photo library mobile problem drive ext

I moved my library on an external drive by following the instructions in the previous discussions, I copied the library on the external drive and then re-launched photos, hold down the ALT key then selected the library copied. Then, I put the copied as the library system and active re iCloud library library. but then I got a message saying I have available insufficient storage in iCloud. my library is close to 600 GB, and I'm on the 1 TB storage plan. Looks like photos trying to load the entire copied photo as a new library library. is it possible to stop this and to recognize the copied the original library, because I don't want to upgrade my storage iCloud simply to have 2 copies of everything in my library like I don't want to have to wait for 600 GB to download to get the library on the mac back in phase. I think I might just start a new library system on my mac and then download icloud, but I don't know if I'm doing this that I lose all the info from faces that I added to my existing library.

While we're on the subject of the faces there at - it a way to sync on devices that I have this library on my mac mini and also I have the photos app on my macbook pro synchronized in the same photo library and but iCloud account info "faces" does seem to not copy on iCloud, is this correct, and is it possible to synchronize the faces

Thank you

Mike

Don't you can't stop it and it will not download everything but is checkin to be sure, the library is in sync - nothing will be duplicated

Yes, you can start a new library and Yes you would lose your face albums but keep the tags face making re more quickly - identify and when OS X Sierra came out Photos will manage faces totally differently, but until the software is released, no one knows exactly what it will include or how it will migrate

  • iPhoto and photo library on hard drive storage

    I'm trying to free up space on my HD, and I've got this huge 'other' file.  Further investigation, it seems that he might actually reflect my pictures on my computer, despite photos apparently only 12.42 GB of space.

    But then my pictures folder contains 80,21 GB of data.  So, the 'library of Photo migrated' iPhoto said he composed 24.96 GB.  And the photo library makes 53,11 Go.  Can I delete the iPhoto library (is it a duplicate because it was migrated?)

    Yes. But you claim back so much space that you think that both applications share the masters BLAH common to both pictures.

  • I copied the photo library on external drive, and that one photo now shows despite the file being 70 GB.

    I had a library in iPhoto on an external HARD drive, and it worked. This is a disc plu so I decided to replace it with a new one that doesn't take much space on my desk. I copied the library through an external DRIVE to another drive, and it seemed to work. However, it now shows that a single photo despite being listed in the file manager as containing more than 70 GB.

    I explored a bit further in the file using finder and preview and found many files sorted by date. The photos seem to be all there, but they appear in iPhoto when I switched to this library. Always only one picture appears.

    I decided to convert the copied pictures from iPhoto library and it took a lot of time to convert, but the converted library always display just a single photo in Photos when I switch to this library.

    I could import all of them individually, but it's a big enough job, if there is a way to get libraries to work correctly.

    Any suggestions?

    We need the details - what format is the drive? How is it connected? It serves a TM backup Volume? How you copied the library itself? The library still works fine on the old drive? anything else you can tell us which could help a total strange who don't see you help?

  • How can I fix my iCloud photo library and iCloud drive?

    I noticed that all of my devices are stuck insofar as transfer or upload photos. Then, I went iCloud.com and get an error if I try to open the Photos or iCloud drive web app. I thought that others need to be affected, but my partner has no problem using iCloud.com for photos and player itself. So there's something really wrong with mine and I have no idea how to solve this problem in addition to call Apple.

    Does anyone have experience with this?

    How many devices is stuck in download, the number of photos were downloaded and how much remains to be downloaded and how long was like that.

  • Put my library on iCoud Drive

    Hello. I try to get my photo library of my Macbook on iCloud drive. I have about 10,000 photos on my Mac. So I go into the settings of my Photo and I can't see where to get the uploaded to iCloud photo library, but it's NOT iCloud Drive, right? And does not work even starts. If I delete something from my phone, it will remove also from the photo library of iCloud? I guess that Yes... I think it's just back to the photo gallery, correct?

    HOW can I get my pictures on iCloud drive? If they are there then I CAN remove my phone to free up space, right? I pay for extra storage and I have 1 picture out there. I don't know even how it got there. My photos will not automatically download to iCloud by car?

    Please and thank you.

    I think you might be confusing the two.  Your photos are on the iCloud photo library, however, iCloud Drive is supposed to imitate other competitors such as Google Reader, Dropbox, etc..

    You are right in your assumption, that is, if you delete a photo from your iPhone it will be automatically erased in the iCloud photo library as well, and that's because it's a synchronization service and sharing and not a true cloud based platform option backup.

    If you want to free up space on your phone, you have 2 options - ensure that "Optimize iPhone storage" is switched to slot your iCloud settings in the phone and the next option, consider using a third party application like Google Photos, Dropbox, Flickr to free up space on your phone.

  • System not on the iCloud photo library?

    Can I can put a photo library independent of the system on the disk to iCloud and therefore have access to it from multiple macs?

    If you put a photo library on iCloud drive and access it from another Mac synchronization between devices may corrupt the library. I've tested this with a few small test libraries, and none of them survived to synchronization, once I opened new during on iCloud drive.

    I would not risk with important photos.

  • I have an ERROR CODE 36 during the backup of my library of PHOTOS from one external drive to another. What is the best way to solve this problem? Also, what is someone used 'dot_clean '?

    I have a MacBook Pro that is primarily used for PHOTOS and use 2 external drives 1 for holding my PHOTO library and one for the back up. I have about 1 TB of data of photos. My back ups have worked perfectly since the establishment more than 12 months ago. However, I just got a CODE of ERROR - 36 problem which prevents the backup after that about 700 GB of data has been processed. I need to find a solution and I was wondering if anyone can advise me on that. I saw something called "dot_clean" on the web and I was wondering if it is safe to consider option.

    If the Photos or iPhoto is running, exit it and try the backup again.

    I use a PC and I used LR3. I'm a newcomer to LR, so patient with me! My problem is related to the import function.

    I have a photo library on an external hard drive. I've slowly been import previews of the photos selected from the library in my catalog, adding them during the import process - well. But now, I hit a problem. Another folder in my library contains several subfolders, each containing a number of photos (a mixture of RAW steals (naves) and jpg). I was importing found in my catalog each Subfile in turn, using the Add function, usually of the jpgs only from each Subfile. It works fine, until I reached a particular Subfile. For some reason when I try to import from it and select the secondary file as a Source, only the RAW (NEF) images appear in the preview pane (sorry, forgot the correct term for it!). I know that jpg files are in this auxiliary file on the external hard drive, because when I view its content in Windows, they are all there. But try as I can (choose the file under source, select the folder parent as a source, try to copy or move them, instead of adding them), nothing seems to work. Since they do not appear in the preview pane, I can't import them. It does appear that this a Subfile where the problem exists, but I don't see anything that is different from the others (names of files under all use the same structure - yyyy-mm-dd_custom name, and pictures in all subfolders are adopting the same denomination structure too - yyyy-mm-dd_sequential number_custom name.) NAVE/JPG. So what I am doing wrong? Any ideas please.

    It is possible that the images in this particular subfolder were taken in your camera in RAW + JPEG.  If so, you will need to go to preferences under the general tab and make sure the box "processing JPEG files files next to raw as separate photos" is checked.

    However, assuming that this is the case, there is really no reason to import the JPEG file if you already have the RAW file.

  • Problems loading old library on external drive to new iTunes

    Issue. Recently, I reformatted and updated my pc for Windows 10, and I used an older version of iTunes (don't know which one it was) in time compared to what is currently available. I used to keep all of my music stored (via iTunes) on another internal hard drive which still exists on my computer. Windows recognizes it, and iTunes managed folders.

    The problem is that I downloaded the latest version of iTunes, and while he did load I had on iCloud, I feel I'm missing a few items that were in the library of hard drive. I tried to run iTunes now shift to select another library, but the iTunes folder managed had no info. The only things on the outside folder are:

    -Automatically add to iTunes

    -Books

    Games - iPod

    -Mobile Applications

    -Movies

    -Music

    -Voice recorder

    -.iTunes Preferences.plist

    I did my best to back up everything on my C: primary so I can have additional folders, however I do not know if this where is the actual library for the filling of the iTunes file, or if it is a new feature released in a newer version. I used to make everything perfectly until what I changed in my phone Samsung Galaxy S6 now broken (about a year) I'm give up and return to iPhones. My last being a 5s, my other being a 7 when he left for me.

    What is the easiest way I can make sure that the entire library is loaded in iTunes without causing cloud conflicts duplicates and/or a VERY long process of re - copy thousands of songs?

    Take a look at make a library of portable split. I hope you can find the iTunes folder which will have been in the C:\Users\ < user > \Music\iTunes before you reformatted. If you shift-Start-iTunes and choose the inside .itl file and the drive letter for the press pack has not changed, then it should work correctly. If not, you might want to put all the components in the correct form on media drive and then fix broken with my tips links to Re: iTunes can't find music (suddenly).

  • I can tell iMovie 10.1.2 that my photo library is located on an external drive?

    Hello, since the 10.1.2 update my library of Photos became invisible to iMovie.

    Other threads indicate clear that it shouldn't be.

    I think that the reason is that it is on an external drive, but iMovie does not detect.

    Is that what I can do about it? My internal drive does not have a sufficient space.

    Your photo library is designated as the library systems? In preferences/general pictures you can see the location of your photo library opened and select it in the library system. If it's already the library system, using as the library system will be grayed out. The library on an external drive should not be a problem for iMovie.

  • Library of photos on external hard drive: not possible repair

    Hello world

    Today, when I tried to open my library of Photos, Photos crashed. After I have reopened, Photos asked that the library must be repaired. I started who, but after 2%, Photos crashed with "an unexpected error has occurred." A restart does not solve this problem. I still can't view the contents of the library package.

    I saw on messages earlier (for example, 10.10.3 Photos can not repair permissions), the output of this Terminal command can reveal the underlying error:

    find ~ $TMPDIR...------(-+ flags sappnd, uappnd, schg, uchg o! - user $UID o! - perm-600 o - acl-) 2 >/dev/null | WC-l

    Outputs this line in my case: 4471

    Please note that I'm storing my photo library, including all images imported into a separate external hard drive connected via USB.

    So perhaps the command above (where I'm not sure what it does) may not be to give the required output to track down the problem.

    Following the crash of the pictures, here is the output of the Console:

  • move the external drive photo library to iCloud

    Hello

    I just bought the option 1 TB, for my 300 GB library. With my MBP, I use an external hard drive, but I won't use it... So I sent the 300 GB, but if I start the Photo, there's still the library on disk external HARD... is not possible to use iCloud as the main library?

    Thank you very much.

    Fred of France

    iCloud library is essentially a synchronization services to keep your library in iCloud as centralized storage and reference to synchronize all volumes.  If you change a photo to one of your libraries on one of your devices, the changes will be updated in iCloud and synchronize all of your devices that are synchronizing with iCloud photo library. All libraries on all synchronized devices will always display the same pictures, montages, albums, metadata.

    So you will need a library t sync with your Mac.  To save storage, you can use the "Optimize Mac storage" option in the preferences to iCloud. Then the image original high-resolution fies will be stored only in icloud and your Mac will replace them with smaller and optimized, versions if the storage is not enough for the version high resolution.

    I have OS X El Capitan 10.11.6

    Thanks for the help

    as the pictures has no events which is not possible - and you cannot copy to a library of photos to another library - you can export to a library and import in another library or you can use PowerPhotos to move photos between libraries

    What exactly do you have and exactly what you want to accomplish?
