Confused.  Try to understand the Photo app Syncing iCloud

• Help needed on the export of the Photo App

  I'm a photo hobbyest with thousands of photos stored in my Mac using the Photos app. I already saved them on Time Machine and iCloud. However, I try to upload some on an external hard drive but can't.  The Photo app continues to CHANGE the resolution of my images when I export them.  Here is what happens...

  • I have uploaded a JPEG of 5 MB in the Photo app earlier this year.
  • Now, I'm ready to take a copy of this picture on my external hard drive.
  • If I just move the original photo to the Photo app on my counter top, the resolution GOES from 5MB to 2.1 MB.
  • If I export 'The Original unmodified' I lose all the changes that I made in the Photo app.
  • If I export the 'High' quality jpeg image, it DROPS my resolution of 2.1 MB.
  • If I export the photo to the "Maximum" quality jpeg, it INCREASES my resolution to 14.3 MB!
  • I found NO WAY to download my original photo size!

  Question... How to export or copy an image from within the app of the Photo on an external hard drive with the resolution of the EXACT SAME as it is?

  Thank you!

  You first need to understand the resolution - the file size is not resolution - the resolution concerns the dimensions in pixels of the image - file to a JPEG file size is determined by the compression you choose - compression of the image does not change the dimensions in pixels of all - compression removes the donnΘes form the pictures and all JPEG in theory is inferior finial an uncompressed image as TIFF - but for practically all the uses, it does not matter

  When you export a modified version of the photo you create a new file that contains the image and the size of the files is determined by the selections you make and has no resolution at all to the original file

  Photos has limited control over file size - ir you want a file size, then export a copy of very high quality (maximum or even a TIFF uncompressed) and use another program that gives you more control to compress in the JPEG compression you want

  But at the end of the day the size of the file is really no different and it is very likely that the big JPEG will give you the same results as an uncompressed TIFF

• How to add photos from the photos app to lightroom?

  New to photoshop or lightroom/bridge. I'm already massively confused. What I really do is process my photos and know where they are going once I press save. Frankly, I had a lot of problems who feel extremely unnecessary. For example, I download pictures from my memory card, put them in a photo album, delete the ones I don't want and then try to edit in photoshop. First of all, all the photos I already deleted are always selectable in the album, then it sucks. Then after that I edited the picture and save it, it saves it to a file of "photoshop". I don't know what it is, but whatever it is I don't know where he's going. In the same sense as this issue, several times when I have everything just to edit a photo in the photos app, and then try to download (tell Facebook or laboratory) the photo does not keep changes. I am a huge mac hater right now b/c of this.

  Using Lightroom can be confusing with how he save refers to images that have been deleted. They must be removed from the LR catalog. If you use LR, all your deleting and moving files around must be made here or it turns into a big mess. I would like to move your post on LR forum for better responses.

• The people in the Photos app clock?

  The people in the Photos app supposed to sync between Mac OS and iOS? Is this an element broken or not supported? Someone please tell me that Apple does not expect me to organize people over and over again on all my devices? That would be quite ridiculous. I've never used the faces feature in previous versions for this reason.

  Unfortunately not.

  Using Photos has just been updated for Sierra, and we finally have it in writing:

  https://help.Apple.com/photos/Mac/1.2/?lang=en#/phtf5e48489c

  Note: Persons identified in the album people are not synchronized between devices.

  And as far as I know, it really does not synchronize between my libraries of Photos on the MacBook Pro and my iMac.

  It's different in the 10 user guide iOS for the iPhone and iPad:

  http://help.Apple.com/iPhone/10/#/iph9c7ee918c

  People are synchronized between devices where you are connected with the same Apple ID.

  I can't test on iOS devices, because only my iPhone can be updated to iOS 10, not the iPad and iPod touch, but the iPhone will not sync with my Mac people.

• Update iOS10 to post the photo app shows for 2 GB with no photos

  After updating to iOS 10

  the photo app is 2 GB. There is no photos or recorded videos, but that's still 2 GB

  Hi 38sanjudas,

  I understand that you see 2 GB of space used by your Photos app, despite not having anything that is stored. I know it's important to get the most out of your storage space, so I'm happy to help you.

  It is important to note that when you delete a photo on your iPhone, it is not permanently deleted and will go to the album recently removed in case it needs to be recovered. If it is not emptied, he can fill and take a storage capacity as well. You can learn more about this in our article here:

  Delete photos on your iPhone, iPad and iPod touch - Apple Support
  

  Permanently delete photos

  If you want to permanently delete your pictures or your videos within 30 days, you can remove them from the album recently deleted. When you delete a photo in this album, you can't get it back.

  1. Open the Photos app and go to the Albums tab.
  2. Open the recently deleted album and press Select.
  3. Click on each photo or video that you want to permanently delete.
  4. Press DELETE.

  Thank you for using communities Support from Apple. See you soon!

• Sharing of photo on El Capitan Photos.app messages blocking the Photos app

  Hello

  I notice that when I try to share a photo of the Photos app using some extensions in the share menu, the app will hang finally.  Let's say I want to share a photo of Messages or Notes.  I have a photo, box/arrow icon, select "Messages".  Then I get a small window with the picture in it and may or may not be able to select a recipient before the whole process hangs.

  I CAN'T go to the menu Photos.app and do a Quit.  Otherwise the duration of the session stops responding.  Sharing via the email option works well.  Note fails.

  It must be rare, as I have searched and not found anything.

  iCloud library is enabled, and the storage is not optimized.

  Thanks in advance for advice.

  After having this problem for weeks, I rebooted in safe mode to try sharing the Photos app.  It has worked well.  After the reboot in normal mode, including a power off when the normal start hanging around 15% for one hour, the system starts finally normally in "normal mode".  Now sharing photos works again.

  I don't know what changed, but something positive happened.

• Can't see the photos from the Photos App in iMovie

  Hello

  I came home from vacation and wanted to do quick video for my friends.
  Open iMovie, clicked on the photo library and was expecting to see my recent photos (at least). However, there were a few random photos year and months old, some of them I have deleted enough of course, don't know how they ended up there.

  I tried to reconnect photos iCloud and resynchronize, however anything.

  Any ideas what to do? Of course broke him "it works"

  Thanks in advance

  Looks like your problem is with Photos not iMovie. You can see your photos in the photos app? Using iCloud photo library? If yes then maybe you need to wait for iCloud Sync photos to your Mac.

• I get the "Year Error Occurred" message when you try to start the YouTube app on my new Bravia

  Hello

  My KDL50W800C has an internet connection but when I try to start the YouTube app, I get the message 'year Error Occurred. " Not to be confused with a network error has occurred. It says no network.

  Help is greatly appreciated.

  Can't tell from your model number, but if it is an Android TV, try to erase the data on the app:

  Home > settings > Apps > system apps. Search YouTube from the list, select it, select erase data and confirm.

  Restart (just to clear any other issue) - now power press Remote button and try again the YouTube app.

• Can someone help me, I am trying to insert a photo into Microsoft PowerPoint, and I can't seam to get pictures in the photo App albums

  How can I insert pictures in an album in the photos app in a PowerPoint presentation, I had no problem with iPhoto, but cannot get them to insert without them emailing myself first and then a copy of the e-mail.

  What version of PowerPoint are you using?  2016 desktop applications are fully compatible with Photos and show your library of Photos in the photo browser, but the older Office 2011 cannot display the photo library.  If you have an older version and want to use the photo browser, update.

  Instead of broadcast, you can simply select photos in photo and use "file > export" to save your photo album in a folder on your desktop. Then drag the photos in this folder to PowerPoint.

  If you are already running Office 2016 but still don't see photos in the photo browser, check, if your current photo library has been activated in the library of the system.   The option ' Photos > Preferences > general > use as a system library "should be greyed out. And if your photo library is a library iCloud, enlarge the photos in pictures, to force a download from iCloud, until you try to use the photo in other applications.

• How to choose a different location to import pictures other than the Photo app?

  I'm new to Mac and I can not understand how to download pictures from my camera for Lightroom and Photoshop.  The computer automatically downloads to the Photos app, and then I can't access it in other photography programs.

  Nothing is downloaded automatically anywhere - you control who

  If you do not want to use the Photos so you can just leave Photos when he launched (and if it is open you can uncheck the box to open the Photos when the unit is plugged) and do what you want - you can use the finder to upload photos, Image Capture (in your applications folder) or any other software that you choose

  For pictures you have already chosen to import the photos simply select and export (File menu ==> export) in a folder on the desktop and use in your software desired from here

• Plug my 6s continues to open the Photos app even after controlling for him?

  With the help of an iPhone 6 9.2 running. As a Mac Pro (mid-2012) running 10.11.2. When I plug my phone in, the Photos app opens wanting import me all my photos. I'm not interested by this on this machine, since it is a work computer, so I'm going to Capture Image and tell the computer not to open any application, when I plug in my phone. However, it seems that if I go a day or two without connecting to the work, it immediately at the opening of the Photos app is once again going even if I put it above to not open any application when it is plugged.

  Any thoughts on why this keeps happening? Does not seem serious whether or not I restarted my computer, it will do the same thing anyway.

  Hello bdouglas,.

  Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

  I understand that you don't want pictures to launch whenever you have your iPhone connected to your work computer.  It's quite understandable, so to get this option changed, please follow the steps below.

  1. Plug in your iPhone
  2. Select your iPhone from the column on the left in Photos
  3. Deselect the checkbox next to 'Open pictures for this device'
  4. Photos of quit smoking

  After you follow these steps, Photos should more be opened whenever you connect the iPhone to your work computer.

  Take care.

• How can I save the images in the Photos app on my external hard drive?

• How to reinstall the Photos app. ?

  He is a previous question I posted about getting the "update not available with this user Id" when you try to install an update of Photos under OS X 10.11.2. Someone sent a response recommending photo backup (done) and then uninstall and reinstallation of the Photos. But from what I can tell pictures is part of the operating system, does that mean reinstall the whole OS? I had just installed El Capitan, which did not remove the problem and without doubt this is a complete update of the OS. The problem is that the pictures show that version 1.3 and it cannot install the latest version. ID Apple is correct because he has worked for six other App updates. Thank you.

  I have no idea of what you read, but you do not delete the Photos app, because it is part of the ad operating system shouldn't be messed with

  to install the Photo, you must install the operating system (once again because it is part of the operating system) - you can do this by using the capabilities of recovery of the BONES of Captain of El - OS X: on OS X Recovery - Apple Support
