How photos store & sync with devices

Hello community.

I am an old user of mac and I must admit that I'm starting to be a little overwhelmed by new features in cloud computing.

I need your help to configure my devices to work the way I want to.

I have 2 macs (an iMac and a MBP), 2 iPhone and an iPad and a normal camera. I also pay for the 50 GB Apple cloud storage service. I have a time capsule.

What I want to achieve is:

1. all of the photos that I take (regardless of the unit i) should be visible in the camera on my primary iMac and synchronize automatically.

2 when I import pictures from my regular camera to my primary IMac, these photos may not appear in other devices (unless someone tells me that to do this, non-local storage).

3. when I delete a photo from any of my devices, the captain must auto delete main iMac.

4. last question: the time capsule backup is reliable? for example can I assume that the main iMac backup will have all the pictures inside?

5. If I do a backup usb and I copy on an external hard drive, the principal, is iMac iPhoto library - this enough?

How should I configure my devices - account iCloud etc. to achieve?

Thanks a lot for your help

Have a great weekend all the

1 - who is iCLoud - iCloud Photo library FAQ - Apple support - photo library all changes made on any device (additions, deletions, or modifications) are performed on all devices

2. which is not possible - for devices with limited memory you use optimized photos on these devices

3. again this is iCloud photo library as described in #1

4 - Yes, it is - to have all the original photo included yu must have the Mac being backed up together to download original photos on the Mac

5. I have that #4 was the last question - enough - not really - Time Machine for a TC is much better, since you hourly backups - do manual copies is very well, but you will not always the updated copy when you need it - and if you make manual backups, the drive must be in Mac OS extended (journaled) format

6 - See the article referenced in #1

    How can I get my photos to sync with mobile lightroom? It worked once and now they will not refresh with the new collections, I added and removed

    Hi suigeneris383,

    You need to activate the synchronization of the new collection by selecting the double arrow icon on the left of the name of collections.

    If so, then did the synchronized new images appear on Lightroom Web to Adobe Photoshop Lightroom ?

    Say Lightroom under the identity plate on the top left about the synchronization?

  • How Photos stores libraries?

    I would like to understand how Photos stores photos. I come from a background of Picasa. Picasa, only used tags to build libraries but not to reproduce the photo itself (which I understand). However, it looks like iPhotos and Photos really build a coded library which, in a sense, duplicate photos in their own system of coded library.

    Is this correct?

    So, if this is correct, I guess that if I want to use one of the photos of, say, a document, I first need to export in the pictures folder (or somewhere) and it access?

    And, if this is correct, it raises the question of whether copies of photo outside the library can be deleted safely? What a pity that 'information' about the photos of the library do not point to their original location in the pictures folder.

    It looks like iPhotos and Photos really build a coded library which, in a sense, duplicate photos in their own system of coded library.

    Is this correct?

    Photos, iPhoto, Aperture, etc., are essentially applications of databases keep track of your photos and everything that changes and tags have been added to them.

    If you have iPhoto and photo libraries, they both link to the same files on your drive. the files are not duplicated, even if she looks like this in the Finder. If you remove, say, iPhoto library, you re - win very small storage space.

    Because these applications are databases, you should let them consolidate (as opposed to the use of libraries referenced) all your images and never, ever try to reorganize or rename, the files directly in the library file.

    Dear community members, I use iCloud for synchronize Photos on three Macs and an iPhone. Suddenly, my photo library stopped sync on my MacBook Pro (retina, 13 inches, early 2015, OS X El Capitan 10.11.4).) I tried to add and remove pictures, but nothing happened. I tried to repair the library, but it did not work either. Could you please suggest me a solution? Thank you very much!

You can transfer data between the two using Drag and Drop or file third-party synchronization utility such as SyncTwoFolders. Or you can configure a DropBox account. Keep all common files stored in your DropBox account. Both computers then running DropBox and can transfer to and from the current folder. DropBox offers an initial free 2 GB of storage.

  • BlackBerry Torch 9800 smartphones & not sync with Documents to Go

    Hi all:

    I just bought a Torch 9800 using the latest desktop and OS 6.  I have loaded on Documents to Go that works fine on the BB, but it won't let me sync the Office for BB.  It gives me this message:

    Your Blackberry device seems to be connected with Mass Storage Mode.  Documents to go Desktop don't pair or sync with devices connected in this way.  Please disconnect and reconnect your device with mass storage Mode disabled.

    Does anyone know how to do this with device software version 6.0.0.141?

    Actually, this can be done in two different ways.

    (1) connect your device to your PC and when the context menu is displayed, simply choose the option that says "Charge Only". This does not trigger on your torch mass storage mode, yet still allows access to your device.

    (2) the method of the other, more difficult is perhaps the total mass storage mode. Go to Options > device > storage. Once there, turn off mass storage mode.

    How can I sync my iPhone with my mac mail without using iCloud?

    I use several 'GMX' and 'Web' of e-mail accounts.

    When I send email from my iPhone, they are only saved on it, but neither on the (GMX / Web) server or on my Mac.

    For e-mail accounts to synchronize between devices, they must be configured as IMAP accounts. POP protocol doesn't have this capability.
