• Is it possible do not use iCloud?

  Somewhere around IOS 9.3.1 it seems impossible to use my iPhone 4S without using iCloud. I cannot accept the terms of service to iCloud and won't be using iCloud, but it seems now that I can't install 9.3.2,and I can't sync my calendar between my Mac and my phone and I am presented with a contract about iCloud TOS screen 5 times a day. I'm not, and I never want to iCloud, but it seems to now use it or lose a lot of functionality.

  If I agree to service, can I make sure that absolutely none of my friends are stored in iCloud? According to my interpretation of the agreement, it seems impossible.

  Ban all this, is it possible to go back to an older version of IOS? I never would have used this phone if I had to accept at first, but now it seems that I must accept it or lose key features.

  Thank you!

  First of all, there is no 'legitimate' way to downgrade a version of iOS.  Don't try to "jailbreak" your phone.  Ask for trouble.

  As far as I know that there is no reason why you SHOULD use iCloud, but, as you say, you will lose the major feature.  I follow the last section of this article:

  iCloud: use iCloud.com

  and make sure you have signed-out icloud of every device you have (although if I read your post right, you've never signed in).  On your iOS iOS device 8 or 9 go to:

  Settings > iCloud > Backup, then turn it on iCloud backup (and everything else), also (for good measure) go to:

  Settings > general > storage & use iCloud

  and manage storage ICLOUD and make sure you have everything off here.

  I consider your backup a backup for my iTunes backup.  So for me, the worst of not having an iCloud account is not able to use the functionality of theft protection to locate my phone, but it's your choice.

• 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:

• Should I Photostream if I use iCloud photo library

  Hi, I use iCloud library on my MBP, two iPhones and iPad and I still active Photostream.

  I'll try to find our knowledge if I need Photostream as well as use iCloud.  I have more than enough storage for the moment in the cloud then from what I can tell Photostream is not something that would fail me if I turned it off.  At the same time, I can't find a definitive answer anywhere!

  Grateful that if ever I decide to stop using the cloud, I can turn Photostream for my last few thousand photos.

  I also try to work if there is anyway that I can reduce the amount of space on my iPhone which currently takes about 13 GB of photo library.

  Any help would be welcome.

  Thank you

  If you do not use my Photo Stream, turn off all devices.

  You need my photo only, stream if you also use older devices with iOS 7 or more, which can not support iCloud photo library. But if all your devices are set to synchronize with iCloud photo library, you don't need my photo stream. It might even cause problems.

• 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

  The photos full size will always go to the cloud. They also remain on (or download) your Mac depends on if 'Download this Mac originals' or 'Optimize Mac storage' is ticked in Photos > Preferences > iCloud. If it is enabled, it also depends on how much storage is available on your Mac.

• I bought storage additional iCloud and even if my credit card was charged no extra storage has been made available.

  I bought storage additional iCloud and even if my credit card was charged no extra storage has been made available. Anyone with similar problems? Please notify.

  < re-titled by host >

  Hi cyspider,

  I understand that you have purchased storage additional iCloud and your credit card has been charged, but you do not see that the storage has been added.  Have you received an email from Apple regarding this purchase?

  The first thing I would say is to restart your iPhone.  Then tap general > storage & use of iCloud.  In the iCloud section, the amount of 'Storage' has changed?

  If the Total storage has not been updated, the link below will put you in touch with the assistance of the iTunes store team.  They will review your account with you and take measures to solve the problem.

• Limited to 1 TB of storage to iCloud

  Why am I not able to get more than 1 TB of storage iCloud?

  I have well over 1 TB of photos I took over the years and I wish I could use iCloud backup when you use Photos.app, but I can't, since space max, I am allowed to buy with iCloud is 1 TB.

  It is not a product that apple offers.

  I don't know what input you expect here.

  Also, I can't buy a Mini Cooper 5000 horses. It is because they are not a.

  You can search your options as well. If you enable iCloud photo library (regardless of your purchased space) your photos will not be in all iCloud backups.

  And there is no iCloud backup for Mac, then you can consider using the iCloud for this player.

  This isn't really a design feature of the iCloud drive. To save your content to Mac. You would be better served, IMO, using Time Machine and an external USB hard drive.

  There are other online backup services that will store the entire contents of your Mac online. iCloud is not one of these services.

• Is there a way to recover deleted photos using iCloud?

  I got pictures on my Macbook Air and they were deleted and were also removed from the section "recently deleted. I want to know if there is any means possible to recover these photos? I open the "System Preferences" icon and clicked on "iCloud. After having clicked on "iCloud" it takes me to everything that is on my iCloud, of course, but when I click on 'Manage' on the bottom I need to manage my storage of all my photos, etc. When I click on the "Photo library" of this section, the number of photos and videos that I had initially before they all have been deleted. I was wondering if it is possible to get all of these photos and videos on my Macbook in my library? The only options it gives me when I'm on the "Library" section are 'Disable and remove' and 'Done' at the bottom right. It is said that I got all the pictures stored in iCloud and I just want that they all if possible. It also shows how much available storage using my photos and videos.

  If destruction were not synchronized, take a look at iCloud.com > photos, if they are still there, you can download them.

• Use iCloud settings shuts off when I opened the Pages and Numbers

  I have docs Pages and Numbers in iCloud (no road to iCloud) I want to access. There, they were stored on my old iPad 2 current running iOS 7.1.2 2.2.2 Pages and Numbers 2.2.2. I do not use iCloud Drive, just the 5 GB of storage free iCloud.

  On my new iPad 2 Air 2.6.2 performer 9.3.2,and 2.6.2 and number Pages when I opened two app, their desktop computers do not show the docs to iCloud. When I go to the settings in the applications of bot and activate using iCloud, as soon as I open an app, when I look in settings, with the iCloud button automatically turn off the coast. The only pop-up menus to choose from for iCloud on the new iPad 2 Air must use iCloud Drive, which I don't use.

  Is there a certain limitation in these apps that only allows to use iCloud drive and not the 5 GB free iCloud I use?

  Tips on how to connect to these docs Pages and Numbers in iCloud on my iPad 2? I know that I could email them to me, but that would be a lot of work.

  You do not use more of your space free storage on iCloud by using iCloud drive. iCloud Drive is simply the latest, most updated to access your documents in iCloud iOS 9.

  I suggest to turn it on and use it.

  It seems you want to use iCloud photo library as an archive of photos. It was not intended for this use.

  iCloud Photo library FAQ - Apple Support

  It is designed to allow you to have full access to your library without having to choose which photos and videos you store on which devices because it connects to your library using iCloud to all your devices, you registered this service. You can choose the option to Optimize Storage iPhone, which will automatically replace your photos in full resolution with optimized for your phone free storage.  Such use allows to my 64 GB iPhone store more 18 000 photos and 877 videos with fast access on my iPhone and elsewhere, while occupying only 4.8 GB on my physical device. The library full resolution resumes of more than 112 GB of storage which I can access in iCloud.com, on my computer, or by requesting the download of contents of high resolution on my iPhone with that I will make.

  Otherwise, if this does not work for you, you can use other services, such as Dropbox, archive your library, so you can completely remove the photos from your iPhone. If you deleted pictures from your iPhone now, they would delete the iCloud photo library so that he be kept in sync as your Contacts or Notes.

• Using iCloud Photos, while saving space on my devices

  I have an iMac, MacBook Pro, 2 iPhones and iPad. I would like to know if it is possible to do the following: I wish I could store all of my photos in iCloud / on my iMac, but being able to view them on my other iOS devices. I don't really want to download each photo for my iOS devices as space is limited - I just want to be able to look at photos when I am connected to wifi. Currently, I have my devices connected via iCloud but everthing is downloading to all my devices, eating in a space precious. Can anyone help?

  That's what iCloud. It is a synchronization service. It is no-storage device.

  You should look into a device off storage solution that can provide a web view of your images. You need to regularly move the images that you create on your iOS to this peripheral storage devices to keep your storage device clear.

  A suggestion to continue using iCloud would be to make your iMac the main place to store your photos. Move them from your iPhone / iPad to your iMac on a regular basis. Do NOT select the library or photo stream on iOS devices. Only on your iMac.

  Now only your iMac will have all of your photos and them syncs to iCloud.

  Then, your iMac do Albums shared by using the Web site option you can see your devices iOS you want.
