[QUOTE="tobindia, post: 1855584, member: 261044"] This seems to be getting worse! I have been away from my MBA for a day or so, during which the EHD has been attached, and I have not performed any of the actions suggested above. But things have changed: [LIST=1] [*]All Photos show up now. They are not blank as I described above. [*]I can now edit seemingly everything, so #2 above seems to have resolved. [*]Photos are still not synced between devices, but I’ll worry about that later. [/LIST] However, I have a new issue: [LIST=1] [*]Most, of the photos are now duplicated and some are even triplicated! The duplicates/triplicates have the same name as the original. Whereas before, I had about 25,000 photos, I now have 57,943. And a process called photolibraryd, which I assume to be the Photos app, uses between 0.2% and 39% of the CPU, even though I’m not doing anything and usually even have Photos quitted. The size of the Photo Library has not changed. [/LIST] What’s happening — and how do I (safely) stop it? [/QUOTE]
