Hi - I have a large amount of photos stored in iCloud, roughly 38,000. I am trying to get these onto an external hard drive and it's saying I can only export 1,000 photos at a time? Any idea on the best approach here? That was through my computer, I am open to trying to transfer them directly from my iPhone but i figured that may be even more complicated. Thank you in advance.
Photos can’t be transferred directly from iCloud to an external hard drive for that you need to set up iCloud photo library see the article https://support.apple.com/en-in/HT204264
And its preferences https://support.apple.com/en-in/guide/photos/pht5156cc968/4.0/mac/10.14 , open finder > Go > home > your user name > pictures either drag and drop Photos Library.photoslibrary to an external hard drive , the second method is right click on Photos Library.photoslibrary and click on show package contents in the upcoming column , you can also drag and drop complete masters folder to an external hard drive that is connected .
