IF I save my photos to iCloud is safe to delete them off my iPad to release a certain storage capacity

No it's not. If you use settings > iCloud > backup backup of the iPad to iCloud, be aware that the only thing you can do with the backup is used to do a full restore or configure a new iOS device. If you do a full restore, regardless of data/photos currently on the device will be replaced by the contents of the backup (for example, you would lose any new photos and other new information on the device since the last backup). Also future backups include is no longer deleted photos.

If you use settings > iCloud > Photos > iCloud photo library, know that it is a synchronization rather than a backup. All the photos you delete iPad will be deleted to iCloud and any other device connected to this library to iCloud. You can possibly reduce the required storage on the iPad by activating the storage parameter optimize on the same settings screen.

Apple does not currently of any option storage cloud for photos only. You can explore 3rd party opportunities such as Flickr, Dropbox and others who may have cloud options only.

  • How can I save my photos from the imac to the icloud

    I am able to sync all my iPhones to the icloud but do not know how to set up on my iMac. Any help would be appreciated

    You can save an iOS to iCloud device, but note that Apple does not backup to iCloud from a Mac. They have synchronization that is designed to share all your photos with all your devices and iCloud. If you use OS X 10.10.3 or later you can turn on iCloud library opening the Photos app, then go to preferences. Which would synchronize all your photos with iCloud and with other devices, have you already sync to iCloud.

  • iPhone: Photos and iCloud

    Here's what I hope I can do: I use iCloud for save my photos of my iMac.

    All my photos on my iMac will also my iPhone (5 000 + photos). It seems that I used to be able to select in iTunes that photoalbums I put on my phone. Now all my albums are on my phone and I don't see where I have something to say on the matter. (This is also true with my iPad).

    I really liked being able to choose the albums I've had on my mobile... I have certainly need my entire photo library on them. Any ideas?

    In addition, I see that if I delete a photo on my iPhone, it removes on my iMac as I certainly don't want to happen.

Now all my albums are on my phone and I don't see where I have something to say on the matter. (This is also true with my iPad). You must use iCloud photo library and that's how it behaves. If you use iCPL you have nothing to say as you mentioned. If you disable iCPL (carefully with the removal of the pictures without meaning to, see link below) you can manually choose the albums to sync to iTunes on your computer to your iPhone or iPad, this is how I do it.

  • Download multiple photos to iCloud for iPhone

    Hello

    I'm trying to find a way to upload several photos at the same time of the iCloud on my iPhone. I took a folder from my computer Windows 10 and placed in the iCloud folder. He did download all these photos, about 100 of them. I opened icon iCloud, since my iPhone Home screen, and all the photos are in the folder.

    The problem is, I don't see a way to download the photos on my phone. I can select several pictures, but I don't see the possibility of moving photos from one place to another within iCloud. If I open a photo it will then allow me to save the image on my iPhone, but I don't want to have to do it manually for each photo.

    Is there a way I can move the entire folder of iCloud on my iPhone without doing this manually? I don't want to have to open each image, click on another icon, then click on save to the phone option, it would take a very long time.

    If option 2 would just directly connect my phone to my computer and download the file to my phone via iTunes. However, it seems that this option is no longer available. When I selected my phone from iTunes, as if I want to sync my phone, but click on the 'Photos' option on the left, there is nothing that shows. The only thing that shows a message says "iCloud Photos is on. iPhone can access the photos in iCloud. Photos can be downloaded to your device via Wi - Fi or cellular network." It used to be that if I placed a folder in my photo album on my computer, it would automatically put this album on my iPhone folder when I did a sync via iTunes and is no longer does that. I don't know if there was some option that I disabled or if it is no longer do.

    Someone has suggestions on how to easily do so that I can keep a clean and well organized album without a lot of hassle or everything is mixed together, or without having to save each image individually?

    Thanks for any help,

    iCloud photo library is designed to adjust the size of the library stored on your device for the storage available on this device. But we must "Maximize pictures" turned on under settings > Photos. Here is an excerpt of the article first, I provided a link for below:

    Can I use iCloud photo library to save space on my device?

    iCloud photo library automatically keeps all of your photos and videos in the original version, in high resolution. Follow these steps to choose how you store your photos and videos on your device:

    • On your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch, tap Settings > iCloud > pictures or settings > Photos & camera, then select a storage parameter.

All of your original photos, full resolution and the videos are stored in iCloud while unit size versions are stored on your device. You can download original photos and videos over Wi - Fi or cell phone when you need it.

    If you turn on download original, iCloud photo library will keep your original, full resolution photos and videos on iCloud and on your device. Download the originals is the default setting for iOS devices with 5 GB free storage plan and all Mac devices.

    You need an Internet connection to access a photo original or video that is stored only in iCloud.

  • 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.

  • Photos and iCloud

    It boggles me.  I realize.  I'm going with Photos of Google.  There is apparently no way to save the photos on the cloud and remove them from your device.  Incredible.

    That's the idea behind iCloud photo library. It's a synchronization service, not a storage or a backup service. If this is what you want, then Google Photos will be suite you well.

  • Photos - photos of iCloud - several users share data bases

    Hi hoping someone can point me in the right direction here as it is driving me crazy!

    New Mac mini, OS X and photos app.

    Basically, I want to share a unique data base of Photos between two users on the same Mac accounts. Have followed all the advice online, I'm always running into difficulty. I put the database on an external SSD with permissions in place for any user access to the base (but only one at a time of course).

    All very well so far, but here comes the question. I want pictures of iCloud enabled on one of the accounts with complete download of all pictures to iCloud, when I get out of the photos, the photolibraryd process remains active. This means that when I change the account and you are trying to access the photos, I can't because photoslibraryd in the other account is accessed again. To work around this I started to enter photoslibraryd monitor and the murder of activity as well as the Photos itself before you log in to the second account and to access the Photos. This seems to work (but is a bit of a pain if I forgot!) - which is a lot more pain, it's that if I add some photos in the second account and then go back to the first, rather than synchronize the new photos with iCloud, product photos across the entire library 20,0000 resynchronization photo! It's bad!

    I have approached the wrong way? Is there a better way to achieve what I want - that is entirely database of shared photos between two users on the same Mac (with photo stream enabled on both accounts for these devices which have not iCloud photo activated) and iCloud photo enabled on one of the Mac accounts - without killing the process or any what fees General massive sync?

    Grateful for any help.

    Thank you very much

    Rich.

    It is not possible to share a library of photos between several users, if the library in question is your system library. If you cannot share the library used as the iCloud photo library with others.  If you want to share photos with others, use a separate library of Photos to share and transfer photos from there to your iCloud library.

    I found this in the documentation for PowerPhotos:

    : https://www.fatcatsoftware.com/powerphotos/Help/sharing%20a%20library%20between% 20multiple%20user%20accounts%20on%20one%20mac.html

    Share a library between several user accounts on a Mac

    Photos is not designed with use multi-user in mind, which makes it very difficult to create a configuration where only one library of Photos are accessed through accounts on your Mac. If you want to share a library in this way, the following restrictions will be applied (for the bottom of discussion, we have two users named A and B we want to share a library):

    1. Account that a single user can never open a library given in Photos at the same time. Before you can use the shared library as long as the user has, make sure to leave Photos as user B.
    2. None of the user accounts that access the library may designate as their "library system". The library system is actually open at any time by OS X in the background, as long as that user is connected, even while quitting smoking pictures not free the library so that another user can open. You must designate another library system library, or completely close the session user B before trying to access the library as user A. Note that this also prevents having this synchronization of library with iCloud.
    3. The library cannot be stored on your internal drive or any other drive where the permissions are respected. Fighting against the permissions on OS X is a losing battle. While you can play whack-a-mole to try to correct the permissions on the library before you open it, then something goes wrong and it is likely that you will be unable to access a part of your library. You should keep the library on an external drive and in the read window information in the Finder, make sure the checkbox "Ignore permissions on this volume" is checked.
