Hi folks,
Apologies if this has been asked before but I can't find the info to help me.
I have a Macbook Pro Retina 13" 2015. I've slowly been trying to get used to it as I'm a Windows user normally.
My issue is trying to view a folder of images. The only way appears to be to click on the image and look at it in preview. Then if I want to look at another I am going back to the finder and clicking on the next one.
In Windows I could just select the lot and view as a slideshow or similar.
I did find that I could look at photos through uploading to albums in Photos. So I bought a Transcend 256gb Jetdrive, formatted it, imported all of my photos to it, then thought it was just a case of importing them all into Photos in various albums. I got about 6 large albums in when I had a message telling me I needed more gigabytes in order to complete that next import. I guess that the images are importing into Photos and creating that same sized file which is eating into my Macbook's internal memory.
So, is there anyway I can either link my images on my Transcend Jetdrive to my Photos software on my Mac so that I can view them through Photos? Or failing that, is there a free and reliable image viewer that anyone can recommend that I can view my images through, in albums/slideshows etc.
Apologies for the long-winded first post but wanted to try and explain it all as it's a little frustrating.
Many thanks
Ian
