I turned on ICloud backup for the photos. Most photos uploaded to the cloud but a large number are displaying as an icon with a exclamation point in a triangle. How do I make them appear in the cloud? The photos display on the phone but some are missing in the cloud. I am using the correct ID when logging into the cloud.
iPhone 12, iOS 15
Can you add adjustments to the photos with the exclamation point on your iPhone? Or can you not work with the photos on the iPhone either? What is the image format of the photos that are not appearing in iCloud? Are the photos JPEG or HEIC or have they been saved to photos from other apps and are in a different format?
What is the status bar showing on your iPhone below the “All Photos” album? Is it still showing uploading?
Yes I can make adjustments to the photo on the Iphone and when I do it will then display in Icloud. If I revert to the original on the Iphone it will update in the Cloud with an exclamation point in the triangle. The photos were taken with the Iphone 12. I don't know where to look on Iphone to see format. I can't say for 100% certain but most of the icons with the exclamation point in the triangle were taken with the IPhone 12. If I did a screenshot, those are showing. If it is a picture or video from the iphone 12, they showing with a exclamation point. The other interesting thing is that all photos prior to February 2021 are displaying correctly in the Cloud. After February 2021, very few show, but there are some that show the actual picture taken with this phone.
I don't believe any of this information applies after reviewing it. I never restored this phone. This phone an orignal phone that I recently (about a week ago) turned on the backup photos to Icloud. When I did that, some of the photos are not showing in the cloud. Instead they show as an icon with an exclamation point inside a triangle.
I have a second device (ipad) that I use the same ID on. I am able to see all photo that are on my Iphone on the Ipad. As mentioned a lot of them are showing as an exclamation point in a triangle in Icloud. So it really seems like something isn't display correctly in the cloud. I was able to move a number of the photos into an album and then download them from the album to my PC and they all displayed correctly when downloaded to the PC. I thought it would be easier to put stuff into albums via the computer rather than a smaller display. Still looking for ideas on why they don't display in the cloud.
I don't see a status bar below all photos.
