Photos upload to icloud account from a pc
How do I upload all my 5000 pictures from my Dell laptop to my icloud account? I need to free up room on my laptop and i have 100 GB capacity.
thanks!
iPhone 5, iOS 7.1
The largest iCloud account is only 55GB, not 100. Also, iCloud is designed for syncing data. It is not for general file storage. While you could add the photos to a shared stream (http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mmc0cd7e99) and they would stay in iCloud indefinitely, they would likely be at a lower resolution than the originals (3.1-3.5 megapixels).
Instead of using iCloud, use a different cloud-based service that is desiged for this (DropBox, Flikr, Smugmug, etc.). Some are listed here on Roger Wilmut's site: http://www.wilmut.webspace.virginmedia.com/notes/missing/inicloud3.html.
