icloud backup and camera roll pictures
I need some help regarding an issue I ran into. I was experiencing some issues with my phone, so I decided to restore using icloud backup. I thought this was a great feature, but now I'm regretting it. My camera roll says I have 'X' amount of pictures and contains blank thumbnails. When I click on one of the blank thumbnails in my camera roll, it continues to say loading. Granted, I'm trying this as my phone is still 'syncing' to iTunes (which, by the way, is taking forever). So, I guess my question is this: what exactly is going on? According to the Apple website regarding restoring using icloud, it backs up all data (including photos). Am I missing something here? Perhaps someone can help. Any advice is greatly appreciated.
iPhone 4S, iOS 7.0.3
