~UPD~ Download 1000 Photos From Icloud
Avis Whitelow
New feature idea: That would be a good thing if Apple/iCloud would allow in the future to download ALL photos from the cloud in one big zip file (or several small chunks), in one simple process, instead of having to use this kind of solution.
A second method is export photos from system photo library to a desired location say download folder in finder and connect an external hard drive to the Mac , then transfer the photos from download folders into the external hard drive , hence all your photo data is saved .
You can select few photos see this article Select and deselect photos in Photos on Mac - Apple Support and delete to recently deleted folder see this article Delete photos or recover deleted ones in Photos on Mac - Apple Support ( its your choice to delete them permanently immediately or after 30 days the photos will be removed from the iCloud server ) .
Note : there is no way to select more than 1000 photos , the photo application will hang , you have to perform the steps multiple times , in case if icloud storage is low upgrade the storage plan Upgrade to iCloud+ - Apple Support
You can also select multiple photos in iCloud by selecting moments. Click on the small plus sign in the top right corner of one of the moments. Voila! All the pictures in your moment are selected. You can download photos from iCloud to PC.
I am trying to reduce / limit my iCloud storage need to below 200gb, but it is hard. Apple photos alone takes up 190gb and growing. I can delete the photos on iCloud but I believe I would not get update photos taken from iPhone and would not be able to share with iPad and other apple devices.
It may not be as smooth as iCloud,but you can choose Smugmug or Zenfolio. You can auto upload all your photos and videos and theybdo have unlimited photo storage features. You can share to anyone from their websites and have more granular control if you want too.
The iXpand is available with 16 GB, 32 GB, 64 GB and 128 GB. The 128 GB version I have has room for a lot of photos! A photo from an iPhone 6S plus is around 2 MB. That means you can store over 60.000 photos on the 128 GB model. Let's take this one step further. If you would shoot, let's say, 1000 photos a day you could store 2 months of photos on the 128 GB iXpand. I only take 1000-2000 photo a week during my trips. So I could backup over 6 months of photos from my iPhone.
Once I get home, I plug the stick into my Synology Diskstation and copy the photos from the stick to the Synology Diskstation. From there, they're backed up to two additional, external, harddisks. That's the paranoid part, I guess.
The iXpand app also helps you to backup your social media photos that you've shared with your friends and even can backup the contacts from the iPhone. And finally, If you store other file types, e.g. PDFs on the stick, you can share them from the stick to other apps and send them via email for example.
Based on the feedback from most Apple users' experiences, uploading 1000 photos to iCloud can take up to 6 to 8 hours. A poor internet connection can significantly extend the time required for uploads. But you can pause and later resume the process according to your schedule.
The average iCloud storage can only store a limited amount of photos. That is why many users are now finding a way to manage their photos more efficiently. One of the most effective ways to do that is by transferring their photos elsewhere. Of course, you might need to do this because your iPhone pictures missing from the camera roll.
