• How to move photos all photos and remove iPhoto and Aperture libraries?

  How can I move all the my iPhoto and Aperture photos to Photos and remove iPhoto and Aperture libraries?  Photos automatically links to the old library on migration to save space with two libraries.

  As a related issue, there don't seem to be anyway to determine if a picture is stored when viewing Photos.  Incredibly frustrating when there are duplicates because how do you know who I should delete?

  No - nothing is connected - once you migrate a library it is independent and did no link to the original library - you can remove it if yo want

  However the removal of the original library will save the little space and is not repeated because it uses hard links to the original and previews so the new library uses little extra space

  As duplicates - what difference does make? They are duplicates so delete an and smells like another - even - you do not have any what visibility of the underlying files (and do not need to do this) in pictures

  Pictures is a new program and this is a learning curve - and is not a professional software like Aperture, so it is not expected at all what Aperture is - is better than iPhoto and get closer to the opening, but I doubt it will ever open

• Often lose ALL copy and paste function in all applications

  Often, I lose all copy/cut & paste functions in all applications (not just Office programs). None of the buttons are gray; all functions are available, and I get no error message...  The function stops working when all methods: menus in right-click of the mouse, help on keyboard shortcuts screen and buttons.

  Only remedy was a full reboot, which works most of the time, but is a huge disadvantage because of the frequency with which this happens (4 to 6 times a week, sometimes several times a day).

  You can always just left click and drag to highlight and right-click the highlighted area and select copy from the menu drop-down and then go to the page where you want to paste in the box on left click and right click the GET the drop down and select Paste in it.

• With the help of the button reduce screen loses all tabs and normal settings.

  Using Firefox on Windows 7 64 b 32.0.3

  If I click on the button cut (top-right) when I click on the Firefox button in the taskbar of all tabs that were there disappear and cannot be brought back. Also, I have 2 sites, I set to start when Firefox is open: it is my homepage (using protopage) and the other is my e-mail address for Google mail. Two tabs are defined as locked and protected and also the Google tab is set to "pin". All these parameters have disappeared and Google mail is still missing after starting Firefox again. This does not happen if Firefox is closed and started again as everything that was on the browser tabs is the as if it was when he was arrested. It is a fairly recent passing (last month) I don't remember having this problem before. All this is done using the Firefox button in the taskbar.

  No idea why Firefox does to reduce and not to close down?

  When you stop doing that you clear all data when you exit selected in the Firefox menu > Options > privacy > to the title of the story?

  Do they keep tabs of latest start time upward or your homepage?

  If you leave the session is removed and will display the home page, but if you just leave, Firefox displays the previous session? (just to clarify)

• Someone help me - Vista system restore & all photos and docs disappeared!

  Started my laptop this morning and was hit with malware/spyware. Could not delete of course I did a restore of the system since last Thursday. Now, I have no photos or documents. I open Windows Media, clicked on one of the dates and literally watched my photos fade. Someone help me please! 'Restoration', said the files, photos, etc. would not be affected.

  Just an idea that might be worth a try...

  Is it possible that your files are still there but have
  become hidden?

  Reach... Control Panel / folder Options / View tab.
  ... To check "Show the hidden files and folders" / apply / OK.

  If the photo thumbs reappear... they can turn washed
  outside. To clear this up... right click a thumbnail or a
  selected (highlighted) group or folder and the
  menu... Choose... Properties, uncheck the box.
  'Hidden' / apply / OK.

• How backup complete photos and catalog on external hard drive?

  I want to backup my entire LR library on an external drive for security. I want the backup to include photos as well as all the metadata of. I can't do it, and I can't find a similar question and answer on the forum. I am able to 'Export' pictures on my external hard drive, but the metadata file that gets exported is unreadable.

  Please advise me how to do this simple and necessary procedure. Thanks in advance.

  Two steps to be completed-

  1. When you close the Lightroom program you should let make a backup of the CATALOG . OFTEN!

  This is defined in the catalog preferences [Ctrl + Alt +] [Ctrl/Cmd + Alt + comma]

  

  The catalog stores everything you do in the Lightroom program! including metadata.

  AND save backups of the catalog to another physical disk (NOT in the same folder as the Lightroom program!)

  2. your original images must be 'Backed-up' or copied to a second location on a different physical drive your chosen method (and not by Lightroom)

  Mac users can use {Time Machine}, PC users can use {SyncBack, Free File Sync, etc.)

  * It is usually not necessary to 'Export' all images unless you have a specific purpose - for example to post on Facebook, Pinterest, web page, printer, etc..

  There is no object in the export of images from archive on your computer, if Lightroom has a catalogue of work!

  

• I copied my photos and catalogs on an external drive, without changing the any of the hierarchy of files.  I would now use the catalogue on this disc, but found only catalog advanced again to the original location of the pictures on a different disk. I ca

  I tried to do it in the list of folders on the left side, but records show only if his pictures are not missing. IE I already found its missing photos the laborious way.

• Hello! If I icloud library disabled, will be always saved pictures? I know that your backup stores the photo library of all devices and because I'm not all devices to be synchronized I think I'm safe and won't lose my pictures/videos. Right?

  Hello! If I icloud library disabled, will be always saved pictures? I know that your backup stores the photo library of all devices and because I'm not all devices to be synchronized I think I'm safe and won't lose my pictures/videos. Can someone please clarify?

  If you want your photos backed up, you must import them into the photos on the computer application that synchronize you with. iCloud photo library is a repository for all the photos for a given iCloud ID. However, it is not required for the care of your photos. I do not use iCloud photo library - import my photos into the library of Photos on my Mac.

  A backup of your device iCloud will save your current film, but if you remove anything from this film, then it will not be available for retrieval at a later date, because backups replace the previous backup version. A backup is so not an archive safe for your photos or videos.

  Photo stream keeps the last 30 days or 1000 photos taken with your camera if you have Photo Stream on, but once again, it's a temporary storage that gets crushed. Photo stream is intended to provide a method of sharing photos between the signed devices on the same iCloud account, but is not intended as an archive.

  Import your pictures and videos on a computer means that all photos and videos are kept in a library on your computer and will be accessible. It is the only safe way to archive your photos:

• What is the difference between 'Photos' and 'All of them'?

  I migrated to iPhoto to picture several months ago.  I also stored pictures in iCloud.  I have about 8 000 photos.

  On the Photo, there is a file in the upper left corner labeled "pictures".  Under the Albums, there is an another Doggie labelede "All Photos".   A lot of photos in "All Photos" and not in "Photos".   I also have a lot of iPhoto events listed.  A lot of photos in the folder "Pictures" are not in the folder "pictures".   What can someone tell me the difference between these two cases?  They are obviously different.

  'Photos' brings together the photos and displays at the top of each group a place and date (month and day only, no year).    "All Photos" has a beginning and end date day, month, year.  But nothing else that a continuous string of pictures without separation, titles or dates.  The start date is not correct.

  I find pictures more confusing and difficult to know how to navigate around.  I guess the 'Pictures' folder is the pictures on iCloud?  (Is there a download button on the lower left corner of each photo).

  they are not records - Photos is your library and is sorted by the date photo number - it can show the years or collections or moments

  All Photos is a special photo album and is sorted by the date, the photos are added to Photos

  Unless you have a corrupt library all in all Photos is also in pictures and numbers are the same

  If you use iCLoud library then your library is synchronized via iCLoud to all devices so seeing pictures is the same as the iCLoud.com view and like on every IOS device or another Mac using ICPL under the same Apple ID

• AppleTV is sharing all of my iPhone photos and not my album shared?

  My model A1625 AppleTV running 9.2.1 and I am logged into my iCloud account and you want to simply display the photos uploaded to an album shared with iCloud photo library, which is turned on. This shared album works really because I'm interested in it through the Photos app on my iPhone and also to access the shared album on an old AppleTV running an older operating system (not even sure what version). I have turned off sharing photos iCloud and home sharing is turned off.

  When I go into the Photos on the AppleTV (A1625) application it has options at the top, for Photos and Albums. There is no option for shared albums, and when I select all Photos or Album option at the top, it seems to be sharing EVERYTHING from my iPhone (all photos and videos).

  1. why he shows all the pictures and videos from my iPhone here? I don't have icloud, photo sharing is turned off and I do not think I PhotoStream on.

  2. why can I not access the shared album I'm looking for?

  I've disabled the AppleTV and off to iCloud, photo sharing and turned it back, and it still does not work. Y at - it another option somewhere that I need?

  Thank you!

  It is hard to tell from your description, that you have shot and where the parameters.

  You need iCloud photo sharing turned on on the Apple TV.

  If the shared album is new you need to disconnect to iCloud on Apple TV and sign my insert the again.

• lose the photos! Help!

  Please help me.

  I have a little understood the news PHOTOS, yet favorite--iPhoto or has been used at least for her.

  What is frustrating is that the program will permanently delete photos/pictures when Im removing the flow of an album or photo!  A window always warns me that the photos will be removed from my photo stream, but it permanently deletes my all PHOTOS.   I used to be organized and now everything is a mess, because I'm afraid of what will remove next.

  The water drop and the reason why I am finally looking for help today, is that I had pictures double in two albums completely unrelated to each other.  I deleted the photos in an album.  I was warned that they would be removed from my PHOTO Gallery, and I clicked OK.  The pictures are now missing the ALL PHOTOS and albums.

  I haven't used Photostream since it first came out, so this may be far from what you are experiencing, but I think that you can miss one or two steps.

  Here's what I mean: Photos in your photo gallery will display in the Albums and pictures, but they are not physically stored on your computer/phone. So when you delete the workflow, it removes all devices. If you can import or make a copy of the photo and put it in your photo library, it will always be there if you remove the image of the flow. Even if you organize pictures into albums and see the photo in several albums, it is not "physically" in these albums. Let's say you have 3 albums with the same image, you don't have 3 copies of the said image. They are all taken from the photo gallery. So by removing the image stream, it is removed from all devices/albums that derive from the stream.

  They are removing all because the only version of the image is in the photo gallery. If you save a copy in the library of Photos, you can delete the workflow and it will remain on your computer.

  Good luck and I hope that help/made sense

  EDIT: Have a look at this: copies of archives or to your iCloud - Apple Support data

• Photos app: all photo album has not all photos

  Recently, I have synced my ipad, phone and computing in the cloud.  "All Photos" album includes not pictures visible at the opening to the top of the icon 'photos' at the top of the page. You're like this on all the devices.

  Can you tell me how to move the missing files to the "All Photos" album?

  First off you should move to El Captain since it includes new features and bug fixes

  as for the pictures - it's all photos and you can add or remove things - you don't give out any details at all but best guess is that it you are missing photos because you are looking in the wrong place - all the Photos is sorted by date imported photos
