Just cant believe something that should be so simple can be so complcated!Ĭlick to expand.It amazes me how a company like Amazon have, what seems to be, a fairly poor offereing. Would love if anybody out there could confirm this IS working and its just me or my computer having a meltdown! The amazon agent told me this feature may not have been implemented yet.yeah right!!!!!! Its well documented on the web that there is a feature that allows you to use the 'drive' folder structure to create albums containing the appropriate images.but it just does not work. Now point 1 is probably fine, the amazon agent confirmed that any change that I make to the local images folder would be synced with the cloud drive folder. Cant select the folders and the Choose Folder button at the bottom is greyed out. BUT there is no way to select them! Clicking on them just opens the folder.there seems no selection function? I tried on different PC with different web browser but same result. This opens up a window with directories listed and I can scroll down and through the sub-directories. I can click on the little folder icon next to the Create Folder button. This is cleasrly documented BUT does not work. My intention is now to use the folder structure from the drive directory to create Albums to organise things.Is it already set? Strange I cant find and settings for this? How and where do I set this to be a regular/synced backup? I cant find any way to control this. As mentioned I used upload button when logged in to Amazon Drive web page.Now I did this via the 'Upload' lect the root directory and away we go.was uploading all night. Including all nicely labelled sub directories. So I'm reaching out to any Amazon Photos users out there who have sucessfully managed to use their service.Īs I have 1000's of images I want to backup and be able to view, I used Amazon Drive (web browser) to upload a complete directory of all my images. Ive tried chatting with Amazon customer services on their site but that was worse than useless and I ended up on a call with an agent who was no better and clearly did not understand their product other than the most basic of functions! As I'm an Amazon prime subscriber I have free photo storage so obvious choice BUT have run in to issues.one of which is major! Next step was to find a cloud based archive. So did the hardwork, Now images all in nice directories relating to the eneny/subject of the photographs within, Have just gone through the massive job of trying to pull together old family pictures from slides,photographs and digital.
