• Is it possible to recover deleted photos from icloud?

  Stupidly, I didn't know that the iCloud storage plan did not provide for storage.  When I backed up my phone, it is cleared of my photos from my account.  Is it possible to recover?  Any way to go back to a previous backup?  I don't even have a deleted folder recently on my photos page.

  OK, something added here. You said that when you have backed up your device, it erased your pictures.

  When you do an iCloud (or iTunes) backup, it backs up everything on your device. It does nothing for the data on the device. Thus, your photos were eliminated in a backup. Do you import your photos in a library on your computer? The process makes you wonder if you want to delete the photos?

  We need a complete description, step by step, what you were doing, and what happened.

  See you soon,.

  -Default Photos

  iCloud - Photos

  -Faces

  -Camera

  OK, under 'Photos iCloud' there are very risky pictures I ever intend to be downloaded in iCloud. It's okay, I say, I'll just open "iCloud" and delete them. Boy, if it were that easy...

  So, I open "finder" and go to "iCloud Drive" on the left. There is nothing contained in iCloud drive. I go to iCloud.com and click on the pictures, it says "Welcome to photos, go into settings to allow iCloud photos." So, I'm a computer major and I don't know where these photos are available on the internet. They are not in my repertoire "iCloud Drive" they are not on 'iCloud.com', but they appear in the contacts under «iCloud Photos»

  Hello. I so want to know if there is a way to keep the photos on icloud and get them deleted on your iphone, so that there is no problem of storage of the device.

  iCloud is a synchronization system, not an external 'hard drive '. If you remove them on your device, they will remove icloud. To increase the available space, go settings/iCloud/Photos and select optimize iPhone/iPad storage. That will reduce the space required by 90% when it is fully effective.

  1. create a shared album (let's call it 'Videos apartment').

  2. Add all my photos and videos of my apartment hunting that is currently in my library to iCloud.

  3 share only iCloud library with my friends (they can add, comment, do what they want)
