Managing storage of iPhone for photos

IPhone 5 s of the my wife says it's almost out of storage (I had to delete the photos and videos and erase the recent album deleted to take some shots). It uses iOS 8 with iCloud photo library and optimize storage is enabled. Can I remove images from the phone and not lose them in iCloud?

Thank you

Michel

PS: storage iCloud still has nearly 16 GB available.

  • Should be opened on mac or iPhone for photos to download to sync and photo library photos iCloud?

    I installed iCloud photo library, and I downloaded all of my photos and albums. My question or problem is that when I do rather small changes, i.e. Add one to five photos to an album, he seems to take an extremely long time before changes are visible on the photos on my iPhone.

    That is the Macbook Air, or the iPhone, must not sleep for downloading to take place? Should photos be opened on each device so that he can get?

    Thanks for your help,

    Hello

    On the iPhone, it must either:

    • be in use (not necessarily in the Photos app)
    • or be in mode 'sleep', plugged in and connected to wifi

    On mac, you must have the application open and the mac for not being in mode 'sleep'. OS X Powernap Feature does not support the iCloud photo library (I've done a request for comments)

  • Folders of the iPhone for photos

    All my photos were in a folder that is listed as all the pictures, as I assume that all are.  When I started to create folders and I put the pictures in there records, I deleted them folder all Photos so that they do not duplicate and take place on my phone. At this point, I started to notice those I delete in the folder all Photos disappeared folders that I had put them.  So my question is, should I stay in the photos folder all independently all the images? IF this is the case, what is the point of creating individual folders?

    Yes, they must stay in the folder of pictures if you want on your device. Creating separate folders does not duplicate photos, it organizes just pictures in the folder of all the Photos in a different way.

  • Why the iCloud iPhone backup Photo lib is so great?

    Settings-> General-> storage & use-> iCloud iCloud, manage-> backup storage, this iPhone-> watch photo library to use 2.9 GB.

    I have only a few pictures in Photos.

    Settings-> General-> storage & iCloud use-> storage, manage storage-> Photos & camera shows use 1.4 MB.

    What else is included in the backup of the library that makes it so great?

    My config: iPhone 6, 16 MB, IOS 9.2.1

    Settings-> iCloud-> options for Photos:

    iCloud library picture OFF

    My Photo Stream WE

    Upload Photos of burst off the COAST
    iCloud Photo Sharing ON

    I deleted the backup, turned iCloud backup on again., and did a manual backup that seems to have solved the problem. The iPhone backup uses about 100 MB now that is what I expected. I'm still puzzled why he thought he needed 3 GB to save the picture before Lib.

  • Turn off iCloud for photos

    If I disable iCloud on my iphone for photos will lose my pictures and my videos? He tells me I can copy everything first, but I don't have enough space on my phone to make a copy.

    Of course, if you have not registered on your computer, then when you remove icloud they will be gone - what else could possibly happen?

    Before you stop iCloud you should download all the photos that you said

  • My phone 16 gig is constantly low on storage, well all I can see to manage storage is < 2 GB of music, mail, photos and applications.

    My phone 16 gig is constantly low on storage, well all I can see to manage storage is < 2 GB of music, mail, photos and applications.

    Open iTunes on your computer, and then connect your device to your computer. In iTunes, select your device. You will see a bar that shows how much storage your iOS content uses, divided by type of content. Roll your mouse over a type of content, as well as other applications, to find more information. If storage is not yet put in correspondence to the top, then back up the phone via iTunes or iCloud, wipe the phone to the factory settings and restore your information. That should erase all ghosts who gets up on the device.

  • copy an album of photos 'photos' for iphone (4 photos)

    Hello, I used to use iPhoto to specify an album in iPhoto that I want to appear on my iPod.  Now I have a MacBook Pro and an iPhone 6, but iPhoto is now Photos. How can I get a photo album on my Macbook pictures appear on my iPhone.  I don't want to copy the whole photo, just a few pictures library.  Sorry to bother you here, but I searched in vain a previous debate at this point.  Also, I tried implementing iCloud, but it seems that the Photo has is no longer a simple function like iPhoto album sharing, regardless of iCloud or not iCloud.  (Also, I have trouble with wi - fi because of the limitations of my particular ISP so that cable would be preferable).  Thank you!

    Is there a default value for the color management in PSE10? Beautiful photos from iPhoto, but blur with elements. I need help with this before as I consider that the upgrade to PSE13 and beyond.

    Printing which forms an angle seems ok, but one that is horizontally seems faded, incomplete.

    I was wondering if I saved a layer somewhere and set it as a default value.

    If you group the layers, you will be left with a single layer, thus spreading your concern.

    Suggest that you do the following:

    1. Make sure you have the latest drivers for your printers
    2. Reset the default preferences.

  • How are they managing storage Flash on my Macbook Pro?

    Hello, I have storage problems with my macbook pro, simply because I miss. I went through and eliminated a lot of my videos and photos because that's mainly what I use this for, but my storage is full. How to clear up the flash storage?

    For the other category in the display of information storage, see this support article. If the display appears to be inaccurate, try to rebuild the Spotlight index of the boot volume ("Macintosh HD", unless you have given it a different name.)

    Empty the trash if you don't have it already done. If you use iPhoto, emptying his trash internal everything first:

    ▹ iPhoto empty the trash

    In pictures:

    ▹ Show of the recently deleted ▹ file delete all

    Do the same thing in other applications like Aperture, with an internal feature of the trash. Then, restart the computer. Temporarily, which will free up space.

    According to the documentation from Apple, you need at least 9 GB of free space on the boot volume (as shown in the Infolog) for normal operation, not the mythical 10%, 15% or any percentage. You also need enough space to allow the growth of the data over. There is little or no advantage in terms of performance to get more free space than the minimum Apple recommends. Storage space you'll never use is wasted space.

    When Time Machine backs up a Mac laptop, some free space will be used to make a snapshots the, who are backups of deleted files recently. The space occupied by the local snapshots is declared as available by the Finder and should be considered as such. In the view of storage of the information system, snapshots appear them as backups. The snapshots are deleted automatically when they expire or when free space becomes less than a certain level. You don't need to usually and should not, remove snapshots them yourself. If you have followed the bad advice to disable snapshots the running a shell command, you may have ended up with a large amount of data in the other category. Ask for instructions in this case.

    See this support article for some easy ways to free up storage space. A common waste of space is old backups iTunes to mobile devices. As shown in this support article, select the devices tab in the iTunes preferences window, select the backup that you want to remove and click on delete the backups. Keep at least a backup of each device you use yet.

    You can, if you wish, use a tool such OmniDiskSweeper (ODS) to explore the volume and discover what is take up space. You can also delete files with it, but not unless you don't know you know what you remove and that all data is stored safely. This means that you have several backups, not one. Note that the ODS only works with OS X 10.8 ("Mountain Lion") and later versions.

    IMPORTANT: This comment is neither a recommendation nor an endorsement of any third party software. You should always do your own research to determine if the unknown software is safe and useful. Don't take the word of anyone, including mine.

    Deletion of files inside a photo library or iTunes will damage the library. Such a library should be changed within the application that created it. It is the same for e-mail files.

    Go further than if the problem is not resolved by the steps above.

    ODS cannot see the whole file system when you run simply by double-clicking; He sees only the files that you have permission to read. To see everything, you must run it as root.

    Back up all the data now.

    Install the application in the Applications folder as usual. Quit it runs.

    Triple-click any where in the text line below on this page to select, then copy the selected text in the Clipboard by pressing Control-C key combination.

    security execute-with-privileges /A*/OmniDiskSweeper.app/*/M*/* 2>&-

    Launch the Terminal application integrated in one of the following ways:

    ☞ Enter the first letters of his name in a Spotlight search. Select from the results (it should be at the top).

    ☞ In the Finder, select go utilities ▹ of menu bar or press the combination of keys shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.

    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.

    Paste in the Terminal window by pressing command + V. You will be asked for your login password.

    The application window opens behind other open windows. When you scan a volume, the window will finally show all files in all folders, sorted by size. It may take a few minutes for the app to finish scanning.

    I do not recommend that you make a habit of doing. Do not delete anything as root. If something should be deleted, make sure you know what it is and how it got there, and then remove by safer alternatives. If in doubt, leave it alone or ask for advice.

    When you are finished with the app, he quit and also to leave Terminal.

  • Manage storage to iCloud

    My iCloud storage is almost full.  When I go in managing storage in System Preferences/iCloud, I have 1 GB in iMovie.  When I go to iMovie on iCloud.com, it has no icon in iMovie.

    How can I find on what is stored in iMovie.  I can't determine the iMovie application and since there is no iMovie on iCloud.com icon, it doesn't seem to be a way to know what are the files/folders.  I don't want to delete the documents and data until I know if it's something I want to discard or save.

    Hello DaveH123!
