I’ve effectively over 10,000 pictures in iCloud, and I wish to obtain them as JPG recordsdata as an alternative of HEIC. Once I login to iCloud in an internet browser, it offers me choices to obtain my pictures as HEIC or JPG:
The issue with the iCloud internet interface is that it solely helps you to obtain 1000 pictures at a time. I wish to obtain all my pictures as JPG recordsdata in a single obtain.
So I put in Apple’s iCloud for Home windows app on my Home windows PC. The app has no limitation on what number of pictures you’ll be able to obtain without delay from iCloud (or if it does have a restrict, it’s effectively over 10000).
The iCloud for Home windows app shows all of your iCloud pictures (even when you have not downloaded them) below C:UsersusernamePicturesiCloud PhotosPhotos. The issue is that it exhibits all my iCloud pictures as HEIC recordsdata, so which means I can solely obtain them as HEIC. Underneath the iCloud for Home windows app’s Photograph Settings, there’s a Obtain Excessive-Effectivity format pictures and movies possibility that’s checked and grayed out. Despite the fact that it’s grayed out, it nonetheless lets me uncheck it, however after I shut the settings window and re-open it, that possibility remains to be checked.
Is there any strategy to have the iCloud for Home windows app enable me to obtain my iCloud pictures as JPG as an alternative of HEIC recordsdata?
