• System library on the external hard drive at home, macbook pro travel?

  I migrated my library 250 GB + opening of the photos app and designated as a system library. It is located in a 5 d Drobo (without optimization, i.e. contains all original), which I can't take with me when traveling. I activated the iCloud 3 days ago photo library library half transferred which is pretty good, I guess.

  Then, when I travel I'll take my camera and the Macbook pro along.  I want to change the new photos on the road and not wait until I return home. I want to end up with my new photos in their full versions in the library of Drobo and iCloud.

  1. when I import new photos for my MBP pictures open and create a new library automatically?

  2. If I named this new library as a library system photos will merge with the photos in the cloud?

  3. when I go back and fix my MBP on my Drobo, the new photos will end up in the library of photos of Drobo if I designate as a system library again?

  4. I can then remove the library of 'travel' from my MBP without deleting anything my iCloud and Drobo.

  Also, I'm still on Yosemite. I was already on El Capitan 10.11.1, but upgrading to 10.11.2 was a nightmare, installation stalled repeatedly, I couldn't go back 10.11.1 because it stagnates too and had to return to Yosemite 10.10.5 back up I got the time machine. Photos is 1.0.1. MBP is mid-2014.

  I understand a improvements in El Capitan pictures, but

  5. the foregoing have an effect on my problem 1-4.

  I hope someone can help.

  Many thanks in advance,

  1. when I import new photos for my MBP pictures open and create a new library automatically?

  When you launch Photos and your library is not available because the drive is offline, Photos will ask you which library to use. You can create a new library at this stage or open a new one.

  2. If I named this new library as a library system photos will merge with the photos in the cloud?

  Yes, but the photos will all be first download all photos in iCloud in the library of new, local Photos on your Mac. iCloud library aims to keep all the libraries of identical to the version in iCloud iCloud and update. Don't switch to another library in the library of the system, when your external drive is offline. each switch will result in massive downloads and uploads, for several days.  And download my not fit on your internal drive.

  3. when I go back and fix my MBP on my Drobo, the new photos will end up in the library of photos of Drobo if I designate as a system library again?

  4. I can then remove the library of 'travel' from my MBP without deleting anything my iCloud and Drobo.

  I recommend to use the new library locally and wait until you get home and have access to your external drive.

  Then, use PowerPhotos to merge your new photos in your photo library in the system.  It is a great tool to manage libraries of separate pictures.

  You can download a free trial here: Fat Cat Software

  Or use the web interface of your iCloud photo library.  You can download directly to your iCloud photo library without launching Photos on your Mac.  Go to www.icloud.com, launch the Photos.app on this web page, then download the new photos.  Then they will be downloaded into your library of Phtoos on Drobo when you connect your player and open your system from Photo library again.

• Using an external hard drive with El Capitan

  I connected a Toshiba external hard drive in a macbook pro with OS X El Capitan 10.11.6 to back up some files.

  First, he asked if I wanted to use it for time machine. I selected "decide later".

  Then, I realized that I could not create a new folder on the hard drive, or I could stick anything on it (to save).

  I could copy the HD stuff and paste on my desktop only, but not what I need...

  What is a typical problem? Is it because I chose to decide later? Has anyone encountered this before?

  (p.s. Please also indicate if the question category, I chose should be changed)

  This means generally that the volume is formatted to NTFS, at which case it must be reformatted or software such as Paragon NTFS installed on the Mac. To check, select the volume in the Finder, choose information, look at the format.

  In case this happens to a FAT32, exFAT or volume Mac OS extended, either the volume's directory structure is damaged, it is locked in the material or the player has felt that it is about to fail.
