[QUOTE="cwells, post: 1746056, member: 203169"] Thank you all for the insight into iCloud. I suppose novice users like myself simply assume that the term 'storage' implies permanent. With all of the language the computer world has created, it would have been nice if Apple had created a term which provides a clear distinction between temporary and permanent storage. Then again, no real cloud stays around forever. That should have been our first clue. I have not lost any photos as they are still in my cloud and now stored on an external hard drive which will most likely die with me some day. Perhaps a visit now and then is all I need to enjoy the stored memories. I think I like paper photos more than ever. Thank you everyone for your helpful answers. Very kind of you to take the time.
