• ICloud deleting deletes photo library photos from iCloud, photo sharing

  I have iCloud photo library on my Mac and on my iPhone.  I created an album of photos and videos to spend several weeks going apartment hunting in my neighborhood.  I have friends who are also looking for apartments in my neighborhood and these photos and videos would be useful for them.  So I want to share all these content with them using iCloud, photo sharing.  However, I have this great set of photos/videos over on my Mac or my iPhone, because I have an apartment and my use for these photos.

  So I want to:

  1. create a shared album (let's call it 'Videos apartment').

  2. Add all my photos and videos of my apartment hunting that is currently in my library to iCloud.

  3 share only iCloud library with my friends (they can add, comment, do what they want)

  4 delete the original files from my library to iCloud I don't don't need or want these photos over on my personal devices.

  My question is: if I delete the photo in step 4, which will also remove the same pictures of the iCloud Shared Library?

  It would be useful to know if the iCloud share photos are copies separated from my photos of the library, or are the same.

  Sharing albums and Photo library iCloud iCloud different services and are stored independently from each other.

  When you create a shared album and share with your friends, you will see the shared album and photos in your photo library, but you can remove the originals from your photo library, as long as you do not remove the shared album photos. In the shared album photos can be slightly smaller than your original photos, because there is a limit of size of pixels for shared photos.

• ICloud and obsolete Photos.library

  I had lost the data of three days because of a problem with the update (10.11.6) and damaged the last time machine backup. If I had recovered from the oldest. Now I want to synchronize photos with iCloud where are the most recent. But when I opened iPhotos app it starts immediately to download the entire library stored on my mac to iCloud. Why? These photos are already on iCloud and there's more recent photos. It should not just download these photos which are in lack of mac? And does not remove this download new photos iCloud?

  Thanks for any advice.

  Photos will upload your library still frequently. Every time you have to compare the current local library for iCloud. It will download all the photos in your library, compare photos in iCloud, resolve the conflicts.  Once all potos miising upload, it will start ing to upload photos that are found only in iCloud.

  If you restore your library from a backup, move to another disk or repair library, or if the crash Photos, download again the pictures and you can't avoid it.  Try to avoid the reasons for the upload.

• How can I prevent the download of the iCloud for iPhone photo library

  I bought my wife a new iPhone 6s more 16 GB for Christmas. She likes to take pictures with his iPhone, and she has many grandchildren phoos. I thought that his photos could be uploaded to iCloud and shared with his Macbook Pro that has 1 TB of storage and remove iPhotos on the iPhone, freeing a storage capacity on the iPhone, but I think that as soon as I upload the photos in iCloud, they will be reinstated in the iPhone. I must admit, I am completely confused about the iCloud shares the concept, so I thought I would ask experts. Currently, she has so many photos on her phone that she cannot download new applications. Help, please.

  Apple makes fairly simple

• Is iCloud photo library space use doubled if I use Photos and iPhoto apps?

  IPhotos and Photos apps right now: If an image appears at the same time it

  be transferred twice (with the help of double the amount of space) in iCloud storage space?

  IPhotos and Photos apps right now: If an image appears at the same time it

  No, you can not use iCloud with iPhoto and Photos at the same time on the same computer.  Photo library only at a time can synchronize with iCloud (My Photo Stream, shared Albums, iCloud, library).  If you enable iCloud for a Photo library, it will be disabled for the previous library.

  Sine you use Yosemite - in the first versions of Yosemite was a problem, and it was possible to activate my photo stream in iPhoto and iCloud library in Photos at the same time. But my photo stream does not count against your iCloud free storage, that is used for library iCloud, there is no overlap in iCloud photo library.

• the reactivation of iCloud photo library

  Had the following issue: my photos for mac app was stuck on downloading the last 22 pictures in my photo library to iCloud.

  I did some research and it was suggested "just deactivate and then reactivate" the library of iCloud.

  Well surprise after trying to turn it back on I got a dialog box telling me he does not have enough storage space, apparently he wants to download all the photos again?

  Question: Is there a way to force the photo app to use my iCloud already synced photo library.

  Because reuploading a library of 600 new GB would be powerful frustrating.

  Someone at - it an idea?

  Best regards, Jelger

  Update: I managed to start the synchronization again by activating via the parameters of iCloud iCloud photo library.
  It gives me a warning that I will probably will run out of storage iCloud.

  Hope now only it syncs to the same library and will disregard the duplicates.
  I'll post an update as soon as I can confirm anything.

• Photo library on iCloud and on my Mac?

  Now that I use iCloud for my Photo library, I can access of course from other devices, including another Mac. But not from the original Mac where I had the library on an external drive. Whenever I want to open Photo on the Mac, it will search the library on this external drive... so, what's the point of having the library on an iCloud? The reason why I wanted to iCloud had to move more freely and do not have to connect to each time the drive.

  Looking for answers on this topic, I can not find. Everyone out there can throw me a light? Thank you.

  iCloud library is mirrored on your Mac. So the behavior you see is expected.

• My photo library iCloud takes 2.5 GB of space, even if it is empty

  My photo library iCloud takes 2.5 GB of space, although it contains no photos or videos. I had this problem for about 6 months.

• Photo library take too much space even with active iCloud

  I am paying to iCloud and I have hundreds of GB available, yet my iPhone 5 c is constantly telling me I'll have storage problems, mainly caused by the photo library, containing several GB.  I have iCloud library enabled, as well as the option 'optimize iPhone storage '.  Photos latest have already transferred in my library, so I know that photos download correctly and not late, but why the library still takes so much space?

  Because it is.

  If you have used all available space on your phone, you need to remove some content on the phone.

  The setting "Optimize phone Storage" is not magic. Your phone still has a finite amount of space. It may be that pictures should be removed, but it will be something.

  Check the settings > general? Use storage & icloud. Look what's too much your space.

• Photos library 20 more GB on HD on iCloud

  Between yesterday and today my library of pictures swelled to 20 GB more bigger than my photos library occupies on iCloud.

  The ONLY change my photo library in the last month is a single photo, that I took this morning.

  Yesterday afternoon I had about 50 GB of free space on my system (I'm 100% sure of this).

  When I wake my computer this morning, I had < 5 GB remaining and a photo alert recommending that I turn on optimization of the library.

  When I went to check the size of my photo library folder, it was close to 80 GB.  I then went to my preference of the iCloud system to check, it indicates the size of my library of Photos to iCloud is 35 GB.

  When running the Photos to try to see if somehow a ton of pictures appeared magically in the library of the size of the library immediately dropped to 55GO.

  I just finished an attempt to repair to the library, the end result, is that my library is 56 GB.

  If I go into the preferences it indicates my library is synchronized with iCloud.  As stated above the only change to my account in the last 30 days was a photo I took of a document of this morning.  There is nothing particularly special about this picture, I checked that it is 2.1 MB in size.

  Someone has an idea from these ghost data and how to remove it?

  I have no idea about the rest of the stuff, you say, but it is quite normal for the library on your Mac is greater than that in the cloud, mine is bigger and a little more than 20 GB.

• Disabled by mistake to iCloud photo library and he turned his back.  Still says it will remove pictures

  I disabled the iCloud photo library photos & soft adjustment camera, as well as any type of sharing.  I need try to free 13 GB of space which has been monopolized by ghost photos that were not on any device or even show in icloud.com.  Restarted the phone, the data was retrieved, and I re-enabled all elements in parameters, including iCloud photo library of photo sharing.  iCloud library, Optimize iPhone/iPad, storage, Upload to my photo stream, download Photos of Burst, iCloud, sharing photos, pictures to summarize all lit up.

  The question I have is that I see the message:

  "iCloud photo library will be removed from iCloud in 28 days.  Choose to download and keep the originals below to download a full copy of your photos and videos. »

  That's fine, I have all my saved photos.  What I find that I am able to do is add any (as via iCloud.com Photos), as the 'Upload' button is grayed out and the same message appears on the header of the photos app page.

  I want to reset it.  I thought that turn everything would have been fine.  But it seems to be stuck.  I activated on all devices.  It's frustrating because it is preventing me from getting things done on the fly, I'm used to because I can't upload pictures in the Photos app.

  

• Removed all icloud photo library, 1.9 GB still in use

  I deleted all of my photo, My Photo Stream etc. flows including shared library iCloud.

  I have also ensured that the recently deleted album is empty. I disabled iCloud photo library on each device. It should not be a trace of left.

  However, I always told my library back 1.9 GB of my storage iCloud. There is an option to turn it off completely but it will take 30 days, which is a long wait when I don't know if it will work.

  Any ideas that he could be taking all this space? Or if there is a way to reset all empty without waiting for 30 days?

  I use the latest version of iOS on my iPad and the iPhone, and the El Capitan on my Mac if that helps.

  Have you tried to log in to your iCloud account, then sign in again?

• Should I Photostream if I use iCloud photo library

  Hi, I use iCloud library on my MBP, two iPhones and iPad and I still active Photostream.

  I'll try to find our knowledge if I need Photostream as well as use iCloud.  I have more than enough storage for the moment in the cloud then from what I can tell Photostream is not something that would fail me if I turned it off.  At the same time, I can't find a definitive answer anywhere!

  Grateful that if ever I decide to stop using the cloud, I can turn Photostream for my last few thousand photos.

  I also try to work if there is anyway that I can reduce the amount of space on my iPhone which currently takes about 13 GB of photo library.

  Any help would be welcome.

  Thank you

  Matt

  If you do not use my Photo Stream, turn off all devices.

  You need my photo only, stream if you also use older devices with iOS 7 or more, which can not support iCloud photo library. But if all your devices are set to synchronize with iCloud photo library, you don't need my photo stream. It might even cause problems.
