Q: Move photos from Mac to iPhone 6 Plus

You can use an App like Photo Transfer to do this. See: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/photo-transfer-app-easily/id365152940?mt=8

iCloud Photo Library is still beta and the Photos app for a Mac running Yosemite has not yet been released. You can use Airdrop as discussed in the following: iCloud Photo Library beta FAQ - Apple Support

If you want to transfer the photos via iTunes you would need to not use iCloud Photo Library beta.

Another option might be a 3rd party app such as http://www.photosync-app.com

I would love to use Airdrop but I have a mid 2012 iMac so apparently I can't do it from this machine very annoying.

The following from Mac Basics: AirDrop lets you send files from your Mac to nearby Macs and iOS devices - Apple Support seems to indicate you can (if you have Yosemite installed):

In order to transfer files between a Mac and and an iPhone, iPad or iPod touch

• your iOS device needs to include a lightning connector
• your iOS device needs iOS 7 or later installed
• your Mac needs to be a 2012 or later model with OS X Yosemite installed
• Your Mac and iOS device both need bluetooth and Wi-Fi turned on. You do not have to be connected to a specific Wi-Fi network.

I use: PhotoSync - wireless photo and video transfer, backup and share app by touchbyte GmbH
iOS app store
