Q: Sharing photos to Flickr.

How do you create an album on Flickr when sharing photos?  I can see where I select an existing album, but I don't see any options for creating a new one.  This was an option in iPhotos.

 

It appears I'm now limited to sharing to one Flickr account, is there a way to set up multiple?  I share different albums to different accounts depending on the content, so I require to be able to continue doing this without having to disassociate my whole Mac from Flickr and reassociate a different account each and every time.  This was an option in iPhotos.

MacBook Air (13-inch Mid 2013), OS X Yosemite (10.10.3)

    Really disappointing what I experienced when updating to Yosemite with photos. The interface to flickr does not work properly anymore. When I want to share e.g. more than 100 photos to flickr it does not offer the share-link to flickr. less than 100 ok, but does not upload finally. Use I 20 photos it does the job, but in the wrong sequence of photos. And most of the time it does not fulfill the job of transmission. Horror for me.

    Ever since Flickr updated their uploader there have been issues with the Flickr upload process and not just on Photos.

    To post this answer did you check with iphoto? I do not think so. The problem occurred with photos...

    Aristophanes, this is not a Flickr caused issue.  This has nothing to diwht Flickr's uplader product.  This is a limitation in the Photos for Mac product.  If you go to iPhotos (what the OP originally used), they can still do what they want.  They are asking how to get that functionality out of the new Photos for Mac product.

    Unfortunately you are over a year behind as this thread is from April 2015 - about ten updates with bug fixes and new features in the past - not sure why you are posting now i s along dorment thread about very out of date software

    I'm posting now because the problem still exists.  Those updates and bug fixes have done nothing to resolve this issue.  Am I not allowed to look around to still existing problems to see if there's new solutions found?
