ICloud photos library for Photos app Yosemite sync issues

Strangely, after enabling iCloud photos library on Photos app. It does sync all the lowres image into Photos app but the downloading of hires is always stuck.
Even if I leave it to sync overnight and it just stay the same until the next morning.
Anyone has facing the same issues?
Thanks.

After two weeks I'm on my 6th attempt (6th from-scratch library) just trying to get the download and sync features to work. As of this morning the sync appears to be working but the fact that after 12 hours of "downloading" my library of 53,000 images is only 9 gigabytes, I'd say, yes, my high-resolution images are not coming down either. I have definitely set to download originals to my Mac.

  • Am I correct, if I presume that Photo stream IS the iCloud storage device for photos?

    Is Photo-stream the iCloud storage device for photos?

    Photo Stream is a photo sync service between your computers and devices. That's not designed as a storage service, because photos uploaded to Photo Stream are deleted 30 days after adding them to it. If you want to see more limitations, see > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4858?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US

  • HT204655 Can you use the new photos library for iPhoto to save space

    I want to use the same library for photos and iPhoto because that way it will use a fraction of the space. Is that possible.

    When you open the iPhoto library with Photos for the first time it will convert it to a Photos library.  However, there is not a duplication of files or lost space on the HD. This is because the Photos library uses hard links to the original files in the iPhoto Library thus not duplicating files or taking up more space on the HD even though it may see so in the Finder. 
    I suggest you keep the iPhoto application and library until you're sure the Photos app and library will suit your needs.  Photos is missing many features that iPhoto has which many of rely on heavily.  You may find that Photos isn't for you right now and you want to continue using iPhoto until those missing features are restored.

  • When you back up your Iphone/Ipad it backs up for camera roll. but when you take pictures and it uses photo stream, does that mean there are two copy's of your photos on icloud one set for photo stream and one set for backups?

    What do you mean by storage quota, does that mean i could be photo streaming about 1gb of photos and it does not get taken away from my free 5bg.

  • Preparing my photo library for the beta Photos is taking the better part of a week. Is this normal?

    The process of "preparing" my photo library for the beta Photos is taking the better part of a week. Is this normal?  I have around 2000 photos the iPhoto library I am uploading.

    How are you preparing the library?  The only thing I would do to prepare for converting to Photos once it's released would be the following:
    1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down to open the First Aid window. Be sure to follow the circled recommendation in the screenshot.
    2 - run Option #1, Repair Permissions.
    3 - run Option #4, Rebuild Database.
    Do this just prior to launching Photos for the first time.

  • 'Photos Library Recovered Photos' folder in Pictures

    After a successful iPhoto to Photos migration, I have noticed a folder in 'HD > Users > xxxx > Pictures'  - titled 'Photos Library Recovered Photos'.
    The folder contains 112 images.
    When I open the Photos.app all my photos from my previous iPhoto Library seem to be there and everything is functioning correctly.
    So why has this folder appeared and where have these images come from?

    Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
    Look there for a Folder called 'Import' or 'Importing'.
    Drag it to the Desktop. *Make no other changes*.
    Start iPhoto. Does that help?
    If it does then look inside that folder on your desktop. Does it contain anything you want? If not you can trash the folder.
    Regards

  • What is "Photo Library" in Photos application?

    I think this happened since upgrading to iLife 09, but I'm not sure.
    I used to have two albums in Photos: Camera Roll and iPod. The latter is an album in iPhoto and I have iTunes set to sync with just that album.
    But now I have three albums in Photos: Camera Roll, iPod and Photo Library.
    Photo Library's contents are exactly the same as iPod.
    But where did it come from? There is no album in iPhoto called "Photo Library" or any album set to sync except for the album called iPod.
    Anybody have any idea?
    Thanks,
    doug

    Not sure why "Photo Library" was not available on your iPhone previously, which was not normal.
    This has nothing to do with which iLife or iPhoto version you are using, or if you have selected all photos in your iPhoto library to be transferred, or just one iPhoto album, or several iPhoto albums.
    All photos transferred to your iPhone via the iTunes sync process are stored in your iPhone's Photo Library - regardless how many photos are selected to be transferred or the number of different folders or albums of photos are selected to be transferred.
    I have a number of iPhoto albums selected to be transferred to my iPhone. All photos in all albums are stored in my iPhone's Photo Library. The photos in the albums below are not duplicated. The photos in the different albums include a link or pointer to the original photos stored in the iPhone's Photo Library. This way, you can view the photos in a particular album only by selecting the album, or all photos available in all albums by selecting Photo Library.
    The filing structure for iPhoto, iTunes, and the Address Book on your Mac is the same.
    You can't place a photo in an iPhoto album without the photo being available in your main iPhoto library, and a photo can be available in multiple iPhoto albums without being duplicated. Delete a photo from your iPhoto library that is available in an iPhoto album and the photo will no longer be available in the album either.
    The filing structure for iTunes playlists and for Address Book Groups is the same.
    There is nothing wrong with your iPhone now, but there was something wrong with it before if your iPhone didn't have a Photo Library, which is where all photos transferred from your computer are stored on your iPhone.

  • How do you delete photos from the photo library and photo stream?

    I have photos that were sent to me by email that I accidently saved to my phone. I would like to delelte the photos but there is no "trash" in the Photo Stream or Photo Library.  I cannot figure how to delete the photos.

    You cannot delete photos from photo library. Photo library is just a huge view of every photo on your iPhone. It is not meant to be deleted unless you do it from iPhoto. However, the only way to delete photo library off your iPhone is to also delete the photos you synced. Think of photo library as you would with your iTunes library: it is just a giant list view of all your music (photos). But then you have playlists (albums) which organize the photos. Also, the photos are not duplicates. When you view a photo from an album, it is the same photo as in your photo library. It's just a shortcut. It takes up no space. However, photos saved from an email should be saved in your camera roll and can be deleted. As for photostream; if you go into it, and hit edit, you can select photos to be deledted. To delete the whole photostream, go to the list of photostreams and hit the blue arrow on the right of the name and you should see an option to delete the photostream. Hope this helped! Good luck.

  • There were some updates on my Apps.  I updated them on my iTunes but my iPad did not get the same downloads/updates thru iCloud.  Does the iCloud only works for "New" Apps or Books downloaded from the store but not the "Updates"?

    There were some updates on my Apps.  I updated them on my iTunes but my iPad did not get the same downloads/updates thru iCloud.  Does the iCloud only works for "New" Apps or Books downloaded from the store but not the "Updates"?

    Purchased music does not count against your iCloud storage and you cannot get rid of them in the purchased tab.
    What is backed up
    You get unlimited free storage for:
    Purchased music, movies, TV shows, apps, and books
    Notes: Backup of purchased music is not available in all countries. Backups of purchased movies and TV shows are U.S. only. Previous purchases may not be restored if they are no longer in the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBookstore.
    Some previously purchased movies may not be available in iTunes in the Cloud. These movies will indicate that they are not available in iTunes in the Cloud on their product details page in the iTunes Store. Previous purchases may be unavailable if they have been refunded or are no longer available in the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBookstore.

  • Want to define the photo dimension for photo upload

    Hi,
    I want to define the photo dimensions for photo upload in attachments on external candidate profile page in e-recruitment module. However, i have checked in SPRO in attachment node but not able to explore this functionality.
    Kindly help.

    Unfortunately, you cannot check the dimensions of attached documents with this BAdI, but it can be used as a starting point for your further verification.

  • TIMECODES are important for audio and video sync issues

    Hello, just wanted to pass on what I learned so that others can avoid the trouble that I've had to go through. Perhaps this may help someone who is stuck on the launch pad. :)
    BOTTOM LINE: Info for the beginner. Audio and video not in sync in Premiere Pro CS3 V3.2.0
    PROBLEM: Capture works great it seems. When I go to the folder that contains the captured file and view in Windows Media Player audio and video are in sync. BUT when viewing the video asset in the source and program monitors, the audio and video are not in sync.
    SOLUTION:
    Before capturing a tape make certain the following is checked:
    (1) Edit->Preferences->Capture->Use device control timecode
    (2) Edit->Preferences->Device Control->Options->Timecode Format
    (3) Project->Project Settings->General->Video->Display format
    As for the devices timecode choose something other than Auto Detect. Then match the project timecode with what was chosen during capture. The projects display format could of course be set to frames.
    I searched everywhere for audio and video sync issues in google, adobe forums, F1 help, and hv20.com and everyone was talking about:
    (1) Presets: 1080p30 vs. 1080i30 (60i).
    (2) brakes in the tape where timecode for the audio and video get misaligned during capture.
    But choosing the correct hardware settings and timecodes to solve audio and video sync issues never popped up.
    MY HARDWARE: Canon HV30, HDV

    >Audio and video not in sync in Premiere Pro CS3 V3.2.0
    Must be an HDV only issue because my synch is always perfect.

  • Icloud photo library on windows pc not syncing

    I have an iPhone 6 and activated iCloud Photo Library.  I downloaded and installed iCloud for Windows on two different PCs.   Neither of those PCs have all of the photos in their iCloud Photo Library that are on my phone.   There are 316 pictures on the phone, while one PC has 110 photos and the other has 151 photos.  The most recent photos on the PCs are from March 28th, which is about 3 weeks ago.   Obviously the syncing is "stuck" but I haven't been able to unstick it. I have tried turning off iCloud Photo Library in the iCloud control panel on the PC and then turning it back on.   that doesn't help.

    It lets me do that but when I go there it says to turn on iCloud Photo Library on my iOS device, even though I have already done so. I can't do anything until it recognizes that I have a device with iCloud Photo Library.
