The new Yosemite Photos app local storage usage question

Hi,
Did anyone check the local storage usage for the new Photos on Yosemite?
How much space does it take for all the lores photos locally if the originals are stored in iCloud.
Lets say if 100GB of RAW files are migrated from Aperture in to Photos to cloud. This should be 100GB in the cloud and how much on OS X?
Can a RAW file still be downloaded from cloud later or are they transformed to jpgs once uploaded?
What if there is not enough storage for all lores photos on iOS or OS X representing all the original iCloud photos?
I'm really puzzled about this.
Thanks

I just installed the Yosemite upgrade with Photos. I don't use Aperture of the iCloud, but the iPhotos library migrated with about the same disk space, but it is doubled, because the old iPhoto library is still on disk.

I can't delete my photos in the new iOS7 photo app.

Hi,
I can't delete my photos in the new iOS7 photo app. I tried shutting the app down and opening it again, but it doesn't help. What should I do?
Thanks

I had this problem to but I figured it out. Basically the photos are there because your photos on your computer are synced into your phone differently, not sure how it works. But plug in your phone to your computer, open itunes, click on your phone, go to photos and uncheck the "Sync Photos from:" Option at the top. A message should pop up asking whether you want to keep or remove the photos already on your phone. Click remove, and there you go

Cannot see Collections and Years views in new Yosemite Photos app

Hi there,
I've just upgraded from Mavericks to Yosemite to get the new Photos app, and so far it hasn't quite been the experience I was hoping for. My current issue is that nowhere can I see the "Collections" and "Years" views that were so prominent in the marketing material - just "Moments". There doesn't seem to be any way to toggle, even via the Sidebar.
If I look in Activity Monitor, I can see that Photos is using a lot of CPU (and has been for 12+ hours) - is it doing some sort of initial indexing before it can show me those other views?
Anyway, hoping someone here can help.
Thanks,
James

In the Photos view, click the back arrow on the toolbar.

Why won't the Camera and Photos apps work? I can't access my photos or take new ones.

I can no longer take new photos, or access my camera roll or photo stream from within the camera or photos apps.
Several days ago I took an HDR photo and the phone became unresponsive on the "saving" dialog with the progress loop rolling. After 15 minutes, and multiple attempts at getting it un-hung, I forced a restart of the phone. Since then, whenever I take a picture, the app disappears and drops me on the home screen right after the "iris" graphic clicks on the screen. The same app crash happens when I simply try to look at previously saved pictures in either the camera or photos apps. Since then I have synched the phone, and performed a factory reset, and neither has fixed the problem. Has anyone else experienced this? How do I get use of my camera back?

I'm having the same problem, but am traveling for business right now so all I can do is restart the phone. I don't live near an Apple store either, so I don't know how I'll get it fixed. Any suggestions would be appreciated!

With the new Yosemite update (10.10.3) I can no longer transfer my photographs into Adobe Photoshop Elements by the previously expedient 'click and drag' method. Neither am I able to import or export them. Does anyone have suggestion on moving them?

Ah yes school boy error there out of frustration and discontent..
My issue is with music/apps/films etc not downloading from iTunes / App Store.
They initially fail and message is displayed stating unable to download / purchase at this time, yet if I retry it says I've already purchased (?) or alternatively I go to the purchased section and there they are waiting with the cloud symbol..
However some items get frozen in the download window and cannot be retried or deleted. Message appears stating to tap to retry, but even if you stole every bath and sink in the uk you'd still not have enough taps.
I post here as the iTunes guys are useless in there 'help' and have only advised posting here or phoning apple, at my expense, to explain a problem that could be rectified by forwarding my original email to a techie. However the tech team apparently don't have an email address as they're from ye olde Middle Ages..!
Anyways I digress.
So I tried sync to pc, but instead of showing the file as ready to listen/use/view, the iCloud symbol shows and I'm back to square one as the item is unable to download..
At frustration station waiting for a train from pain...
All my software is up to date, and had all worked fine prior to the last big iOS update that resulted in all the changes in display and dismay.
Answers in a postcard :-)
Much love

After installing the new Yosemite OS on my iMac I can no longer send email. I can receive email, but not send. I use gmail and can send email on the gmail (google) site, but not on "mail" on my iMac. Any others with this problem? What should we do?

After installing the new Yosemite OS on my iMac I can no longer send email. I can receive email, but not send. I use gmail and can send email on the gmail (google) site, but not on "mail" on my iMac. Any others with this problem? What should we do?

My gmail, which is correctly configured for Mail with gmail SMTP and Google IMAP, works for awhile on Mail, which I leave open while working on other applications. But several times a day I get msg from Google: "We recently blocked a sign-in attempt to your Google Account" . . . and requiring me to verify my account details, re-enter passwords, confirm security settings (or change them from "disable" to "enable less secure methods" and so on). In Mail I also have tried "taking all accounts online", and re-entering my gmail password inside Mail account settings. These steps successfully re-set comms between gmail and Mail ... for awhile, then it happens again. Enough occurrences over a work day that I just quit Mail and revert to accessing gmail directly. Apple Care advisor and an Apple knowledge base article say that Apple can't deal with this, as gmail is third-party app, and they refer me to gmail, and so far I've found nothing helpful there.
From today I also have several instances of a window saying "Mail has unexpectedly closed" and asking me to Re-open it.
I also use Yahoo mail, which stops working with Mac Mail at the same time as gmail, but I do not receive notices to re-verify from Yahoo.
I recently upgraded from Mavericks to Yosemite. The Mail problem happened occasionally with Mavericks but is far more frequent with Yosemite.

The new firefox twitter app is great - except it disappears every time I shut down the computer and I have to remove and then reinstall it every day!?? I am working on an iMac - if that is causing the problem ...? Thanks.

The new firefox twitter app (mini tab on left of page) is great - except it disappears every time I shut down the computer and I have to remove and then reinstall it every day!?? It won't appear on the page until I do. I am working on an iMac - if that is causing the problem ...? Thanks.

Eustace, thank you so much for writing back. I will try what you suggested!!
thx for your reply - apparently when I went to the Apple store a long time ago, they restore maybe photos and itunes etc from my external hard drive (passport). I guess at that time they reinstalled an earlier operating system than my macbook came with and that somehow corrupted FileVault. apparently there was no sparse bundle (whatever that is) for my old admin account and they said that ever since the install of the older OS that it was actually NEVER backing up anything in my admin account.
Then, I bought Time Capsule and starting backing up to that instead. I started having problems with it being slow etc and then StartUp Disk full errors and didn't know what to do, so I "Restored" from Time Capsule and that's when I lost everything in my Admin account and was locked out when I tried to log in - it said File Vault error ..."
anyway - that's THAT sad story. I was told to create a new admin account and I've basically been trying to start over - even though I have a partial save of my computer in Crash Plan and I DO see a sparse bundle listed in there, but I just don't know enough about computers to know if it's something I can get back or if I am just totally doomed.
I'm afraid to reinstall anything because if there is even a remote shot that the other files are still floating around in my computer, I feel like that chance will be shot forever. I need to hire McGee from NCIS, I just KNOW he could get those files back for me!!!

Can the new pre installed apps in iPad 2. Like garage band, iMovie be sync back to i tune, and then sync these new apps from ipad2 to the old iPad 1?

GB and iMovie pre installed?
http://www.apple.com/ipad/built-in-apps/
Click: Browser All Built In Apps
iMovie and GB must be purchased.
If you have installed GB and iMovie on the iPad 1 and synced using iTunes, just sync the those apps to the newer iPad with iTunes. No re purchase necessary with the same iTunes account.

Why does my Illustrator or photoshop are not want to open on my MacBook Pro now that I installed the new Yosemite operating system?

I downloaded the new Yosemite operating system on my MacBook Pro last night and this morning my straighter does not want to open. When I click on the icon to open it gives me an air message sending me to download a legacy format of Java generation SE and when I do you download and install it, even after refreshing the. MacBook several times I still don't get any positive results as far as having the software open. Does somebody know why and what I can do so that I can run my existing programs from Adobe with my new Apple Yosemite operating system. I am drowning here

The easiest way is to go to the Apple site and find the Java for OSX 2014-001 and install it. There have been some reports of blank pages returned so you may need to try several browsers.

How can I download the new Apple health app on my ipad mini?

Anybody else have a child with autism who is NOT happy about the new YOU TUBE app with upgrade. Now the ipad just sits there. Unfair of Apple not to give us option to downgrade to old softare.

We bought the Ipad 2 for our son who has autism. It was the first time he had something he was interested in (besides my Iphone) and we were so excited to see him carry around something that he loved. I upgraded to the new software and as everybody as discovered...NO YOU TUBE. I got the new You Tube app but it's so different and hard to use. This has created such a problem for us and besides the games he likes to play....the Ipad is useless. Now it sits and he uses an old phone someone gave us with the old you tube on it. We have this expensive machine sitting there and he is using an old iphone. I myself have tried to get familiar with the new You Tube app and it's so hard to use and doesn't always play videos. Apple is suppsed to be so supportive of the autism community and has sold MILLIONS of products to families affected by autism and now they don't give us an option to downgrade to the old software in order to regain the OLD YOU TUBE icon. Children with autism like things routine and familiar. This is NOT familiar nor is it easy to use. I'm sure we aren't the only family with a special needs child upset by this change.

YouTube now has an app:
https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/youtube/id544007664?mt=8
or
http://m.youtube.com/
Sign in with your YouTube ID. Save that site on your iPad's Home screen.

What camera/microphone will work with the new Yosemite telephone

I have a older mac and am going to buy a camera/mic to install so when the new Yosemite x comes out I will be able to answer my phone from the computer. Does anyone have any suggestions as to which camera/mic to purchase for this?

I would expect the Yosemite list to be about the same as what is well-supported today.
This guy (Mac Gizmo guy) has done some research and lists on his site cameras that work with Macs AND are available on amazon.com.
I believe his recommendations are accurate, BUT -- Full Disclosure: gets some payments from amazon for his service.

I just received my new Mac Mini and want to migrate files from my Time Machine. I assume the old OS is on Time machine and I don't want it to supersede the new Yosemite OS. Do I have to Do anything special?

Using Migrations Assistant will only move the data and other things over, it will not bring over a previous version of the Os since the 2014 model can run anything earlier than Yosemite.
