iCloud Photo Library + iTunes Sync

[VacTacks11]

When I turn on iCloud Photo Library (Beta), I'm given a message that says "Syncing photos via iTunes is not supported when iCloud Photo Library is turned on".

It then says it's going to remove my pictures.

I use iPhoto to sync my pictures onto my iPhone, so if turning IPL is going to disable that, any ideas on how I can get my pictures/videos onto my phone without using iPhoto?

Thanks

I would also like to know the answer to this. How do you upload photos to iCloud photo library from your mac?

You won't be able to until they release the proper Photos app for the Mac.
Only way at the minute, is to import your photos/videos to iPhone/iPad, using a file transfer app, and then let them upload from there.

This is precisely why I will not switch to iCloud Photo Library.

I used this with success.

Once everything is in your camera roll, it'll upload to iCloud Photo Library.

Oh and when the app seems to be frozen...its actually working. I had 8000 photos and videos so it took a good 45 minutes of leaving my iPhone alone while it loaded everything.

You can also airdrop photos if you're on a Mac
