iPhone, Photos on Mac Mini, Cloud Storage - Can't See Photos Just Taken on Mac Mini
Pics taken on my iPhone are not showing up on my Mac Mini. I pay a monthly fee for iCloud storage - storage amount far exceeds capacity of my Mac Mini. My Mac Mini tells me its out of storage. Which is fine - I don't want to *store* the photos I took on my iPhone on my Mac. They should be (are) already stored in iCloud. But I want to preview and print those photos while working at my Mac Mini. If the photos are in the cloud, then why can't I view & print a photo from the cloud in the Photos app? Would that be much different from viewing-then-printing a photo from an internet image search result? Except instead of viewing and printing an image stored on another server, I'm viewing and printing photos from the iCloud account that I'm paying for? Is it possible that ... the Photos App on my Mac Mini allows me to only see & work with photos that are local - and that there's no way to view photos stored in iCloud from my Mac? (please say it isn't so...) Thank you.
iPhone 5, iOS 10
