• How to use iCloud

  HI, please help a total techaphobe. I need to store my photos in iCloud (that is already installed on my iPad, I have Apple ID n all). I tried to select the photos, but there is no option, then save in the cloud. Perhaps they are there already as the AutoSave is enabled, in which case, I need to have access to make sure that there so I can remove from iPad. There is nothing in "iCloud Drive" (I have no idea what Drive is in iCloud). All I can find on the line is either too complicated (it can not be that complicated) try to put myself in place (which I am already), or is completely irrelevant, even the things in apple support. I'm sure it's there somewhere, but it seems that I have to trawl through so much, I hope one of us guys can help me with a frank explanation...

  Go to iCloud.com on a browser and click the Photos app to see if your photos are indeed already in iCloud.  You can also check the Photos app on your iPad as well.

  Another thing to note, you can't delete photos from your iPad, because, unfortunately, is not how iCloud works.  It's a synchronization service and not an archival.  There is not your traditional cloud based.  Which means that it syncs your data on all of your devices that have them at your disposal.  Remove a device and it went on all devices.

  Hope that helps.

• 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

  Matt

  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

• I need to backup iphone on itunes if I use icloud

  Hello I'm out of disk space hard and currently use icloud for our two phones and two ipads. I have backups on my Mac iTunes which is about 90 GB. What I always have these backups to local hard drive iTunes if I am using iCloud. Would like to have the extra space back.

  Thank you!

  I only use iCloud for backup, but there are some differences between the 2 methods that may or may not be of interest to you. See the sections "iCloud backups" and "iTunes" in the link below for the differences: on safeguards for iOS - Apple Support devices

• If I use iCloud photo library to share photos on my Mac, make the stay of the files full original size on my Mac or they stored in the cloud?

  If I use iCloud photo library to share photos on my Mac, make the stay of the files full original size on my Mac or they stored in the cloud?

  Thank you!

  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 have reset 6 and restored iphone using icloud. I can not existing photos of text/email.

  I have reset my iphone 6 and restored using icloud. I was able to recover everything. My question is, I can not existing pictures of text/mail, but if I was taking a new image, I can't text/mail those. My system is iOS9.3.5. Any help?

  A backup includes not pictures. He doesn't understand what is in your film album, which has been restored.

  I guess that all other images have not yet been synchronized from your computer, or downloaded from iCloud photo library, depending on the method that you use.

• Does anyone use iCloud for everything?

  Does anyone use iCloud as your main service (i.e. for synchronization, documents of cloud and primary email address)? I mainly use it as my primary service, but finds that she has its drawbacks, especially when it comes to Mail and web messaging on icloud.com - it is a bit old and lack of functionality.

  Wonder if anyone has experiences and possible suggestions to fix/improve the service?

  I use my account for all iCloud. It is my main email account, iMessage account, allows you to synchronize my calendars, is my main calendar, synchronize and stores my contacts, contains most of my personal documents (although I also use the box, Dropbox and OneDrive).

  I had no problems with it. What features Miss do you? I rarely use iCloud.com. I mainly go there through the apps on my iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch and Mac.

• How can I transfer pictures from my computer to the iphone 5 using icloud

  How can I transfer pictures from my computer to the iphone 5 using icloud

  Normally, you do not use iCloud for this, you use iTunes, as shown below, but you can use iCloud photo library if that's your preference.

• 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.

• 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.

• storage used iCloud inconsistency.

  Hello

  I have 1 to plan storage iCloud. I downloaded pictures 100 GB and 400 GB of videos in the Photos app iCloud. There is no file in the items removed from iCloud. In the Photos on my MacBook Pro when I right click on all the pictures, select Get Info system reports 500 GB. However the use of storage iCloud this system reported 700 GB. I can see 700 used Go looking through system preference/iCloud/manage on my laptop and the web browser button.

  Note: Before you create the library currently used iCloud I had created a front in which I downloaded the right amount of photos/videos (hard to say how much, but could have been a couple of hundred GBs). I then deleted the first library and created a new one that I use now.

  I contacted Apple support, spoke to one of their senior advisers and after weeks of investigation, they weren't able to tell me why is this and how to solve it. They suggested to transform my library iCloud mode engineer/recovery or smth like that (I may be the wrong term) for further investigation, but then your content is no longer encrypted so I refused.

  Has anyone came across this?

  Do you know why it was such a big difference in the storage you use? And if so how to solve?

  I plan to download the entire library to a hard drive external (I have only 256 GB on my laptop), deleting the photos in iCloud and re - download the library back. I did a lot of changes (modification and deletion) in the photos / videos and added some new ones (not over 20GB) since I originally loaded them so I'm really reluctant to import all the data on the library from scratch.

  See you soon

  What is the library status on each device to iCloud

  in the iCLoud preferences Mac == > managing storage is show all this storage for photo library or some of them are things like iCloud Drive, backups, etc.?

  Since you have a lot of storage rather than try again I'd give him 45 days to see if things solve

• must anyone using iCloud photo sharing have an Apple device

  The family has an iPhone or a Mac computer.  Some computers are older and do not work elCapitan.  Should everyone have an Apple elCapitan device to use sharing photos running?

  You can view sharing photos without an Apple device, if you share your albums as a public web page and send the link to anyone without an Apple device, see this help page:

  iCloud, sharing photos - Apple Support

  https://support.Apple.com/en-us/HT202786

  You can even share albums with friends and family who do not use iCloud. Just open a shared album you have created, go to the people tab on your iOS device or click on on your Mac and turn on the Public website. Your photos publish on a website that anyone can see in an up-to-date web browser.
