I want to stop backing up my iPhone's Camera Roll in iCloud. But I want to keep all the photos. I want to get the photos onto my Mac and then backup my Mac onto my Time Capsule.
After a photo appears in My Photo Stream on iPhoto on my Mac (Macbook AIR), do I have to move it to another album to keep it? I read that Photo Stream only keeps 1000 photos so I'm worried that earlier images will be deleted from My Photo Stream. Thanks!
Nevermind, I found out there's a setting to automatically import My Photo Stream photos in iPhoto's preferences. That sounds like what I'm looking for 🙂
You need to read the PhotoStream documentation and learn how iPhoto works
PhotoStream is NOT a backup nor is it a place to store photos - it is a way to view recent photos on multiple devices
iPhoto can import photos from Photo stream - either autopmatically (set in the iPhoto preferences) or manually - you control that
When you import photos from PS they go into "events" - not into albums - events show the photos in your librrary, albums are used to organize photos
How Time Machine does its backups is determined by your setting in the TM preferences

Do I have to move images out of My Photo Stream to keep them?
