How to remove several photos library icloud?

I use icloud photos with multiple devices, including an iPhone 4, iPad, Macbook pro and two PC.

My icloud library is too large, with many duplicates (same photo taken several times) and many photos, I don't want to keep.

Deleting photos in the library using the icloud library is a slow and tedious process.  I can remove only one at a time, each time takes 20 seconds or more, even with Internet broadband.

How can I select and delete several photos at once?

Hello rhwolfson,

Thank you for using communities Support from Apple!

Looks like you want to be able to remove several photos icloud photo library at the same time.  I will do my best to help find a solution for you.

To delete multiple photos, the easiest method is to sign in iCloud.com on one of the computers you listed.  Once logged in, click on the photos icon.  When you are in the view 'Moments', you should see "Select of Photos" at the top right of the browser window. Click on 'Select Photos'.  You should now be able to select multiple photos and then click on the "Remove" button that appears.  This should allow you to delete several photos at the same time.

Have a great day!

Also now I have a ton of stuff on my camera, I want off the coast. How can I achieve this quickly. So I need to know how to synchronize only the files that I want on the device and get rid of those I want offshore (without deleting them one at a time).  Thanks for any help.

  • How to restore a photo library using iCloud on a MacBook?

    I now use iCloud for back up my entire library (more than 200 GB).  How to restore a photo library (including all data of pictures like faces, events, etc.) on my MacBook Pro when my MacBook Pro needs to be replaced?

    I used historically Time Machine to backup and restore my library when my photo library migration to another laptop.  However, I now do not have a backup Time Machine full of my library because the library is too large to store locally.  So now, I'm opting for storing it on iCloud to Apple servers using their 'optimize' Photos option.  Now, if I replace my laptop, I would be sure that as transparent as Time Machine restore solution is to obtain and import the Photo library (for example, the index of all my photos, events / files, location tags, face tags, etc.) on my new laptop directly from iCloud.

    Enjoy any clarity in iCloud library restore capabilities!

    I now use iCloud for back up my entire library (more than 200 GB).  How to restore a photo library (including all data of pictures like faces, events, etc.) on my MacBook Pro when my MacBook Pro needs to be replaced?

    You can create an empty photo library on your new Mac, and then enable iCloud photo library for this new library of Photos.  The library will download icloud, and most of the elements will be restored.

    But iCloud is not a backup. It's a centralized storage to keep all libraries updated on all your devices.

    There are some things that will not be restored to iCloud, for example the albums faces or your projects.

    This document describes how a library will be uploaded to iCloud to another Mac:

    Use iCloud photo library on several Mac - Apple Support computers and Photos

    After have connected you, these items appear in the Photos on your Mac app:

    • All photos and original videos
    • All folders and albums
    • Smart albums
    • Keywords
    • Keywords from searches of the tile faces
    • Key photo selections

    These items are available only on the Mac where you created the:

    • Books, cards and calendars
    • Slideshows
    • Keyword shortcuts
    • Unused keywords
    • Last album imported (this album contains photos you have imported recently on a specific Mac)
    • Facing tiles and faces of the data

    I is not entirely based on iCloud as a backup of your photos, but sometimes create a copy of your photo library on an external drive. In this way, you can restore your library, even if you are having problems with the internet connection, and it will be faster.

    Thank you

    Unfortunately, you can only batch with commands in the option "treat multiple files" of the editor or the 'Export' one in the Organizer. Action would be able to combine several orders for a single file, but do not use the command given on a lot. You would need a script for this.

    The two new orders to 14 elements (haze removal and shake reduction) can be very effective, but they can also produce strange artifacts... Their use in the batch may be undesirable.

    I recommend the following solution to improve lots of files needing to increase the local contrast:

    If you work with raw files, open a small batch of files from the Organizer in the ACR module. Use the cursor to 'clarity' to all files in the batch and add some sharpness.

    If you work with JPEG files, use the editor and choose "open in camera raw" option for your batch chosen files from the file.

    Who should provide a good improvement to most of your files. You can use two new orders than in the pictures with the specific defects:

    -shake (common with telephoto lenses) removal

    -mist removal (not only haze, but images softened with "flare")

  • Photo library - iCloud how to remove duplicates

    All, someone knows something about OSX/IOS 'Photos' app will detect and remove duplicates photo9?  My library 'Photos' 63 299 photos & videos of 2135 from may 2016 and at least 10,000 + of these photos are duplicates (based on an analysis of Photosweeper). I have checked the results of the analysis of Photosweeper by doing a manual visual comparison and check images original in iphoto library (using the function location of show) and confirmed that these 10 000 + photos are images duplicate identical with names of different files in different parts of the photo library database.

    So what is happening and how to stop 10-15% of my picture library being duplicate files! I will raise this directly with the apple support payment for the 1 TB icloud service to cover my very large library 'Photos', which should probably be just a large Photo library!

    A few other comments for those who have a double problem:

    -L' old iPhoto application used to "detect duplicates" when import but the new application 'Photos' does not. Anyone know about this?

    -J' saw the documentation from apple saying the icloud search duplicates in 'Photos' when in the icloud, but clearly not work or it does not work if duplicates exist also in the version of the imac to the library 'Photos '.

    -Beware of apps that claim to find 'photos' duplicate and are recommended on various Internet sites, a number of them don't work with the old iphotos app the new application 'Photos' (I discovered after you pay and download). If you need a remover of duplicates of photos that work with 'Photos' review and stay away from any application that do not specify clearly and explicitly he works with "photos" and has been seen since the release of the Photos app.

    + I paid $10 for "Gemini" dual Finder and has been a complete waste of time that didn't work only not with the "Photos" application (it wasn't not clear documentation or support, and when I trigger it supported by Macpaw that they said gemini does not support photos and told me to buy another app macpaw - I told them to go jump in a Lake).

    + I found very good Photosweeper that you can set to match exact or variable (for example photos of accidental burst which are 99.99% identical but 0,1s collapse) and then you can right click to view original file / image in the library to manually check duplicate (if you are paranoid like me) - there are many other paid apps that also make this store then around

    Photos detects duplicates when you import pictures and when you synchronize with ICPL

    Photos does not analyse the duplicates, but checks for them during import and download of IPCL

    There are a few duplicate programs that are tested as safe with Photos, including PowerPhotos, PhotoSweeper for the pictures and Duplicate Annihilator for Photos - do not use a tested and documented as safe\

    And I'm not clear what your post is about since you are asking how to find duplicates and then provide a good answer - photoSweeper - it is one of the safe and effective ways to remove duplicates for Photos

  • How to synchronize the photo library with the photo existing on iMac and iCloud library?

    Recently, I did a troubleshooting with Advisor to Apple for my iMac with the last OS X that I had a problem connecting to iCloud. Then he asked me to turn off services iCloud, including photos of iCloud but leaves all the databases. So now the problem went but when I turned on the photos from iCloud, it started to download all the photos back to the iCloud (6300 + pictures) instead of synchronization as it should.

    Is it possible to recognize the photos with the iCloud desktop library? Thank you!

    It's sync - just let it go - once you disconnect, then reconnect it must check each picture in order to ensure that it is correctly synchronized - i.e. how she "reconizes" that the photos are a ther
