• 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

  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.

• iPhoto Albums are now displayed in Photos with iCloud

  I've recently updated my iMac OS at El Captian and am now forced to use pictures instead of iPhoto.

  I had created a ton of photo albums in iPhoto to keep my pictures organized. I am also new on

  the use and payment for iCloud.

  Anyone have an idea how I can get my photo now organized photo albums on my

  iPhone and iPad?

  If your iMac, your iPhone and your iPad using iCloud photo library, any standard album, you create on your Mac will show in the album of the other devices section.  Only smart albums will not be synchronized to your mobile devices.  Smart albums are missing, or make your albums shows at all?

  See this help page, on what must have been moved in your iPhoto photo library.

• Lightroom has apparently stuck sync 1 mobile photo with Lightroom

  On my desktop application Lightroom CC, there is a message sating that Lightroom is synchronization 1 Photo.  The problem is that he has been displaying this message for weeks.  Stop/restart, the application makes no difference, and when I look at the apps Mobile to Lightroom and creative cloud on my iPhone, they don't think that there are pictures on the left to be synchronized.  Any advice on how to clear this error?

• Save the library of Photos with faces

  Hello

  I had to reinstall my Mac (clean). I supported my library of Photos (with iCloud than on library) on an external drive. Then all deleted and reinstalled my system. After put my photo library and turning on iCloud, all my 4000 pictures started downloading (and duplication) iCloud even they were already there. I had to stop this, delete my backup of the library of Photos and all photos were downloaded from iCloud. It would have been nice if I lose all my face tags (I spent a lot of time with) so how can I do the next time that when reinstalling my Mac?

  Thanks for the tips.

  Milan

  It do exactly what you did the first time. Make a backup of your library of photos on an external drive and copy this library back to restore.

  The pictures will download all the photos again and compare with iCloud photo library. It will not recognize the library restored as the same library it used before, but she uses a detection duplicates to prevent adding duplicates. It will take as long as the initial download.

  If you start with a library empty projects and thumbnails of faces will be lost.  (Use pictures and iCloud library on several Macs - Apple Support)  But the restored Library searchable faces tags. You can still search the faces you assigned previously and use to recreate thumbnails of faces more quickly.

  But wait, face detection was performed on the photos downloaded from iCloud photo library.

• 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.

• On photos on iphone with iCloud library storage

  How can I limit the space used by photos in ios9 without deleting icloud?

  With iCloud library enabled, you cannot delete a photo on a device (or iCloud.com) without deleting each device which uses iCloud photo library (iCloud.com). In order to save space on your mobile devices (and indeed your Mac if you want to) turn on the optimization of the pictures on these devices (settings > photos & camera > optimize storage on your mobile device and Photo preferences > optimize storage on your Mac)

  Dynamic optimization, it reduces the resolution of your photos, if necessary, so that you don't notice it occurring initially. However, when necessary, it is very effective, and users have reported libraries being optimized for much less than 10% of their original size in some cases. My own library is about 9% of its original on my phone size.

  In most cases, optimize your photos should be enough to raise the space related issues on your device. However, if you have an exceptionally large library you may need to disable iCloud photo library on your mobile device and use instead the photo stream. You can then use a computer to manage the photo stream photos and have them automatically imported into you iCloud photo library.

• Photos on macOS Sierra: Album of peoples does not synchronize with iCloud photo library

  Using Photos has just been updated for Sierra, and we finally have it in writing:

  https://help.Apple.com/photos/Mac/1.2/?lang=en#/phtf5e48489c

  Note: Persons identified in the album people are not synchronized between devices.

  And as far as I know, it really does not synchronize between my libraries of Photos on the MacBook Pro and my iMac.

  It's different in the 10 user guide iOS for the iPhone and iPad:

  http://help.Apple.com/iPhone/10/#/iph9c7ee918c

  People are synchronized between devices where you are connected with the same Apple ID.

  I wonder how this is supposed to work, if a Mac and iPhone are synchronized with iCloud User Library.

  None of the faces that I named on my iPhone did sync it with my Mac.

  Another indication that the lack of synchronization of the people and names is deliberate:

  This document has now also been updated:

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

  https://support.Apple.com/en-us/HT204486

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

  • All photos and original videos
  • All folders and albums
  • Smart albums
  • Keywords
  • Memories
  • Key photo selections

  He used to say, tags searchable faces will perform synchronization between devices, but the tags are more is mentioned. Now we have the 'memories' instead.

• Relink 'Library of Photos' to iCloud photo library

  This question relates to a clean install of Mac OS Sierra

  I have my library of Photos in pictures file, and there all my uploaded images. When I format my computer, how can I create a link to this file with iCloud photo library, so I don't have to download anything new?

  I still did not understand the exact procedure for this and want to avoid download it all again as I have in the past. There must be a way to link to the top, since I downloaded them all already.

  You can not

  If you restore a library or repair one that it triggers a total upload to make sure that everything is in harmony, there is no way to avoid that - you just start a new library and let ICPL fill the iCloud - he loses people and all

• Moved from my library of Photos to iCloud by car and now the pictures will not open it...

  I thought being smart and transfer my library of Photos to iCloud by car so I can access all my devices, but now the pictures won't open it. I hold down the Option key when starting the Photos and told to open the library moved in my world of iCloud drive. He complains about the library in an incompatible format (or something similar). If I move just back off iCloud drive to any where in my regular Finder file system then pictures is perfectly fine opening of the library. What the heck! Anyone know what is happening or that seemingly obvious thing does not work why?

  Yes... I think the library should be 'local' to your Mac. It can live on a USB key and maybe even a network drive, but I do not expect any level of performance with her on the cloud. If you think you can avoid to keep your phone synchronized with iCloud and still have access to all of your library, it won't work.

  Apple don't tell you not to do it, but they said this without mentioning iCloud drive...

  

• How to recover photos from iCloud in my library?

  For some reason, all my photos in my photo library have moved to iCloud and are no longer visible in my library on my macbook. How to make photos in pictures on my laptop?

  Your photo library must show the iCloud photo library, if iCloud is enabled in Photos > Preferences and you have opened the right library of Photos.

  You may have more than one library of Photos?

  Quit pictures, if it is running, and then press and hold the options while you cast again Photos.  You will see the library selector Panel.  It shows more than one library of Photos?

  If you see a different library here, try this one.

  Also open the preferences of Photos > Panel iCloud.  Check, if iCloud library is enabled.  You see a progress bar? Then, you may need to wait to download everything at the end, before you can access your iCloud Photos.

  

• I've disabled iCloud photo library by accident and lost all my photos in iCloud. I can find them somewhere in return?

  Product: iCloud (library), iPhone on iOS 9.2.1 5s

  I turned off my iCloud by chance photo library and now all of my photos in iCloud went. Is it possible to find somewhere?

  Turn on again iCloud library unfortunately did not help.

  Is there someone who can help? Thanks in advance!

  Just turned off iCloud library should not delete your photos. However, if you went in to manage stock and selected disable and remove they would be deleted but they would stay at https://www.icloud.com/ for 30 days.

• Library of photos on iCloud Drive as well as Dropbox?

  Hello. Is it possible to store my library of Photos both on iCloud drive like Dropbox? I like the iCloud drive, because it automatically syncs with all my devices, and I like Dropbox, since it will be an additional backup if something goes wrong with iCloud library.

  I think correctly? Or the two options are not compatible with each other? What I have to choose one or the other?

  Thanks for any ideas, you can provide.

  There is no disk icloud - you talk about iCloud photo library I think

  As for DropBox so far that no one could think I saw or heard of the box used to back up or transfer the library because the library must be on a formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) volume and drop box is not correctly formatted

  And note that ICPL is not a backup - it's a way to share your library between multiple devices - you still need one or more local backups

• Delete the contents of the 'library of Photos' on the Mac won't do photos in iCloud?
