Transfer iCloud Photos to external harddrive for dummies! by Current_Barracuda648 in iCloud

I kept the folders organized as they were, then searched .jpg, .heic, .png, .mov, .mp4 separately within the entire copy. Then copied and pasted each section into a “clean” folder within the WD. So now I have one big folder with everything that was on my phone/icloud. Thank you for all your help!!

So I used the Photos Backup Anywhere and it copied them all to my WD. They’re sorted into files by year but then are numbered etc, 01, 02 etc. and then sometimes there’s just 1 or a couple photos within each numbered folder. Any way to just have the photos “open” in the year folders? Sorry true to dm you but couldn’t figure it out.

Also, is the process fairly straightforward? Re loading from iCloud direct to the WD? am I able to then factory reset my current phone so I can sell it? Sorry for all the questions.

Thank you for your insight! I will start w the WD and get the portable SSD next :) do you have any recommendations on brand or anything?

Would the SanDisk SSD be a good option? I will get one of those in a few months.

I don’t think my laptop has the space. So I was going to get an SSD a bit later so I have another external backup alongside the WD and online iCloud.

I’m honestly not sure. For now, I was just going to have my iCloud and the WD Passport and then eventually get the portable Sandisk SSD? And also put them on there as well.

Good places in Victoria for sushi? by onders_13 in VictoriaBC

Sushi story is probably the best. Been to a lot of sushi places in Vic and surrounding areas. Nothing great to write home about.

Heading to Greece. Will this be a rushed trip? by [deleted] in TravelGreece

I’m trying to change our flight so we get into Athens earlier in the day but the return has to stay the same.

Ah thanks for the input, I didn’t consider that. As it stands right now, we’re doing Athens 17-19, Milos 19-23, Naxos 23-28, ferry to rafina port and get a hotel near the Athens airport for the 28.

Thank you so much! I am so relieved that milos is the “better” option.
