Download VERIFIED Google Photos To Hard Drive

I like the way Google photos organizes my photos and makes it easy to search by who is in the photo, date, or other key features. Is there a way to use this sort of feature applied to a computer hard drive?

I use lightroom mobile on my iPhone and the photos sync through to the copy of lightroom on my desktop as they should. I'd like to be able to create a backup copy of these on the physical hard drive of the mac separate from the copy in lightroom mobile, in case anything happens to my iPhone - that way they'd be picked up on the mac's regular time machine backup (or I could copy off the raw images onto a DVD if I chose).

Just to be a bit more precise, on the Lightroom mobile tab in Preferences (Lightroom>Preferences on Mac, Edit>Preferences on PC), in the Location section you specify where the photos synced from LrM will be stored on your hard drive. By default they are stored in a .lrdata database in your user folder. I recommend changing this to instead store them with the rest of your photos. Changing this setting will change the location for future syncs. For past ones, use the Folders panel in the Library m

I am trying to import photos directly from my external harddrive into lightroom while I keep it plugged in. I don't have enough space on my computer so I'm trying to import it directly from my external hard drive, however when I try to import it, it says I don't have enough space on my computer hard drive.

Hello Victoria. How are you? Recently I had a problem with my hard drive and I lost some files. I got the plugin to save the images, but not all of them came with a good size. Is there any way to resolve this? All have visual intelligence.

Important: When importing for the first time, think through how you want to organize your photos and where you plan to store them before you start to import. Planning ahead can help minimize the need to move photos later and possibly lose track of them in your catalog.

Select the photos that you want to import from the previewarea in the center of the import window. A check mark in the upper-leftcorner of the thumbnail indicates that the photo is selected forimport.

If you're importing photos by moving or copying them, specify where to put them: In the upper-right corner of the window, click To and choose a location for the photos. Or click a location in the Destination panel and specify other options:

Folder names that are italicized in the Destination panel indicate new folders that will be created when you import. Review the Destination panel carefully to help ensure that you are correctly importing the photos to your intended location.

How do you transfer photos directly from camera to external hard drive? I have an Iomega external hard drive and am happy with it so far. Will probably need to get another external- so am open to suggestions. I have Canon EOS 7d.

Nope. A normal external hard drive needs something in between to communicate; i.e. something with an operating system. What you should look for instead is a Portable Storage Device. Ask your question on the Storage & Media forum. Not quite the same thing, as it requires removing the card and inserting it into the PSD for copying, but far cheaper than the wireless transmitter and not quite as expensive as a laptop (though close in price to a netbook).

For less than $100, buy a large CF card and be happy. What are you trying to do with a hard drive output, anyway? If you really needed it, $1,000 for the WFT and a few hard drives should be quite affordable.

I do not like it, because it means having a cable dangling from the camera and a hard drive exposed to the environment. If you drop the hard drive, get wet, or loose the cable connection, you risk damaging the hard drive or halting the process of writing from the camera buffer to the hard drive. At least on the 1D, if the external connection is interrupted, the process of writing to the CF card also stops. When the price of CF media is so cheap, it is better to buy a memory card that is more durable than a hard drive, in addition to being smaller and much more lightweight.

If you mean: upload to the computer and saving it directly on the external drive (without using the iternal HDD of the PC) than a card reader and anything like Windows Explorer will simply do the trick.

If you mean without computer (laptop or PC) then it will be harder as both the camera and the external drive are designed to be just a slave of another device (PC) and not capable of directing another device.

All in my humble opionion of course!

The idea of backing up digital photos to a hard drive while traveling, without having to bring along a laptop computer, has been at the back of my mind for over a year. I'll soon be in Brazil for three weeks , so this question percolated again to the surface. Searching anew for an answer, I landed at this forum and found michelephoto's query. I think I may have found a solution to this that meshes with my requirements and sensibilities, although I'm not sure that michelephoto will also embrace it. It's probably not as direct or simple as she hoped for, for one thing. Another caveat is that I haven't implemented this already, so I cannot promise that it acutally works. Nevertheless, this scheme seems promising enough that I will be trying it soon, and I will certainly report on the outcome at this forum. Please read on.

First, some background. I use Apple computers and mobile devices only, so I have no experience with the Android OS, and only minimal familiarity with Windows. Anyone familiar with iPad is well aware that the idea of transferring data from the iPad to an external USB drive is only a pipe dream, as no version of iPad is equipped with a USB or mini USB port (a USB adaptor is available, but the range of external devices that iPad will recognize is restricted, and certainly does not include USB storage devices). So, I searched Google using the phrase "Tablet computers with USB port." Nice, it seems that virtually all Android and Windows tablets have at least a mini USB port. Then, I queried something like "connecting a USB hard drive to Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 SM-T210," which led to an interesting post (23 Aug 2013, user damnnew) on a forum at a tablet developer's website (xda-developers.com): SM-T210 or SM-T210R "doesn't support 'host mode' which is quite frustrating for those who like to plug in their USB devices"...but, "Galaxy Tab 2.7.0 does support this feature." This gave me a glimmer of hope, so I kept browsing. I next watched a YouTube video in which user "AndroidFixation" demonstrates that a Samsung Galaxy USB adaptor kit works well with a flash drive, but not with a USB hard drive (the attached HD is recognized by the tablet, but it does not mount the device and allow access to its contents). Next, I don't recall how, I landed at the support site for users of Toshiba tablets ( =3462040), where I found the following:

"Toshiba tablets require any external hard drive connected through USB to be formatted using exFAT. Many external hard drives by default are formatted NTFS and won't be recognized by the tablet when connected. Note: FAT32 formatted external hard drives can be recognized by the tablet when connected. No need to format to exFAT)."

This is followed by a tutorial that describes the steps necessary to accomplish this with a Toshiba Thrive tablet equipped with Android 4.0 (discontinued but still obtainable; current models are the Excite and Encore families of tablets), a Toshiba Canvio 750 GB hard drive, and a Toshiba Satellite P775D laptop running Windows 7.

The important point to note is that here's a tablet manufacturer that's providing its users with explicit technical information on how to connect an external USB hard drive to its tablets. Presumably, if Toshiba supports this, then it must also be possible to access the attached hard drive for data transfer - otherwise, why bother? Toshiba makes many different tablets, some that use Android and others that use Windows. I don't know if the information above applies to both operating systems on Toshiba tablets, or only one. Nor do I know if the simply remedy of merely connecting an external USB hard drive that has been properly formatted is also the missing link for doing the same with tablets from other manufacturers. This will require further investigation. But in the meantime, it is reassuring to know that there seems to be at least one legitimate (manufacturer sanctioned and supported) solution to this problem.

The above provides only half of the solution sought by michelephoto. Now here's the other half. If you already own a Canon or Nikon DSLR, this part is easy. Treat yourself to a CamRanger ($299). It's best if you visit the website, , for all the details. In a nutshell, CamRanger is a small battery powered router that plugs into the mini USB port of your DSLR and transmits data over a WiFi network to your mobile device - Android tablet, iPad, iPhone, etc. It allows full remote control of ALL camera functions, including focusing and including Live View for video. It also allows you to automatically transmit your images to your mobile device "on the fly," either as thumbnail or full sized, full resolution images. Your photos or videos are always stored, as usual, on your internal memory cards. The advantages of this kind of setup are numerous and exciting, but I'll leave it to CamRanger to finish the task of selling you on this idea. Personally, I can't wait! ff782bc1db
