• 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?

• iCloud and Sync iPhoto

  Hi all

  I am now running the latest iOS and OS for a Mac and an iPhone 6. I wanted to get my photos in the cloud, and it took a few days (which is fine). I have about 3 000 photos.

  My question and the problem lies in the synchronization domain. There is probably a difference in number of 300 photo between the Mac and the iPhone. Why? I thought the point was that they moved as one?

  In addition, it makes my crazy OCD.

  We can not see you if you have details

  What version of the operating system and Photos? What are your iCloud on the Mac and every IOS device settings?

  In general you can not pictures of 'Move' to iCloud - if you use iCloud photo library, it's a synchronization service and all changes made on any device (additions, deletions, or modifications) will be made on all devices - with ICPL on devices with limited memory you use optimized photos

  With respect to the counts, need us specifics as to what you see and where you see it - and what is the status of each device

  Until that all downloads are completed no download occur and charges are presented differently in different places - some number of total elements and some Photos, items and videos separately present demanding add numbers

  and the view of the Photos you the County excludes hidden photos and in all the pictures, it includes hidden photos

• optimization of Photos to iCloud and import into Lightroom

  Hello.

  So, anyone know what happens if Photos optimization is enabled a giving iPhone and one of these optimized photos is added to your mobile in Lightroom?

  Is the original photo, full resolution, downloaded to the phone before downloading the catalog of Mobile with Lightroom? Or does do it manually first?

  Answering my own question...

  It seems that it downloads the image full resolution when the photo is added to a collection of mobile. But it completely changes the name of the photo of a huge string of characters. Don't know if it's iOS or Lightroom that does this. In terms of quality, there don't seem to be more compressed or different. And metadata are all there.

Because you have disabled iCloud photo library on the phone, you can safely remove the pictures on it without affecting anything else.
