Apple might prefer a Mac alongside your iPhone or iPad, but the company doesn’t assume that people would give up their Windows PCs just to get access to sync services across devices. Some of Apple’s core cloud services are also available for Windows. iCloud Photo Library is one of those services. It’s a relatively easy way to back up and share your iPhone and iPad’s photos and videos with your PC. While you may not get as many features on your PC like Apple’s macOS and iOS software, the company provides a way to organize your iCloud Photo Library on a Windows PC. Here are the steps to set up and use iCloud Photo Library in Windows PC.
Before you start with iCloud Photo Library, you need to have iCloud for Windows installed and set up. The thing is that it’s an easy process and here is the complete guide for you to set up and use iCloud Photo Library in Windows PC:
Apple doesn’t exactly promote iCloud for Windows on its homepage. If you didn’t know it even existed, you may also not know where to find it. All you need to do is visit the link below and download the iCloud for Windows installer.
When you set up and use iCloud Photo Library in Windows PC, you realize iCloud covers a few different bases, and you might not want to sync all of them to your PC. Select the ones you want by checking the relevant boxes and then click “Apply.”
The program you’ve installed support iCloud Photos, iCloud Drive and bookmark syncing from Safari to Internet Explorer. It can also integrate your calendars, contacts and more with Outlook on Windows.
When you enable iCloud Photo Library, your photos and video will by default automatically upload to iCloud, and eventually sync with your other iOS devices and PC. If you’d like to expedite this process, however, you can enable My Photo Stream: This will automatically sync any images you take to your other devices when you (and they) are connected to a Wi-Fi network.
As there’s no Photos app from Apple for your PC, it isn’t easy to find and access your synced images. Instead, we can make a quick access shortcut to iCloud for Windows’s “desktop app” folder.
Once you’ve activated iCloud Photo Library on your PC, you’ll begin receiving images and video from your iPhone or iPad, as well as uploading images from the folder you selected in the step above. But you can also add new images and video to specific albums right from your computer: Here’s how.
It is easy to share images and video with your friends who also have iCloud accounts, with iCloud Photo Sharing. You need only choose the people you want to share photos with, decide whether to allow them to add photos and videos themselves, and create the new album. Participants can leave comments and even upload their own files, all of which will show up right in the folder when you open it up on your Windows PC.
Activity: This album lets you view all recent activity in your shared albums.
Open a folder: The other folders in your iCloud Photos library include your shared albums and any regular albums you’ve created.
When someone invites you to a shared photo album, you’ll have to subscribe before you can view photos and video. Here are the simple steps to do so:
iCloud is Apple’s cloud-based storage facility that allows you to store your files remotely and access them from a variety of devices via Wi-Fi. With iCloud Photos, every photo and video you take is automatically uploaded to your iCloud Photo Library and then synced to all of your other iCloud-enabled devices. But this feature is also available for your Windows PC. Once you set up and use iCloud Photo Library to sync your images, you’ll be able to access your entire photo collection at any time, and from any iOS device or computer. So, you don’t have to think about using a separate photo transfer app to copy your photos between devices. Because iCloud Photos does it automatically.
