I swear when I put the lids on and put these into the water bath the pickled cranberries (right side )had a half inch of headspace and the jam only had a quarter inch but my pickles have floated and my jam has settled (bubbles settling out I guess?). Is this okay?

My understanding is, if they had the correct headspace at processing, it’s fine. Stuff moves after, and that’s expected.
The rest will tell you they need to know you’re process and such. If you followed a tested recipes, with the correct head space, you’re fine.
Siphoning! As long as your headspace was right when you loaded them in you should be good to go! The cutoff for safety is if over half the liquid escaped during processing so you should be good to go.
I can’t find a pickled cranberry recipe that’s approved.
Share please and then someone can assess.
Yes. Its good i would use it
