    Hi

    I have 185gb of photos on my ICloud and am refusing to pay Apple €10 a month for more storage. Is there a way to download all my photographs to my Laptop? I don’t mind paying for a program that will do it as I don’t want to delete 13000 photographs without having a back up.

    Thanks

    You can use iCloud for Windows to put them on the laptop. Once you have the backup then delete.


    Manual way is just to login to iCloud.com on the laptop and download them in zip file.
    You can download 1000 at a time so you will have to do it in 13 batches.

    You can CTRL + SHIFT + Up/Down arrow to mass select till you get to 1000
