Alright Macrumors. I have some questions for anyone whom might have some advise on this.
I currently have a Mac Pro setup as a home server. I use it mainly for Plex, but it also hosts Time Machine backups / OS X install images / update caching / etc.
My next task to tackle is a better way to manage photos. Here is what I have done:
I have a shared Photos library. The Server hosts the photos library. Both my mac's point to that shared drive to access. I can manage photos on all 3 machines without issues. Create albums / etc.
My issue is photos on our iPhones. Both my wife and I take many photos and don't want to plug the devices in to download photos. Our iPhones will sync wirelessly with iTunes for the phone backup, but not photo backup.
Does anyone know of a good solution to easily backup photos. I'm open to suggestions, as I haven't had much luck.
I'm looking for:
Possibly an APP for the iPhone / Mac that will allow wireless automated backups. I don't mind opening the app and clicking sync if needed.
I've tried a couple but the speed is horrendous
It needs to integrate with Photos so when it syncs photos they get added to Photos.
Thank you
