ICloud Photo Library, some not all photos

Is there a way to set up to store some photos, or photo albums in iCloud but not all? Seems like it's all or none.

Yeah - I'm sticking with Photostream, and iPhoto right now. Once the new photo app is available across the board, and there is more literature on it, I will look into using the cloud, but I'm happy to keep it on my Mac. With the automatic import of Photostream photos, it really doesn't require a lot of work to keep photos on the Mac, and with a regular backup to TimeMachine, I'm comfortable that it is all backed up and safe....
Cheers,

  • Since iCloud Photo Library will not allow photos from iTunes iphoto to be up loaded ---how do I upload my photos to iCloud Photo Library?

    I Have a 5s iPhone updated to 8.1---- have installed iCloud Photo Library---- will only upload 4oo of 21,000 photos--- will not upload any photos from iTunes. Since all 21,000 are in iPhoto's iTunes how do I get them to the icloud photo library.  As you know enabling iCloud Photo Library deletes all iTunes photos from the iPhone 5s.  Any ideas? 

    I Figured it out----- you can't upload iTunes iphotos to iCloud Photo Library from an iPhone!  Can't be done.  Must have a Mac to do it--- and it better not be an old one. Thanks apple!

  • Photo library?? all photos not available

    Hi!
    I switched to the iCloud Photo library to save storage on my phone and iPad
    Every photo of mine is in iPhoto and iCloud, however I can not "see" older photos NOT taken on phone and iPad in the Photos app (on phone and iPad)
    Is this due to iCloud Photo library being beta, or is there a setting I am missing??
    if due to beta, will this functionality work soon?
    thx for your help!

    correction!!! all of my photos are NOT on iCloud, but they are in iPhoto on my Mac

  • IPhoto, deleting some not all photos

    I imported photos into iPhoto but I only want to delete some from iPhone. iPhoto shows that I already imported all my photos. It gives me the option to delete all my photos since they are already imported. However, I want to keep some of the photos on my iphone.

    As a Test:
    Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
    Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

  • ICloud Photo Library does not show photos from photostream on other devices.

    When I choose to use the iCloud photo library (beta) on my iPhone, the only photos that I can see are recent photos I've taken with my phone. If I disable this and only use the photostream, then all my photos are shown on my phone, including photos I took with my camera and uploaded to my Mac. What's the deal? I like being able to access my older photos or photos taken with other devices on my phone without using storage space. Am I able to do this with the iCloud photo library? Is it bc it's still in beta that I can't?

  • Can't open some (not all) photos in Develop

    Hey all,
    I'm running Lightroom 1.1 on my Powerbook G4 (1.67ghz, 2 gigs of ram).
    Recently had a data base corruption problem, reverted to my backup, everything seemed fixed and working fine. However, it turns out that some files (not all) can no longer be opened in the Develop module: when I'm trying to open one of these files in develop, the preview shows but the panels remain disabled. This happens to both JPEG files from a Canon EOS 350D and to DNG files from a Leica M8. If I select another affected file in the filmstrip while this is happening, the image in the navigator changes to the preview of the newly selected file, but the image in the main viewer remains that of the first affected file selected. If I select a unaffected file from the film strip, the develop module loads properly.
    I've checked the catalog's integrity, and even optimized it, but nothing helped.
    The affected files are present on disk and open in Photoshop just fine, so they're not corrupted.
    Any ideas on what's going on?
    Thanks :)

    I am having the same Problem but I have many folders in Lightroom....many are in Red type and they say File Cannot Be Opened. I went to import and imported one from external drive to the same external drive folder and it came in fine and the images now open fine in the Develop module...will I have to do that to all my folders ....Whew!!!! Will I lose all my edits? Whew!!!! Is there a better way.....Gerald

  • IPhoto/viewing issues with size on some, not all, photos.

    HELP!
    When creating an iPhoto slideshow, I have found certain photos appear too large when "played".  The photo is seen as a part and  cut short to the viewer.  So far my unsuccessful attempts have been:
    Cropped  (slide is cut down but returns to original dimensions and becomes blurry).
    Exported to apps. PhotoShop and Preview and "Resized".  Remains in the original dimensions with a smaller version in the middle with a large border of white.
    Imported as a different size.
    Reduced printing size.
    The problem is how do I reduce the size of the photo without loosing the quality and is viewed in its' entirety?Mac Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.8)

    As a Test:
    Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'

  • Why are not all photos taken with an iphone available on the icloud, even that i made some fotos at the same time. Some of them are afterwards available on fotostream others not

    Hi,
    why are not all photos taken with an iphone available on the icloud, even that i made some fotos at the same time?
    Some of these photos are afterwards available on fotostream others not.
    Thx
    Markus

    If they are in photos view then they are in an event unless you have a corrupted library
    How are you"merging" the photos?
    most common issue is either bad sort (view menu ==> sort events) or bad camera dates
    select one and show event to see the event

  • How can I delete or transfer some (not all) Albums, Music and pics in "Photo Library" NOT purchased in iStore from my iPhone to a computer, when the original computer that did the original iTunes to iPhone synch is no longer available (stolen)?

    The iPhone iOS 4 User Guide sees to indicate that the SYNCH function is all one way from computer to iPhone, unless it is for purchased items in iStore on the iPhone.
    1. How can I delete some (not all) Albums and Music from my iPhone when the original computer that did the iTunes to iPhone synch is no longer available (stolen)?
    2. How can I transfer Albums and Music (not purchased from iStore on iPhone) from my iPhone to the new computer?
    3. How can I delete some (not all) pictures in my iPhone "Photo Library"  when the original computer that did the iTunes to iPhone synch is no longer available (stolen)?
    4. How can I transfer pictures in my iPhone "Photo Library" to the new computer?

    Hi wjosten,
    thanks for the "TouchCopy" software link. I have downloaded a demo copy and it will resolve my transfer of music from iPhone to the new computer. I can then delete any unwanted music on the new computer, then re-synch the updated music to iPhone.
    I am not sure about the photos.   On my iPhone, there are two photo "albums" - one called "camera roll" and the other called "photo library."  TouchCopy finds the pictures in the "camera roll" DCIM folder, and I can copy them to the new computer etc. 
    However, TouchCopy does not seem to find the "Photo Library" folder.  Any clues?

  • Why some photos in my Photos library did not upload to my iCloud photo library. Isn't supposed to be automatic?

    Why some photos in my Photos library did not upload to my iCloud photo library. Isn't supposed to be automatic?

    Is there something special about the file formats? iCloud Photo Library supports:
    JPEG, RAW, PNG, GIF, TIFF, and MP4.
    And no JPEG must be larger than 16GB.
    The photos will not upload, if the original image file is missing. Can you edit or export the photos, that did not upload?

  • Photo library is not backing up when icloud backs up

    MY iPad Air 8.1.1 and my iPhone 5s 8.1.1 both give me a message saying, " icloud photo library has not backed up in 16 days. Connect to wifi and backup."  iCloud backs up daily. Why are my photos not included in this backup. I have iCloud Drive turned on. Should I turn it off? Help! 

    Try deleting your existing backup and backing up again.  An inability to back up to iCloud can be caused by a corrupt existing backup that needs to be deleted, or by data on your device that is causing the backup to fail.  To troubleshoot these, try deleting your last iCloud backup (if you have one) by going to Settings>iCloud>Storage>Manage Storage, tap your device under Backups, then tap Delete Backup and choose Turn Off & Delete at the prompt.  Then go to Settings>iCloud>Backup and turn iCloud Backup back on and try backing up again.
    If it still won't back up, you may have an app or something in your camera roll that is causing the backup to fail.  To locate which one, go to Settings>iCloud>Storage>Manage Storage, tap the name of your device under Backups, under Backup Options tap Show All Apps, then turn them all to Off (including camera roll) and try backing up again.  If the backup is successful, then the camera roll and/or one of your apps is causing the backup to fail and you'll have to located by process of elimination. Turn the camera roll On and try backing up again.  If it succeeds, turn some of your apps to On and try backing up again.  If it succeeds again, turn some more apps to On then try again; repeat this process until it fails.  Eventually you'll be able to locate the problem app and exclude it from your backup.

  • TS4062 I replaced my iPad with a new one. I backed up to iCloud but did not do a physical iTune Sync. Now I am having trouble recovering some Notes and Photos. I have been reinstalling Apps from the App Store. How do I recover my Notes?

    I replaced my iPad with a new one. I backed up to iCloud but did not do a physical iTune Sync. Now I am having trouble recovering some Notes and Photos. I have been reinstalling Apps from the App Store. How do I recover my Notes?

    Thank you again for all of your help!! I really appreciate it!
    I think I am following -- I was able to upload to my iPhoto and all photos and videos are there that is a plus! I tried to create an Event in my iPhoto and put all of my photos in that event but for some reason, now my iTunes it not recognizing that Event in my iPhoto. It is not allowing me to import just that event at the moment but I may be doing something wrong. At least all of my pics and vids are in iPhoto so that is a plus and I know they are at least saved somewhere. Just for some reason, my iTunes it not locating the event that I created with only those photos.
    Thank you for letting me know about my contacts! How do I know if I have the contacts app?
    Also, I had no clue that my iCloud could be backed up via cellular data! However, is this a new feature with the most updated iOS?? Unforutnatly I am like 2 iOS updates behind because I don't have enough storage on my phone. I still get the notification that my phone needs to be plugged in and connected to wifi in order to back up to the cloud :-(
    How can I sync using USB? Right now when i click on the info tab for my iPhone in my iTunes this is the answer that I get -- I am a little unclear as to what it means.
    Sync Contacts:
    Your contacts are being synced with you iPhone over the air from iCloud. Over-the-air sync settings can be changed on you iPhone
    Sync Calendars:
    Your calendars are being synced with you iPhone over the air from iCloud. Over-the-air sync settings can be changed on you iPhone

  • Hi, I just updated my mac from version10.6 to 10.9.3 os mavericks. i went to open iPhoto and it says "Your photo library will not be readable by previous versions of iPhoto after the upgrade." does this mean I have lost all photos i had in there?

    Hi, I just updated my mac from version10.6 to 10.9.3 os mavericks. i went to open iPhoto and it says "Your photo library will not be readable by previous versions of iPhoto after the upgrade." does this mean I have lost all photos i had in there? It does not give me a choice, it just says quit or upgrade? p.s. i didn't realise ther was  a way to back up my computer beforehand, which i am guessing this is time machine?

    1. No, you haven't.
    2. Back up the iPhoto library(this can be done through Time Machine or by dragging it to a drive, partition, or disk image formatted as Mac OS Extended) and then click Upgrade.
    3. Aside from Time Machine and drag-copying items from your home folder, programs such as the Disk Utility, Carbon Copy Cloner, and SuperDuper can make backups.

  • I can see all of the thumbnails in my library but when i click on photo it becomes an ! not all photos do this but wondering if there is a fix

    i can see all of the thumbnails in my library but when i click on photo it becomes an ! not all photos do this but wondering if there is a fix

    The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
    What version of iPhoto do you have? Assuming 09 or later...
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

No progress bar updating?! no feedback?! app working only when not in background?! hours to upload 4 iphone photos?! no network activity throbber?!
    I buy 200GB extra storage for using with iCloud Photo Library... but, the app is NOT WORKING!!
    Photos app gets stuck when uploading photos. Literally, I left my laptop turned on for 12 hrs uploading no more than 1000 photos and when I came back, it hasn't upload even 1 photo!!!!
    WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU APPLE??!!! since last year, the quality of your software is not meeting general expectations.
    Please help!
