How do I know if my photos are backed up on my iPhone? I'm confused 😳?
Okay I have an iPhone 8 Plus, I'm getting the iPhone xR in a couple of days. I know my phone already backs up and needs to be backed up before switching over
Now there's an option on my iPhone that saids "automatically upload and store all on your pictures in iCloud to access on your devices" but that option is turned OFF
Am I suppose to turn it on? Does that mean my pictures aren't already backed up? I don't want to lose my pictures when I switch to a new phone. So I don't know what option to hit or what that even is?
And no I don't have a computer to store anything on too just my phone btw.
Yes. Turn on that setting. When your phone is connected to Wi-Fi and charging, everything in your phone will back up when that setting is on
- Will my photos/videos be backed up if I update my iphone? I remember having issues with iphones a couple years ago with this and can't remember if it did or not.
- Where did my photos go after I backed up my iphone? I plugged in my iphone to my desktop which has windows 8 and it automatically opened itunes. It asked if I wanted to back up my iphone and I did. It took a while to back it up because I had alot of pictures. When back up was complete I unplugged my iphone. Now I can't find where my photos are. I can see my voice memos in tunes and when I got to edit/Preferences/devices it shows when the back up was but doesn't let me do anything.
- Where are my backed up iphone files (photos) in my computer? So I just wanted to plug in my iphone 5 to my dads computer (its a pc) so i could download some of his music lol but it made me back up my iphone so i was like ok ya whatever, but now i'm concerned because my plan was to back up my iphone, and then delete everything off his computer… I just have photos and videos and such that parents shouldn't see lol so does anyone know where these files are?
- My iphone was just stolen, is there a way to remotely get my photos backed up on icloud? My icloud was full so my photos were not backing up. Now my phone is gone and stolen. I was wondering if I clear out my icloud would there be a way to get it to update my photos from my phone so I will still be able to have them? Also, when I go to find my iphone my device does not show up. Is there any other way to find my phone and get it back?
