<div>iCloud Photos works seamlessly with the Photos app to keep your photos and videos securely stored in iCloud and up to date on your iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple TV, and on iCloud.com. If you take a photo on your iPhone, for example, you can see that same photo on your other devices and on iCloud.com, too.</div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div>youtube download icloud photos</div><div></div><div>DOWNLOAD: https://t.co/ls2T0sfDun </div><div></div><div></div><div>iCloud+ is a premium subscription that provides additional storage to keep your photos, videos, files, and more backed up and automatically available across your devices. It also includes access to features like iCloud Private Relay, Hide My Email, Custom Email Domain, and HomeKit Secure Video support for a private and connected experience.</div><div></div><div></div><div>I suspect they might be displayed when we imported the photos from her iPhone (via a lightning bolt to USB cable), rather than when the photos were taken. I suspect this, because we'd only import photos once or twice a year, and in iCloud Photos, in 'Photos' (not Moments) the photos seem to be grouped together in big monthly groups, i.e. all photos in 2021 appear under December 2021.</div><div></div><div></div><div>It is intentional. In Photos at wwww.icloud.com the "Moments" are sorted by the date photo has been taken, while the "Photos" tab is sorted by the date the photos have been added to the library. This makes it easy to find recently added photos in one place, even if they are having different capture dates.</div><div></div><div></div><div>The trouble is, within each big group (that share the same date added to the library) the photos are not displayed in (date taken) order. So if we added a years worth of photos to the library at the end of a year, the photos within that group are mixed up.</div><div></div><div></div><div>The photos in the Photos app on the MacBook display in the correct date order. When my wife turns on iCloud Photos on her iPhone, will the photos from iCloud sync down on to the phone in the correct order?</div><div></div><div></div><div>Thank you. We've just synched the iCloud Photos on to the iPhone and they are displayed in the correct date order. So that's good. it is unlikely that we will look at the photos in a browser on icloud.com</div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div>My iCloud Photos Library is syncing with several devices - iPhone, iPad, several Macs.. When I view the "Photos" at www.icloud.com, they are in the same order as the Recents album on my Mac, mostly great blocks of photos imported at the same time, but with very different capture dates.</div><div></div><div></div><div>But all my iPhone photos are in iCloud, not Dropbox. So it is certainly a reasonable expectation to have iCloud for Windows installed on a PC and that has NOTHING to do with OneDrive or Google Drive, or any other cloud solution... My troubleshooting enabled my to realize what the issue is and its 100% repeatable. Customers who use OneDrive don't have a problem, so maybe I should leave Dropbox and go to OneDrive. I'm sure that's not what the CRO at Dropbox would want to hear...</div><div></div><div></div><div>As an idiot, I needed a lot of help figuring out how to download a local copy of my iCloud Photos to my Synology. I had heard of a command line tool called icloudpd that did this, but unfortunately I lack any knowledge or skills when it comes to using such tools.</div><div></div><div></div><div>This enabled me to get up and running and now my entire 500GB+ iCloud Photo Library is synced to my Synology. Note that this is not just a one time copy. Any changes I make to the library are reflected when icloudpd runs. New (and old) photos and videos are downloaded to a custom folder structure based on date, and any old files that I might delete from iCloud in the future will be deleted from the copy on my Synology (using the optional --auto-delete command). This allows me to manage my library solely from within Apple Photos, yet I have an up to date, downloaded copy that will backup offsite via HyperBackup. I will now set up the same thing for other family members. I am very excited about this.</div><div></div><div></div><div>If you use macOS TextEdit app to copy/paste/tweak your commands, make sure you select Format>Make Plain Text! I ran into a bunch of issues because TextEdit automatically turns straight quote marks into curly ones, which icloudpd did not understand.</div><div></div><div></div><div>If you do a first sync via computer, make sure you prevent your computer from sleeping. When my laptop went to sleep, it seemed to break the SSH connection, which interrupted icloudpd. After I disabled sleeping, the process ran to completion without issue.</div><div></div><div></div><div>After turning on iCloud Photos, turn on "Optimize Storage" in the Settings. Low resolution photos will AUTOMATICALLY be kept on your phone and the high-res files will AUTOMATICALLY be kept in the cloud. This will prevent your phone from running out of storage. Whenever you do something with the Apple Photos app and a higher-res file is needed, the high-res version will be downloaded AUTOMATICALLY. The only time you should delete a photo is if you never want to see it again. And 2TB of storage for all of those high-res files is $9.99 per month. 2TB is a lot of storage for iPhone photos.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Now, what if something crazy happens and Apple loses all of your photos? Very doubtful, but possible. Then you can protect yourself by signing-up for another service like Google Photos. Any photo you take can be set to also AUTOMATICALLY upload to their service. So, you can have your photos flowing automatically to 2 places, Apple and Google.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Another option for photo enthusiasts is Adobe. You can put Lightroom on your phone and set it up so all of the photos would flow into Adobe's cloud. Then if you have Lightroom Classic on your computer at home, you can set the high-res files to download there onto a drive of your choice. So, with Adobe, you can get BOTH cloud and local storage automatically by using Lightroom. I have the Photography Plan and 1TB of storage with Adobe for $20 per month. That gives you Lightroom, Lightroom Classic, Lightroom mobile (iPhone and iPad), Photoshop, Premier Rush (for video), Portfolio and more. In fact, I am a commercial photographer and use Portfolio for my primary website:</div><div></div><div></div><div>Beyond simply storage, Apple, Google, and Adobe all have AI (Artificial Intelligence) features like facial and object recognition. Search for the word "dog" on any of those services and all of the photos you have taken with a dog will appear. And every month or so I get a slideshow with music from Apple made with photos from a special day or event. I don't tell it what to make, it just knows. For instance, it knows photos taken on December 25th are from Christmas and makes it for me, excluding photos with eyes closed, etc. Pretty amazing stuff.</div><div></div><div></div><div>As Apple puts it: \u201CAutomatically upload and safely store all your photos and videos in iCloud so you can browse, search and share from any of your devices.\u201D Notice the word backup doesn\u2019t appear there anywhere?</div><div></div><div></div><div>We\u2019re all taking more photos and videos than ever before, in higher resolution, and the fact is, we outgrow our phone\u2019s storage all the time. All of us needs to pay more attention to backup strategies. Amazon, Google, Microsoft, Dropbox and SmugMug have different plans (they all charge) that don\u2019t involve deleting your cloud photos if you\u2019ve gotten rid of them from your phone.</div><div></div><div></div><div>There is no free storage available anywhere for more than a handful of photos and videos. And no, Facebook and Instagram don\u2019t count, as images are ground down to super low-resolution and you\u2019ll never get the full res version back.</div><div></div><div></div><div>This isn\u2019t the proper or ideal way to back up photos, however. Nor is it a long-term solution: Apple will actually delete your files from its cloud 180 days after you turn off iCloud backup, so be aware of that.</div><div></div><div></div><div>I've been having an issue with my Photos up and disapearing in iOS, but remaining in Photos on macOS and in iCloud.com. On my Mac and online I'm still seeing all of my Photos (12,000+) but on iOS I'm seeing less than 600 photos. Screenshots and Pictures I'm taking on my iPhone aren't syncing across. I'm wondering if this is somehow related to Apple removing iMessage Cloud Syncing?</div><div></div><div></div><div>To bring your iCloud Photos into the Photos app, make sure your Photos app is updated and then install the iCloud for Windows app, all from the Microsoft Store. From there, sign in and choose to sync your photos, and all your iCloud Photos content will appear automatically in your Photos app.</div><div></div><div></div><div>The Photos app can detect duplicates of photos in your collection. A file is determined to be a duplicate if it has the same file name and file size as other photos in your collection. A file can be considered a duplicate even if it's stored in a different location.</div><div></div><div></div><div>You're able to browse your collection by date, album, video project, folder, or tags you have applied to your photos. You also have the option of turning on the facial grouping feature as another way of finding photos in your collection. Facial grouping finds similar faces across photos or videos and sorts those groupings into albums, allowing you to tag those albums with nicknames you choose. This feature can be turned on or off in the Photos app's settings page and in the People tab. Learn more about the facial grouping feature.</div><div></div><div></div><div>In the meantime, photos tells me I have 36,296 photos, and on April 20, it reported uploading 33,822. This makes sense, since my iPhone is already in iCloud, and I sync my iPhone to the computer.</div><div></div><div>Today is a couple weeks, and photos is now reporting 32,499 uploaded. So a whopping 1,323 uploaded!</div><div></div><div></div><div>8700 left now.</div><div></div><div>So the only thing I did that might have given it a kick in the pants is that I decided to attack a couple thousand duplicates that came from my iPhone over the last 6 months. I had WhatsApp configured to automatically save photos and it seemed to create lots of duplicates, that then got on my MacBook when I synced photos. So I used Duplicate Annihilator for Photos a couple days ago to clean things up.</div><div></div><div>The Annihilator created an album containing all my dupes, I then labeled them and deleted from my library.</div><div></div><div> df19127ead</div>
