Everything is updated.

• Removal of old photos of the iPhone with iCloud photo library on

  I had a 6 128 GB iPhone for a couple of years and I bought a Macbook Pro about a year ago. I've been running iCloud photo library - but not Photostream - and without really look deep into the settings exactly, when I take pictures on my phone they usefully automatically found in the Photos app on my macbook. When I remove photos from my phone, they also seem to disappear too from my mac.

  Recently, in an arrangement of happy until I started running low on space on my phone. My question is, is my library in 'mirror' between my devices? IE if I say, delete all my photos from 2012 to 2014 my phone, they are removed from my macbook too? Obviously, it would be disastrous.

  I guess my question is, what are the best settings to have a situation where my photos will be driven by my phone to my laptop, but then stored on my laptop indefinitely?

  Any help is appreciated.

  Hello

  When you use iCloud photo library, deletion of a photo or a video on any device that uses the service will remove this item in all of them and also to iCloud.

  The following resources may help explain how the photos and videos are managed by iCloud photo library, including the possibility to optimize the storage on your iPhone:

  • iCloud photo library - Apple Support
  • Get help with your photo library - Apple Support iCloud

  To manually import pictures to your laptop, you can follow the steps detailed here:

• How to save the MacBook Pro Photo library

  I am eager to help a friend to back up its Photo library of his MacBook Pro on a USB key. The Mac will be erased once the process is complete. Can someone give me a step by step guide how to keep safe all the photos of his library is supported if she can transfer it to a new Mac?

  One option would be to use the Google Photos. You can download the Google Photos to your MacBook Pro and iPhone app, and it backs up all the photos. Don't have free unlimited storage so no need to worry about losing all of them.

  See photos.google.com for more information.

• Change the referenced files photo library photos

  I know that I can import pictures into a photo library in the form of referenced files. But if I already imported pictures directly in the library can I reinstall them on an external drive?

  No, is not possible in Photos.The only thing you can do is to group them in your library and turn it into managed photos.

  To transform the photos managed photo referenced, you need to export them, delete them from your library and reimport them. Referenced photos are weakly supported in Photos. I'd only in this way, your photo library is too large for a single disc.

• I've demoted from El Capitan in Yosemite because of Photos of freezing. My photo library is now useless. Help, please!

  I've recently upgraded to El Capitan, and absolutely not regret it. I was able to access my photos, but any time I chose videos, panoramic, etc.. Pictures would freeze. My photo library is stored on an external drive, because my library is too large to fit on my laptop. I even went out and bought a new way of thinking of external drive, it was a problem with the lack of an update of El Capitan software compatible for the reader. But now, I see that this is probably not the case.

  So I went down to Yosemite and now I have this message: library not supported. The 'My Photos' library from a newer version of Photos. Please update the Photos to open this library.

  It's maddening! I upgraded to El Capitan, thinking they had the bugs developed here. But the pictures kept freezing and I had to force quit whenever I used the application. I want to just go back to what worked before. But Apple won't let me.

  I tried to fix this for days now. Someone had a similar problem? Have you been able to "downgrade" your photo library?

  I appreciate all the advice. I'm ready to give up the pictures after getting my library. I really think that I would be better to download my phone by Preview and any filing manually in the files on my external hard drive. Over the years, problems of iPhoto/Photos took weeks of my life. I'm exhausted.

  Before you upgrade to El Capitan, you should have a copy of your photo library. There is nothing you can do now, but go back to El Capitan. Photos in El Capitan should do even better than in Yosemite. I think that you updated a dysfunctional Yosemite, but since you have reinstalled it maybe, again, you should try El Capitan. This time you can try to install El Capitan on another partition of your startup disk if you have enough space to do so. If this isn't the case, then install it on a separate disk. Now, if you have any problems, it will be easy to return to Yosemite. In addition, you can see that El Capitan work best when it is installed properly.

• Photo library becomes corrupted transferring to NTFS?

  My iMac has been slow, so I decided to clear some memory.  I bought a Toshiba 1 TB hard drive, and the file format is NTFS.  I had to use the Tuxera NTFS converter to be able to copy files...  So I basically copied all my files on the hard disk without problem (including the photo library).  After that all copies were complete, I've completely cleaned of my hard drive and reinstalled Mac OS x iMac.  And my library of Photos on the hard drive.  When I tried to open the pictures library, that's when I realized that NTFS is not compatible for applications such as the library of Photos Mac...

  My general question is photo library become corrupted when converted to NTFS?  All my photos are now on the NTFS hard drive, and I don't know if I'll be able to convert it to the Format HFS + Mac on my iMac drive... (Without losing my precious photos)?  Would the software (Tuxera) corrupt Library of Photos when converting to NTFS hard disk format?  I'll be able to convert in HFS + without problem?

  Yes

  The photo library must only be on a volume formatted Mac OS extended (logged) - any other format does not work

  You might or might not be able to copy it to the correct format - if you're lucky, it will work, but he can't - put the library on an inclrredcly format drive can corrupt permanently

  as for support to Tuxera or other third party software, that you will need to contact their support team-, which means no pictures somehow

• I lost "photo library", how do I restore it?

  I just tried to open the application 'Photos' (or icon) on my Mac and received a message that says "Photos could not find the system 'photos library.photoslibrary' how can I do to recover it?  I have about 10,000 photos which are lost!   I run a separate hard disk as a time machine which is connected permanently, but I've never had to use it before.  Any help would be appreciated.   Mike George

  Photos first launch with down option and check to see if there is more than one library in the open window:

  

  If it is not shown it follow these steps:

  Download and run to find any file to search for a file named "historicalmarker.plist" in the name of the file. It is a file that is found only in the library of Photos.

  FAF can find areas that Spotlight can not as invisible folders, system folders and packages. If there is a library of pictures hidden somewhere on your harddrive FAF will find.

  Finally, if you still can't find the library, go to your pictures folder and launch Time Machine.  Go back until you see the library of Photos in the pictures folder.  Select it and use the restore button:

  Recently reinstalled OS X on my Macbook and have been bringing things plus one by one from a Time Machine backup. I dragged out of the photo library of backup to disk of the Macbook and put it in the images folder. I opened the Photos and a prompt appears that the library must be repaired in order to work properly. I click 'fix' and it starts. It stopped at 95% and gives me this message:

  I tried to update the computer.

  I dragged out of the photo library of backup to disk of the Macbook and put it in the images folder.

  Drag you it directly from Disk Time Machine? A library of Photos should be restored by running Time Machine, otherwise the internal links may not work.

  Try to start Time Machine and restore directly from the display of Starwars.

  Select the pictures folder, and then open it.  With the folder of photos open in the Finder more window start Time Machine. Go back at the same time you did your backup, and then select the photo library and click on the button "restore".

  

• How to move from beta to 10.11.3 photo library

  3-4 weeks back, I reinstalled the Captain on my MacBook after being on the beta program. Since then, I have no access to Photos - gives me an error message saying unsupported library

  

  How can I fix?

  Is your photo library a library of iCloud?  Then you can download your library again iCloud photo library, by creating an empty photo library and this library with iCloud synchronization.

  Otherwise restore your library of Photos from the last backup that you made before join you the beta program.  Copy your current library on an external drive before do you. You one then try to extract all the new photos of the Masters folder and import them into your restored library.

• ICloud deleting deletes photo library photos from iCloud, photo sharing

  I have iCloud photo library on my Mac and on my iPhone.  I created an album of photos and videos to spend several weeks going apartment hunting in my neighborhood.  I have friends who are also looking for apartments in my neighborhood and these photos and videos would be useful for them.  So I want to share all these content with them using iCloud, photo sharing.  However, I have this great set of photos/videos over on my Mac or my iPhone, because I have an apartment and my use for these photos.

  So I want to:

  1. create a shared album (let's call it 'Videos apartment').

  2. Add all my photos and videos of my apartment hunting that is currently in my library to iCloud.

  3 share only iCloud library with my friends (they can add, comment, do what they want)

  4 delete the original files from my library to iCloud I don't don't need or want these photos over on my personal devices.

  My question is: if I delete the photo in step 4, which will also remove the same pictures of the iCloud Shared Library?

  It would be useful to know if the iCloud share photos are copies separated from my photos of the library, or are the same.

  Sharing albums and Photo library iCloud iCloud different services and are stored independently from each other.

  When you create a shared album and share with your friends, you will see the shared album and photos in your photo library, but you can remove the originals from your photo library, as long as you do not remove the shared album photos. In the shared album photos can be slightly smaller than your original photos, because there is a limit of size of pixels for shared photos.

• After sleep, the photo library must be repaired

  I often sleep my iMac (El Capitan 10.11.2) and find in the morning that there is a window telling me that the photo library must be repaired, and I can fix it or quit. I chose the option "fix" several times, but that makes no difference. I talked to Apple support about this and was taken by the standard routine, but that changed nothing. Everyone comes through this?

  Hi rowlandfromromsey,

  Thank you for contributing to the communities of Apple Support.

  If you find that you need to repair your photo library after waking up from his sleep, there are a few steps that I would recommend who can help you find the cause of this behavior.

  First, create a new library and import photos as a trial and see if you get the same message. Assistance to the creation of a new library, see using several libraries in Photos.

  Another good step to try at this point is using the function of disk utility first aid to check your hard drive. See disk utility (El Capitan): check a disk or a volume for problems.

  You answer with the results of these two steps may help provide some following steps, too.

  Best regards.
