Linking the Photos to iPhoto library

• The photos in iPhoto and the same pictures? Is it possible to remove/save the photos to iPhoto?

  The photos in iPhoto and the same pictures?  Is it possible to remove/save the photos to iPhoto?

  Yes, they are literally identical. That is to say, time iPhoto Library and photo library (link) to point to the same files on your drive.

  The two libraries does NOT duplicate these files. If you delete the iPhoto library you will find very little storage space.

  My suggestion would be to leave in place iPhoto library until you have the habit of Photos and know with absolute certainty that all migrated to Photos correctly. Even in this case, you can copy, save a copy on a disk external backup and only remove them from your main drive.

• Update to new IOS - now all the photos from iphoto to my macBook suddenly are also on my iphone5S - how to delete photos on my phone without deleting on the macbook?

  Hello dear, I need your help.

  They are very old photo from my childhood so I definitley them do not need on my phone, but on my MacBook, I want to keep them.

  Thank you very much for your support.

  Check the settings on your iPhone.  Have you enabled iCloud photo library in the settings > iCloud > Photos on your iPhone?  Or "my photo stream?

  If you have iCloud library active on your and your iPhone photos sync iCloud and from there will to all your devices.

  If you do not want to synchronize on your iPhone photos, clear the iCloud photo library, but do not allow to delete photos from iCloud, or they will be removed the Mac as well.  With the removal of your iPhone, wait until all iCloud photo options have been disabled.

• What happens when the photo of system library is on an external drive and then the system creates a library of Photos? How do merge you them?

  What happens when the photo of system library is on an external drive and then the system creates a library of Photos? How do merge you them?

  Your library system can be on an external drive, if the drive is Mac OS extended (journaled) format and mounted on-site.

  But you must be careful, your external drive is always connected and available before the Photos and to import new photos.

  If Photos opens a different library, news, you can switch to the library on your external drive by double clicking on an external library. You can have several libraries, no problem.

  But pictures don't have any tools to merge libraries. You can switch between libraries, then open them alternately.  To merge two libraries export the photos of the smallest library and import the photos exported in the largest library.

  Or use third-party "PowerPhotos" to move photos between libraries.  But the merger is not supported in the free trial version. You must purchase the full version. You can download it here: Fat Cat Software

• Delete all the photos in a library

  In Adobe Revel, I have a library and have created an album. I've added the pictures selected in the album of the library; I'm now done editing the album and shared. If I delete all the photos in my album library will remain unchanged?

  If you delete the photos in the photo library, then they go away from all the photos and all devices. You can remove photos from the album and they will remain in the library.

  The library is the main location where the files you download are stored. All the photos in an album are actually stored in the library. When you 'Add' to an album, you are simply want to show under that name of album, but are not duplicate the file in an additional location. You can 'Add' photos to multiple albums, but there is actually only one copy in a library. If you download the photo in another library, then this is a second copy of the photo.

• understand the flow of photos from iPhoto library photos vs vs

  I just transfer a bunch of photos from an external hard drive in my iPhoto library.  I created several new Albums right here.  The problem is that my photos are not displayed when I click on the Photos icon on my menu bar.  Also new albums and photos will appear not on my iPad via the photo stream.  I don't understand how the 3things: I picture library, photos, photo stream, work-sharing app.  How to do all of my albums (and the photos in these albums) duplicate in all (or appear to) all my devices?

  Migrating from iPhoto to a Photos library library affects only the photos in the iPhoto library in time. Photos and albums added to the iPhoto library after that will be in the iPhoto library unless you also import the photos into your photo library and set and fill albums.

  Albums are not spread through my photo stream, only by iCloud photo library.

  The new model is of approximately:

  * Use only the Photos app and the library of Photos on your Mac (s). After the initial migration, ignore iPhoto and its library.

  * Use iCloud photo library as the repository ignoring my photo stream unless you have devices that don't support icloud photo library (for most older iPods). You may need to increase your storage plan iCloud to organize all your photos and videos.

  * Use the Photos app on your iPhone (s) and iPad (s) with iCloud as library active. Again, my photo stream is necessary only if you have devices that don't support icloud photo library. You can use the option "optimize storage' to save the storage space on your iPhone (s) and iPad (s).

• Photos and iPhoto Library - transfer both?

  Hello. I'm trying to transfer my library of Photos on an external hard drive to free up space on my Mac. I noticed there is a huge iPhoto library in both images and don't know what to do with it.

  I'm running OS X El Capitan 10.11.5 and was completely out of memory. I already reformatted a WD My Book, 3 t in the correct format and am currently uploading Photos.  My question is, I need to transfer the iPhoto library as well to keep the Photos work properly? I have read conflicting information. It seems that they may share data and deletion of iPhoto could damage the library?  iPhoto is GB 336, Photos is 447 GB.  I have space for both but prefer delete the iPhoto library rather than transfer if that's for sure. He said also, photo transfer will take 4 days and I do not want to make twice as much...

  Separately, I also have a small external hard drive, I moved a partitioned iPhoto library to several years ago. I used iphoto Library Manager software. I have pre 2010 photos out there and no where else other than a backup hard drive. Remove the iPhoto library on my computer effect my ability to use the one partitioned? I would like to merge all to a library of Photos now that I have the space.

  Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you!

  Yes and no

  There is no connection between the photo library and the iPhoto library - you can move or delete without effect on the other - don't know where your found contradictory information but there is no link between them

  However, if you move one and keep the other won't save you any space - you must move both to save space on your Mac - if you are sure you are finished with the library of th eiPHoto, then you can simple delete it, but it is advisable to keep a copy of archive of it to the case where

  And don't forget that the EHD must meet these requirements-must be in Mac OS extended (journaled) connected via a wired connection format fast as ThuderBolf, FireWire or USB, not used as a backup volume Time Machine and always available before pictures being launched

  And the copy of the library (if you have the good fast wired connection) will not take 4 days - the finder is an estimator of bad weather

  As for the separate iPhoto library again once there is no link between multiple iPhoto libraries - and there is no way to merge them after their migration into Photos (you can merge the iPhotoLibrary Manager iPhoto or Aperture libraries and you can add pictures to a photo library to another) you can migrate the second iPHoto library by dragging it to the Photos in the Dock icon - PowerPhotoscan merge the masters previews in another library and PowerPhotos can be continued to display the two libraries

• Synchronize the Photos and iPhoto?

  Photos arrived it imported all my photos in iPhoto. I have not really used pictures so far and now I realize that my library in pictures is a duplicate of my iPhoto library, except that they are not synchronized. My iPhoto library is updated, every photo I want is removed. This is not the case with Photos. Is there a way I can synchronize the two apps so that the pictures is exactly the same as iPhoto is now? Now iPhoto and Photos together use more than 100 GB of space, when in reality I have about half of it in photographs.

  If I can't sync, deleting photos in one application will not delete not them on the other, correct? In other words, I can delete all photos of Photos without deleting my photos in iPhoto, right?

  I have pictures 1.0.1 and iPhoto 9.6.1

  Thank you

  When you open the Photos first, the migration of the iPhoto library and photos of 2 libraries are hard linked to where they do not place additional, even though both show a large amount of data. However, from there, they are treated separately with respect to the addition or deletion of photos.

  You cannot synchronize the 2 applications. They are distinct and have nothing to do with one or the other.

  So, you might want to simply select the one you want to use and go from there. I guess that iPhoto is gradually thereafter. Photos will be more integrated into the system as well as for tasks such as sharing in emails, adding photos to apps like mail and so on.

  Yes, you can remove some or all of the photos in one application and does not affect the other.

• Photo transfer iPhotos library

  iPhotos crash on my iMac, so I think it would be better now to transfer everything to the Photos App. How can I do this and how would retain the albums that I put in place? I use iPhoto for all my digital scrapbooking kits and they are set up as events. I created albums to allow easy searching for example 'ribbons' etc. I don't want to start all over again create these albums. Any help is appreciated, thanks

• If I switch to the photos in Iphoto

  Im running mac end 2012 with mavericks and want to upgrade to a new model of 27 "5 k. I know that all my photos will have to enter the new Photos app when I migrates from one to the other.

  Is someone can please tell me if the photos app is always keep all my events and albums in iphoto. IM assuming that the slide shows will not be imported.

  Also... do you do simply drag and drop photos into Photos like you do in iphoto?

  If you simply drag and drop automatically appear as a new album, and you have the opportunity to name this album everything you want.

  I did like iphoto and some of the horror stories I have heard about Photos is putting me off the upgrade.

  I also guess that you can't create a slideshow in the new app or transfer photos directly to flickr.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated

  When you open the first Photos on the new machine, it will attempt to automatically import the contents of the iPhoto library. I don't really know what it does not matter.

  If you have the latest version of iPhoto then before opening the pictures make a copy of your iPhoto.library file located in the folder/Home/images /. You can update iPhoto to the latest version and continue to use it in El Capitan. See the following topics:

  Re: Iphoto's gone? I want to go back!

  Go to the App Store and check out the shopping list. If iPhoto is there then it will be v9.6.1. If it's there, then drag your existing iPhoto application (not the library, just the app) to the trash. Install the application on the App Store.

  IPhoto is sometimes not visible on the shopping list. It may be hidden. See this article for more details on how to view it: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4928.

  A question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall? iPhoto, the application and the iPhoto library are two different parts of the iPhoto program. So, reinstall the application should not affect the library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always.

• Restore the photos to iphoto on El Capitan

  I just did a clean install of El Capitan and am running into all kinds of questions restore my files.  In my view, there is a new application 'Photos' in El Capitan and not iPhoto.  How to restore my iPhoto on El Capitan library?  I had copied to my iPhoto files on my new hard drive but when I opened the Photos, nothing is there except the pictures of my photo stream.

  For some reason, I wasn't able to restore my files via Time Machine (don't know why), but I did a backup of my files on an external hard drive before erasing my hard drive, so I don't have those.

  I'd appreciate any guidance.  Thank you very much!!

• What is the advantage of using the Photos to iPhoto or Aperture?

  They are all the same?

  Photos is much better at sharing between devices (iPhone, iPad, Mac) that what is iPhoto. It's really good to keep all your photos accessible on all your devices; It's great if you take lots of photos with an iPhone and you want to "automagically" appear on your Mac. You can also synchronize all your changes between everything instantly.

  Adaptability of the photos is on par with iPhoto. I would like to say, it is a good replacement for iPhoto, as in almost every sense is as good or better.

  The opening is a very different beast. Organizational abilities Aperture and image adjustment capabilities (with curves, adjustments, etc.) were far beyond what the pictures offers today. If you are a serious amateur or pro photographer and openness really effect of leverage, and Photos is a big step backward. But for 95% of users, it probably isn't.
