Liked my pictures photo library?

So I try to prepare to migrate to iCloud photos and I want to narrow down my library as much as possible. First of all, got rid of all my videos etc and who cut a good 50 concerts. But at this time I do not understand is if I click on all THE PICTURES and watch the news. It is said the library if 25,000 photos and 104 concerts. But, if I look at my photo library file in the finder that shows his 168 concerts, that if a good 60 concerts more. Much more data than 100 GB.

Anyone know what value goes to the wind in the cloud? 100 GB or 168 concerts?

Anyone know source all these additional data? I can only guess, previews and thumbnails or something.

In addition to the photos, you have versions and database files

  • Why the pictures/Photos Library.photoslibrary/Database/metaSchema.db rewrite? It seems to be causing large backups

    Since going to OS X 10.11.4, I was make great daily backups (+ 3 GB) on time machine. This seems to happen even if I hadn't used the machine so far here. I noticed that the Photos had a new date of all everyday even if I had not opened it or loaded new pictures, I looked at his files using Terminal.  It seems that ' Photos/Photos Library.photoslibrary/Database/metaSchema.db' was the file with the new date of every day. In my system, it is about 3 GB.

    What is the explanation for the file being rewritten every day? More importantly is it possible to prevent it? (Or Plan B: is there any similarly to tell Time Machine to ignore it when it finds files modified - assuming the metaSchema.db reconstruction is something that could be done without too much damage, if I already had restore the pictures of the machine time?)

    There is continually a synchronization process with your system photo library.

    And if you use iCloud the cloudphotosd library is also synchronize with the library, even if you use any Photos that day here.  Your system photo library is continuously in use.

    To avoid this, you need to have a library empty your library of the system, but then you cannot use Photos with the media browser or iCloud.

  • Photos: 0 images, Photos library: 3.98 GB

    Hello, I have a terrible time understand why [pictures > photo library] says that its size is 3.98 GB but there are 0 photos in the Photos app.

    I am trying to clear up some space on my laptop. How does less in order to find these "ghost" images and remove free space?

    The photo library can contain remnants of files from iPhoto or Aperture, if you used publishers external pictures that could not be moved to the trash, or similar. There may also be an iPod Photo Cache, which can be very important, if synchronize you with iTunes library.

    When you check the number of pictures in photo?  The 'Photos' view will show the number of photos that are not hidden, the "all Photos" view will display all photos, including the hidden pictures. The recently deleted album will show also pictures, waiting to be finally deleted.

    Have you checked, if the "Recently deleted" album is empty?

    If so, check which photo library you are currently browsing in Photos.  Photos > general Preferences tab has a button "show in Finder". It takes you to the library in your folder from another library of Photos or images?

    If your library is empty and contains no photos that you want to save it, you can simply delete the photo library you see in the Finder and try again with a new library.

  • How to handle Monster pictures 30 K in iCloud photo library? Segment or archive, suggestions?

    Hi there-

    I managed to hang a new iPhone 7 now and want to put up, but I'm struggling under the weight of a photo 32 000 iCloud photo library. Yes, I know it's my fault - we had iPhones for years, I'm an accountant family and the taker of the photo, I take too many pictures, I save too many photos, I have teenage girls who take a LOT of pictures.

    SO I think they are in the library of iCloud.  When I'm on my phone with iOS 10, I see "All Photos" and the total is slightly less than 32K - BUT I don't really need TO see all 32,000?  In fact, I don't really want to?  I would like to know that they are saved in their original resolution, but never need access to all those who, on minutes notice: they took 10 years to build up!

    Can I 'archive' in iCloud library?  They segment somehow?

    I have 7 more than 256 GB iPhone memory - isn't a storage thing, it's just something exaggerated.  I'm considering a facility clean b/c I'm also about 1000 apps more than 10 years old.

    But once I sign in iCloud, I think that 30K pictures will come streaming back, right?

    Other info:

    -My use of Photos on my 6 current iPhone is about 40 GB

    -J' have 800 GB available on a 1 TB iCloud account

    -In my iCloud account, it says that my photo library ICloud is 97 GB

    -I don't have an unlimited Smugmug Pro with photo storage account (although I'm not really all 32K of these-there are many who are not guards).

    -J' I download Google Photos to try to save it, but there still 30 000 pictures to back up.

    -J' have a MacBook Air but (gulp) do not have upgraded the operating system to have Photos for Mac yet.

    I would really appreciate it here a road map to get out of this situation - or not "stack" putting them all on my 256 GB iPhone 7 more and just accumulating more!

    Thanks in advance for the help!

    You can use a browser of the computer (for example, Safari) and you connect to https://www.icloud.com/ and open the Photos app here.

    Soon as your App Photos or iPhoto lost track of your photo library, or there has not been migrated from your old drive. You can create an empty library and probably enable iCloud photo library for photos to upload to the cloud.

  • 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.

  • Hello! If I icloud library disabled, will be always saved pictures? I know that your backup stores the photo library of all devices and because I'm not all devices to be synchronized I think I'm safe and won't lose my pictures/videos. Right?

    Hello! If I icloud library disabled, will be always saved pictures? I know that your backup stores the photo library of all devices and because I'm not all devices to be synchronized I think I'm safe and won't lose my pictures/videos. Can someone please clarify?

    If you want your photos backed up, you must import them into the photos on the computer application that synchronize you with. iCloud photo library is a repository for all the photos for a given iCloud ID. However, it is not required for the care of your photos. I do not use iCloud photo library - import my photos into the library of Photos on my Mac.

    A backup of your device iCloud will save your current film, but if you remove anything from this film, then it will not be available for retrieval at a later date, because backups replace the previous backup version. A backup is so not an archive safe for your photos or videos.

    Photo stream keeps the last 30 days or 1000 photos taken with your camera if you have Photo Stream on, but once again, it's a temporary storage that gets crushed. Photo stream is intended to provide a method of sharing photos between the signed devices on the same iCloud account, but is not intended as an archive.

    Import your pictures and videos on a computer means that all photos and videos are kept in a library on your computer and will be accessible. It is the only safe way to archive your photos:

  • Transfer the Aperture/Photo library to new Mac: how to manage the referenced pictures

    Here's the scoop.  I was a long-time user of Aperture with half of my pictures handled as pictures referenced to an external drive.  Photos, as I understand it, also sees the photos as mentioned.

    I then acquired a new iMac and want to now all of my photos to reside on his hard drive and I'll give up on opening.

    So, if I transfer the Photos library file to the new computer, how can I get these files referenced on the new computer?

    Do you want the photos to be referenced or you want to group as managed in the Photos?

    If you want to keep the referenced pictures, use Aperture on your old mac to move files referenced in a folder on the new Mac, before opening the Aperture Photo library to convert it to a library of Photos.

    If you are satisfied with transforming the library to a library of the crib, you can use pictures after the migration the photo library to build the library.

    Pictures has the command "file > consolidate" to move the intone library pictures and make managed, it has few tools to fix the referenced files broken, but it can not move the referenced files. No matter what move you want to do, do it in Aperture, while your library is still an Aperture library.

  • MAC - impossible to find "Pictures folder" / Iphoto photo library and open the Iphoto Application at all

    Hi all

    I have Apple devices for a few years now, but I still find it difficult to understand the system. I want to put an end to that, so I finally registered.

    I try to look at the tutorials and read the forums, but I can't find concrete answers to my situation.

    First of all, in my application of Photos of my MacBook, I remove hundreds of photos and videos, then I go to recently deleted screen and I delete them all permanently.

    However my disk space is the same before under 'Storage' summary when I check "to about this Mac". I restarted the Mac and waited for days, the space does not release upward.

    Then I read in a forum and found the following answer:

    Your photos has not deleted because they still exist in iPhoto or Aperture, whatever you use. Photos saves disk space by creating links to the already existing files in iPhoto/Aperture, rather than duplicate. This means that if you want to delete a file, you must make sure that it has deleted all.

    If you can live without ever using iPhoto/Aperture once again, go to your Pictures folder and delete iPhoto Library and Aperture Library . In this way, the only copies of your photos will be those photos, and removing free space on your computer.


    The questions are the following:


    (1) after reading this, I decided to look it up in my pictures folder in the Finder to locate the iPhoto library, however it is not there on the left side, after reading the forums, I still cannot locate the iPhoto library anywhere.

    (2) in case I finally find my iPhoto library and delete it, are the images that I see now in the deleted Application Photos?

    (3) another curiosity, when I try to open IPHOTO, the following message appears:

    And then after trying the 'search App Store':

    I did not need to actually use my iPhoto or App Photos in particular, I do not yet fully understand the difference. I want to just my photos to be stored in ONE place and when I take hours to remove them permanently, get my rear space and do not learn, they still exist elsewhere (iPhoto library).

    Also please help me understand what am I supposed to do with the iPhoto application now that gives me these error messages.

    Thank you very much!

    (1) after reading this, I decided to look it up in my pictures folder in the Finder to locate the iPhoto library, however it is not there on the left side, after reading the forums, I still cannot locate the iPhoto library anywhere.

    The images folder must be manually added to the sidebar.

    Open the Finder preferences:

    • Click anywhere on the empty office to bring the Finder to the front, then go to the Finder menu in the main menu bar, open "Preferences".
      Click the tab of the sidebar and add all the items to the sidebar, you want to see.

    Now, open the images in the sidebar folder in the Finder.  Is your photo library in iPhoto there?

    Then drag it to an external drive to make a backup copy, then delete it and empty the trash.  Accidentally delete the photo library.

    (2) in case I finally find my iPhoto library and delete it, are the images that I see now in the deleted Application Photos?

    No, the photos in your library of Photos and the iPhoto library are separate files.  It was created by hard links.

    Hard links are new files, which use the same entry in the table. They store the contents in blocks of same on the disks, so the entries are not duplicated, but if you remove one of the linked files, the others will remain. The storage will be released, when the last linked file has been deleted.

    How are your external drives connected?  Are mounted locally or network drives?

    And what is the file system on the external hard drive?

    You open the library from another user or another Mac account?

    You run applications cleaning to save space?

  • Why can not download pictures on Photoshop Mix from my photo library (iPhone 6s), even if I have authorized by the app?

    Why can not download pictures on Photoshop Mix from my photo library (iPhone 6s), even if I have authorized by the app?

    Hi burgosfx!

    In my view, the issue here is possible that your images are saved in the cloud (iCloud or another Cloud Computing service) and Mix has a hard time to capture these images. Please make sure that your images are saved locally on your device. Let me know if that helps!
