Why, after importing photos from my iPhone to my Mac, can I NOT upload those photos to eBay??? The appear in my photo app when I go to it, but they don't appear when I try to add them in eBay. Something is very wrong with this!!!
MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 10.13
Interesting. Are you using Big Sur? I just upgraded from High Sierra to Catalina 3 days ago. I do not see a Finder > Preferences > Sidebar item named "Media."
@Todezwis, if you want to use the export method, simply open Photos; from the menu choose File > Export. You can export edited versions or unmodified originals and adjust the size if you like.
Some website uploaders have a drag & drop functionality. You might also be able to drag photo from the Photos app into the upload window, but I am not sure. I always use the export method.

It's there. But you have to access it from a browser.
Try the following:
1 - in safari go to the File menu and select Open File.
2 - in the window that comes up scroll down to the bottom of the sidebar and look for Media.
3 - under it will be Photos.
If Photos doesn't appear open your library and make sure it's the System Photo Library;
SZeke. Thank you for your reply. I right clicked on the photos but don't see an export function - new to Mac and things are really confusing at this point. Shouldn't I be able to determine what file I put them in when I download them from the iPhone, too? It didn't give me options. I'll use the Preview, etc., and test that out, as well.
Thank you,
You need to select the photo to upload via your browser when at eBay. When you're asked to select the photo from your computer to upload do the following:
Try exporting the photo to, e.g., your Desktop or Downloads. That has always worked for me. Once exported photos should open with Preview by default. You may want to use Preview > Tools > Resize to adjust the size smaller for eBay.
You are correct. It works in Firefox as well, BTW.
Photos from iPhone to Mac, but can't upload to eBay! Why???
