Does Time Machine backup photos and videos in my "Photos" app on my mac? I'm using Time Machine on an external hard drive to backup all my files on my computer. But does Time Machine also backup my images and videos in the "Photos" app? (and if yes, how would I access those files when I enter the Time Machine?) Or does icloud backup all of those files in the Photos app?
