it till 30 June 2012.
    Hope this helps.

  • Moving Photos from iCloud Photo Library to Local Storage

    Scenario - I've a fully migrated library of photos/videos using iCloud Photo Library on iPhone and Mac.  It's near the limit of the iCloud storage plan I purchased and want to retain.  I'd like to move older and less frequently used content from iCloud Photo Library to more permanent archival storage.
    [This is for two reasons.  First, I prefer to use the Full Resolution setting on mobile devices, and that will be impossible as the entire library grows beyond the storage capacity of even the largest mobile devices.  Second, I don't feel the need to pay for super-sized iCloud storage for content rarely needed and only needed on a Mac.]
    The only option I've identified in Photos to do this is to Export (and delete from iCloud), which exports the original photos, but does not preserve useful Photos metadata and organization, such as Albums.
    What one would might like to see is a way to designate selection portions of the Library for local storage only (including backup within the Photos app library package), so those photos can be manipulated within Photos alongside iCloud content, but don't consume iCloud or mobile device space.  Or, in the alternative, one would like to see a way to Export content to merge into a separate Photos library package, preserving the metadata/organization.  In that way, one could maintain one Photos library as current iCloud synced content, and one or more local-only Photos library packages with archival content (with, importantly, the Export function to move content between the two preserving metadata).
    Does anyone know if there's a way to do this?  If not, Apple, would you consider coming up with a way to address this need?

    {quote:title=Nissin101 wrote @ 3:36pm EMT:}{quote}
    Well I was able to move photos from the camera roll to the photo library by sending *the pictures via email to my dad's blackberry, then saving them to my computer from his phone, then putting them back on into the photo library*.
    This is what I said originally.
    {quote:title=Nissin101 wrote @ 4:08pm EMT:}{quote}
    Alright I guess that answers my question then. However, just as I said I was able to transfer photos from my camera roll to my photo library, so at least that is possible.
    I never said that I did it directly, neither did I mean to imply that I was looking for a direct solution. This I guess is where our misunderstanding comes from. I just did not feel like repeating the whole process I went through. Regardless, I would rather this thread not derail into who said what and whose misunderstanding who. I now know that it is not possible to get pictures from the photo library to the camera roll in any way, so my question is answered for now at least.

  • What can i upload file( .txt,.doc,.zip) from iphone device ?

    <Edited By Host>

    Sorry, that doesn't work. First, there's no "Import" when I right click on the iPhone icon. The closest thing is "Get Pictures". When I click on that it brings up the Windows Scanner & Camera Wizard. When I click on Windows Scanner & Camera Wizard "next", it brings up the "choose pictures to copy", but all the frames are blank with big red crosses in them. If I click on "explore", it brings up all the IMG files showing under "type" that they're JPEG files. But when I click on any of the IMG files, it brings up the Windows Picture & Fax Viewer with no picture.

  • TS5179 No upload file in place

    I get a notification that my upload file for iCloud is not in place. How do I remedy this issue?
    Desmo

    The problem here is usually one of setting up the classpath correctly on the server.
    If you run the Demo Form that comes with the utility and press KEY-LISTVAL then it will pop up an alert with the current classpath in it.
    If this fails and you get an error it's because Forms can't start Java on the server at all which indicates that you need to check the o/s path that is configured for the CGI to use.
    In general I'd recommend using the Forms listener Servlet with this kind of code because it means that you can do all you're configuration in a simple .env file.
    Have a look at the HTML document that comes with the upload utility - there are some hints at then end of it to help with the setup.
