ICloud Photo Library with automatic photo upload services such as Dropbox and Google

After enabling iCloud Photo Library in iOS 8, do automatic photo upload services such as Dropbox and Google+ still upload photos in full resolution?
Or do they upload the low resolution file?

About iCloud Photos Library Beta, it is yet more a preview than a beta
Do not rely on it to store full res Photos/Videos even if you have a 200GB iCloud Store
Major Bugs (according to help description of fonctionality):
-only IOS8 Photos manually edited are uploaded full res from IOS ! If you do not edit you get low res photos in iCloud Library
-uploaded 1080p videos from IOS are converted to 720p 5mb/s as in existing Photo Sharing and not originals.
-No upload button in web iCloud photo Client on MAC for many (all?) users
Also very slow and very often stuck doing nothing.
I am afraid we would have to wait for next year... or later
What is unbelievable is that there are no information at all by Apple about what should word on the beta, and known problems, nor any release date, that is definitely not a beta, just powerpoint preview. I am very angry after all the fuss they have done around "new" iCloud and my 200GB monthly payment that I cannot use.

Firefox on Shaw Cable Internet cannot connect to google services such as gmail and google search.

Called two associates and tried on two different Shaw connections at two different locations. No one can connect to Google searches on Shaw Cable internet in the Surrey, BC area using Firefox. It works with internet explorer and chrome.
Is Google doing this on purpose to get more chrome users?
Receiving following error:
Secure Connection Failed
An error occurred during a connection to www.google.ca. SSL received a record that exceeded the maximum permissible length. (Error code: ssl_error_rx_record_too_long)

Please contact the website owners to inform them of this problem. Alternatively, use the command found in the help menu to report this broken site.

Hi GaryGS, that change limits Firefox to using the SSLv3 protocol, when normally Firefox would upgrade to TLSv1 if the site supports it. I recommend trying to switch it back tomorrow or the next day for stronger secure connections once Shaw's issue is resolved.

HT204486 Sharing Photo library with family members with different iCloud accounts?

How might one share Photos library with family members with their own Apple IDs?

I would try the following:
1. Create a smart album. Match condition as "Album" is "Any". That should capture all your photos and videos as of now.
2. Share that Album via iCloud photo sharing, sending invitations to the family members.

Photo Library with duplicate pictures

I need help with the photo sync function. When syncing photos from my computer to my phone (via iTunes), a folder called Photo Library is automatically created on my phone, containing duplicate pictures of every picture being transferred.
To be specific and very clear, I have the Camera Roll on my phone. I have two folders on my computer with pictures which I want to add to my phone. These folders are titled "Miami beach trip" and "Hollywood trip" and contain 50 pics and 30 pics, respectively.
When I tried to sync the photos using iTunes, I ended up with 3 folders on my iPhone, in addition to the Camera Roll. I ended up with the Miami beach trip with 50 pics, hollywood trip with 30 pics, and a Photo Library folder with 80 pics (duplicates of all pics from Miami trip and hollywood trip).
Is there a way to sync so that I don't end up with duplicates? I tried deleting the iPhone Photo Cache folder before syncing and that did not work. Please help.

So this is normal? Is there a way to NOT have the Photo Library folder? It is pretty redundant and I would prefer to NOT have the same pics appear in more than 1 folder.
When I first realized that the Photo Library folder automatically appeared with the same exact photos from other folders, I became quite frustrated. I started messing around with the sync function. I would delete the iphone photo cache, then sync. Then I removed the folders that I had just added. Then I synced again. I did this quite a few times and somehow, I finally was able to add a folder without the Photo library containing all the pictures.
It was a fluke and I don't even know what I exactly did. I can't get it to work this time around but am convinced that there should be a way to do it.
Do you know how? Thank you for your time and help.

I have a MacBook Pro version 10.7.5 Every time I try to open iphoto I get the warning: "To open your library with this version of iPhoto, it first needs to be prepared. You have opened this photo library with a newer version of iPhoto." How do I do this?

I have a MacBook Pro version 10.7.5 Every time I try to open iphoto I get the warning: "To open your library with this version of iPhoto, it first needs to be prepared. You have opened this photo library with a newer version of iPhoto." How do I do this? I recently bought aperature, and it has been since then that I get this warning.
Thank you!

No I have not tried those things. I don't even know what that means I suppose I have the newest version of aperature; I just bought it 4 days ago.

Yes - you need a min of 10 GB just to operate - with just 1 you certainly can lose photos and other critical things - you need to make space immediately - probably by moving your iPhoto library to a volume formatted Mac OS extended -
Moving the iPhoto library is safe and simple - quit iPhoto and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity to the external drive - depress the option key and launch iPhoto using the "select library" option to point to the new location on the external drive - fully test it and then trash the old library on the internal drive (test one more time prior to emptying the trash)
And be sure that the External drive is formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) (iPhoto does not work with drives with other formats) and that it is always available prior to launching iPhoto
And backup soon and often - having your iPhoto library on an external drive is not a backup and if you are using Time Machine you need to check and be sure that TM is backing up your external drive

Accidentally uploaded entire photo library - 18,000 photos - to one Book. How do I get them out???

Help! I accidentally uploaded my entire photo library -- 18,000 photos -- to the Book I am working on. Now everything runs slow, and I can't figure out how to get them out quickly. It takes several seconds to just delete one photo. I don't want to delete the entire book, because I already spent a lot of time laying out 30 pages. How do I get rid of all the extra photos from the book?

Four choices
1 - delete the book and start over
2 - delete the extra photos in the book
3 - resotore your backup from before you did this
4 - leave them in the book and ignore the extras

Sync iPhone 4 Photo Library with iPhoto?

How do I sync my iPhone 4 Photo Library with iPhoto? I am able to sync the Camera Roll with iPhoto, but I cannot locate the Photo Library (899 pictures) when syncing from iPhone to iPhoto.
Thanks!

The photo sync is one way - computer to iphone.
You cannot sync the photo library form iphone to computer. Since the pics came from your computer in the first place, they should still be there and should be included with your regular backup of your computer. The iphone is not a storage device.
The pics are reduced in resolution when synced to iphone anyway.

You can't open photo library using this version of iphoto. you have made changes to your photo library using a newer version of iphoto. please quit and use the latest version of iphoto

you can't open photo library using this version of iphoto. you have made changes to your photo library using a newer version of iphoto. please quit and use latest version of iphoto. iphoto 11 is installed.

This is a message you got?
If so, as your post isn't clear, it may be a bogus message caused by a corrupt database.
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. .

Photo library shows more photos than it really has

My photo library has 41 photos, however when checking "Usage" it shows I have 10.4Gb. Why?
The complete Photo & Camera shows:
1. Photo Library = 10.4 Gb
2. My Photo Stream = 20.1 Mb
3. Shared Photo Stream = 821 Mb
when checking via iTunes, it shows I have 3801 photos, where are they? I know they are not the in recently deleted album.
Any ideas?

Hi rfirmeza,
It may help to force close all open apps and restart your iPhone.
Force an app to close in iOS
http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT5137
Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT1430
If you're still seeing a discrepancy in the number of photos on your device and storage space used, the next step would be to reinstall iOS on your device by placing it in Recovery Mode, then choosing Update in iTunes.
Make sure that you have iTunes 12 or later on your computer.
Put your device in recovery mode.
When you get the option to restore or update, select Update. This will reinstall iOS without erasing your data.
If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch doesn't respond or doesn't turn on

After updating my software to iOS 6 when I take a photo in an app on my iPhone such as Instagram and camwow when the photos go my camera roll they are black..why?

After updating my software to iOS 6 when I take a photo in an app on my iPhone such as Instagram and camwow when the photos go my camera roll they are black..why?

I upgraded an iPhone 4 from IOS 4 to IOS 6 and had similar problems here is what I did.
Problem:
Using the Camera App from the initial screen (a view finder for me) there is an icon on the lower left side with my last photo taken. When I select this icon the image is displayed and on the upper left side of the screen the Camera Roll button appears.
I select the Camera Roll button and all my images show up as black on a white background. I can select a black square and my image will apear.
Using the Instagram App when I try to select from my Camera Roll I see the same black boxes, and Instagram is not saving photos to my Camera Roll.
Fixing Instagram not saving problem:
Go to Settings:Privacy:Photos
Move the Instagram slider to ON
Back to the images not showing in the Camera Roll.
Someone suggested doing a reset (hold down sleep and home button for 10 seconds). After doing the reset the problem was worse. From the Camera App selecting the last photo icon from the view finder screen and the Camera Roll screen apears but says there are no saved images.
Fixing the Camera Roll not showing correctly problem:
Set Settings:General:Restrictions to ON (You will be prompted to create a password)
Select Settings:General:Restrictions ON>
Toggle the Camera slider to ON if it isnt already
This worked for me. Your milage may vary. Good luck.

HT6378 Can I share my iCloud-Photo-Library with my wife, so that photos from my iPhone and all photos from my wifes iPhone are in the same Photo-Library?

I have a Apple-ID and my wife has her own Apple-ID, but I want to use only one iCloud-Photo-Library. Is that possible?
I have created a Family-Sharing, but when I now set Foto-Library to on at both of our iPhones, I have one Library for my wife and another one for me.
Is there a trick?

Someone else can probably answer the family sharing question better than I can, but I wanted to respond with an alternate suggestion. I didn't find the features I wanted in family sharing, so I didn't give it much of a chance. It did seem like you'd have a separate album for each family member.
I just recently started using Flickr and it's great. I looked into it a few years ago and there were limitations on how many MB's you could upload per day and I don't remember being impressed by the amount of free storage. Now Flickr gives you 1000 GB for free and stores the image in the original quality and size. If you download the Flickr app on your phone, you can set it to automatically upload all of the new pictures on your iphone, ipad, etc. If you and a family member share a Flickr account, you can both auto sync your camera rolls into the same Flickr account.
Personally, I'm using Flickr as a way to automatically back up photos for free. I quickly ran out of free icloud storage and I haven't wanted to pay for more.In Flickr, the auto uploads from your phone are set to private by default, but you could use flickr to share albums with friends who don't own any apple products... unlike icloud photo sharing, that only allows your friends with an apple device to view shared albums.

Manual photo library with icloud

How do I sync desktop photos using icloud and iOS8.0? I have previously synced photos to a folder other that the default images folder with the manual sync selection option of iTunes. My new Iphone 6 phone was configured using icloud and syncing wireless over the internet. I'm looking to re-sync or re-add additional pictures located on desktop machine with the Iphone 6's photo library.

If you turned on iCloud Photo Library it disabled your ability to use iTunes to sync photos and videos between your computers and your iOS devices. As far as I can tell, this feature is gone until (maybe) when Apple releases their new Photos for OS X app sometime next year.

Can i share existing albums of photos from my photo library with friends straight to icloud rather than having to create a new shared folder and then select the individual photos rather than a whole album??

Ok to clarify -
1. i want to go into my photos on my iphone 6.
2. create a new folder in shared folders.
3. Add an entire album of photos from my photo library rather than having to select individual photos.
4. Share with friends.
Surely the reason i have saved certain photos into albums already from my mac means i like the selection already. So i would like to just share the whole album rather than having to select all the individual photos from the album. Ive tried but maybe im being a doofus and missing something??????
Any help would be most appreciated.
thank you in advance
Kris

This is normal and is how Apple handles photos.
There are NOT duplicate photos.
Just as a song is in your itunes library and you can access that exact same song from a playlist, all photos synced to iphone are in the photo library and those exact same photos (NOT duplicates) can be accessed from the individual albums.
It is working exactly as it should.

HT6378 ICloud Photo Library: batch download photos

How can I batch download photos from icloud.com/#photos to a folder on Windows 7?

I tried to do the same thing, download all my photo library but it's actually impossible to do it easily on PC.
So i just found someone with a macbook to use the "photos" application on his mac...
So yes, i hope they will implement something like a button to download a zip with all your photos on icloud.com
Or implement the photo library sync on PC in the icloud software
