Q: iCloud tutorial
Ive just purchased iCloud @ £2.49/month for 200mb. what is the best way of uploading my vids+ photos and confirming that they are stored in the iCloud?

I truly dislike Apple's new way of calling everything "iCloud" when in fact they are different things. If you have purchased the videos from the iTunes Store they are not part of your 200GB iCloud, they are already in your free iCloud (though it is wise to make sure you have backups at all times).
Read these so you are clear on how iCloud Drive is intended to be used. the bottom line is it isn't an excuse for not buying a hard drive and making sure you have a local copy.
