• Download Photos library to iCloud

  After converting my iPhoto photo library, the size of the photo library in the finder is 135 GB and the amount of pictures is a testament to the library is 26 673 when the "All Photos" album is selected. The quantities are close to those originally iPhoto library.

  I then started to load the new photo library on iCloud where, during the download process, the dialog box indicates that it is 'uploading 9306 points (xx.xx GB GB 104,46),"where xx.xx is the current amount downloaded so far.

  The difference in quantity and size of the photo is disturbing. Y at - it a reasonabe explanation?

  From what I saw other people post, the number changes often. See types of files that you can use in the linked article. Which may explain part of the difference.

• Download Photo library iCloud to new drive

  Hello.

  Problems at several levels with my Mac and will need probably need to download icloud library my pictures and my videos on a properly installed new hard drive.

  Once connected and downloading is done, how much time should I keep the Library open and intact while the Mac writes what it takes? I have a little less 40 GB in size with a little less than 13,000 positions.

  Thanks for your help.

  You can use it while it is downloading and it downloads in the background so it doesn't have to be open - it must be powered, awake and have internet available to download so keep awake - 13 000 will take some time, but no one can predict exactly how long--two many uncontrollable varriables

  If you quit Photos while the process is not ready, you'll get a message

• Two "photo library" after the update to El Capitan

  Hello

  I found two "photo library" file in ~ / images /, one with the old icon names "iPhoto Library", the other with a new icon of Capitan, called "photo library".

  Created and last updated date match each other.

  I guess that El Capitan duplicate my library during installation. I'm a little surprise to bite, it has not removed the old...

  These files are huge: is it safe to delete the old one?

  Thank you

  These files are huge: is it safe to delete the old one?

  Libraries to think big, but they share the storage for images and use less than the total size of the disk storage, see this support document:

  Photos saves disk space to share images with your iPhoto or Aperture - Apple Support libraries

  and also: Six colors: the (hard) link between iPhoto and photo

  If you delete the old iPhoto library, you won't win a lot of rear storage. It is save to remove the iPhoto library, but I wanted to wait burn bridges.  Wait, are you sure that the migration went well and no pictures are missing.

  In addition, you may need to complete your projects in iPhoto, the projects do not migrate. How many Photos handles content and metadata for iPhoto and Aperture - Apple Support

  And if you notice, that you do not like the pictures and want to return to iPhoto, you'll need your old library.

• Photos added in the download on my PC "iCloud Photos" folder do not appear in iCloud. iCloud download photo library box unticked by itself after a minute.

  Photos added in the download on my PC "iCloud Photos" folder do not appear in iCloud. In addition, iCloud library box get unchecked by itself after a minute. I had already added a subdirectory with images in the "Uploads" directory that uses 54 MB and I don't see them going to the cloud.

  The problem disappeared after restarting my PC. Thanks to the support of Apple make this stage of growth of fundamental problems.

• Why my EXIF data is not updated in my photo library?

  I'm putting an existing library about 15 k pictures and after import in the Photos app, I can see that the EXIF data for many of these images are incorrect.

  I've updated the EXIF data using a third party application called 'Pull the shifter' and the images but my photo library has been updated, and pictures taken in 2007 are displayed as having been taken in 2005.

  If I update the EXIF through the Photos, it works immediately so I'm guessing that there is a disparity between the library of Photos and real pictures?

  How can I update the library after external changes?

  You can not

  What are you doing exactly?

  You cannot make changes to the contents of the iPhoto library using pull the shifter or any other program except Photo - there is no user repairable in the photo library - once the pictures are imported in the Photos, you can only use Photos of them to change in any way - if the pictures cannot make the changes that you want to then you will need to make the changes before importing the phtos

  You can check the HoudahGeo - it could work within the iPhoto library - last I looked the pictures do not have the API they ned to do the same with the Photos, but it is possible as things hae advanced since I looked

• ICloud photo library is not download all of the images on my Mac or iPhone

  

  I created iCloud library when it was made public, and it has worked very well, apart from the fact that there are about 100 images (out of my 5 k library) who download any Photos on my MacBook Pro and my iPhone 6. have a problem where, for some reason, quite a number of pictures in my iCloud photo library appear under vacuum with a symbol of little cloud instead of the image. I assumed it was always download files in the background, however, this has been the case for weeks and there is no activity indicated. I restarted my iPhone, my iPad and my Mac and did all sorts of other troubleshooting ideas, but they seem to refuse to download. Help! I have all the latest updates installed.

  They are peppered throughout my library and do not seem to have anything in common. I assumed it was always download files in the background, however, this has been the case for weeks and there is no activity indicated. I restarted my iPhone, my iPad and my Mac and did all sorts of other troubleshooting ideas, but they seem to refuse to download. When I click on one to see it bigger, it fails with an error, but shows just an empty pane.

  You have "Optimize Storage" activated on your iPhone or Mac?

  Have you checked, it makes the photos have been uploaded to iCloud?  Open the Photos.app to the iCloud web interface www.cloud.com and check if the pictures in question have the same problem on iCloud.

  Added: I see the white rectangle with the cloud icon, every time I edit a photo. The icon turns white, until the modified version has been downloaded to iCloud and synchronized at the back.  If you are that many of these clouds icons seeng a great prt library is not yet synchronized.

  Will there be a progress bar in the iCloud preferences on your Mac?

• iCloud Photo Library Download stuck after changing icloud account

  This is FYI if someone of another encounter the same problem, I've had.

  My daughter Mac and iphone used a common icloud account that has been set up for the family some time ago.   She had a lot of photos stored in icloud, through Photos.  We decided to create account it with his own icloud and itunes recently.

  The first question icloud was in its disconnection from the old account.  The message that you will lose pictures and videos that are not fully downloaded to the Mac we fear for a few days because there is no easy way that we could find to determine in advance what photos and videos were not fully downloaded.  So, we tried for these days download all photos and videos but did not seem to make any progress.  After a few days, we have bet that we could continue with disconnection and risk losing the photos and videos they would be still in icloud under the old account.  Then we saw on the screen depending on who told us that we will lose only 3 photos and 1 video - too bad that the screen has not come earlier.  So we disconnected.

  The second question icloud came after connected to the new icloud account and tried to get his Mac photos to sync up to pictures of icloud.  We spent 2 or 3 days waiting for them to update and 2 separate calls with Apple support but no resolution.  There were two additional things, I noticed: 1) the iCloud library update bar (under preferences/Photos/account) remained empty (i.e., no green progress bar) for 2 or 3 days indicating no progress has been made and 2) next to the heading 'ICloud photo library' was the message in red that I had 29 (then 28 then 27) days to download my photos to icloud prior to their removal.  It made me suspicious that it was a reference to the photos under the old account and I was connected to the new account.  So, today, I bet and disconnected the new icloud account and once again had the same 3 photos and 1 video message would be deleted, that I accepted.  Then I signed in to the new account icloud, got informed that I had too little space on the new account to all the pictures and videos to download, I opted for more space (paying), end connection, then pictures/properties/account and viola, iCloud library update bar now give me 1) a number of pictures to download and green 2) in the progress bar.

  So, to summarize:

  1. If you're worried about losing your photos (or other files) If you disconnect your icloud account, note 1) you should be able to recover if you reconnect to the account and 2) that there is a window that will tell you how much you will lose (even if have never heard you those who), and
  2. If the synchronization ends up with no apparent progress made (especially no count of how many must be synchronized or no visible 'green' progress) then a possible solution is to disconnect, and then reconnect to your icloud account.

  Don't forget to let Apple know it so that they can improve their service to the future- http://www.apple.com/feedback/

• Download the video in MPG format to iCloud photo library

  Is it possible to download a video file, MPG to a Mac to iCloud photo library?

  I stopped using iCloud photo library on the Mac due to low disk space, however I always use iCloud photo library on other devices and would like to have the video available here. I tried to use the web interface to iCloud by using Safari, but I get a message that the format is not supported

  I guess I could convert the file in another format, however, I do not want 3rd party applications on my Mac, and I worry about compromising video quality. Is the other way to do this? Could using Photos (1.5) on the Mac and the activation of my photo stream get the video to appear in the photo library of iCloud?

  As we told you MPG is not a format alternative for ICPL

• My images full resolution stay in my photo library iCloud after downloading the originals on my Mac?

  Good afternoon

  I am currently downloading my entire photo library on my Mac from my iCloud Photo Library - I want to save the originals on a hard drive external.

  I've always had the value "optimize storage space", will be the full resolution original images stay in the cloud after the originals have downloaded on my Mac?

  Most of them is shot in RAW format and I still want their cloud to use Lightroom without having to import them all into LR first.

  Thank you, Aimee

  Yes, iCloud library still retains full resolution photos, unless you delete them

• El Capitan 10.11.2 updated and inaccessible photo library

  I've seen questions similar to this one, but none quite match. Photos worked El Capitan. But after the update to El Capitan 10.11.2, I can't pictures to locate the library system, although it is still visible in my pictures folder. (I have several bookstores, how I manage with PowerPhotos). I use an iMac late 2009.

  When I opened the Photos, I get this message:

  

  Sometimes this message at the same time:

  

  I can't choose ', open ' because I can't do this active window or get the buttons to act; I have to select "Exit" in the window "unexpected error".

  I tried to press the Option key when opening the pictures; same result.

  Also, I've used my photo library system for my desktop and screen saver. After update, the office always displays photos of the library. In the system, under the screen saver preferences, the 'Source' menu does not include Photos. I tried to select "Choose a folder", then selecting different libraries of Photos, but it does not work. In desktop preferences, there is a similar lack of power to choose to use a library of Photos, but he continued to use the one I had chosen before the update.

  As I said, I still see libraries in [user name] / photos. This includes the system library I was using before the update (and which is apparently still used for office). They all have a normal appearance in Finder, including update, size, showing as a number of GB, etc.. In PowerPhotos, however, the library system shows as having zero points. Other libraries appear as normal in PowerPhotos, but PowerPhotos does not seem to have a function allowing you to switch which deals with pictures of libraries such as the library system. Trying to open a library other that the library system in Photos, either by PowerPhotos or from the Finder, generates the same error messages above. (The same with trying to open the library system from the Finder).

  I don't know what version of El Capitan I was running before the upgrade. I always installed updates to OS x I use as soon as the alert informs you that one was available.

  Start in Safe Mode, Mac OS x: Safe Mode bootand try from there.  If you succeed, reboot normally and try 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.

• Is there a way to download photos from my iPhone to my photo library iCloud without having my iCloud all that downloaded on my iPhone photo library?

  I just got a new iPhone 7. I was able to import all of my photos and videos of my previous iPhone 6 on my photo library to iCloud. I would like to import the photos that I take on my current iPhone to my previous library without going through my library iCloud just downloaded on my current iPhone. I would just like to see all on my Mac. Is it possible that it is possible? Thank you.

  I'm not entirely sure or understand what you're asking.  If you import pictures from your device, it is stored in iCloud photo library.

  If you're wondering if it is possible to store photos only in iCloud, and not the on your device, the answer would be no, because iCloud is not traditional storage cloud based, i.e. it is a sync/mirroring system, allowing you to synchronize all your photos on all of your devices and make them available instantly , or almost immediately in some cases.
