Nowadays, security is more important than ever, but several users have noticed photos of strangers in their Photo Library, along with corrupt or missing videos.<\/p>\n<p>Yes, your iCloud images could appear in someone else\u2019s photo library. And as you can probably imagine, that\u2019s terrifying. <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.macrumors.com\/2022\/11\/21\/icloud-for-windows-corrupt-video-bug\/\">According to <em>9to5Mac<\/em><\/a>, users recently started reporting the problem on its forum, and the thread continues to get more comments from people experiencing something similar.<\/p>\n<p>One user said that videos from his iPhone 14 Pro Max keep getting corrupted and are unusable in iCloud on Windows. Then, they mentioned seeing photos from unknown sources added to the video file.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>\u201cI\u2019ve been shown photos of other people\u2019s families I\u2019ve never seen in my life, soccer <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/game\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"7\" title=\"Game\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">game<\/a>s, and other random photos. Obviously, this is extremely concerning and does not exactly make me feel safe using iCloud.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Oddly enough, when someone tries to watch one of the corrupt video files, they see random photos and videos that could be from another iCloud account entirely. Of the handful of online complaints, most are from those with an iPhone 13 Pro or iPhone 14 Pro.<\/p>\n<p>Even worse, one report says it\u2019s happening on both Windows 10 and 11, and deleting the iCloud for Windows app and reinstalling it did not fix the issue. Basically, it sounds like this could be on the backend with Apple. Maybe when the server processes a video and fails, it replaces the clip with images. We\u2019re not entirely sure, but this doesn\u2019t sound good either way.<\/p>\n<p>As we all know,\u00a0Apple frequently brags about its secure devices, strict privacy measures, and everything else it does to keep your data safe. And while that\u2019s great, I certainly don\u2019t want my iCloud images showing up on someone else\u2019s computer.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ll keep an eye out for more details and update you as we learn more.<\/p>\n<p><small>via <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.macrumors.com\/2022\/11\/21\/icloud-for-windows-corrupt-video-bug\/\">9to5Mac<\/a><\/small>\n<\/div>\n<p><script>\nsetTimeout(function(){\n  !function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s)\n  {if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?\n  n.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};\n  if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;n.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';\n  n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;\n  t.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n  s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window, document,'script',\n  'https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\n  fbq('init', '1137093656460433');\n  fbq('track', 'PageView');\n  },3000);\n<\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
