How to use iCloud for storing the photos so I can free up space on iPhone?

My wife is running out of space on his iPhone 5s. She bought more storage iCloud to upload photos and then delete photos from his iphone. When she did, pictures disappeared as her iCloud account, lose the photos of the early days of our newborn!  How do we use the iCloud storage that pay as essential to store photos and videos, so it can free up space on his iPhone? Thank you!

You cannot delete the photos and keep them in iCloud photo library.

You can reclaim space on your phone with: settings > Photos & camera > optimize iPhone storage that keeps the smaller version, more low resolution on the phone and original version enlarged in iCloud.

You can use a service advantage cloud service like DropBox or Flickr 3rd.

The best way to free up space is to import them to your computer and delete what you don't need on your phone: iOS: import personal pictures and videos of iOS devices to your computer

  • How to use iCloud for PC without an iOS device?

    I received an invitation to join a place to share photos of iCloud.  I'm not an Apple user, do not have an iOS device (or plan in the near future).

    I've created an Apple ID iCloud and have iCloud account.  I downloaded and installed iCloud for Windows on my PC.  However when I try to run the program and enter my Apple ID and password to connect, I get the following message:

    Unable to connect

    Your identifier Apple must serve to iCloud on an OS X device or an iOS to install before you can use iCloud for Windows.

    Is this to say that I can't access the iCloud photo sharing subscription since I did not have an iOS device to set up my account?  ICloud photos can be shared with users who have an iOS device to that?

    Thanks in advance.

    You can create an Apple on a Windows PC ID, but you cannot create an iCloud account - it is a separate additional process and unless you've been able to create one on a Mac or iOS device you don't have an iCloud account, only an Apple ID. This is why the error message you see.

    iCloud accounts are essentially positioned as a way for Mac/iOS users synchronize data from their devices and are a free service at the Starter level; the control panel is intended for users of Mac/iOS, which also happens to have a Windows PC. They are not intended for Windows users only. Unless you can find a way to set up a device to iCloud on a Mac or an iOS device, you will not be able to move forward.

    iCloud sharing photos can be configured as a public or private - the first are directly accessible in any web browser, but private sharing requires you to have iCloud account. If your source is not willing to set up a public share (that would be accessible to the world in general) you will not be able to access it without an iCloud account.

  • Can I use iCloud for storing photo backup?

    Hello everyone, I was wondering if it is possible to use iCloud as photo backup storage. I have a lot of pictures on my OS 10.7.5 and save them on the cloud. Is this possible? is it possible even with an older version of iPhoto?

    Thank you friends mac colleagues.

    No iCloud by itself. You can save the images on iCloud drive, but then they are just images randomly without structure, unless save you them in a kind of files that will help you organize them in the drive.

    If you want to archive and save photos, you should be import on your computer, or you must use a Cloud service of archiving such as Dropbox or Google Photos. It is the only way to store your photos.

    Good luck

  • How to use Labview for measuring the reflectance at different wavelengths automatically

    Hello!

    I'm using labview to communicate with MS257 (a monochromator). If I do not use Labview, I have to use the hand controller (set a wavelength from 300 to 1100 under a grating (a total of four grids).) It takes a lot of time. So I want to use labview to realize the automation. But I don't know how to do, I still can put only a wavelength as a command for MS257, not making any difference.

    Does anyone know how to deal with this?

    Thank you for your time.

    So where are you stuck? It is a fairly common task. Inside of a loop, you can increment the "xxx" and build a table of responses. Look at the Format function in the chain and a knot of shift register/feedback.

  • using iCloud for photos

    Decided that I would try using iCloud for synchronization of photos to all my devices - ipad and iPhone.  A simple and way big to keep all the features of update of the sounds.  I followed all the directions for setting this up and find that this more complicated that we shouldn't.  I finally got some pictures in the library iCloud for my computer, but of course they do not appear on the iphone or iPad.  I apparently won't implement the iphone or the ipad properly.  I think I tried everything I could find on this operation, but nothing works. For some reason when on the iPad and try to access the iCloud.com with Safari, I get the message that the server is not responding.  When you do the same thing on the iPhone, it connects but it takes me to a window that says "Setup iCloud on this device."  Seems weird like iCloud is already on this currency.   Bottom line is that I spent hours too much try to do the job as well as to purchase more space icloud. I might have to overcome my 8 year old grandson to help me.

    Yyou don't use iCloud.com to display your photos on your iPad and your phone, you use the Photos app with iCloud library active, just like the photos on your Mac.

  • Using iCloud for other files storage

    Hello

    I bought an extra storage in the hope that I can save files other than those created by Apple applications. In particular, I want to back up all my photos that are currently managed by Photoshop, as I am a passionate photographer. I fight to see how I can use iCloud for anything other than files created by Apple apps.

    Anyone know if this is possible?

    Thank you very much.

    No, it is not possible. You can use iCloud for storing photos using the Photos app and iCloud photo library:

  • How by-pass iCloud for photos of digital devices?

    I recently upgraded to an iMac 27 "new and I want to spend all my photos my old computer.  My old system was a Mac Mini that I never used iCloud on because the internal drive was small so I stored all my pictures on an external hard drive.  A majority of these photos were taken with my digital camera.  I know that you only have 5 GB of space free iCloud and my photos are much more than that.

    How can I keep my photos on my computer without them going to iCloud?  I use iCloud for pictures taken with my iPhone and my iPad so I don't want to disable this feature.

    Go on your Mac in Photos > Preferences > iCloud. There you can "download for Mac originals" where they will be offline. I hope this helps!
