I am experiencing the same: After the update to iOS 13.0, photos sent and received under iOS 12.x are not present under "info" in imessage (but they are if I scroll up through the message history). If I send or receive a photo after the update, they are present in the "info" section. Is this a known bug? Known fix?
I had this problem before the update. Over 100 of my pics disappeared then later in the week the update came. So I thought the update would bring back my pics and it didn’t.
What settings did you lose by signing out of iCloud? Has anyone else tried this successfully?
All my photos have been downloaded. It took a few days for them to appear.
When you logged out and then back in what data did you lose? What did you have to reset up?
I guess I’m going to try logging out and back into iCloud.
Yes, this happened to me except it was starting from scratch on an iPhone 7 Plus. Please let us know what Apple engineering says to you when you hear back. This is an annoying problem.
And I just heard that apparently the newest 13.2 update doesn’t fix this issue either. Great.
I will know shortly but if its not solved I will be livid!
Did you lose any data signing out?
Did you ever get this resolved?
Well, the update didn’t work for me. I guess this is never getting fixed.
Do you pay for iCloud? Signing out will delete data off of the phone, but not in the cloud.
Data can be-redownloaded. But like you, I am hesitant on trying this right now. I’m scared my cloud will randomly screw up on me as well. But it doesn’t appear the update fixed this issue.
No , everything gone even after escalating to engineer.
This isn’t helpful for me. I lost photos in the photo app not my messages.
