posting for traffic - urgent help with iCloud family sharing

[ittrouble]

Can an organiser on iCloud family sharing access another adult member's data? I think my husband deleted some of our photos that were saved on my MacBook photos app, also on iCloud. He is organiser on iCloud family sharing. I want to be sure before I ask him, he can get very angry.
Also, will he know that I logged in to my iCloud a/c today?

I don’t think so, but why would he be angry? And why would it matter if you signed into your own iCloud account?

He can access / delete the files, yes. That's the point of family sharing. And he won't know you've logged in. (Background: I'm an IT Consultant, use family sharing myself).

So these photos were directly transferred on my Mac. So they were saved on Mac photos and in my iCloud Id but my husband is the organiser of this iCloud family sharing. As per my understanding, only files, photos which are specifically shared by members are visible and accessible to other members. I never shared these photos.
We fought about them recently and they are gone.
I want to figure out if he logged into my iCloud account or my MacBook using my email and password to delete these when I was away, which is a big deal for me.
We have a lot of problems and he gets very angry, very easily.

Sounds like your problems are a bit beyond the photos op

I'm the iCloud organiser for my family and I can't see any of my husband's files or photos, only those in specific shared folders where we have both added items for sharing. If you log onto iCloud via your web browser it has a recently deleted folder, which might be worth a look.

However, if I logged in as DH via the web browser or his laptop then I could see and delete all his files. I know his laptop password and all his passwords will be in the keychain.

More worrying is that he can track your phone (in fact I think you call can track each others). You might not want him knowing where you are all the time.

I agree that your photos are the least of your worries.

Going forward, especially if you want to store stuff securely away from him, I would set up something else, eg. Google Photos or DropBox etc. Or a cloud backup service, that will back up your photos and files on your laptop to somewhere else eg. Back Blaze. Just make sure you don't store the password on your laptop!

I am checking my iCloud again. I didn't see those photos in recently deleted.

Is it possible to find out when these photos might have been deleted? A log file?

Also, please can you explain what you meant by he can track my phone? Do you mean he can see my texts, and other data on phone?
