Actually I
am not sure I was tangling with an invisible i-cloud or a dark i-cloud.
About a week
ago we visited an Apple Store and we each bought a new iphone 6s.
First we had
i-phones 4. I was
always taking pictures with my i-phone 4 .
They were so handy and they automatically loaded themselves onto my
i-pad. It is nicer to view your
pictures on the larger screen of the i-pad rather than the tiny screen of an
i-phone.
After I got
the i-phone 6, the pictures quit being automatically loaded to the i-pad.
I couldn't
have that. I tried calling the Apple
help desk twice and they had me run various tests and they could not understand
why it wasn't working.
We went back
to the Apple Store and I signed up for some time with what they call a
Genius. I think they have several Apple
experts that have the title Geniuses. They
are so technical gurus you have to get an appointment with one. The Genius
checked out my new phone and said nothing was wrong with it. I also brought my mini-ipad. He checked it out and said nothing was wrong
with that either.
He thought
it over, drummed his fingers, and ran a
few tests and concluded that it was the i-cloud. Ever since I called the Apple help number and
did what they told me to do it has been in the state of downloading, or
uploading (I forgot which) 163 pictures for three days. He said
the i-cloud thinks one thing and trying to do something else.
I thought
the i-cloud data was going around and around and tied itself in a knot.
He lined up
for another expert to call me at home at a certain time. She did.
She suggested we wipe out everything and start over, but we were unsure
if we wanted to do that. And she was
worried afraid of deleting some important stuff. I said there is nothing that important on
it. Pictures come and go.
We had an
appointment and had to go. We arranged
with her for another Apple expert to call us back at a certain time. Which another lady did. We followed her directions and it
worked! Or, as far as we know it worked. We will see in time, after getting help from
six Apple experts. None had come across my i-gadgets' problems and could not figure out
how to fix something they couldn't see.... the problem, like the i-cloud was
invisible.... which is fitting.
