[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1823160, member: 396914"] Just thought I would report back. iMazing didn't have an easy way to get a count, so I downloaded ALL of the images from iCloud as a backup (took 9 downloads because you are only allowed 1000 images in a single download), then backed up my MBP, iPad and iPhone and finally opened Photos Preferences on the MBP and enable iCloud. Photos reported that it was uploading about 1450 images, which sounded right, so I let it run. At the end, nothing was deleted from iCloud, the images on the iPhone that were missing from the MBP showed up on the MBP and the images missing in the iPhone/iPad showed up from the iCloud. So now all four locations are in sync. Would have been slightly more stress-free if Apple's documentation said that they would merge, but hey, it worked! [/QUOTE]
