In fact, there’s no communication at all from the app about how it manages its own storage space.
There’s no button for me to press to put Photos in Austerity Mode, no interface to force it to slim down what it’s using. That’s a lot, especially when you’re supposed to render an HD video in Final Cut Pro, but you can’t because you’re out of disk space. This thought occurred to me when I was fishing a file out of my Pictures folder and noticed that my Photos library takes up 46GB of my precious iMac SSD storage space. That’s as it should be, but a few optional controls for the control freaks among us wouldn’t be the worst thing in the world. In true Apple fashion, Photos protects the user from thinking about managing storage - everything happens automatically, with absolutely no intervention from the user. 1 It does this by syncing the entire library to iCloud Photo Library 2 and then dynamically loading and unloading photos as you use it. One of the more interesting features of Photos for Mac is its ability to not store my entire photo library on my Mac’s drive.
Open the Apple menu on your computer running macOS Sierra or newer.We are investigating resolutions for this in future versions. This results in a situation where Mylio does not display images that you may expect to see, or you are able to see in Finder.Īt this time, it is recommended that you do not use Apple’s Storage Optimization features in conjunction with Mylio as it can cause apparent data loss (though not actual data loss as your photos are in iCloud). The removal of this file from Mylio is then synced to your protected devices and other devices on your account. When this happens, Mylio loses access to the original file, resulting in Mylio not seeing the photo is there and being removed from Mylio. MacOS Sierra and newer include an option that will automatically optimize storage on your local drive by removing data and storing it in iCloud.
