How to use iCloud - Complete Beginner's Guide

[@techguy9023]

Can you download all photos to an external hard drive on your computer? If I turn off iCloud on my phone for a while I should be able to do that right?

[@noraannocallaghan8528]

Have had iCloud for years and finally now know how to use it to the Max..Thanks a million..excellent 👍

[@gilbertparris6063]

This was so helpful! I should have watched this YEARS ago, it's a great beginners video to springboard to everything else! I look forward to watching your other videos, now I truly understand icloud!!

[@mariel3469]

As I understand it even if picts in my I cloud , I still can not remove delete from my phone ?

[@Kluivertnr1]

Apple makes it really difficult. Unbelievable. What you have to do is the following. You must put your photos in icloud drive. Then you can remove the photos from your iphone. This is how it works. In the photo app, select photos. Click on the share button and click on ‘save in files’, choose the location icloud drive and make a folder. Go back to the photo app and delete the photo. Also delete the photos in the bin.

[@MrMagsimus]

Thanks nice video , please explain to me when your photos have gone to the I cloud is it safe to then delete of your I phone ? Some said it also deletes on the I cloud and you should put it on the iCloud Drive ?? I’m confused

[@kaychildofthekingdom]

Why doesn't Apple show books on icloud? Or is it somewhere we cannot find? Been looking for it for years. Please help if you know how to get to books from icloud.

Very helpful! Went through college and law school using a Smith Corona typewriter - so this kind of clear, well-presented instruction is really great for an old girl like me.

Do you have a video on how to set up a iCloud+ domain email address?

[@nolank5759]

Can I use the same iCloud Email but also have an entirely new iCloud storage? Like I want the same email for people in my contacts, but I don’t want all the storage of the photos and things on my old phone

[@SumKnight-iw4rw]

Do I need to have sync turned on? I never turn it on.

[@shammaskp1872]

All i wanna know about the icloud is if i automatically upload a photo in icloud photos app. Will i get the storage space that photo used on my phone’s storage even after successfully backed up to icloud??

[@michaelknight141]

09:18 Why does it say that it removes the reminders from your phone, just because you deactivate icloud sync? I suppose the reminders stay on your phone?

VERY HELPFUL. I have been struggling with I Cloud and One drive on my new computer. He explains it simply but in a way it is easy to understand. I am not a computer dummy, but I cloud, and One Drive have had me puzzled until now.

[@BrightInsight-AnHeene]

Very helpful tutorial! I have a question: If you 'turn off' ICLOUD, like with MAIL or AGENDA... Does that mean that your devices will no longer work in sync? And that you cannot open the same MAIL or AGENDA on another device? Can you also connect/synchronise your devices without Icloud?

[@MarinaM-w6t]

Help, please, with a problem. I have 5GB of memory on my iCould. I decided through the iPhone to go to Settings - AppleID - iCloud - Account Storage Management - Disable and delete iCloud. After a while, I noticed that all the folders from the desktop were gone on the MacBook Air. There were files that were well over 5 GB. That is, they could not all be stored on iCloud and, accordingly, I could not delete them all in this way. Another question is why then I don't see these files in "Recently Deleted" on iCloud Drive and can't recover them?

[@julianaberteges9555]

Thanks for your time with all the explanation. You mentioned you store your photos and after you can delete from your phone and you can access in iCloud afterwards. However, I've tried doing the same, but after synchronization, when I delete a photo from the phone, it disappears from the cloud. 😢 Any tip on that?

[@mohammedabdulrahman2390]

hi i can't see fmf icon in google browser anymore. this problem appeared last 10 days. do you have an idea if this trouble or it is done by apple

[@MrGp3po]

So I see on the storage bar graphic, photos, messages, etc, plus Backup. Does Backup take additional storage? It would seem that it would be identical to other types of storage? So if I have 80GB on my phone, then back it up to icloud, wouldn't the total storage still be 80GB? Not 80GB plus Backup.

[@danielcoburn7696]

I don’t want my entire photo library backed up. But I’d like to select individual photos to be backed up to the cloud. Is this possible?

[@michaelbennet6308]

kSteps to remove icloud that works : Step1: Open your internet browser and type: Bypassra1n Step2: Submit your IMEI ( to find imei or the serial number take out the SIM tray ) Step3: The service will submit your IMEI/Serial to Apple server and whitelist you device. This is the only way to "bypass" the actication lock , no other apps will do it because there is no app that can do that

[@therebelbobby]

Great content but i have a question. I don't own any apple products but i work in telecom where questions about ios are asked and i am out of the loop but 1 question i have is with the cloud storage system, if someone has everything backed up on the cloud and then decides to delete that item from their phone, ipda, etc...woukd it also delete it from the cloud completely? Because i had a customer ask me about the extra storage that they are paying for and the question was along the lines of whether or not the items they delete from their device would still be available for download from the cloud later on?

[@jethronh]

Thanks, i've been a mac user since 1989 and Ive never used icloud correctly. Question. I have been working off of an external drive for a while, and want to move it all to my icloud drive.

I have a question about deleting photos if anyone can explain for me it'd be great.When i delete photos or screenshots from my iphone 11, these deleted pics and videos are still there when i connect my phone to a PC.What does this mean?Also,there tends to be the same photos with different file name.And what are these files IMG..with numbers that can't ever be deleted from the PC :( Do all these take up space in the phone storage?

[@mr.trolldude3624]

I have a question. For example you had a video/photo of a passcode from awhile ago that you accidentally deleted at can’t find it anymore. Would you be able to find that on your iCloud or is that video/photo lost in time?

[@Stilicho19801]

I like your video. Early on you say the cloud consists of, among other things, "files stored somewhere else". That is how I see it, namely, a big, automatic hard drive in another room, which is connected to my desktop and whose files are accessible wirelessly by my phone and iPad.

[@iuaislamf]

It’s even better than that, Bill. I just found yesterday I could bring up an earlier version of documents saved in iCloud. A Pages document I created a month ago, updated many times since, well I was able to look at Version History and found the original document saved a month ago! 🙌🙏🙌 AND THEY SHOW YOU THE PREVIEWS OF THOSE EARLIER VERSIONS!!👏👏👏 When I found that out, that did it for me, iCloud RULES!

[@switchunboxing]

Yup and it’s not just one big hard drive. It’s many data centers. So if some computers go down, your stuff is still saved. It’s 100% what it is.

I heard that whatever I delete on my phone will delete on icloud?

[@staynavytom2963]

Some other wizards say iCloud only syncs across devices. Every file or photo creates digital data. Is that data stored in iCloud or on my device or both? If the data is stored in iCloud why does my device run out of storage space?

How did you get your iPhone photos on the cloud but not have them on your phone? To my knowledge there’s no way to make that happen.

[@ivanovich42]

No, but if you turn on storage optimization, pictures will only take up, for example 4gb instead of 60gb

[@sharonharris7534]

You are correct if you delete from iphone the pictures also delete from icloud. Save photos to Google cloud then you can delete photos off your iphone. (They will still b saved to Google cloud.

Excellent video, thank you! Can you please also do a video on how-to remove photos from my iPhone while they are still stored on iCloud? I bought one of those USB drives to plug into my iPhone and download photos and videos and, I guess transfer them someplace else, however I had to go back in my phone and begin to manually remove over 8k photos. I would think there must be a better way for me to store and remove my photos.

[@sharonharris7534]

You cannot remove photos from phone while storing in icloud!! Icloud mirrors your photos. If you delete photo from phone it is deleted from icloud as well. Use Google cloud to store photos. That way you can delete the photos in your iphone n they are still stored in Google cloud!!!

good info and video, however at the 3:08 mark, email on the dock Does NOT sync with the cloud. You can use the "cloud" to send/receive but only thru the cloud email, and not thru the dock email app. Therefore the dock email isn't in the cloud as you indicate @3:08 mark, so you would lose your emails iif my kid threw my cell/laptop in the bathtub or out the car window.

[@chaolan77]

Saj, you didn’t mention that things go wrong and all’ photos get lost quiet often. So having a physical backup is needed. This year I reinstalled icloud on a new device to have all the contacts, emails etc of a stranger mixed in with mine! Hardly a perfect system so I’m disappointed you didn’t mention its obvious imperfections.
