Apple software engineers they continue to work with the development of the final version of OS X 10.10 Yosemite. In its presentation, in the inaugural keynote of WWDC 2014, it is made public that from this new operating system, users will be able to use the cloud to save their photographs.
For this, those from Cupertino are outlining a new application with which we can connect our Mac to the iCloud cloud as far as photography is concerned. We are talking about the Photos application.
In that presentation, Apple unveiled the new and future Potos application, both for iOS and OS X Yosemite as an application that was going to allow user to empty their device by sending photos to iCloud cloud. They weren't talking about the existing photo streaming that automatically saves the last thousand photos for a month. Now, with the launch of the also new iCloud Drive, Apple is setting new storage prices and allows you to use the cloud to host much more data.
However, since yesterday it has been known that Apple will stop updating the Aperture app, a photography application for advanced users that had nine years of life behind it. The system is renewed and with it the applications that come standard. In this case, the Yosemite Photos application will be the evolution of iPhoto adding all the news and support for iCloud and on the other hand it will be the one that cannibalizes the Aperture application, that will stop updating.
The launch of the new Photos application and the iCloud Photo Library, which allows us to store images safely and which we can access from any corner, has led to the end of Aperture's development. When this new application reaches all users, they will be able to migrate their galleries from Aperture.
With this news, all the millions of users throughout the planet hope that tools and utilities are not lost of that app in the new Photos app. It is clear that whenever such a sharp modification is made, in the first versions it is made "nice and clean" with some characteristics that, after users claim them, may or may not return in later versions.
Now we only have wait for the launch of OS X Yosemite to be able to squeeze this new application that promises to delight users.
My biggest doubt is that if the new app, it will have the same options as iphoto, especially the one to create and buy, cards, photographic books, calendars among others ...
How can I migrate to Photos once Yosemite is installed? at first I did not and I would like to work with the new application. Thank you.
