    Downloading Photos is stalled.

    I'm trying to run a backup for Photos. It's stuck at "Downloading 10,248". This is out of 14,318 photos and 559 videos. I've got a Mac Mini (OS 15.6.1) that's wired to my router (wifi disabled) and I'm getting 300-350Mbps. I've tried pausing and unpausing. I've tried relaunching Photos...

    iCloud I'm confused

    I've got one of those stupid 32GB iPads because I wasn't smart enough to pay more for more memory. A few years ago when it filled up I signed up to iCloud to offload stuff automatically. Now I'm trying to get all of that off of iCloud and onto my mac. So I decided to sync it with Photos app on...

    Can’t create photo memories 4 days after restore says still analyzing photos

    My M4 ipad Pro had been able to create memories after updating to iPadOS 26, but I did a restore on it to try and fix a different issue. That was on Tuesday. It’s now Saturday and I still can’t create memories on it as it says it’s unavailable until there are more photos and videos available...

    Prevent Camera App From Dimming Pictures of Screens?

    I've had this issue for years now and never have figured out how to prevent the camera app from auto dimming (and making warmer) pictures I take of screens turned on. For example if I take a picture of a laptop with its display off the image will be normal but if I take a picture with is display...

    Photos and videos date on iPhone vs PC

    Photos and Videos on iPhone have a specific Date of when they were taken. And I take it very seriously. When I use iCloud for Windows, I can't seem to find a FIELD of the file that truly represents that date. Sometimes it is on the "Date taken". Sometimes that field is empty. And sometimes the...

    Photos Shared-Library Question

    I have a question re the storage implications of combining two personal photos libraries into one shared library. This would involve two iPhones, each with its own account and photos library. Each of these libraries (let’s say they’re 30GB and 50GB respectively) is duplicated in its own user...

    ProRAW Photos Soften Drastically Upon Editing - Anyone Else?

    Hi everyone, I've noticed something that's a bit frustrating with ProRAW photos on my iPhone 16 Pro Max. When I view a ProRAW image in the Photos app, it initially appears sharp and well-processed, almost like a really good HEIF Max image. However, the instant I tap "Edit," the image softens...

    Hello, After reformatting the drive and reinstalling Mavericks, I cannot start using my Shared Streams, which require iCloud. Aperture tells me to sign into iCloud despite my being signed into it. I use two Apple ID accounts; however, until the drive reformation, I had no issues using the...

    Why is photos taking up so much space?

    Photos is taking up a ton more space than I want. I have optimize photo storage on so I’d expect iCloud to remove the photos when my storage gets too full. Right now it’s telling me I can’t update my phone because there’s not enough storage to download the update. It’s been saying that since...

    Airdropped pics now buried in camera roll. Any suggestions?

    Since this iOS 18 update and the change to the photos app I’ve noticed that if I airdrop a pic from my Mac to my iPhone the pic falls into my camera roll by date, making it tough to find. Prior to iOS 18, any pic I airdropped was my newest pic in my camera roll and easy to find. Now, if the pic...

    I have seen in the Apple community that there are reports that this has been happening for many years, has Apple still not solved it? Does it happen to anyone else? Is there a solution?
