How to Download Photos from Apple's Cloud Service on Windows

Time needed: 4 minutes

1. Open a web browser

   First, go to the iCloud website and click “Sign In”.

2. Sign in with your Apple ID

   Then, on the next screen, enter your account email or phone number, your password and click on the arrow pointing to the right.

3. Write the required numbers

   Then, if the next page is “Two-Factor Authentication”, write down the six-digit code.

4. Decide whether you want to save the verification code

   If the question “Trust this browser?” appears on the next screen, choose between the options “Not now”, “Don’t trust” and “Trust”.

5. Search for images in iCloud

   Then, on the main screen of your account, click on the icon in the “Photos” section.

6. Access the photo library

   Then, in the iCloud photo folder, individually mark the content you want to download or select all of them at once with the “Ctrl+a” command. In this case, if there are more than a thousand images, the platform will not allow you to download them. Therefore, you will need to mark up to a thousand photos at a time. To download the content, click on the cloud icon at the top of the screen.

7. Complete the download

   Finally, save the compressed photos in any folder on your computer.
