  • When storing photos on iCloud to use space on the iPhone too?

    I have an iPhone 6 Plus.  If I store photos in iCloud there also use space on my iPhone? The reason why I ask is because I have a friend who has a Samsung phone and it has several thousand pictures on this topic, but it can install an SD card inside the phone and is where his photos. It uses no space on his phone.  I wonder if I can do the same thing using iCloud?

    iCloud is a synchronization system, not an external 'hard drive '. If you remove them on your device, they will remove icloud. To increase the available space, go settings/iCloud/Photos and select optimize iPhone/iPad storage. That will reduce the space required by 90% when it is fully effective. There is no SD card option.

  • How to create the new library of Photos to iCloud without it merging with the former?

    I started my iCPL in January 2015. It is now 104 Gb/8000 photos. In a year I need to upgrade my plan of storage iCloud.

    So I think I would make the existing one a regular photo library, and start a new photo library iCloud.

    If I start a new library now and make the iCPL, merge it with the existing iCPL. I want to replace the existing in iCloud.

    I could do (I think): -.

    1. make the existing a non-iCPL and rename it.

    2. create a new lib Photos and make the library system iCloud.

    3. the new library (empty) will download and merge with the former in iCloud, so it contains now 8000 photos of the original lib.

    4. delete all the 8000 photos in the new.

    5. start put new photos in the photo library now empty iCloud.

    Is there a better way? I do it too difficult?

    I can see what I've described above taking a long time to settle on all devices, even if I can avoid 30 day waiting by removing the deleted record recently.

    Thank you

    You use "Optimize Mac Storage" on your Mac? Then, you will need to make sure that all the photos to download to your Mac before you copy your current library corresponding to your backup disk and start deleting iCloud.  Is there enough free storage on your Mac to do this?

    I would also like to than my thin iCloud library. My iCloud library has only my favorite photos of many years, I want on all my devices as well as the most recent photos that I'm still trying. Because the iCloud library must be the library system, only in iCloud library photos are available in the media for other applications browser, so I keep all the photos here that I can use in other applications.

    What I do to save bandwidth and download time is to have two libraries:

    1. A large library where I keep all the photos I want to keep - it's my photo archives. This library is on an external drive that is supported by Time Machine and is currently still an Aperture library.
    2. A smaller library iCloud in my pictures folder.

    I import new photos first to the iCloud library, remove all the bad moves that do not need archiving, then I export the originals at the library of the archives.

    And then I start editing the photos in the library to iCloud and learn by removing and keeping only the best photos.

  • How to set text and photo cell sizes and their positions in ledger?

    I'm migrating from Aperture to Lightroom for creating book.  In Aperture, I can add, size and position the text and photo boxes to go.  How does this in Lightroom?

    "at will" is not possible in the book LR module.

    There are many models of pages (~ 180) that you can choose from.

    The photo 'Cells' on the page templates can be resized, but only smaller, by changing the cell "Padding".

    For "at will" design of page (for example, collage, borders fantasies, etc.) you will need create the page images in Photoshop or the LR print module and use as images 'full page' in the book.

  • How can I in cs6 proof a matter of profile photo lab? and where is minijonction?

    Hello

    I play with cs6

    I have a question about printing in a photographic laboratory

    I have a lot of profiles various papers, installed in my operating system (windows7 and my laptop xp) folder

    to what will look like my photos is just the proof

    View-> set up-> custom-> silumate device-> select the Lab profile

    now view-> proof colors

    a reason?

    My I ask a question about minijonction?

    I installed cs6

    I have cs5 and cs6 on my w7, but under minijonction file is gray-> what is the problem?

    to be honest, I never liked minijonction, but cannot understand why is not available

    Thank you

    Some comments from the forum beta CS6 and min-bridge.

    Colse PS and bridge.  Start Bridge then PS.  Mini-Bridge should now work.

    2nd comment my solution is to complete the process of the service standard, Bridge Manager and cs6 in the Task Manager, start the PS and the mini-Bridge fills my images automatically or when I do not support on the deck of the launch, it will load properly. If I leave these services (telephone standard never closed on my system unless I have kill) the mini Bridge does not work

    Hope this helps, I also never use mini-Bridge, guess ever in the habit.

  • How can I select photos to iCloud applications when this option has been disabled?

    I'm puzzled. I tried to add a photo in the Mail, but the picture does not appear.  I was puzzled that only about 3,000 of my 48000 pictures were in the media browser and decided to investigate and even rebuilt my entire library without change in sight.

    It turns out that Apple did not implement you are not presented with neither you can select photos, who do not have the version on your computer, even if they are in your library of photos to iCloud and even if all the thumbnails are present, including all the metadata for the research. I would like to add a few swear words here, but refrain. See this: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204669

    This feature exists and works perfectly in IOS, btw.

    I used earlier iMedia browser Karelia.com, but that is no longer available. Mail has a fairly easy solution, as I can just drag and drop photos, as far as I know, but other upload functions require that you use a selector to file to access photos and which is severely broken this way.

    Is there a better way to do it?

    I can do this in email, OSX 10.11.4 and photos optimized on my Mac.

    This error message, if any, that you get?

    ETA, I have tons of HD space on the Mac, so my pictures * may * not actually optimized for the moment. This parameter is a variable, depending on need.

    Have you tried to push the image of Photos? i.e.' select the photo, double click it and share it through the Mail option.

  • Update to new IOS - now all the photos from iphoto to my macBook suddenly are also on my iphone5S - how to delete photos on my phone without deleting on the macbook?

    Hello dear, I need your help.

    I did yesterday an update to new IOS - now all the photos from iphoto to my MacBook are suddenly also on my iphone5S - how to delete photos on my phone without deleting on the macbook?

    They are very old photo from my childhood so I definitley them do not need on my phone, but on my MacBook, I want to keep them.

    Thank you very much for your support.

    Check the settings on your iPhone.  Have you enabled iCloud photo library in the settings > iCloud > Photos on your iPhone?  Or "my photo stream?

    If you have iCloud library active on your and your iPhone photos sync iCloud and from there will to all your devices.

    If you do not want to synchronize on your iPhone photos, clear the iCloud photo library, but do not allow to delete photos from iCloud, or they will be removed the Mac as well.  With the removal of your iPhone, wait until all iCloud photo options have been disabled.
