Sharing

Sam Yadon

Is there a way to copy an Album and put it on a thumb drive? I know how to share through email etc. but I specifically want to put it on a thumb drive

I am sorry, that is not a feature that is available with the Memories Albums. It is a great suggestion, though. I will add it to our list of requested features for the Memory tools.

In the meantime, the only way to share Memories that are in an Album is to use the "Share" option, that you already mentioned. Alternatively, and much more tedious, would be to download individual Memories to your thumb drive.

Thanks for the feedback.

The best thing to do - is to create a corresponding album on your computer / device - when you first UPLOAD them - so you have a back up copy of anything uploaded (from the "get go") .

as stated - there is no way to download an entire album - in one click.
but you can do it one item at a time
each item can take just a few seconds to download (with a highspeed connection)
so it can be done . . . one by one - just very tedious.

But in either way you mentioned above you still do not have the information many have tediously added to their photos. That is, the Title, Place, Date and Description. Plus the tagging of individuals. The latter would be difficult but the the other information downloaded as either meta-data (I think that is what it is called) or a text file would be so nice.

it surely can be if you make it part of the file name.

but yes some sort of automated procedure that put that all together for you sure would be nice.
