How to transfer ALL iCloud photos to iMac?
I have about 1,000 photos in iCloud and would like to transfer them to my iMac, but I have found no way to "Select ALL" so they can all be downloaded to my iMac at once; the only way I have found to download photos from iCloud is to select them individually, then download, which would be very time-consuming.
I have searched the support community for a method to accomplish this but, so far, have found none, other than uploading my entire photo library from my iMac to iCloud and having iCloud then keep full-size copies on my iMac. But, since I have many more photos on my iMac, and this would require a paid iCloud subscription instead of the free 5GB I currently have, I am loathe to use this method.
Thanks for any suggestions.
iMac, macOS High Sierra (10.13.6), 8 GB
