So after owning multiple iOS devices, I finally took the plunge and purchased a 21.5" base model iMac this past weekend. So far I like it and am happy with the purchase. But I do have a couple of questions...
1) Do I need to download/save photos from my iPhone in order to have them saved on the iMacs hd, or does Photostream on the iMac automatically put a copy on the hd? With my PC I use to use the PhotoTransfer app with iOS to get photos from the iphone to the pc.
2) I transfered about 12,000 photos from my PC's external hard drive to the iMac, and now iPhoto insists on uploading them all to photostream. How can I stop this? Everytime I open iPhoto it continues working on the uploads and slows down the app massively. I don't need or want my whole library on photostream or icloud. I attempted to turn off the "photo uploading" in iphoto preferences, but it didn't seem to work.
3) Is there a good app that works for writing a Blogger blog? I currently use Blogger's posting interface, but I don't really like it and would prefer to work on the iMac (not online) before posting. I'm hoping the iMac helps me be more efficient, creative and productive with my blog/website (Sail Far Live Free)
