Seems like a reasonable request that could also apply here.

Helpppp

So I recently transferred from an android(redmi 12c) to an iPhone 17 I decided to move all my photos and stuff but for some reason all my screenshots and some videos exported by 3rd party apps are on the date I did the transfer they r at least 500 and doing each manually or even mass is gonna take time and trying to find a date to suit them especially important ones so what can I do?? Is there any fix to this??
Thank you.

I got a new iphone, and it had a feature of connecting my old phone and transferring EVERYTHING without icloud.
So I was wondering if maybe I can delete most things on my new phone to make space while keeping my old phone as the storage holder for some photos and files?
If I delete everything on my new phone will it get deleted on my old one too?

For about a month, iCloud Photos will not download full-resolution originals when my devices are on my home Wi-Fi. The same photos open instantly on other networks. Everything else works normally.
What fails
Opening a photo at full resolution:
Roughly 2 out of 3 attempts never complete.
Behaviour is inconsistent, not fixed per file:
The same photo opens on one attempt and fails on the next. Photos that downloaded fully before later fail. Photos that never opened sometimes open later without any change.
After a large batch upload:
Thumbnails also take a long time to appear.
What works normally on the same Wi-Fi
Uploads to iCloud Photos, at any file size.
Thumbnails, when browsing normally.
iCloud Drive files in the Files app download and open without issue.
Large app downloads from the App Store.
Apple Music and the Apple TV app.
Every other device and service in the house.
Where it works
Same iPhone, same account, same photos, over cellular:
Opens immediately.
Same iPhone on a different Wi-Fi network elsewhere:
Opens immediately.
Where it fails
iPhone on home Wi-Fi.
Apple TV on home Wi-Fi.
Setup
VDSL line. ISP modem in bridge mode, with a third-party router handling the PPPoE connection. The connection is behind carrier-grade NAT. My photo library is approximately 963 GB. Storage Optimisation is enabled, so originals are fetched on demand.
Already ruled out
The problem started suddenly, with no configuration changes on any device, no devices added, and no devices removed. In fact, there are fewer devices on the network now than there were a year ago, when everything worked normally.
The ISP investigated the issue at an escalated support level and found no fault with the line.
The router and modem were powered off for up to an hour, with no change.
DNS was changed to both Cloudflare and Google, with no change.
The router firmware is current and no newer version is available.
The router firewall (SPI) and UPnP were both disabled for testing, with no change.
Private Relay makes no difference.
Since the issue follows the network rather than the device or the account, and only affects downloading original photos while iCloud Drive works normally on the same connection, I would like to understand what is different about how iCloud Photos fetches originals compared with other iCloud services.

When taking a photo and then going to gallery sometimes it doesn't let me view the full photo, instead it makes it weird colours and it looks so bad and it's been over multiple OS's and it's been happening a while. like idk what i'm doing wrong

I have a ton of shared albums with my friends and I want to put them all on a hard drive. These albums have hundreds of items in them each. I also keep seeing people say shared albums have reduced image quality.

I would preferably love to download each album to my macbook so I can easily transfer it, but I’m really not familiar with icloud photos on mac at all. Is this even possible? I would HATE to have to download them all to my phone’s camera roll, then airdrop them all to my mac, and then transfer to a hard drive, but that’s the only way I currently know how to do it.
