Okay here's the deal...been playing around with the Photo app and iCloud P Library (beta) for the past few days in an effort to have my 16K photos uploaded and available to all my devices...

It's just not working out for me and I would appreciate some advice/clarity on the best way to achieve this.

I have all my photos saved to an external HD....

Should I transfer all my pics into the Photo app and switch on iCloud Photo Library (beta) on all devices and wait for the week long upload?

Should I transfer all my pics to my iPhone (can only do this through iPhoto whilst iCloud (beta) is switch off then once on flick it on?

Not quite sure...

I want to ensure that I have all my pics uploaded and minimise duplicates

Thanks:)
