  1. So if I took a picture on my old phone, is it possible to delete that picture on my new phone or on iCloud and have it be deleted off my old phone without touching my old phone?

  2. So when I get a another new iPhone I don’t want any of my old photos. I want a fresh start. They won’t transfer over to my new phone right??

  3. So if I completely wipe my old phone & I have backed up everything to iCloud which includes my photos; I won’t lose them from my new phone. Thank you

  4. Hi so I transferred everything from my old phone to new phone. My daughter is getting the old phone hers is set up with her own iCloud and my contacts, texts and photos are already on my new device. For some reason though all my photos are still stored on the old phone and I went to iCloud to turn off her iCloud photos and it already was. So pictures are still stored so I’m lost how to remove.

  5. Hello Aaron, i dont know what to belive anymore; I have an IPhone 7 Plus for few months and yesterday it showed on battery health 98% and then i looked a bit and then it showed 97%. I installed both Battery and Lirum device info too see what is the battery capacity(because the battery health on Apple is still in beta) and after few measurements those 2 apps told me thath it has 100% health. What to consider; the Pre-Installed tool or the other ones ?

  6. What if I need to delete a few photos from my iPhone without shutting off iCloud? And can I have a 1-way sync with the cloud? (Like upload to it for backup but not see my other phones’ pics)?

  8. I’m old school – I backup to iTunes at the end of every month.
    When switching phones, I backup the old one and restore to the new one, using that.

  9. What if you log out of your Apple ID on the phone that you're no longer going to use. will it disconnect from the pictures in iCloud. will you still have to delete stuff on the phone or will it disappear after you log out of your Apple ID

  10. I have accidentally turned on the iCloud photo back up now all my photos are in iCloud. But now I dnt want to keep my photos in iCloud. How could I recover my photos..??

  11. I’m in a very sticky situation. I got my phone for Christmas and didn’t have an Apple ID at that point so my brother let me use his until I made mine. Well I made mine and tried to play/ update games and it won’t let me. Do I just have to start over if I get a new phone?
