Photos deleted from the iPhone also remove Photos on Mac

I gave my granddaughter a new MacBook for Christmas (she had a PC before). She has figured out how to get all the photos of his iPhone in the library of images on his Mac (sorry, not sure what it's called). But now, if it removes a picture on his phone, it is removed from the library on the Mac (she likes to keep the storage space vacated on the phone but obviously wants to save the photos on the Mac). I'm trying to help solve this problem. Help?

She must have enabled library Icloud, which actually moves all his images in the cloud of apple and makes it accessible to all devices. When you use the items in a 'cloud', they are only on the device, so deleting a picture of any device removes the cloud and, therefore, of all devices.

It's the way it was designed.

When you configure the library to icloud, you have an option to OPTIMIZE IPHONE STORAGE and this drastically reduces the storage space on the iphone in my case, 17 GB of photos in the photo library of clouds currently absorb only 1.8 GB on iphone when optimized in this way.

  • Imported photos and delete from the iPhone are confused - I can fix?

    I imported the photos taken with the Photos app on my iPhone 5, with "Remove items after importing" lit. But in pictures the pictures are not good: the photo was cropped in half, if that makes sense, with this half duplicated and that appears twice and a thin line grey narrow between duplicates. And a tiny tiny version of the picture properly, appears at the top of this thin grey line. Thus, for example, that if a photo needs to be "XO", it's rather "XX", with a tiny version of XO appearing at the top of the grey line in the middle of the XX.

    This did not happen for all the photos I just imported, only about half of them; and the system then told me some pictures could not be imported due to an error. I then tried to import the remaining pictures once again, and they are fine.

    The originals have been removed from the iPhone - can I somehow fix those images? Does anyone else have this problem?

    And I guess that's a warning against "remove items after the import. I've never had a problem with this before.

    Thanks in advance!

    Are only thumbnails in Explorer corrupted, or the photo also shared in two, if you click on it to enlarge?

    If the enlarged photo is fine, try to recreate thumbnails by rotating the photo back. You can select several photos at once and click on ⌘R, the ⌥⌘R.

    Try to open the photo in edit mode and try to "Return to the original", if it is available.

    You have a recent backup of iTunes to your iPhone? The pictures of the camera should be included in the backup, if you don't use icloud.

    If you can not fix the pictures imported by turning, try to restore your iPhone to the latest backup to restore the camera.

  • notes from the iPhone will not sync for Mac

    I use iCloud-based limited - find my iPhone, iCloud Drive, reminders, Notes, and news. Settings for iCloud shows these three elements under tension. Unfortunately, Notes does not sync to Mac now or never. Settings for iCloud shows that the Mac and the iPhone are connected to iCloud. I don't know if new is sync for iCloud, as there is no icon for it on the web page of iCloud.

    In settings iCoud on the Mac, it is not a single entry in notes even if there are 15 different notes on the phone which are changed daily on the lists. On the phone, there is a 0 for the notes in iCloud.

    What iCloudService do you use?

    • If the iPhone and the Mac are synchronized with iCloud photo library, removal of the photos from the iPhone will remove them from the Mac as well.  iCloud photo library is a synchronization service that will ensure that you see the same pictures on all devices.

  • IOS app in iTunes 12 deleting will remove them from the iPhone as well (iOS 9)

    Then... I have not been able to find an answer to this question and I'm a little paranoid to try it with so many apps on my iPhone 6.

    I am currently using iTunes 12.3 and iOS 9.2. I have about 60 GB of apps on my years iTunes download, and if I deleted a lot on my iOS devices they remain on iTunes. It takes too much space on my MacBook and the computer storage space is so low that my iPhone won't even upward.

    In short, that is the question in detail. I want to remove ALL applications from iTunes, with no desire to relocate, BUT you don't want that on my iPhone apps should be deleted. I tried this earlier and as soon as I hit him "sync" the bar at the bottom which shows what takes up the amount of space on the device deletes all applications (which indicates they will be deleted from the iPhone?). Of course, being paranoid I immediately stopped synchronization. My question is if this will actually delete the apps on my phone as well or they will remain as they are?

    Appreciate any help!

    Thank you!

    iTunes stopped copy of apps to your device in your library, and remove an application from your library should no longer cause deletion of your device. However, any application that you have downloaded from the App Store can be removed by the holders of rights without notice at any time, so that if you delete your local copies there is a risk that at some point you lose access to a preferred application.

  • How to remove Photos from the iPhone/iPad/iCloud and no pictures

    How to take a photo with my iPhone/iPad, allow it to synchronize with Photos on my Mac via iCoud, then delete from my iPhone/iPad/iCloud and removes any Photos on Mac? I want to save the photo on your computer and save space on small devices?

    I keep seeing articles on the iCloud market turn but it seems the photos all return on the devices once restarted. I want to iCloud on use as a conduit to get the photos to my computer, not as a large storage space. I want the Photos app on my Mac where all the photos are filled and stored and choose those which is left each device.

    Right now they are all in the pictures on the Mac, but I'm worried if I remove it from my iPhone/iPad that they will disappear from Photos on the Mac. I don't understand the new Photos app with all the missing features of iPhoto.

    Thank you!

    You can not that's not how works iCloud photo library - it is not a conduit but a total synchronization service whose entire raison d'etre is to keep libraries connected identical - all changes made on any device (addition, deletion or modification) are made on all devices. For devices with limited memory, using optimized photos

    If this isn't what you want then use another service - USB import, iTunes sync, MyPhotoStream for example each do different things and everyone can move photos from one device to another

    And Photos lack a lot of features iPhoto form - in fact much more features than iPhoto including iCloud library there like a bigger and better editing capability and better external editing capability and so on

  • How to remove photos from a photo stream on the iPhone, but keep them on Mac?

    Hello world

    I tried to find the answer to my question in the FAQ, but so far I've failed. I'd be really grateful if someone could help me.

    I have an iPhone (5s) and a MacBook Air (13 inch, early 2015). I have not activated the iCloud photo library, but I use the photo gallery on both devices. Because I often take pictures with my phone, I'm running out of memory space on my phone.

    In regards to this and photo stream feature, I have several questions:

    1. If I want to make more room on my iPhone, I have to delete some pictures. Assuming that I do this, these pictures are deleted from my Mac after 30 days?

    2. How can I remove photos from my iPhone without deleting them from my Mac (because I turned on the feature of photo stream)?

    3. If I import the photos from my iPhone in the Photos App on my Mac (when it is connected to my Mac with a USB cable), they are 'safe '?

    I hope that my questions are understandable and I would appreciate all the help I can get.

    Thanks to all and best wishes,

    Lars

    1. no - as long as you have allowed MyPhotoStream to import photos - if they have not been imported yet then they will be gone

    2. after importation of pictures you can delete them from the iPhone, and they will remain in Photos of the moments / pictures

    3 - Yes - but if you import several times, you will have duplicates - you should use USB or PHM import

  • Remove photos from the iphone after import

    Hi, I'm new on this but I can't find an answer by reading the previous posts.

    I always was able to import my photos and click the button "erase after importing" and my photos would be removed from my phone, but recently it tells me there is an error during this operation and the pictures are still on my phone using a lot of memory. Anyone know why this feature no longer works? I'm really not what although it is complicated with my pc, everything is usually automatically when I plug in my phone. Can someone give advice?

    Thank you

    You have iCloud library enabled on the iPhone? (in settings > iCloud > Photos & camera)?

    So you can't delete photos from the iPhone, because they are actually stored in iCloud and only in reverse on the iPhone.

    Disable the iCloud photo library, if you want to download the pictures manually by USB.  But be sure, that optimize storage is disabled and all the pictures were downloaded again icloud before disabling iCloud photo library.

    If you use the new pictures check box in the import window, as shown in this screenshot:

  • How to remove photos from the iPhone after import in Lightroom on Mac

    I went back to Lightroom after opening was abandoned by Apple and I'm happy to be back. I can easily import photos from my iPhone 6 on my desk, but what to do with the pictures on my phone. With opening could easily automatically delete photos from the iPhone. I don't see anything similar in Lightroom. Do I have to remove my photos manually by selecting one at a time? I don't want to delete the folders that I created.

    I'm not stored on the cloud or automatically sending my photos in Lightroom.

    Thank you

    This function no longer exists in LR as Adobe says that it was originally people loose photos, accidentally I think, so it must be done manually. To be honest I never used no deletion automatic, I want to import and check all is well before any withdrawals!

  • Photo and video of the wizard import and library in Windows 7 "is not" photos and video previously imported from the iPhone

    I am trying to import photos/videos from my iphone to my Win 7 PC.  I imported the photos from my iphone a few days ago, but not a not erase them the iPhone when I imported.  Now I want to re - import these pictures and delete them, but I can't.  Apparently, the Win 7 photo/video import wizard (and photo gallery of Win) remembers if you have already imported some photos, and if you have, it doesn't let you "import" them later.  He can't even see them - it just says no: "no new pictures or videos on this device" or similar.  Is there a way to disable the photo how the Import Wizard remember already imported photos, so I can just import all the photos that are on the iphone, regardless if they were imported before?

    My biggest problem is that always seems to be no easy way to delete all the photos on an iphone using Win 7, unless you remove them from the iphone as you download them on your PC.  Unfortunately, because I have already downloaded the photos without removing iPhone, the photo Import Wizard is not even 'see' the most and won't let me not re - import (allowing me to erase from the iphone).

    A related issue - I think I should be able to browse my iphone through Windows Explorer image files and copy them to my computer, everything as I would by plugging into any camera to my computer.  Win 7 seems to detect the iphone OK device in Windows Explorer, but when I browse the image files they are empty (even though there are hundreds of photos on the iphone).

    I've been struggling with this for hours, and it shouldn't be this hard.  I'm a PC user since a long time, but new on Win 7 (I can't find where everything is more) and relatively new to iPhones.  Help?

    First, you must use iTunes to * manage * photos and music * on * your iPhone. You
    can't do what you want to use anything native to Windows 7. Or with Windows Live
    Phot Gallery.
     
    iTunes is actually pretty intuitive when it comes to synchronization of content.
