Hi,
Just did a factory reset on my iPhone 4S running 5.0.1 yesterday.
It seems that none of my old photos from "Camera Album" restores, although I've got more than 4.7 gbs photos stored according to iCloud?
This bothers me, as it is more than 1.000 photos that I've apparantly lost.
iPhone 4S, iOS 5.0.1
Actually, nothing restores except my contacts. This is annoying, as I just paid for 10 extra GBs of storage, which is useless unless iCloud actually WORKS.
iCloud only backs up photos in the camera roll, nothing else. It's the user's responsibility to sync photos on devices to their computers via iTunes.
Camera Album = Camera Roll. My mistake. All my photos were on the camera roll, and the backup have been done (apparantly, due to the photo backup size being 4.7GBs), but the backup doesn't return to the phone?
I selected the iCloud backup when restoring my phone, but as said, the only thing that have returned to my phone is my contacts.
And my apologies for the messy language - Us danes don't ace english. :-)

As you can see, I have 4.7GB photo backup - that never gets DL'ed to my phone again.
I really need the opportunity to browse my iCloud backup! :-(
Why doesn't my photos in my iCloud backup restore?
