My photos are lost from 2008 till now in iCloud

Re: "My photos are lost from 2008 till now in iCloud"

You might want to check in "Recently Deleted" to see if they are there. If there (eg: after being accidentally deleted): you can restore them:

Eg: Delete and recover photos and videos on iCloud.com

Eg: says:

"Recover photos and videos

(1) Go to icloud.com/photos, then sign in to your Apple Account (if necessary).

(2) Select the Recently Deleted album in the sidebar.

(3) Select the photos or videos you want to recover, then select Recover.

NB: If you deleted the photos from a computer or device while they are synced to iCloud, that also deletes them in iCloud. However they would generally remain in "Recently Deleted" for up to 30 days before being permanent deleted.

Apart from back-ups of devices etc., iCloud is mainly a sync service, keeping all our data in tune everywhere we choose.

If you haven't already: Apple suggests that we archive copies of everything we store in iCloud for safekeeping: More info. on how to: Archive or make copies of the information you store in iCloud - Apple Support
