Creation of photo library

• Photos library forgotten intermittently in iMovie

  Hey everybody!

  I'm helping a friend with his computer which is having a weird problem where iMovie forget intermittently the computer's default photo library.

  I searched the forums and feel a little Google-Fu to no results. Hoping that someone here has heard of him and can help.

  Hardware specifications:

  iMac 21.5 "(retina 4K, end of 2015)"

  3.3 Intel Core i7, 16GB, Iris Pro graphic 6200

  10.11.5 OSX

  Photos Version: 1.5 (370.42.0)

  Version of iMovie: 10.1.2

  Symptom of failure:

  When you open iMovie library of Photos may not appear in the sidebar called "libraries."

  Friend is then unable to take pictures from Photos to slide directly into the timeline without doing it manually by moving pictures on the desktop, then in iMovie.

  Temporary difficulties (though not ideal):

  Opening and closing iMovie has 50-75% likely to appear at the library.

  Notes:

  1. a friend has a large library of Photos (600 GB and more) of his travels and compiles pictures and videos to family and friends.

  2. due to the huge amount of space needed for ALL of its data/backups (not only the pictures), she was sold and configure a Lacie 5big network RAID (20 to total)

  3. the iMac internal 2 TB HDD software account and installed OSX. Its Home folder is located in the 5Big and OSX heading towards it.

  4. the question is extremely intermittent, opening and closing of the application while the photo library is present can remove next time, iMovie is open.

  Things I've tried:

  -Creation of a new library of Photos (empty) adding like 20 pictures and then defines it as the default library in preferences. (Question persists)

  -Updated all updates of software available.

  -Re-install OSX 10.11 and then upgrade to 10.11.5 again.

  -Checked to make sure that 5Big is not put the discs "to sleep" after a while, removing the connection to OSX. (It is not)

  -Check all the cables and connections to make sure that the drive is connected properly and safely.

  -Machine closed down, started 5Big first, he gave 10-15 seconds to establish and then lit iMac to see if OSX has had enough time to 'find' the iMovie library.

  -Make sure that the Photos (the application) is closed before opening iMovie, tried also with Photos open before you open iMovie. (Issue still present in both scenarios)

  I guess something is in conflict with OSX and RAID 5Big... but I have no idea where to start looking.

  Help, please! Please and thank you!

  Aaron.

  Aaron, your friend already tried to repair the photo library?   Repair is described on this help page: repair your library

  https://help.Apple.com/photos/Mac/1.0/?lang=en#/pht6be18f93

  The external drive file system is compatible with Photos for Mac?  If the format of the disc is not Mac OS extended (journaled) it won't work perfectly.

  And the complete folder on this drive?  How was the link created?  What is the home folder encrypted by safe?

• After sleep, the photo library must be repaired

  I often sleep my iMac (El Capitan 10.11.2) and find in the morning that there is a window telling me that the photo library must be repaired, and I can fix it or quit. I chose the option "fix" several times, but that makes no difference. I talked to Apple support about this and was taken by the standard routine, but that changed nothing. Everyone comes through this?

  Hi rowlandfromromsey,

  Thank you for contributing to the communities of Apple Support.

  If you find that you need to repair your photo library after waking up from his sleep, there are a few steps that I would recommend who can help you find the cause of this behavior.

  First, create a new library and import photos as a trial and see if you get the same message. Assistance to the creation of a new library, see using several libraries in Photos.

  Another good step to try at this point is using the function of disk utility first aid to check your hard drive. See disk utility (El Capitan): check a disk or a volume for problems.

  You answer with the results of these two steps may help provide some following steps, too.

  Best regards.

• My Camera Roll and times got all the order as soon as I turned on iCloud photo library. My pictures are both old and new, please help

  All my photos are out now since I turned on IiCloud library. How can I fix?

• Removed all icloud photo library, 1.9 GB still in use

  I deleted all of my photo, My Photo Stream etc. flows including shared library iCloud.

  I have also ensured that the recently deleted album is empty. I disabled iCloud photo library on each device. It should not be a trace of left.

  However, I always told my library back 1.9 GB of my storage iCloud. There is an option to turn it off completely but it will take 30 days, which is a long wait when I don't know if it will work.

  Any ideas that he could be taking all this space? Or if there is a way to reset all empty without waiting for 30 days?

  I use the latest version of iOS on my iPad and the iPhone, and the El Capitan on my Mac if that helps.

  Have you tried to log in to your iCloud account, then sign in again?

• iCloud library download not any photo library

  Hello

  I decided to start using iCloud photo library, so I checked the option "Préférences"-> "iCloud" Photos (version 2.0). He started to download items very well, but I noticed it is not downloading the entire library of Photos. My photo library contains 7065 photos and 151 videos, but Photos only started to load about 2500 points on iCloud library after activating what is 16.5 GB (see screenshots). When you look at the size of "Library.photoslibrary Photos" is 46.5. Does anyone know a reason for this difference? Thank you

  

  

  It'll take some time according to the signal from your ISP and Wi - Fi.  Make sure that your signal is good.

• Not recognized by Word or Photoshop photo library

  Work on a MacBook and recently installed Sierra 10.12.  Everything worked fine until all applications 3rd party such as Word, Excel, Powerpoint, (office 11 14.6.8), Photoshop Elements 10 has ceased to recognize the new photo library.  iPhoto and photo booth developed but not the photo library itself. The actual program pictures works fine. I also see the library by email and online (as a download on shutterfly). 2 hrs with tech does support last night and 3 people later no resolution.  Reinstalled Sierra. No change. Everything is updated.

  Just weird it was working one day then stopped working the next day.

  Any suggestions besides to annihilate the entire disk?

  How you are trying to access your photos? Directly (which is not possible) or by using the media browser?

  a work around is to export the photos (menu, file == > export) to a folder on the desktop and use there

• Should I Photostream if I use iCloud photo library

  Hi, I use iCloud library on my MBP, two iPhones and iPad and I still active Photostream.

  I'll try to find our knowledge if I need Photostream as well as use iCloud.  I have more than enough storage for the moment in the cloud then from what I can tell Photostream is not something that would fail me if I turned it off.  At the same time, I can't find a definitive answer anywhere!

  Grateful that if ever I decide to stop using the cloud, I can turn Photostream for my last few thousand photos.

  I also try to work if there is anyway that I can reduce the amount of space on my iPhone which currently takes about 13 GB of photo library.

  Any help would be welcome.

  Thank you

  Matt

  If you do not use my Photo Stream, turn off all devices.

  You need my photo only, stream if you also use older devices with iOS 7 or more, which can not support iCloud photo library. But if all your devices are set to synchronize with iCloud photo library, you don't need my photo stream. It might even cause problems.

• Relink 'Library of Photos' to iCloud photo library

  This question relates to a clean install of Mac OS Sierra

  I have my library of Photos in pictures file, and there all my uploaded images. When I format my computer, how can I create a link to this file with iCloud photo library, so I don't have to download anything new?

  I still did not understand the exact procedure for this and want to avoid download it all again as I have in the past. There must be a way to link to the top, since I downloaded them all already.

  You can not

  If you restore a library or repair one that it triggers a total upload to make sure that everything is in harmony, there is no way to avoid that - you just start a new library and let ICPL fill the iCloud - he loses people and all

• How to separate the Raw files of the photo library

  My photo library is over 700 GB. I have a lot of raw files that are 30 MB or more. How can we separate the raw files in a separate file or a separate library?

  Duplicate your photos library in the Finder and then remove all the BULLIES of the first library photos and all photos that are not the RAW files of the second library.

  You can search for RAW photos with a smart album:

  File > new Smart Album

  Then set the rule set to "picture is GROSS."

  Of the other library use the rule 'The Photo is not BELIEVED'.

• I DELETED VIDEOS FROM PHOTO LIBRARY AND THEY REMOVED OFF THE COAST OF IMOVIE!

  So I was about to export a video to my iphone out of storage ram. So I decided to remove the videos from the library until I discovered, it removes off imovie! I didn't know that! Like imovie takes lots of storage. I deleted the videos of recently deleted, so now they are gone!

  Is it possible to restore them?

  And if you're advising me to download something, no malware or viruses please.

  If you have enabled iCloud photo library, that's how he wanted to work. iCPL synchronizes all changes and actions, including deletions, across all your devices and computers.

  The only way for you to restore these files is from a backup, preferably on your computer.

• iCloud photo library and FIRST photos in iOS

  I would like to enable capture of RAW files in iOS 10. I have a 256 GB 7 iPhone +, but at 30 MB per DNG, storage will be used quickly if I don't get the photos on the phone regularly.

  It is true that I am still unclear on iCloud photo library works. I activated on my iPhone, but I think it means it stores the photos on the phone and also downloads in the cloud?

  If I had to come home every day and transfer the DNG on my Mac and remove them from my phone, I assume that they will have is no longer a storage space on my phone, but would take place in iCloud if they were downloaded before I moved out of my phone?

  Looks like I should cut iCloud photo library if I am shooting RAW, since I would like to download very large photos that I don't necessarily want to keep?

  iCloud is a synchronisation/mirroring service and not a traditional cloud solution based.  If you are looking for a more traditional based cloud solution, then consider using an application third, for example Dropbox, Flickr or Google Photos.

• iCloud photo library is not available

  I have an imac with mac sierra.  When I go to system-> Preferences-> icloud and try to choose 'photos', he keeps by unchecking it. no error message. When I opened the photos app and go to Preferences-> iCloud library its selected.

  They both should not be selected?

  Also at the top left there are 'photos' I thought showed pictures.  under the albums, there is a folder "all photos". Celle one of the high 'photos', seems to have stopped to update, as the choice of background under albums, "all photos" has all the latest photos and continues to update.  Anyone know if this is normal or what is wrong?

  I have an imac with mac sierra.  When I go to system-> Preferences-> icloud and try to choose 'photos', he keeps by unchecking it. no error message. When I opened the photos app and go to Preferences-> iCloud library its selected.

  I had which also occur at first. Is photos showing a short message 'check library' before it resets the check mark for iCloud > Photos?

  In this case, fix your photo library.  After I fixed the library, it was possible to activate system preferences-> icloud-> Photos.  See this help page: https://help.apple.com/photos/mac/1.2/?lang=en#/pht6be18f93

  Important: You must back up your library before repair of your library.

  • If the photo is open, choose Photos > Photos of quit smoking.
  • Press Option-command and double-click on the Photos icon in the Applications folder (or click the Photos icon in the Dock). The library of repair window opens.
  • Click on fix to rebuild your library.

  The second problem can also indicate a problem with the library:

  under the albums, there is a folder "all photos". Celle one of the high 'photos', seems to have stopped to update, as the choice of background under albums, "all photos" has all the latest photos and continues to update.  Anyone know if this is normal or what is wrong?

  Photos seems to be missing in the 'Photos' album, but the power be sorted differently from the album picture all.  Select one of the photos in all the Photos that does not appear in the Photos, ctrl-click and use the command 'display in the moment '.  If she does not appear in the Moments in Photos, fix the library.
