- How to use iCloud - Complete Beginner's Guide
What is iCloud? iCloud is cloud storage for Apple devices such as iPhone or iPad or Mac computers. Instead of taking up space in your iPhone, you can simply use iCloud. It will also back up and store your information securely across all devices.
It’s been around since 2011. Everyone gets 5GB of free iCloud storage to get started and it’s easy to upgrade at any time.
To use iCloud, go to icloud.com. Use your Apple ID to sign in to iCloud.
Once you sign in, you’ll see a number of apps and services you can use right on the website.
You can access mail, contacts, calendar, photos, iCloud Drive, notes, reminders, pages, numbers, keynote, find friends and find iPhone.
You also have a settings option that shows you the storage, how the storage is being used, and all your devices.
One of the most underutilized features of iCloud is iCloud Drive where you can save any document. This will also show on your Mac’s Finder window for easy file storage.
This is similar to Dropbox or Google Drive.

Have had iCloud for years and finally now know how to use it to the Max..Thanks a million..excellent 👍
VERY HELPFUL. I have been struggling with I Cloud and One drive on my new computer. He explains it simply but in a way it is easy to understand. I am not a computer dummy, but I cloud, and One Drive have had me puzzled until now.
Very helpful! Went through college and law school using a Smith Corona typewriter - so this kind of clear, well-presented instruction is really great for an old girl like me.
This was so helpful! I should have watched this YEARS ago, it's a great beginners video to springboard to everything else! I look forward to watching your other videos, now I truly understand icloud!!
Aloha my friend. Thank you for such a nice video. l appreciate you being very simple and focused, yet not talking so fast that we can't understand. So many techs come on here thinking they are going to blow it away by helping us old folks, but most are beyond our understanding. Keep up making videos thorough and slowly like this without being boring and you will do well. I wish you the best!
Thank you so much for teaching about iCloud
This was very useful information, thank you for showing us how to use it . Is easy to understand you much appreciate it . Thanx 👍🏼
Thanks for this overview of iCloud !!!
Thank you Just starting with iPhone and iCloud etc this week So great help thank you.
Thank you so much. I hope only had a vague idea about iCloud before this video. I am eager to learn more.
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge.
This really helpful and clear. Thanks for the information.
Very informative video thank you!
Thank you for sharing. I have no idea how to use this. So it was good to watch. I need to learn how to take stuff out of my cloud. It is full and I don't want to upgrade. Thanks again
Had little knowledge of icloud until this video. Thank you!
Super clear video, thank you!
That’s valuable content particularly as me being the new user as well as from non technical background, thanks for teaching me the basics ...
Thank you for this video ❤
I like your video. Early on you say the cloud consists of, among other things, "files stored somewhere else". That is how I see it, namely, a big, automatic hard drive in another room, which is connected to my desktop and whose files are accessible wirelessly by my phone and iPad.
It’s even better than that, Bill. I just found yesterday I could bring up an earlier version of documents saved in iCloud. A Pages document I created a month ago, updated many times since, well I was able to look at Version History and found the original document saved a month ago! 🙌🙏🙌 AND THEY SHOW YOU THE PREVIEWS OF THOSE EARLIER VERSIONS!!👏👏👏 When I found that out, that did it for me, iCloud RULES!
Yup and it’s not just one big hard drive. It’s many data centers. So if some computers go down, your stuff is still saved. It’s 100% what it is.
Explained in easy to understand terms
This is helpful as an overview. I do wish it went into more detail about the nuance. The confusing thing about iCloud to me is the more nuanced aspects.
Me too
Thank you so much for sharing what you know, it was very helpful. I did not know anything about cloud and how it can be use it> I feel good about myself by learning something new today. Thanks again.
Thx a lot, very helpful.
Thank you for this video 😁
well explained and helpful, Thank you for making such a great videos.
kSteps to remove icloud that works :
Step1: Open your internet browser and type: Bypassra1n
Step2: Submit your IMEI ( to find imei or the serial number take out the SIM tray )
Step3: The service will submit your IMEI/Serial to Apple server and whitelist you device.
This is the only way to "bypass" the actication lock , no other apps will do it because there is no app that can do that
Thanks for the very informative video
Excellent and clear
Thank you for sharing this important information about iCloud~

Very good, thank you

Thank you I know everything

Very helpful! Thank you! Given in understandable terms, I really appreciate this!
I didn’t get the apps
Great video
Great, thanks!
Very very useful ty
Very helpful tutorial!
I have a question:
If you 'turn off' ICLOUD, like with MAIL or AGENDA...
Does that mean that your devices will no longer work in sync?
And that you cannot open the same MAIL or AGENDA on another device?
Can you also connect/synchronise your devices without Icloud?
Thank you so much
Thank you.
Thanks this is very helpful
After allot of videos and recommendations on TH-cam, i gave @Daveutilities on Instagram a try and he unlocked my Apple Device
What a great video, so easy to understand, you have a nice presentation style!
Thank you
Very helpful upload in depth videos about tips tricks and how one can efficiently use an ipad
Thank you, very easy to understand. The Raven scanner system allows uploads to go directly to different file systems, could you check and offer a directions on how it works.?
Thanks
awesome love it and cool
Thank you so much.... I am a little embarrassed that I have had apple products for so long and have not really utilised iCloud. Now that I know hoe to use it I will never store things on my devices again:)
Thanks nice video , please explain to me when your photos have gone to the I cloud is it safe to then delete of your I phone ? Some said it also deletes on the I cloud and you should put it on the iCloud Drive ?? I’m confused
Great video! I have a question, tho, how can I move apps from my iPhone to the cloud? Some apps use a lot of storage and make my phone have very little storage left, how can I move apps to the cloud?
same, i wanna play genshin impact and its has 15gb but i dont have storage, i want to put my genshin impact to icloud because it has 50gb
Same
Same
I believe you can’t.
same
I appreciated your video. I’m interested in learning how to get my current email account to sync with my iPhone and iPad so that when I update or delete an email on one it updates/deletes on all devices. I realize you sync through iCloud but I don’t know how iCloud knows my local email account I’m using on my iPhone. I can’t change the iCloud name.
Do you have a video on how to set up a iCloud+ domain email address?
good intro! thx
Thank you so much for this video! I feel like I am getting my feet wet with today’s technology. It is so confusing to me. I just subscribed to your channel.
I have a question, how can I transfer some of my microsoft docs and excel forms from my HP laptop to my iCloud for easy access? I would appreciate your help. Thank you.
Why doesn't Apple show books on icloud? Or is it somewhere we cannot find? Been looking for it for years. Please help if you know how to get to books from icloud.
Have you made a video on how to remove photos from my iPhone while they are still stored on iCloud? And where can I find it?
This lesson was a revelation. I keep uncovering the genius of my iPhone - it's like peeling an onion. I will follow you going forward so I can learn all of its magic. The designers of this thing must have been tripping. It's the most amazing tool.
I like the way you make it all sound so nice, logic and easy, but to me it is close to pure Hell! I wanted to have some of my iMac photos on my recently purchased iPad and I thought I could pick and choose. Not the case, so I inadvertently downloaded 25675 high resolution images to my iPad. Not good. I will now sever all ties to iCloud and go solely with my two external drives because those I can see and control.
Bruh spent 10 minutes talking trying to sell us iCloud. Join us to thank him for his genuine efforts.
Thank you for the video. One of the things that confuses me, is how do you synch up the information?
Thanks for your time with all the explanation.
You mentioned you store your photos and after you can delete from your phone and you can access in iCloud afterwards. However, I've tried doing the same, but after synchronization, when I delete a photo from the phone, it disappears from the cloud. 😢
Any tip on that?
I’m stuck on this as well
Very useful information in very simple language, thanks. Question-> l try to open iCloud with all my correct ID & PW but it’s not opening, l also gone through forget your password & it’s keep on repeating same thing again and again, what’s your suggestion? Thanks:
Can you download all photos to an external hard drive on your computer? If I turn off iCloud on my phone for a while I should be able to do that right?
Great video. I have apple 200 Gb iCloud, but Google wants tells me I am out of storage with them and they want me to pay them too! I don’t want to pay both services. What should I do?😅
Thank You Please How to find my voices memos on icloud
Thank you for this information but where can I find my voice memo app on my I cloud I can't find it ?
thx mate for super video! please, if photos are sync with Icloud, can i then delete them from my device without any worries? will they still remain in Icloud? thanks
Great content but i have a question. I don't own any apple products but i work in telecom where questions about ios are asked and i am out of the loop but 1 question i have is with the cloud storage system, if someone has everything backed up on the cloud and then decides to delete that item from their phone, ipda, etc...woukd it also delete it from the cloud completely? Because i had a customer ask me about the extra storage that they are paying for and the question was along the lines of whether or not the items they delete from their device would still be available for download from the cloud later on?
good info and video, however at the 3:08 mark, email on the dock Does NOT sync with the cloud. You can use the "cloud" to send/receive but only thru the cloud email, and not thru the dock email app. Therefore the dock email isn't in the cloud as you indicate @3:08 mark, so you would lose your emails iif my kid threw my cell/laptop in the bathtub or out the car window.
Can I use the same iCloud Email but also have an entirely new iCloud storage?
Like I want the same email for people in my contacts, but I don’t want all the storage of the photos and things on my old phone
Can you store and use Gama data on iCloud to save space?
Interesting. Have you tried offloading files from your device or laptop, to the iCloud? For example, when running low on SSD, taking 100Gb say and copying it up to the iCloud, then seeing that it’s safely there, delete it from your device? That’s really useful for valuable files like video or something, your own music on GarageBand, etc? Thanks for the info, take care all.
Outstanding Video and just what I needed. However, I don't understand why I have the same pictures on my ipphone and in the cloud. The whole purpose of my buying more space was to free up space on my phone. What am I doing wrong? Subscribing to your channel now
Same here 😂
Saj, you didn’t mention that things go wrong and all’ photos get lost quiet often. So having a physical backup is needed. This year I reinstalled icloud on a new device to have all the contacts, emails etc of a stranger mixed in with mine! Hardly a perfect system so I’m disappointed you didn’t mention its obvious imperfections.
Thanks for your beginner's video - how do I make new folders on my cloud?
Click on the 3 dots and click new folder
@@chrisaugustin9181 is that true for all scenarios, on the iPhone, iPad, Mac, and iCloud website?🧐
hi
i can't see fmf icon in google browser anymore. this problem appeared last 10 days.
do you have an idea if this trouble or it is done by apple
Howfinity how I get to that section that u were on?
I am new to this with an iPhone 12, can I back up to iCloud info on my non Apple laptop from my iPhone 12
All i wanna know about the icloud is if i automatically upload a photo in icloud photos app. Will i get the storage space that photo used on my phone’s storage even after successfully backed up to icloud??
Hi, thanks very much for the tutorial. Really helpful. I have a large music collection on an Imac, I have an iphone 13 with 128gb storage. I have 50gb on icloud (may upgrade to 200gb), my question is, how can I add music to the cloud that I don't want taking up storage on my iphone? Thanks very much.
Not to sound rude but this video couldn't have been very helpful if you still think the cloud will free up space on your phone. The only thing I'm learning about the cloud is it mirrors whatever it is linked to (phone, laptop, tablet etc), therefore it is only a syncing device so you need to spend money on something else (Google drive, OneDrive) to truly store stuff and delete from phone space. There is iCloud Drive but its different than the mf cloud which is a whole new thing to figure out. What a nightmare. They hate us and are laughing at us.
Some other wizards say iCloud only syncs across devices. Every file or photo creates digital data. Is that data stored in iCloud or on my device or both? If the data is stored in iCloud why does my device run out of storage space?
would you know why my health app on my iphone 13 isnt showing up on Icloud even though all of the settings are correct ?
Does it take up your Compture space that what I need to know?
How do you get ipad music to the cloud.
So how do you access, view, delete, or copy photos in iCloud to a remote hard drive?
Excellent video, thank you! Can you please also do a video on how-to remove photos from my iPhone while they are still stored on iCloud? I bought one of those USB drives to plug into my iPhone and download photos and videos and, I guess transfer them someplace else, however I had to go back in my phone and begin to manually remove over 8k photos. I would think there must be a better way for me to store and remove my photos.
You cannot remove photos from phone while storing in icloud!! Icloud mirrors your photos. If you delete photo from phone it is deleted from icloud as well. Use Google cloud to store photos. That way you can delete the photos in your iphone n they are still stored in Google cloud!!!
if loose my phone can get everything backed up on the icloud
What I don’t understand is if you are on your MacBook and toggle photos off under iCloud does that stop the backup from your iPhone? Or are they independent but sharing the same cloud?
I bought a new iPad Air 4th generation but I can’t get the iCloud key chain to work although the keychain tab is green. Any suggestions?😋🥂
Can I download all the apps in the world with the two terabyte ICloud ?
How can I put music there and also listen to music on my phone from I cloud ?
Can access file without internet ??
Can you download third party data from the iCloud into a new phone? Like documents by readle? Thanks!!
Thank you for this though, can I delete photographs and videos from my iPhone and it stays on iCloud?
When I go to my iCloud over to the left I see untitled folders.
I do not see those in this video.
I do not know how to use them. Can anyone help me?
Do I need to have sync turned on? I never turn it on.
How do I change the icons to a list on icloud drive?
Thanks for a great video. Subscribed... Question: Someone just stole found my iphone. A lot of the latest videos and photos are not in my cloud. :( Is there a way that I can use my macbook to get my phone to upload the rest of my photos onto the cloud? I have enough storage available and have a lot of precious photos. I can see the phone has moved from where it was taken but now it's probably off. I'm hoping they will turn the phone on again and just return it for a reward when they see the message I sent.. but if not.. I'd love for the cloud to just work if they turn it back on. The phone is locked so they can just see the message asking to call a number to get the reward. Is any cloud/phone management possible using only my computer? Any thoughts would be so appreciated.
You are very helpful. Can you backup everything on your laptop including apps and just use the backup in iCloud to migrate to a new device instead of using and external hard drive? If so, wouldn’t that be more convenient?
