I have dozens of video clips shot on my iPhone in Photos on my MBAir, but there doesn't seem to be a way to find them all, e.g. there is no collection of the video clips that I can find. I seem to have to laboriously scroll thru thousands of photos to find one or two video clips. There must be a easier way. How can I find/group all video clips for easy access?
Thanks

We need details - what version of the OS and of Photos do you have? What are your iCloud settings on each device?
In the current version (OS X Sierra 10.12.4 and Photos 2.0) in the albums section look at the Videos album for all videos
LN
To find the Videos album in the side bar reveal the sidebar with key combination ⌥⌘S
You can also search with smart album for specific videos - slow motion, time-lapse, or movie.
How are you transferring the videos from your iPhone to the Mac?
My Photo Stream does not transfer the videos. You have to import them by a USB connection or using iCloud Photo Library.
That is over a year out of date but I believe that the video album was the same way back then
and again

What do you see in the Video album?

What Video album? Where on a MBPro?
In the sidebar of the Photos application window. If there are videos in Photos on your Mac, the videos will be shown in the Video album as shown in Larry's screenshot. If there are no videos, this album will be missing.
Ah ha! Finally found it. Don't mean this as a complain -- I really DO appreciate the help. But the screen shot looked at first like a little narrow stripe--I didn't recognize it as a screen shot. When it finally occurred to me to click on it, it opened up so that I could see it. And I found the video. Then, following the process, I found Videos. I guess when you know how it's not so hard to find.
Thanks to all!

iCloud and Photos are checked.

I'm only talking about one decide, the MBAir. iCloud is on.

what keys are that key combination? Neither shift nor control nor option plus command S do anything, except evoke a little 'beep', which is amusing but not helpful, alas. :-(
Hal
The keys are option-command-S ⌥⌘S. or use the main menu command "View > Show Sidebar". Is this command grayed out?
You're welcome 🙂
Yes, greyed out.
Thanks!
