    Dreaded "Photos has found inconsistencies in this library" message

    This is a new one to me, though I am familiar with several similar messages we sometimes get when trying to upgrade/migrate an iPhoto/Photos Library. In this case, nothing I've tried has helped at all, and I've tried all the usual techniques (⌘-⌥ while opening library, etc.) My question is...

    Hello! In my library, at the bottom it says I have 98,508 photos, 6,649 videos, and 2 items. What the heck is an item? Does anyone have any idea what that could be or how I could filter it down to find them? Google not being very helpful. Thanks in advance!

    Which apps will scan photos using NeuralHash? Photos? Notes?

    When iOS 15 is available I'm going to disable iCloud sync for the Photos app. If I want to prevent Apple from searching my device completely, are there any other apps where I need to disable iCloud? What about Apple Notes? I have some notes that link to or embed images.

    Photos App Filters Outdated?

    I don’t remember the last time the filters in the Photos app got a refresh, but I feel like they’re due for one. I think Apple could really blow us all away with some professional options instead of what feels like 2010 Instagram looks.

    Photos" Confusion and Best of all worlds

    Background: 1) I was a fan of Picasa. Quick photo viewer, great for a 'folder only slideshow. 2) I'm still in the folders and files world, so would prefer that my photos remain in this format. I can simply go to "2012-> FIFA World Cup -> Finals photos" and see photos. If Apple Photos open...

    Hi! I''ve suffered this behavior a few months since I bought an iPad Pro (2020). Turns out that the screenshots I take on iOS become like this on any Photos app (Mac or iOS): This happens randomly just by viewing the photos on the app. Funny thing is the file itself is fine; if I drag and...

    Solution for Shared Media Library with Spouse

    I want a shared photo/video library that both my wife and I can access on our devices, as well a something that will automatically sync new content (or at least allow for upload). This rules out Apple Photos and iCloud Files. Is Dropbox a good solution these days? Open to suggestions.

    iCloud Photos: Faces/people not syncing correctly across devices

    I’m trying to have the same set of images for each person in the People section in Photos across my Mac, iPhone and iPad. I know this is supposed to work via iCloud, but it’s not 100% consistent. When I change the person in a photo (from an unnamed one to one that is already named), sometimes...

    Best way to mass upload photos to icloud?

    What's the best way to upload archived photos onto icloud? I'd like to do this because I tend to look back at photos from time to time and it's easier to access them on my iPhone than say going into my NAS.

    Always saved as "thumbnail".

    I am trying to free up some space on my 2018 15" Mac Book Pro as I keep getting reminders that my disk space is getting low. I thought quick way was to move all my 700+ photos on to my external 1Tb hard drive. Every time I do this they are only saved on the hard drive as little 200-300Kb...
