Oct 5, 2015 8:40 PM in response to LarryHNby awarrumbungle01,Larry, that can't be right, when I search for a name on my iPhone a list of all those faces comes up....

Oct 6, 2015 12:21 AM in response to awarrumbungle01by Terence Devlin,The list of faces goes to iCloud Photo Library and is searchable, but the Faces feature - thumbnails etc - does not. You need to recover that from your back up.

Oct 8, 2015 6:02 PM in response to awarrumbungle01by léonie,★HelpfulThis document describes what is available from iCloud.
Use Photos and iCloud Photo Library on multiple Mac computers - Apple Support
You will also have to restore your projects from your backup, any books or calendars you created.
The searchable faces tags that sync with iCloud will it make possible to recreate the faces quickly, however, if you cannot restore the library from a backup. Photos uses them when suggesting more faces of a person to name.
