How to acccess icloud photos on mac

I'm trying to figure out how to see/access all the photos taken on my i6, which are stored in the iCloud, on my MacBook Pro. Thanks

Hi Evlwaze,
View your photos that you have taken from your iPhone can go one of two ways depending on the setup you have for your iPhone. The first is if you use iCloud Photo Library then the best way to view the photos is to be using the Photos app that is currently in beta if you are running the OS X 10.10.3. You can also view them at iCloud.com in the Photos web app as well. If you are just using the My Photo Stream option, then all you would need to use iPhoto and you will see an option to turn on My Photo Stream. If are still not seeing anything, let me know what settings you are using for your iPhone in Settings > Photos so I can give you some additional options to view those photos.

    Depends on the actual device.
    If it's an iOS device you can sync via iTunes.
    Other devices: Export from iPhoto to the FInder and send them from there.

  • How to create Album in iCloud Photos on Mac?

    Anyone know how to create an album in iCloud photos on the Mac?  It has a section for "My Albums" but I have no clue how to create one.  I want to put all photos into named albums instead of just moments.  I see how to do it on iPhone but it doesn't sync to the iCloud on Mac to look the same.  Let me know what I am missing or not seeing here.  Thanks

    You cannot yet create albums in the iCloud Photos.app, only in the Photos.app on your mobile iOS 8 devices, or in the Photos.app for Mac that has yet to be released.

  • How upload to iCloud photo library beta from mac

    How do I upload photos from imac (iPhoto) to iCloud photo library beta.

    I have bought 500 gb of data a month. However what is the point as I only have access to the photos I take on my phone. I have no option in the beta.icloud/photo app to upload my photos from my mac.. what am I missing?
    The option to upload should be there on the iCloud web page, but I don't see it.  That is what iCloud Help says:
    Add new photos or videos
    Log in to iCloud.com, then click Photos.
    Click Upload and select the photos or videos you want to add.
    Click Choose to upload them to your library.
    So, I am sure, the option to upload will be there soon. It must be an oversight. Send feedback to Apple: Apple - iPhoto - Feedback
    The still elusive "Photos.app" on your Mac is supposed to bring the ability to upload to iCloud Photo Library on the Macs. The release has been announced for "Early next year". For the time being, upload the photos you want in iCloud Photo Library to your devices (Photo Stream, Mail) and add them from there to the iCloud Photo Library.

  • How to see iCloud Photos on iPhone?

    Hello,
    So, two days ago I took the plunge and activated iCloud Photos, primarily for the backup, but also for consistency across devices. When I flipped the switch, my iPhone warned me that all photos would be remove (I'd read about this). I said "OK", thinking I'd have access on my phone to all the photos in the iCloud photo library.
    But right now, when I look on my iPhone, I don't see icons for all of the photos in my iCloud Photo library (which I can see through the iPhoto library on our Mac).
    What am I doing wrong? How do I control which photos are readily available on my iPhone going forward, now that (ostensibly) all our photos are available on the iPhone?
    Thanks!
    Tiger

    Go to iCloud.com on a computer. To see them on your iPhone go to iCloud.com in Safari. Tap the URL field. Pull favorites down and tap request desktop site. Sign into your iCloud account. Now you can view iCloud Drive or Photos if you turned on iCloud Photo library.

  • How to sync iCloud photos on iPhone to new MacBook Air

    How can I sync the photos on my iPhone to my new MacBook Air? I have been assuming that when I back up my phone, my photos and videos are on my iCloud account and could, in principle, be synced to my MacBook Air. Is this possible?

    The iCloud backup is storing your Camera roll photos, but you can only use it to restore the iPhone.  See:  iCloud: Backup and restore overview
    Either connect the iPhone to a USB port and download your Camera Roll directly to iPhoto or Aperture, or enable the Photo Stream on your iPhone and on your mac. That will upload all photos from the Camera Roll to iCloud, and you can download them from the Photo Stream to iPhoto or Aperture. See:  iCloud: Photo Stream FAQ

  • How can I Move photos from Mac computer to iPhone

    I have no problem moving photos from the iPhone to my Mac using 'Image Capture.'
    Now, I would like to know how to move pictures from my Mac to the iPhone. I can pretty well imagine that I first need to set the pixel dimensions of whatever I'm going to transfer to the iPhone to the iPhone standard. To do that, I will take an unaltered iPhone pic on my Mac and read the dimensions to get the standard. Past that point I'm not sure what is the best way to move the picture onto the iPhone.
    Any recommendations on how to do this?
    TIA,
    Ken

    Here is what I found doing a search of similar topics:
    To sync photos from a folder on your hard disk to your device
    Drag the images you want into a folder on your computer. If you want images to appear in separate photo albums on your device, create folders inside the main folder and drag images into the new folders.
    In iTunes, select the device icon in the Devices list on the left.
    Choose "Sync photos from."
    Select Choose Folder from the pop-up menu and choose your main image folder.

  • How to install icloud in my mac

    how to install icloud in my mac

    Upgrade it to 10.7.2 or greater.
    Upgrading from Snow Leopard to Lion or Mountain Lion
    You can upgrade to Mountain Lion from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mountain Lion can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for $19.99.
    If you sign into the App Store and try to purchase Mountain Lion but the App Store says your computer is not compatible then you may still be able to upgrade to Lion per the following information.
    A. Upgrading to Mountain Lion
    To upgrade to Mountain Lion you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase and download Mountain Lion from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. The file is quite large, over 4 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
         OS X Mountain Lion - System Requirements
           Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
             1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 7,1 or later
             2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 5,1 or later
             3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 2,1 or later
             5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             7. Xserve (Early 2009) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
    To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
         Are my applications compatible?
             See App Compatibility Table - RoaringApps.
         For a complete How-To introduction from Apple see Upgrade to OS X Mountain Lion.
    B. Upgrading to Lion
    If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mountain Lion, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
    You can purchase Lion by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax.  It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
         Lion System Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
               or Xeon processor
           2. 2GB of memory
           3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
           4. 7GB of available space
           5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.

  • How to install iCloud on my Mac Pro.

    I want to install iCloud on my Mac Pro. I updated the software as requested and opened systems preference but I cant seem to find the iCloud icon. How do I add my Mac Pro to my iCloud devices? Thank you in advance for your help...
    V

    Open the Mac App Store and try purchasing Mountain Lion 10.8. If you get told it's incompatible, choose About this Mac from the Apple menu, check if the computer has at least a Core 2 Duo(not Core Duo) or better CPU with at least 2GB of RAM, and if it does, phone the online Apple Store and order a download code for Lion 10.7.
    A Mac Pro(not MacBook Pro) with at least 2GB of RAM automatically meets the requirements for Lion.

    I am assuming that you are referring to the 'install' button from within the Adobe Creative Cloud manager.  If so, I suggest you quit the application and re launch.  There may be an update, which will be detected when it launches.

  • How can i get photos from mac to ipad ? please

    hi all, i am in a mess !, some how a lot of photos have been deleted from my iPad, and i dont know how ?.
    However i do still have these photos on my MacBookPro but i dont remember how i got them onto my iPad originally, over 2 years ago (this is nothing to do with Photo Stream)
    So PLEASE PLEASE how do i get these photos back onto my iPad ?. I would rather not use iTunes, i think this may be why the photos have gone AWOL in the first place !!!.
    iTunes always seems to be so dammed complicated for my liking
    i have an APP called iExplorer but i cant work out how to get that to work, i can two Finder Windows, one for MacBookPro and one for iPad but something seems to be write (or read) protected, i can select all the photos on my MacBookPro in one window but i simply cannot drag them across to the iPad window !!!

    Hey Timmy,
    I use Dropbox to get my photos to/from my iPad to my computer wirelessly (no iTunes). The process below is one I posted a few weeks ago for the opposite process than what you're wanting to do (from iPad to computer) but Dropbox will work both ways. Just set up a Dropbox folder on your computer and set up the Dropbox app on your iPad and they will both be in sync automatically.
    Hope this helps!
    ~Joe
    ---from a post I did a few weeks ago---
    The Dropbox app has a very cool auto-upload process that will automatically upload photos from the iPad Camera Roll to Dropbox.
    First sign up for a free Dropbox account from your computer.
    Then, download the free Dropbox app on your iPad.
    Log in to the Dropbox app on the iPad with your new account and click on the Photos icon in the lower left corner of the screen (second one from the left).
    Select "Enable Camera Upload" and "Only Wi-Fi." The upload process will begin for all existing photos in the Camera Roll.
    From now on, all future photos taken by the iPad will automatically upload to the Dropbox folder. You can then download your photos from Dropbox to your computer by going to http://www.dropbox.com, logging in to your account, and downloading the photos. You can then put the photos on a USB drive or burn to a CD or upload them to a photo processing website.
    Hope this helps!

  • How do I transfer photos from mac to external hard drive please

    How do I transfer photos to a external hard drive please?

    This answer may need to be expanded a bit. If your photos are in iPhoto and you are moving iPhoto's library to an external drive, once you've dragged the library to the external drive you'll need to let iPhoto know the library has moved. Hold the option key and double-click iPhoto (or click on the iPhoto icon on the Dock). You'll get a fileselector menu to select the library - point it to the external drive. Once you've established that the copied library has copied correctly you may drag the library on your computer to the trash and empty the trash.
    Warning: You do have a backup of your entire computer, right? Just in case something goes awry with the process having a backup is always a good idea.
