That is copy, not move. The fact that Apple does not give you the option to move is just one thing that shows that Apple is in extreme problems. They don't even notice that they are becoming the. haters cartoon.

What if I create an album and then delete from photos does is it gone? How can I organize my photos on files?

I’m confused because when I transfer all my pictures and videos from my phone storage, they still show up on my storage titled ICloud Drive so what’s the difference? Because it still shows up on my storage? 🤔

I’m planning to use iCloud to store about 2tb of video when I’m on the go then buy a hard drive to transfer it. It will cost $15 for a month but I will cancel my plan after 1 month. Will this work?

But can you download them later in the original file size/ resolution for projects ?

[claudylings]

On Android items are already in files, why Apple? Why?

Thank you. Just what I needed because I kept getting messages my storage was almost full

[anilkumar]

Are the photos just copied to the iCloud files app? Is it cut and paste or just copying and keeping the original in photos?

Thanks, this explanation is exactly what I was looking for.

I have my photos in a folder in my files but Im having troubles figuring out how to rearrange the photos in the order that I want all that the files shows are the options to arrange them by date, size, and kind. Does anyone know how I can possibly arrange them differently

If I save photos from files to photo roll but then delete it in files app will it also be deleted in photos roll?? Cause I just saved a video from files to photo roll but then deleted it in files, the video is still in photo roll, wondering if it may be deleted later on or something

Once there in the files app, how do you preview a group of images in the Files App?

[derricknguyen]

Thanks cause I need it on Flipaclip cause I’m tired of just using a DIFFRENT device and turning it up in volume and let it sit there

So you have to remember which file you selected when selecting many, or you may delete files that have not been saved. After transfer, my files become unhighlighted, which makes it hard to know which files I can delete. Not too much of a problem, a long time to do just 15 selections..

How do you save the videos from iPhone photo gallery to iCloud in its full resolution without having any compression? I have videos recorded in 4K. Whenever I copy to iCloud, iOS will compress the file before performing the copy. Any idea how to handle this? I would like the video file in its original file size. Thanks!

Nice Informative video but I had a question which u touched base on in beginning of video about keep original data, if u just transfer over to files it loses date created & all camera info etc. What do u need 2 do or select to keep original data intact. On an iPad 5 th generation, but can also transfer over to an iPhone max prob13, if it makes a difference, no accessible laptop or desktop. Any help is appreciated & I continue to google as well. Thank U!

Why need to save to files and upload to iCloud when you can automatically upload. I don’t want to sync with iCloud. I want to save to flash drive because I don’t want to upgrade my iCloud. How do we do that?

Thank you, you have no idea how much this helped me
