Photo - deletion of photos of Photo

My hard is filled with the largest amount of space occupied by the photos, I transferred all the photos on a backup drive, using the export feature in the Photo menu.

At this point will delete the photos in the Photo actually erase them from the hard drive?

Best regards and thanks,

What version of the operating system and photos you have? You have a managed library or library referenced? You are migrating from iPhoto to Photos and if you have done is always the iPhoto library on disk?

If you are up to date (current software is OS X 10.11.6 and Photos 1.5) with a managed library and no iPhoto library and then deleting Photos (select photos and press control & delete) will move the photos in the album deleted recently - they will be removed from system within 30 days or when you remove form them the recently deleted albums which ever comes first

  • How to delete photos stored in macbook air any of iPhone

    I am on my Macbook Air storage as whenever I backed up my iPhone, I also chose to "import" all the new photos in the iPhone.

    I think this is redundant with as backup iTune keeps pictures of the iPhone (from thousands of them since 2007)!

    Now my question is: How can I safely delete all photos imported from the iPhone and keep the rest that I took with a digital camera? It removes the original photos in iPhone too next time think I synchronize?

    Thank you all.

    We need the details - what version of the operating system, IOS and iPhoto and how you import you MBA?

  • How can I delete all but 2015 to 2016 nigh (ios10.0.2) iPhone photos to free up space, after synchronizing all photos on my Mac (Yosemite 10.10.5)?

    How can I remove all but 2015 to 2016 photos from my iPhone (ios10.0.2) for free space, after synchronizing all the photos on my mac (Yosemite 10.10.5) computer?

    The fastest way I can think of would be to go to the Albums, go to all the Photos tab, highlight the photo you want to delete and press 'Select' in the upper right corner. Place your finger on the first complete line, you want to remove (if you have pictures that do not have a complete row that you want to remove these institutions, select them individually first), slide your finger on the line so that they are all selected, and then slide up so that it starts automatically at your old photos of scrolling. Once the photos you want to delete are selected, press the trash in the lower right. This will move them to your album "Recently deleted", then they will be always on your phone for 30 days, unless you remove them. If you are sure that you have already backed up these photos and does not accidentally still photos you want, feel free to remove them.

    And if you're advising me to download something, no malware or viruses please.

    If you have enabled iCloud photo library, that's how he wanted to work. iCPL synchronizes all changes and actions, including deletions, across all your devices and computers.

    The only way for you to restore these files is from a backup, preferably on your computer.

  • Is it possible to recover deleted photos from icloud?

    Stupidly, I didn't know that the iCloud storage plan did not provide for storage.  When I backed up my phone, it is cleared of my photos from my account.  Is it possible to recover?  Any way to go back to a previous backup?  I don't even have a deleted folder recently on my photos page.

    OK, something added here. You said that when you have backed up your device, it erased your pictures.

    When you do an iCloud (or iTunes) backup, it backs up everything on your device. It does nothing for the data on the device. Thus, your photos were eliminated in a backup. Do you import your photos in a library on your computer? The process makes you wonder if you want to delete the photos?

    We need a complete description, step by step, what you were doing, and what happened.

  • Photo delete iCloud and re - download

    Hello, need help here...

    iCloud has been "playing" with my photo albums, some albums have disappeared as have some pictures.

    All started because I have iCloud enabled in all my devices. Somehow whenever I connect my iPhone or iPad for Photos of the computer continues to display the images that are on my devices, but not on my computer, I tried to manually import but they keep "showing" and which they occupy a considerable amount of storage on my iPad and iPhone, up to 12 GB.

    So, I decided to delete all THE pictures of my devices, previous backup and leave only the pictures on my computer. I then turned off the iCloud for all devices and the computer manually entered in the 'cloud' over the internet and discovered that in fact on the cloud, there are the missing missing image albums. Then...

    I need to delete images "iCloud" as the cloud and the re - upload the pictures that are on my macbook.

    How (or how should) do that?

    Thanks for any help that anyone can give

    Go to iCloud.com/Photos using a computer. Click to select the Photos, select the first, then with the SHIFT key, select the last one. Then click on the Recycle Bin.

  • photos version 1.5 "delete after import" is no longer an option

    Can someone tell me where the option of deleting the photos after the importation of the iphone is spent in the latest version? I can take more than 100 photos per day for work and remove them manually from the phone after import is a major pain in the *.

    Thank you

    He did not go - when you connect the front phone import you can check the deletion after import box to the right of the phone in the picture source list

    However it is not a workflow recommended as an inappropriate phone accident or the Mac may lose pictures - it is much better import and make sure that the photos are safe and that at least a complete backup cycle and then use Image Capture to remove

  • What is happening in the original file of the photo when I import it in Photos and I have the "Delete after import" box checked?

    What is happening in the original file of the photo when I import it in Photos and I have the "Delete after import" box checked?

    When organizing photos for Photos for Mac app, I find that the Photos makes "copies" of files within the library of Photos and must reference a file if your settings are such that you do not copy the original files in the Photos app.

    Trying to manage the disk space for the Macbook Pro.

    The delete after import is available only when you import a device - a camera, card, an iPhone, but not when you import files from a folder on the system drive.

    You can delete the local image files of your system drive yourself, once you have imported the Photos and they were copied in the photo library.

    I would never use the option "delete after Import. The files will be deleted until you can check if the files have been imported correctly. If you find out later, that some of the imported files are corupted and illegible, it will be repeated o toolate import, because the files have been deleted from the device. Or worse, if pictures should plant a reason any during the import, all the pictures will be lost, if you have enabled "delete after import.

    The usual method of deleting an application, by dragging its icon from the Applications folder to the trash, doesn't seem to work with photos. I want to remove it from my computer because it is constantly in my way when I'm working with images in other software. Any suggestions?

    OSX 10.11

    Photos v1.5

    You cannot delete it because it is part of the operating system

    You can sop it opens automatically - so that a camera is connected in Photos, clear the check box to the right of the unit that says opening the Photos when the camera is connected

    And to report to Apple - they need to provide a simple system for you to work with the photo of your choice software - http://www.apple.com/feedback/photos.html
