If there is no form of backup available they are gone.

Actually you can skirt around this by looking in the Photos Library "Package Contents" to rescue your files. Nevermind!

Activation Lock Problem

If you purchased the device second-hand, then it is useless without the Apple ID and password to which it is locked. If you don't have it, can't remember it or cannot get it, then the device is useless to you. Try to get your money refunded, if you can, or take it to an Apple store for an exchange provided they will help you. If you are the original owner then take the device, a copy of your purchase receipt and identity proof to an Apple retailer where they may be able to assist you.

Hi

It is certainly not normal for your Apple Watch to restart unexpectedly.

Whilst I can't say why that has been happening, the following steps may help to stop if from happening again (check performance after each before moving on to the next):

• Check that you are not accidentally force restarting your Apple Watch:
  • If your watch is worn too close to your hand, the Digital Crown and side button may be pressed and held down by the back of your hand when flexing your wrist.
  • It may help to wear your watch a little further up your arm and/or with the buttons on the other side:
    • To change the configuration: on your iPhone, in the Watch app, go to: My Watch (tab) > General > Watch Orientation > choose the preferred wrist and side for the buttons.

• If you have not yet done so, also update your iPhone to the latest software:
  • Update the iOS on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

• Close all apps and restart both your iPhone and your Apple Watch (normally):
  • Close all open apps on your iPhone:
    • Double-click the Home button, then swipe up on each app preview to close it.
  • Turn both devices off together, then restart them, starting with your iPhone:
    • Restart your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    • Restart your Apple Watch - Apple Support

• Having followed the first step, if the issue persists, then unpair and re-pair your watch again:
  • The Watch app on your iPhone takes a backup of your watch automatically when unpairing via the app.
  • Initially choose to Restore from Backup during set up (most data and settings will be restored, with some exceptions, such as Apple Pay cards, passcode).
  • If the issue persists, consider instead unpairing and setting it up as a new watch.
  • Unpair your Apple Watch and iPhone - Apple Support
  • Set up your Apple Watch - Apple Support

• Remove apps and watch face complications:
  • Remove third-party apps from the Dock and/or remove them completely from your watch and then monitor performance after adding them back, one at a time.
    • Open apps
  • Remove watch face complications and monitor performance as you add them back:
    • Change the watch face on your Apple Watch - Apple Support

If the issue then persists, I suggest that you contact Apple Support (remote diagnostics and/or mail-in service may be available, if required) or visit an Apple Authorised Service Provider for assistance:

Export you originals from Photos after editing - use "File > Export  > Export unmodified original", and enable "Export IPTC as XMP". This will save the original together with the metadata as an XMP sidecar file. Save them on a backup drive. You will need them, if you want to add further edits.

Then export the modified version from Photos with "File > Export  > Export ... photos" and make sure that you use the original pixel size and a very high JPEG quality (or better export as TIFF, but you will need even more storage than before). Enable the checkmarks to include all metadata.

Reimport the edited versions, then delete the original version.

Use the crop tool in photos to crop the photo to the aspect ratio -widteh and height, that you will need for the photo place holder of the book page.  It is not a question of the file size to be able to zoom out, when you place a photo.

Reboot your phone and see if calendar changes stick after it comes back up.

Press and hold BOTH the power and home buttons at the SAME time until the Apple Logo appears.

Correct - without the original you can not sync the photo
