Photo app

can I use the Photos app, exclusively, using images from my hard drive?  can I keep my images drive separate from those taken by my iPhone (and then placed in iCloud)

Hello Donald,.

You can create a separate hard disk iPhoto library and then keep that by default on your computer for photos of iCloud.

Let me know if you have any other questions!

  • My photos and videos are not in chronological order, when I export the Photos app

    Hello. When I export my photos and videos from the Photos app on my iMac all the photos and videos are not in order. I need all the photos in good standing - I need to export about 5 000 pictures of the application in order for a meeting next week! Help, please!

    Ethan.

    This is not photo - it is a function of the viewing program (probably the finder) - once the photos are exprted form pictures you can see then in different ways which you control, Photos does not - by the finder you can view by name of son, byt several dates, by file size, etc.

    Usually, the best way to accomplish what you want is to export using the names of batch file numbeing and then sort by file name in the program viewing

  • Photos App: sort out the problem with the album "all photos".

    photos App: problem of sorting with the album "all photos".

    I activated my iCloud library and as little shared albums.

    In 'Moments' pictures are sorted right (as), but when I go to Album > all photos,.

    so, I see a lot of fotos mixed up. In the option, I see that "all photos" are sorted by date 'added' that still does not make sense...

    It's annoying because when I access photos (iOS) to some 3rd - party - app, it does not show 'moments' but albums like "all pictures" that is not sorted...

    Thanks for the help in advance

    The albums predefined in the Photos on a Mac are sorted differently, in order to have different ways to access your photos.

    • The sight of Photos with Moments and Collections is sorted by the date of Capture.
    • The album 'All the Photos' is sorted by the date that you imported photos, not dates, that the photos were taken.

    Albums that you set yourself can be sorted by title or date of capture. So you can set your own album "my photo all ' as a smart album (file > new Smart Album) by using a rule 'Date's after... ', for example:

    This smart album will contain took all the pictures taken since January 1, 1000 and can by sorted according to the date of capture.

  • Why the iPhone 6plus will not open photos app on mac pro for IOS 10 update.

    Why the iPhone 6plus will not open photos app on mac pro for IOS 10 update.
    A message appears on the iphone asks you to trust the computer it is attached (mac pro 10.10.5)

    You type 'Confidence' and nothing happens. the photos on mac app publishes this message.

    This Mac not yet have been granted access to the media on 'my iPhone '. To import media to this Mac, press 'Trust' on 'my iPhone '. You must first unlock the device.

  • Photos - removal of a photo App question

    I'm about to finally upgrade iPhoto Photos on our mid 2010 MacBook Pro. My intention is to keep a copy of the complete resolution of each photograph on our MacBook Pro by enabling the option 'Download this Mac originals '. I think reading on the Photos all of my photos & videos will be synchronized between my MacBook, iPhone and iPad Pro if I select to use iCloud Photo library functionality and that if I delete a photo on my iPad, for example, it will remove this photo in iCloud and so on all my devices connected. My question is the original photograph display full resolution will also be deleted on the MacBook Pro? Reason for the request is I wish I could use my iPad Pro through my entire photo library and bring order to the top (remove bad photographs, etc.), but if these photographs I remove in iCloud by using my iPad remain on my MacBook Pro so I'll have to do it again on my MacBook Pro... so I would be wasting my time to do using my iPad. Thanks for any advice.

    Finally recommend the Mac OS to Sierra de El Captain upgrade before upgradingto the Photos app?

    Thank you

    Brian

    Yes, I understand form everywhere Deleting removes everything for everyone but I haven't checked it - Léonie done much more work on his iPad and may have checked this

    As for the upgrade - I see no reason to do it in two steps - I just back up and go to Sierra then start leaning Phtops (this is a new program with a learning curve and new workflow - if you think of it like an iPhoto update you will be frustrated because he's not - is a completely new application)

  • Photos edited in Photos App is missing after upgrade to MacOS Sierra

    After updating to Mac OS Sierra, all my versions published of my photos is missing.

    Updated to:

    MacOS (10.12) Sierra

    App photos (Version 2.0 (445.1.15))

    It is said:

    -Update of El Capitan Sierra.

    -When the update, I started App Photos and update the library (260 GB).

    -A took the Photos App in the meantime round.

    -After all the thumbnails update was missing, but the pictures would be accessible by clicking on them.

    -Photos App must rebuild now all the thumbnails, but the photos I edited is still missing and even can not be seen by clicking on it (like the non-edited).

    -The missing files are a .jpeg and raw (.nef) from Nikon files.

    Have you tried:

    -Existing photo editing works

    -Edit photos (previous edition) missing persons, sometimes shows the missing picture, but it is not always a new tile.

    Any suggestions of how to make the pictures to update modified pictures?

    Did you turn on your mac to remove duplicates or similar cleaning applications?  Some cleaning tools are not safe to use.

    How do you change the photo in question? She has been published with adjustments to Photos or have you used an extension of photo editing?

    -Edit photos (previous edition) missing persons, sometimes shows the missing picture, but it is not always a new tile.

    Have you tried to take pictures with missing tiles to the original version in the control panel?

    And pictures can be exported from Photos or you get an error message?

  • The people in the Photos app clock?

    The people in the Photos app supposed to sync between Mac OS and iOS? Is this an element broken or not supported? Someone please tell me that Apple does not expect me to organize people over and over again on all my devices? That would be quite ridiculous. I've never used the faces feature in previous versions for this reason.

    Unfortunately not.

    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 can't test on iOS devices, because only my iPhone can be updated to iOS 10, not the iPad and iPod touch, but the iPhone will not sync with my Mac people.

  • iPhone 5 photos app - missing features

    Hi Aldan,

    I see that you send messages because you have noticed that the people feature is missing from your iPhone 5. It's actually expected behavior; the people feature is not available on the iPhone 5. Take a look at this Web site for more information:

  • Update iOS10 to post the photo app shows for 2 GB with no photos

    After updating to iOS 10

    the photo app is 2 GB. There is no photos or recorded videos, but that's still 2 GB

    Hi 38sanjudas,

    I understand that you see 2 GB of space used by your Photos app, despite not having anything that is stored. I know it's important to get the most out of your storage space, so I'm happy to help you.

    It is important to note that when you delete a photo on your iPhone, it is not permanently deleted and will go to the album recently removed in case it needs to be recovered. If it is not emptied, he can fill and take a storage capacity as well. You can learn more about this in our article here:

    Delete photos on your iPhone, iPad and iPod touch - Apple Support

    Permanently delete photos

    If you want to permanently delete your pictures or your videos within 30 days, you can remove them from the album recently deleted. When you delete a photo in this album, you can't get it back.

    1. Open the Photos app and go to the Albums tab.
    2. Open the recently deleted album and press Select.
    3. Click on each photo or video that you want to permanently delete.
    4. Press DELETE.

    Thank you for using communities Support from Apple. See you soon!

  • How can I disable People and Places in Photos.app@iOS10?

    I frequently get photos under NDA contract, not allowing any electronic assessment content photo due to the protection of data. Thus our admin has stopped any update of iOS10, because the new Photos.app of iOS10 seems to have no switch to disable extraction faces to the 'People' file or folder locations "places".

    How can I disable these processes demons or can be sure no processing happens on photos?

    Thanks for your help maintain our aircraft delivered by Apple and avoid spending somewhere else!

    Analysis of face detection is automatic and cannot be disabled.

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

    Photos scans your library of photos for the faces of the people and adds faces more frequently found in the album of the people. You can assign names to the discoveries of Photos of people, add people appear less frequently, people mark as Favorites and discovers memories that contain specific people. The more photos you have, more the first scan takes.

    You can only hide the detected people and refrain from naming people.

    The album places creates collections of photos and videos based on the place where they were taken.

    This example uses the photos embedded GPS tags. You would have to strip the EXIF in the photos tbefore tags you import them to avoid this problem.

  • Live photo showing 2 different files in photos app on mac!

    Hello

    I recently imported photos from my iphone to my Mac using photos for OSX app. But after graduating successfully imported it shows me two different elements i.e. photo itself & a short video. So for my 300 live photos it's show me 300 photos and 300 videos.

    So why it shows two different files, I suppose, that it should show only direct photo because it shows on my iPhone.

    I also tried to repair the library command to open the photos app, but it did not work. Help, please!

    Thank you

    Live webcam picture is two files, a picture and a video - what it is

    where are you seeing the two files?

    If you really have OS X 10.10.1 and Photos 1.0 as you say then that's the problem - you are updated to eleven or twelve behind and these updates included support Live Photo - you must upgrade to El Captain OS X 10.11.6 and Photos 1.5

  • the Photos App in Mac Book Air how hide

    My friends:

    I want to hide the photos app on my MacBook Air (biblioteca fotos) see attached.

    OK, these pictures are in my iCloud with a security copy, allows you to delete these photos from the photos (photographs) (MacBook Air) app disappear icloud?

    Another question about it; How can put key for photo (biblioteca foto) app in my MacBook Air to access than me?

    Thank you my friends.

    You can't hide it, but you can change its location.

    If you want to keep it private use a different account for your photos and store them in the folder "Pictures" of this account so they will be inaccessible to anyone not connected to this account (unless they have administrator rights and change this folder policy)

    third question is similar to lock the application only you can access. Short to install on a suppression device, you take with you, or install it on a folder in your account that nobody else can use you will probably need a 3rd party app like Mac App blocker, which is supported by the developer, not by Apple.

  • Help needed on the export of the Photo App

    I'm a photo hobbyest with thousands of photos stored in my Mac using the Photos app. I already saved them on Time Machine and iCloud. However, I try to upload some on an external hard drive but can't.  The Photo app continues to CHANGE the resolution of my images when I export them.  Here is what happens...

    • I have uploaded a JPEG of 5 MB in the Photo app earlier this year.
    • Now, I'm ready to take a copy of this picture on my external hard drive.
    • If I just move the original photo to the Photo app on my counter top, the resolution GOES from 5MB to 2.1 MB.
    • If I export 'The Original unmodified' I lose all the changes that I made in the Photo app.
    • If I export the 'High' quality jpeg image, it DROPS my resolution of 2.1 MB.
    • If I export the photo to the "Maximum" quality jpeg, it INCREASES my resolution to 14.3 MB!
    • I found NO WAY to download my original photo size!

    Question... How to export or copy an image from within the app of the Photo on an external hard drive with the resolution of the EXACT SAME as it is?

    Thank you!

    You first need to understand the resolution - the file size is not resolution - the resolution concerns the dimensions in pixels of the image - file to a JPEG file size is determined by the compression you choose - compression of the image does not change the dimensions in pixels of all - compression removes the donnΘes form the pictures and all JPEG in theory is inferior finial an uncompressed image as TIFF - but for practically all the uses, it does not matter

    When you export a modified version of the photo you create a new file that contains the image and the size of the files is determined by the selections you make and has no resolution at all to the original file

    Photos has limited control over file size - ir you want a file size, then export a copy of very high quality (maximum or even a TIFF uncompressed) and use another program that gives you more control to compress in the JPEG compression you want

    But at the end of the day the size of the file is really no different and it is very likely that the big JPEG will give you the same results as an uncompressed TIFF
