• Photos.app download of my entire library after backup time machine

  OS X El Capitan, Photos 1.5...

  I've restored my mac from a time machine backup. Now pictures downloading my photo library 63 GB (on my poor 1Mbit upload connection shared with a household of users).

  He had already done once before on my macbook, but I just discussed with him and took it to a place that had a speed of fast download for a few hours.

  This machine is an imac so I can only do :-(

  Why are the pictures reuploading my entire library if it is already in icloud? and how can I make it stop?

  Seems that it must have a mechanism like dropbox where it checks if the file already exists in the cloud and then puts a check mark next to indicate that it is synchronized...

  What makes it more problematic is the fact that the photos app is not download new content from my photo library until the download is finished... so I have about 5 days of photos in icloud which are not visible on my imac...

  I tried searching but the photos.app unfortunately vague name and a ton of articles vague time machine has proved to be an obstacle that cannot overcome my Googling skills.

  Thank you!

  Why are the pictures reuploading my entire library if it is already in icloud? and how can I make it stop?

  Photos have no way to know if the 'new' restored library is the same as what is stored in iCloud photo library, then it is control a single photo at a time...

  You can pause downloading pictures > Preferences > iCloud, and then resume it during the night when it is not slowing down your normal use.

• Photos wants re - download my entire library

  I recently had my iMac HARD drive replaced under the recall and thought I was smart by backing up my library of Photos on a laptop HARD drive beforehand (so I didn't have to download all the 500 GB to restore). Now, I have my machine backward, I restored the library to its former location, selected photos, on iCloud Photos, set it to the library system and... he wants to download * the entire library to the cloud... even if it is exactly what is already there.

  -A any who successfully restored a local backup of their library and re plugged on iCloud?

  -Am I crazy to think that it should recognize the files on the iMac as what exists in the cloud? I used Dropbox, SugarSync and CrashPlan and they seem to manage it.

  See you soon.

  * I have an asymmetrical connection stupidly (100Mbs down, 2Mbs upward) and both up and down the County towards my quota for re - download isn't really an option. I could remove the library and have it re - download in the coming months, but really?

  There is no help for it.  When you restore a library of Photos, move it to another drive, or even just fix it. Pictures download pictures again to merge with what is currently in iCloud. Must download files to iCloud and compare.

  You can avoid the download to come away with a new library, which will download icloud.

  But this way, you will lose all printing projects - books, calendars, cards.   Thumbnails of faces are not stored in iCloud, so you will need to name the thumbnails of faces again.

  Hey NicholeLewis

  every computer manufacturer has their own way to start the recovery process to put it on the back to factory standards

  It can be F8 and select repair your computer or F10 or F11 at startup to start the process

  0 or Alt + F10

  you will need to ask the manufacturer for the correct key sequence

  also you can ask them to send you recovery discs to back to factory standards

• How to remove photos from my iPhone without deleting icloud photo library?

  My iPhone is full and I wanted to remove some photo to release some spaceso I supported the up to iCloud and I started to remove photos. ***? They are endangered to iCloud! Now, they're just gone. It's crazy! Image capture you can import to everywhere, but the function "delete after importing" seems to have disappeared. I'm sure this question has been beat to death, but how you remove photos from their phone without removing them from their photo library iCloud?

  So frustrating.

  Does anyone know of a solution to this?

  iCloud is a synchronization system, not just external storage.  Once you turn on photo library all you do with a photo is on ALL of your devices (including remove them).  See the last section in this article on how to recover pictures that you inadvertently deleted:

  iCloud: use iCloud photo library on your iOS device

  How to remove pictures and videos from a camera using iCloud photo library?

  When you delete a photo or video of your Photos app, also will not delete your photo library and iCloud iCloud storage. You can retrieve your photos and videos from the album recently deleted for 30 days.

• iCloud photo library stuck in an interminable loading which slows down and stops my entire network.

  Last month I've upgraded successfully to El Capitan. Since then, after choosing to automatically download and store my entire library to the cloud, the download process caused a lot of problems. First of all, I had to leave the laptop on day and night and connected to the internet to complete the download. He has almost completely downloaded (with several modem restarts because the massive data download accidents caused connectivity) but then I had a planned trip and had to shut down the process. I tried to start again when I arrived at my destination, but it seemed to have started the process everything again (see below where the progress bar is at the very beginning again when previously, it was almost completely to the end) and close network of my poor host several times AND he ate all my CPU activity slow down and even stop any other activity of the laptop. Finally, I had to leave the process altogether for the rest of my visit. In fact, I had to disable wifi on my laptop because the process continued in the background even when I got the Photos app off the power. When I returned home, I studied the problem and learned how to fix the library by pressing the command and Option keys when I turned on the photo program. Once, the process started all over again and this time, he showed an any number of items to download (there was less than 25 000 points before this download now it shows more than 26,000).

  

  Finally, I got it at the Apple Genius Bar, in the hope of a quick solution. He, even, fixed the library as well as a few other permissions by using Apple's Diagnostics. Everything seems to be working again, but the process had to start all over again for some reason any and he told me to connect the laptop to the modem via a cable and left running overnight until the process completed. I did it. The first night, I was happy. It seemed that 25% of the process had already been completed. At this rate, it wouldn't take another 4 days. He told me that when he gets in, he would never to do it again. HOWEVER, after the second night of leaving it night directly connected to the modem, I checked it this morning and it seems to have started all OVER AGAIN FROM THE BEGINNING! Still, he hangs up my entire network. I can't watch the Apple TV, or use my iPad for work or my iPhone to access and other plans. Currently, there seems to be a nightmare without end of download and spoil my network (and notice that there are now more 28 000 points).

  

  This is intolerable. I can't live in this endless loop of photos download crashing my network and slow down my programs. I understand that this is not a problem isolated to me. So, did anyone found one simple solution other than its use onedrive or flickr or another synchronization photo program?

  28 000 pictures takes a lot of time - it took me ten days to 7000 and whenever you try to 'fix' it do you it longer - I stopped mine during the day when I was home so it wouldn't screw up my internet access form other devices, defined the Mac not to go to sleep and turn anytime I don't have internet

  Basically, your choices are to turn it off and not use ICPL or use it and let him complete without constant interference and restart the process

  Once he finished he initial transfer it stays out of the way, even with large updates (I added more than 10,000 photos since my initial download)

  Hello Subocz E M.

  Thank you for using communities of Apple Support. I see that you had problems adding pieces and turn off Genius. I know how it is important to be able to add music to iTunes. I'm happy to help you.

  Since you are being invited to turn off Genius, you can add music, please use the following information to resolve these two issues:

  Turn on or off the Genius

  If iCloud music library is enabled, you cannot disable Genius.

  Choose file > library > Genius (toggle Genius).

• How to manage a large library of Photos with iCloud

  I have an iMac with a 1 TB drive. El Capitan.

  I have a library of Photos that is 450 GB.

  I use NOT currently in iCloud photo library.

  Library to backup to external hard drive.

  I would switch to 500 GB SSD drive, so I need to cut the pictures library to adapt.

  I tried to read as much information, but I'm still not clear on some points.

  Hard to test on the great library.

  Traverse and the cleaning of a large library of Photo are your time, I'm looking for less than hands on options.

  My thought:

  1. upgrade to iCloud 1 TB storage Plan

  2. turn on iCloud photo library (original leave) and wait a few days/weeks/months to the great library to synchronize with iCloud.

  3. turn on iCloud photo library (optimized) on iPhone and iPad to synchronize all libraries and get all the originals to iCloud and then the iMac

  Q1. How much space will be a large library as it takes on an iOS device. I'm afraid that even an optimized library will fill 64 GB device.

  (I know that's dependent on media, but just looking for a guideline for iOS, I think OS X is 9to1)

  4. once everything is synchronized, copy the photo library in DHM (properly formatted) as a backup.

  5. start the on EHD photo library to ensure the proper functioning.

  6. allow photo library on iMac as the synchronized library. Don't want to keep always connected DHM.

  7 change library Photos optimized on the computer and let the full synchronization.

  This should give me a library optimized on the iMac and a complete library on the EHD.

  However, since the EHD are not the Central Library for iCloud synchronization, it will remain not being updated.

  Q2. Can I create another user account on the iMac with my iCloud settings and using EHD originals full as the main library?

  That would allow me to periodically plug JEP, throw the other user account and let pictures synchronize updates and get new originals.

  This would be mainly used as a backup plan, so I rely not only on iCloud himself.

  Is this a reasonable plan or I'm far from base.

  Kind regards

  Brettdog

  Q1. How much space will be a large library as it takes on an iOS device. I'm afraid that even an optimized library will fill 64 GB device.

  (I know that's dependent on media, but just looking for a guideline for iOS, I think OS X is 9to1)

  My library has only about 200 GB on the Mac, with 40000 photos, but it's horrible on the iPad in an optimized version. Size is fine, he has been reduced to about 10% of its original size, but work with Photos is a pain, if each photo is just a fuzzy image and needs icloud download to view properly. Sometimes it takes a minute or more to recover the photo, so it is impossible to browse photos or making a slide show.  On the iPad, I returned to sync with iTunes, the albums selected. On the iPhone, it's not so bad, because the screen is smaller, and blurring is tolerable.

  Q2. Can I create another user account on the iMac with my iCloud settings and using EHD originals full as the main library?

  You can do it from your normal user account. Alternate between libraries and to the iCloud photo library on the external drive.

  It will be easier than permission risk issues when you access a library of two different user accounts.

  If you want to reduce the size of the internal Player library quickly, remove the library on internally, after that you are sure that the copy on the external hard drive is working properly.  Create a new library on the internal disk and make your iCloud Photo Library., optimized. The library will download in an optimized way and be much smaller to begin with.
