PHOTOBACKUP ACROSYNC INSTALL

There is no need to install special software on these computers.

PhotoBackup works with most Mac or Linux computers, or Network Attached Storage devices like those made by QNAP and Synology. Public key authentication for ssh login is also supported. The default is rsync over ssh, but PhotoBackup can also connect to an rsync daemon directly. Only new photos and videos will take up space. With this option on, for every backup PhotoBackup will create an incremental snapshot on the computer that shares the same copies of old photos and videos existing in previous snapshots. If you never delete photos or videos backed up to the computer, you may disable this option. So if some photos and videos are deleted on the computer, PhotoBackup will not attempt to upload them again.

By default PhotoBackup skips photos and videos that have been uploaded before.

If you like to edit photos on your iOS devices, this option should be turned on. By default, PhotoBackup will always upload the original, highest quality version (for instance, RAW files if they are imported).

Backup the current, rendered version if the photos have been edited.

Select any number of photos and videos to backup instead of all photos and videos.

PhotoBackup also provides several very useful options for advanced users: Unlike other popular file transfer protocols like ftp or sftp, the rsync protocol is to only one that verifies every transferred file with a checksum, thus file corruption can never happen. The rsync protocol is fast, efficient, and smart enough to skip photos and videos that exist on the computer. Under the hood, PhotoBackup uses the rsync protocol to upload photos and videos. This ensures that every photo and video will get backed up. PhotoBackup will backup everything in the Camera Roll, which includes those taken by the camera, those imported from a SD card, and those saved by other apps. There is no need to hand pick photos or videos one by one. On subsequent backups, only new photos and videos since last backup will be uploaded. Once it is configured, all you need to do is to tap the green button to start the backup. You just need to select the computer from a list of available computers (alternatively you can enter directly the host name of the IP address of the computer), type in the username and password for logging into the computer, and then select the folder to backup to using a built-in remote folder browser.

PHOTOBACKUP ACROSYNC MAC OS X

With PhotoBackup, you can easily upload and backup all your photos and videos on your iOS devices to your own computers that run Mac OS X or Linux, without the need to plug iPhone/iPad into the computers via USB, and without the need to install additional software on the computers.
