iPhone Photo / video storage?

Hello

I have an iPhone 64 GB 6 s. I use the photos app with thousands of pictures and videos stored in the cloud. I have "value for the storage of the iPhone" enabled on my phone, but still have "photos and camera" with 30 GB of my iphone storage (my entire library is about 100 GB).

I have 70 GB of my available icloud allocation.

Why isn't this 30 GB in the cloud, thus freeing up space on my phone?

Thank you!

Just a thought - is the 30 GB I actually mention the optimized versions of 120 + GB of photos / videos...?

    Question:

    (1) if I buy a Samsung 850 EVO 1 TB SSD and place my photo storage, would there be a significant speed upgrade when I use Lightroom in the Library tab when I browse through the photos in the grid view and miniature to its larger size? I have 1000 + photos and I want to be able to navigate through it a bit fast. The speed increase would be significant or only minimal since I was already using a Western Digital Black / RE already? If the speed increase is in importing files only so I'm not interested. I want the upgrade of speed in browsing the photos.

    (2) using the 1:1 previews make navigation I want faster? Or is the previews if you zoom in? Lightroom uses the Preview 1:1 display/large mode library/grid?

    Note: I can't try it again now on the system indicated above, given that my system is not yet done. I'm still waiting for parts that are not yet available here in the Philippines.

    Thank you.

    N ° there is only a difference of trivial speed, you would never notice.

    Put your photos on the slower drive, that you have, you will not see a difference. Do not put the photos on a fast disk. See will be an SSD performance of Adobe Lightroom? Computer darkroom

    Speed of the drive also does not improve the speed of importing either.

    (2) using the 1:1 previews make navigation I want faster? Or is the previews if you zoom in? Lightroom uses the Preview 1:1 display/large mode library/grid?

    Yes. And you can also select an option for previews, never delete so previews are still present in case you revisit these photos in a year (for example). Put your catalog file and found on the SSD.

  • When I turn off the option "optimize the iphone storage" in iCloud photos, made my phone automatically re - download all my photos/videos in my phone again?

    I used the option "optimize the iphone storage" on my old phone to save space, but I hated waiting to load when I want to watch them. Now, I clicked on "Download and keep the originals", but I can't tell if my phone is re - download the original photos/videos to iCloud to my phone. What does automatically or are these pictures forever in the version "optimized" on my phone?

    Subsequently, it must download the originals. Synchronization is VERY slow, so it may take some time depending on how many photos you have.

  • Can a huge quantity of slow iphone photos

    Hello

    A simple question. My wife and I have both an iphone 6 (128 for me, 64 for her).

    My phone is slower and slower over time and we the speed difference can be seen when comparing the two. His phone is as fast as the first day.

    The difference, I have an amount 'huge' photograph in my phone. (60 GB, 13 k photos/video).

    This may be the source of the slow?  I still have more than 20 GB of free space.

    Or... what could be the reason...?

    Thank you

    JC

    the storage of the photos should not affect the speed but have several open applications, having applications that are more intense than others.

    Better test would be to restart the two phones, from a cold start and measure the response.

  • I have 0 photos/videos on iCloud. Said using its 2, 1 GB

    I have 0 photos/videos on iCloud. But it says in my phone and mac I use 2, 1 GB!

    My photos are all on the computer. The iCloud library is disabled on the Mac.

    It is enabled on the iPhone.

    Any ideas?

    Thank you very much

    The iCloud library is disabled on the Mac.

    It is enabled on the iPhone.

    If you use iCloud photo library on the iPhone, your photos in the Photo.app iPhone will use iCloud storage and this is what you will see in system preferences > iCloud on Mac as well. The iCloud storage is shared by all devices using the same AppleID and not separated for each device.

  • 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.

  • What are the meanings of the iPhone Photos files.

    I am struggling to understand the logic behind the records in the Photos of the iPhone. Unfortunately, Apple chose the worst possible name for its application, any research on 'Photos' results in millions of useless results. After an update of a system, pictures made several copies of existing pictures so that now my storage is full. I don't know how it works. For example, I tried to delete the photos in 'Selfies', but for some reason, it cannot afford to do. I tried to upload photos on mac, but now in Photos on mac means that the option 'delete downloaded photos' is absent, and photos can be downloaded from the "Camera roll" record, whatever it. It seems that I have zero control over the photos. What I want to do is to understand the logic behind the Photos from the iPhone, I want to remove copies of existing photos, and learn how to transfer photos from iPhone Photos to mac Photos.

    How to use pictures, it works at all?

    Photos made several copies of existing pictures so that now my storage is full.

    Synchronize you the photos on your iPhone during a sync with iTunes?  Can't delete photos from the iPhone, if you are synced with iTunes. These photos will be deleted, if you synchronize again and select an empty folder to sync.

    Photos on the iPhone and the Mac is now your photos in a library. This library is a database with several different views of the same photos.  The photos are stored only once, but predefined albums show you the pictures grouped by various criteria in order to access and find quicker.

    • Moments, collections, the years are grouping your photos of the site and sort them by date, oldest first.
    • All photo album shows all the photos, but sorted by the date you imported, so you will find always the more recently added photos at the bottom of the album.
    • The smart album 'Selfies' shows all photos taken with the front camera.
    • The panoramic album shows all the photos with extreme proportions.
    • The album film shows the pictures that were taken with the iPhone/iPad, transferred with My Photo Stream, or were recorded in the film, but not the photos sync with iTunes.

    He has more albums predefined are special-purpose.  And you can create your own album to group your photos as you wish. Move albums in a folder, so you can more easily find your albums.  A photo can be in a lot of albums, but is only stored once. The albums do not need a lot of extra storage, because they refer to photos in the photo library.

  • Photos of iCloud is not equal to iPhone Photos

    For the 1st time, I decided to take a look at my photos online on icloud.com--> iCloud Photos from iCloud complained that my storage was almost full.

    When I compare my icloud.com photos with my iphone Photos, the content is totally different.

    I wonder why?

    Until today I had used my photo stream on the iPhone and the opening.

    Everything seemed to work as expected, IE: photos taken on my iPhone would be present in Aperture.

    Can anyone shed light regarding:

    1 - Why the Photo content iPhone and iCloud online Photos are different?

    2-if I delete the pictures online what will happen to the Photos on my iPhone or vice versa?

    3. can delete the photos online with no impact on my iPhone or opening photos?

    Following my iPhone Settings (settings--> Photos & camera)

    + Configuration for opening iCloud.

    There is a difference, because your image library to iCloud is not toggled on.

  • 'Photos' video export - dragged = ".m4v" - copied = '. MOV' at different resolutions?

    Hi all

    I use a 6 s iPhone from video capture to 4K. Connect my iPhone to a MBP running yosemite, pictures / videos are imported in 'Photos '.

    If I have:

    A. drag the videos to a folder on the Mac format becomes .m4v and up to 1280 x 720 resolution changes.

    B. open Macintosh HD > users > > pictures > Photo Library.photoslibrary > contents of package for the show (right click).

    the videos in the database of Photos are . MOV and are full resolution of 3840 x 2160

    Questions.

    1. Why is it I can not drag outside 'Photos' and keep the original resolution of the image?

    (I looked in preferences and there seems to be some options for resolution).

    2. is there a possibility of not import videos in 'Photos' with images, but save them either to:

    a. a file on the mac?

    b. I separate roll / event automatically.

    The reason is that I find the videos take up a lot of space on my boot drive and I would prefer to be able to easily isolate 'Photos' database to stop the database more in a gargantuan file.

    See attached picture of the 2 variants in a folder. Note the difference in size of the 2 versions.

    If others have smarter solutions to manage the import of videos of iPhones, looking forward to hear about that.

    Thanks in advance.

    Matt.

    By dragging pictures or videos from the browser exports preview files, and which may have a lower resolution.  "File > export > export Original" will export the initially imported master file.  So, simply select all your videos in the 'Vidéos' smart album in the album view and "file > export > export the originals ' allows to export all the videos at the same time to a folder outside the Photos.

    In addition,

    If you hold down the button ⌥ (option key) as you drag a video to the desktop, the original file is exported to the place.

    2. is there a possibility of not import videos in 'Photos' with images, but save them either to:

    a. a file on the mac?

    b. I separate roll / event automatically.

    If you use my photo stream instead of import by USB, auto matically only photos will be imported, because my photo stream does not transfer videos.

    Or you can use the picture Capture application to import all the photos and videos from your iPhone to a folder.  Sort the folder in the Finder by type of file, then import just photos from your photo library.

  • photos/video extract iOS for mac messages

    Hello

    I'm looking for a way native extract/transfer and save all iOS app photos/video of my iMac message without having to flip through each thread message to select pictures and videos. There are many threads to pass by...  I've used the Preview.app to display pictures of my backup folder iPhone MobileSync on my iMac, which seems to have worked to extract all the images in the Messages.app on my iPhone at the same time. However, there was also video included, and I don't am not sure about the video was extracted from the iOS Messages.app or retrieved in a format that I can read.

    I was wondering if anyone knows a way to extract all the video and photos from an iPhone to a Mac so that I can record before deleting all messages to make room on my iPhone?  I prefer not to use if possible third-party applications.

    Thank you.

    I was able to use the details option in the upper right of any window of a particular message in order to get all the images/videos sent by this particular user. Once I've selected all the images/videos that I wanted to save I could right click on one of the image selected, who brought up the option Save this group in my library of photos.

    iCloud is not configured in this way. If you are connected with the same Apple ID, photos from the two devices will be synchronized to iCloud and vice versa.
