• How to use iCloud in the image of the host for forum messages?

  I've just upgraded my Aperture library to Photos and spent three weeks to download all my photos on the cloud.  Now that they are on the rise in the cloud, I was wondering if I can use iCloud to host images for posting on internet forums and others?  Many of them will not directly let you download a picture, a link just here where she is already hosted (using the [IMG] tags).  In the past I had used SmugMug for this, but it seems silly to pay two subscriptions for the pictures of clouds (my library is big enough I'll have to pay Apple a monthly fee for additional storage space).

  I guess the way to proceed is to implement a shared Album and set it on the Public website.  It doesn't seem to be an option in the Photos app or site generated, to set the resolution of the images related to.  Any suggestions?

  Also: If you are going to edit the original photo, the shared up-to-date automatically version?  In my quick test convert the picture black white & in my pictures library does not change appearance of the image in the shared Album.  Sounds strange because it suggests Apple organize two versions of the image - one for me and one for sharing.  Surely, who double their storage needs?  If the photos are not synchronized, I might be better off just export those I want to publish on Flikr, or something similar (but free), which is correctly set up for what I'm trying to do.

  Thank you

  Yes.  It is the only way to share image files.

  The resolution is automatically set. iCloud Photo Sharing FAQ - Apple Support

  iCloud, photo sharing supports most of the formats RAW, TIFF, PNG, and JPEG photo. Once shared, pictures taken with your standard devices, reflex, or iOS devices will be up to 2048 pixels on the long edge. Panoramic photos can be up to 5400 pixels wide.

  Also: If you are going to edit the original photo, the shared up-to-date automatically version?  In my quick test convert the picture black white & in my pictures library does not change appearance of the image in the shared Album.

  No, you need to simply share the edited again version and remove the old version of the shared album.

  Shared albums use a different part of your library to iCloud iCloud. The storage of shared photos does not count against your iCloud subscription, but it is limited, see: iCloud: My Photo Stream and iCloud Photo Sharing limit

• 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.

• 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 without let it control my files?

  I'm not a fan of iCloud or machinery interfering with my activities.

  I had hoped to share my calendar with another computer in my home. During the implementation of the share through the cloud, I discovered that I have disabled my contacts in the list of things to share iCloud, the result would be that my laptop would lose all contact information.

  Just my experimentation with the cloud, put in place, I lost control of my machine.

  Now, if I cancel all my laptop upward has no contact info.

  Apple seems to think that I want to keep my connection with the cloud living and still active. I don't.

  Allowing the iCloud list to stay disabled restored my contacts. Unplug the ethernet cable, I found that Yes, I always had my contacts in my computer.

  Now, they are also in the iCloud? Can they be dumped there?

  I hate the presumption by apple that I want to store my contacts (and other files) in the cloud when all I had hoped to do was sync/share a calendar... and only the calendar.

  Not only is my placed information in the cloud, but also the information on the computer I wanted to share with took in the lands of apple.

  The owner of the other computer is not happy to now be obliged to keep the cloud full of personal documents and active. This owner also wants to clear the cloud of personal records.

  Is this possible?

  Are there manuals that describe the process?

  I would say iCloud is not the tool for you.

  That said, any other "sync" calendar type service works pretty much the same. 2 computers do not speak with each other directly. They use a server as a synchronization point. A 'cloud' is part of the synchronization process.

  What you want is a shared calendar that does not use a cloud server based to synchronize.

• How to restore a photo library using iCloud on a MacBook?

  I now use iCloud for back up my entire library (more than 200 GB).  How to restore a photo library (including all data of pictures like faces, events, etc.) on my MacBook Pro when my MacBook Pro needs to be replaced?

  I used historically Time Machine to backup and restore my library when my photo library migration to another laptop.  However, I now do not have a backup Time Machine full of my library because the library is too large to store locally.  So now, I'm opting for storing it on iCloud to Apple servers using their 'optimize' Photos option.  Now, if I replace my laptop, I would be sure that as transparent as Time Machine restore solution is to obtain and import the Photo library (for example, the index of all my photos, events / files, location tags, face tags, etc.) on my new laptop directly from iCloud.

  I now use iCloud for back up my entire library (more than 200 GB).  How to restore a photo library (including all data of pictures like faces, events, etc.) on my MacBook Pro when my MacBook Pro needs to be replaced?

  You can create an empty photo library on your new Mac, and then enable iCloud photo library for this new library of Photos.  The library will download icloud, and most of the elements will be restored.

  But iCloud is not a backup. It's a centralized storage to keep all libraries updated on all your devices.

  There are some things that will not be restored to iCloud, for example the albums faces or your projects.

  This document describes how a library will be uploaded to iCloud to another Mac:

  I is not entirely based on iCloud as a backup of your photos, but sometimes create a copy of your photo library on an external drive. In this way, you can restore your library, even if you are having problems with the internet connection, and it will be faster.
