iCloud photos missing on all Apple devices Nine months photos just disappeared from icloud, gone from all devices. Not deleted by me, not hidden, same icould account all devices. Apple support don't know why and can't rescue them. It is photos from June last year to March this year, so not even resent photos. I thought I could trust iCloud as a safe back-up solution, that I pay for every month. But apparently not. Anyone else with the same experience? [Re-Titled by Moderator]

All new "Live" iOS 16.2 iPhone photos are now imported twice into Monterey Photos Version 7.0 (460.0.120) Since the iOS 16.2 update to my 2020 iPhone SE (2nd generation), all new "Live" photos are now imported twice into Monterey Photos Version 7.0 (460.0.120), once as a 3-second movie .MOV file, and also as the 'Live' photo with a .JPG extension. Looking at the 'More Info' for a newly-imported "Live" image, the .mov file is 5.5MB, and the JPG is 3.1MB, so obviously, each file is now using more that twice the space used by the previous 'Live' photo alone. Obviously, I can delete the unwanted video clips, but I'm just checking to see if there's some new Photos setting or IOS Camera or Photos setting I've overlooked. Is this an Apple strategy to sell me a new iPhone and a new Mac with much more storage?
