I know someone who has recently signed up to use iCloud for his photo collection and just two days ago had a problem where he couldn't access files on his iPhone by just plugging it into his Windows laptop. I found out that it seems that iTunes is needed to access such devices, and it seems to have solved his problem and he uploaded hundreds of pictures, slowly through Wi-Fi, to the iCloud website.
But yesterday he was in a rush to download all his Favourite photos from iCloud Photos from the website, and he found that when he selected some files, not all of them would download, but sometimes they would, if it was a selection of two or three. I figured it would not be a problem for Windows PCs as I've never had that problem, but then again, his laptop is riddled with malware and he frequently gets annoying pop-ups, so could that be it?
