If you connect another device with the same iCloud account and enable Photos, then pictures and videos from that device will also be saved on the same iCloud account. Now when you enable iCloud Photos on a device, then all photos on that device will be saved in iCloud. What Happens When You Enable iCloud PhotosĬoming to our point of interest, when you sign into iCloud on any device, you are given the privilege to choose the services that you want to sync to iCloud.

You can access the data from these services on your other Apple devices and through the iCloud website on any platform. When enabled, the data is synced to the cloud.

iCloud can store photos, notes, contacts, reminders, messages, etc. ICloud is Apple’s cloud storage service for all its devices such as iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple TV. Likely you're better off buying a cheap terabyte drive that you can use for other things when you're done deleting Apps from the main drive.Let’s get started with the basics first. This can take a while but last I checked, it does work even when the drive in question is the active System drive. Instead of buying another HD, you could also use disk utility to sub-partition your internal drive. I wouldn't be surprised however if there were some Apps that the System really does need to function properly. Many Apps that Apple protects from deletion are in fact deletable by this method, and the System will run just fine. When done, reboot off the original drive, and the offending App will gone. You must remember to navigate to the Applications folder on the non-boot drive manually though.Ĭlicking "Applications" in a finder window sidebar will always take you to the App folder of the active system, and that's not the one you want. You should now be able to trash Apps from the App folder of your original drive with ease. Go to System Prefs and select your new drive as the boot disk. Install Yosemite, or whatever you're using, on it. A couple hundred gB should cost $20 or $30 by now. Click to expand.Easiest method is to buy a cheap USB hard drive.
