• Deleting photos from your iOS device

  OK, so I love having the convienent to take a picture and make them appear on all my devices. However, in general I like to keep all my photos on my MBP and not my iOS (iPhone, iPad) devices. Is there a way to remove photos from my iPhone and does not affect the photos on MBP app without turning off the iCloud library?

  Is there a way to remove photos from my iPhone and does not affect the photos on MBP app without turning off the iCloud library?

  No, the purpose of iCloud photo library is to have exactly the same pictures on all your devices.

  You can turn on 'Optimize storage' on your devices, so the photos they need less storage.

  Or move the photos on your Mac to a second photo library, which does not synchronize with iCloud.  Single library can be synchronized with iCloud. If you transfer pictures to a second library, before you remove them from your iOS devices, copies in different library will remain.

• Why accept Photos PhotoStream updated iOS devices?

  It seems once 'Photos' came on the scene, so it's more seamless integration between iOS and OSX versions.  It is a step backwards.  It is a pain to have to find a cable, and then plug it into the (very expensive) dongle on my Macbook 2015, to get photos to date.  Is there a current difficulty yet?

  I just had to go to the preferences, turn off the stream of Photos, then again in market.  Crude, but effective.

  Comment: If I wanted to do this kind of thing for current operations, I'd go back to a PC rather than buy a new Macbook.   :-/

  I hope that someone at Apple reads these.

• Sharing files between devices using internet?

  Because I use my cell phone for internet connection I need to know if file sharing between my phone and my computer or iPad using this connection. It becomes expensive to use this connection and I need to watch - and to limit my use. So far I have not found information on how Lightroom uses the net.

  As John said, there is an option to avoid using cellular data - simply press the Lr logo at the top left and you'll see it there:

  

  Note that you can activate it works at will, so if you need to synchronize "just this once" you can turn it off temporarily (remember to turn it back on when you're done!)

• Photo sharing in new iphoto using Gmail?

  After updating to the latest version of iphoto (v.1.0.1) last month, I can no longer share photos using Gmail.  I don't want to use the Apple mail program to share the photos as it crashes whenever I try to open it. Can someone help, I work on a Macbook Pro with OSX Yosemite. Thank you!  Michelle

  This isn't iPhoto it's pictures, a completely different application.

  Gmail is a messaging service that access you using an application any - whether it's Apple Mail another customer of email or a web browser, so what app do you use?

• How do I disable find my iPhone for an iOS since another device iOS device using a browser?

  I want to disable find my iPhone for my iPhone (who died), friends iPhone (it's just an example, not really happened to me).  So I open Safari or Chrome and go to iCloud.com.  Yet, the browser takes me to the "icloud.com/iPhone_Welcome" and I can't do it.

  Why can I do this on a computer and not a browser of iOS?

  Press and hold the button refresh in Safari (semicircular arrow to the right of the URL) and it will display the option "Ask Site desktop."

• Download optimized photos we three iOS devices is blocked probably for lack of storage space on the device.

  I transferred my photo library 47 000 iMac to iCloud. It took nearly a week, then downloaded iCloud all optimized to my iPhone photos 6 and iPad. My wife's phone has however only uploaded 20 000 photos and seems stuck. Remaining storage is equal to zero. the file of the photo and the camera is 8.4 GB on 11. We have removed all but essential applications.

  There were several thousand photos on his phone before the download starts.

  I tried to load his camera on pictures and it shows 2240 photos that were imported to the pictures already. If I could remove these, it could open enough space on the phone to continue and complete the download and optimization.

  Disable iCloud photo library before removing all the pictures, then turn it back on.

• How to import photos from an iOS device photos via USB?

  I import my photos of iPhone & iPad via USB for pictures on my Mac.

  I turned off the option to automatically open Photo when I plug my iPhone to Mac, because in most cases, I don't want to import Photos (for example just recharge the phone via the USB port).

  But now I can not get an option to import my photos.

  I read the help pages, but can't find the answer because it suggests options should open when the USB key is inserted, but the screen remains the same

  What should I do?

  Have you tried the following:

  • Launch Photos manually once you connect your iPhone to the Mac.
  • Enter the ⌥⌘S (command-option-S) key combination to make the sidebar visible on the Photos.
  • Click on the camera icon or an iPhone in the sidebar when it appears.

  Your iPhone shows in iTunes or in the Image Capture? If iPhone doesn't appear at all, make sure it is properly loaded and unlocked, disconnecting, take a new photo, then reconnect it.

  • Start iTunes and confirm that you agree with the mac, the prompt on the iPhone.
  • Try a different USB port.
  • Try to force reboot the iPhone.

• must anyone using iCloud photo sharing have an Apple device

  The family has an iPhone or a Mac computer.  Some computers are older and do not work elCapitan.  Should everyone have an Apple elCapitan device to use sharing photos running?

  You can view sharing photos without an Apple device, if you share your albums as a public web page and send the link to anyone without an Apple device, see this help page:

  iCloud, sharing photos - Apple Support

  https://support.Apple.com/en-us/HT202786

  You can even share albums with friends and family who do not use iCloud. Just open a shared album you have created, go to the people tab on your iOS device or click on on your Mac and turn on the Public website. Your photos publish on a website that anyone can see in an up-to-date web browser.

• How to use iCloud for PC without an iOS device?

  I received an invitation to join a place to share photos of iCloud.  I'm not an Apple user, do not have an iOS device (or plan in the near future).

  I've created an Apple ID iCloud and have iCloud account.  I downloaded and installed iCloud for Windows on my PC.  However when I try to run the program and enter my Apple ID and password to connect, I get the following message:

  Unable to connect

  Your identifier Apple must serve to iCloud on an OS X device or an iOS to install before you can use iCloud for Windows.

  Is this to say that I can't access the iCloud photo sharing subscription since I did not have an iOS device to set up my account?  ICloud photos can be shared with users who have an iOS device to that?

  Thanks in advance.

  You can create an Apple on a Windows PC ID, but you cannot create an iCloud account - it is a separate additional process and unless you've been able to create one on a Mac or iOS device you don't have an iCloud account, only an Apple ID. This is why the error message you see.

  iCloud accounts are essentially positioned as a way for Mac/iOS users synchronize data from their devices and are a free service at the Starter level; the control panel is intended for users of Mac/iOS, which also happens to have a Windows PC. They are not intended for Windows users only. Unless you can find a way to set up a device to iCloud on a Mac or an iOS device, you will not be able to move forward.

  iCloud sharing photos can be configured as a public or private - the first are directly accessible in any web browser, but private sharing requires you to have iCloud account. If your source is not willing to set up a public share (that would be accessible to the world in general) you will not be able to access it without an iCloud account.

• iCloud, sharing photos for Non - iOS users

  So, I use iCloud for about two years now, and it does for the most part, what I want and need to. However, whenever my family and I go camping during the weekend, take a vacation or just to Barbecue a Sunday afternoon, we have a ton of photos on a large number of devices. For the wife and children, this isn't a problem since we have all of the iPhones and use iCloud. But, it seems that we are facing a problem whenever someone on an Android phone has a few pictures they want help or like to download some pictures that we have added.

  Y at - it an easy way for non - iOS users view and/or edit albums shared iCloud without going through a several-step process (transfer of office, download third party app, etc..)? It is my understanding that an Android user should be able to display/change via a web browser, but don't seems to work. I looked at other cloud services and apps, and major issues, in that I continue to run are:

  1: having to pay another Cloud Computing service, when I already pay for iCloud is not economic.

  2: I find a lot of the photo-sharing applications and services give a lot of storage, but at a cost to the quality of the photos. My wife and her friends are always doing something creative with your impressions so even some 'high quality' compression can degrade enough make it unusable.

  3: I have a hard time to ask someone to download an application, not to mention of asking them to pay for one. Nor am I comfortable someone jump through hoops, just so that I can watch through a batch of photos in the hope of finding one or two which are useful.

  So, is there an easy way to do it, or I'm stuck or wait for Apple to understand a feature like this would be useful or leave iCloud for a solution amicably more cross-platform? I do not understand that Apple needs to focus on the development and support of applications and services for its ecosystem and customer, but would it not make sense to make it convenient for outside users to have a great experience too?

  I don't know what problems you encountered but the sharing Web site works fine for me.

• Remove photos from ios devices.

  If I delete the photos on my ipad or iphone original will always be in my library icloud?

  I would still be able to access my photos, my icloud, on my ios devices, but do not want to store photos on them. I already have icloud configuration to optimize storage and photo stream is disabled on ipad, but turned on, on my iphone.  It's possible?

  The warning that I get when I delete a photo tells me that it will also be deleted in iCloud.

  have you thought about a service like Flickr? You can configure it to automatically download photos, and he keeps private until make them you public. It is also free and works on android, iOS, and office. (Given the iCloud limit size, that's what Ive started to use for my photos, you get a terabyte of space instead of 5 gig)

  And beyond their downloading, what you change on Flickr is not performing what is on your device and vice versa... I deleted the photos off my camera and had them again are on my flickr.

• keep the photos in icloud, but remove them from the iOS device?

  Hi, need help to keep my old photos in the cloud, then to remove them from my iphone device. I can also keep on my mac but still once, how can I make sure that when I delete from my iphone I can still access them in the cloud or on my big Mac? My phone is getting to the maximum it can hold up to now need to move them to a storage for later viewing device, editing or other.

  Thank you

  You cannot store pictures on iCloud and remove them from your device. Remove them on the phone also icloud removes them. You can set for storage optimized on your device that compresses the resolution of the device stored photos, keep the originals in iCloud.

  If you want to be able to todelete pictures from your phone and store them elsewhere, you must use subscription such as Dropbox cloud storage or store them on your computer.
