Re: How to back up photos from computer?

@Sunshine Kate   Yes

 

W/o knowing your system or device which you did not provide,  the following is for Mac computers....

Finder>Apple>File>New Folder

Name the folder (s)

Add photos to folder(s)

 

Connect flash drive to computer

Click on icon to open

Drag folder(s) inside

 

OR

 

Drag folder ontop of the flash drive icon.

 

***Unknow if the above works on Apple iOS devices.***

Re: How to back up photos from computer?

I backup my photos to my Google Drive from my phone or computer.

 

You do need a Google account, 

and have 15GB of free storage.

 

You can find YouTube videos to help you set up an and copy your photos to a Google. 

 

Google Photo app on an Android phone will automatically store the photos or remain you to back them up.

I back up all my files to an external hard drive because they have more space.  I have 2 that hold a terabyte.

 

You just plug it into a USB port on your computer and it acts just like an internal drive.

 

At one time I used click free and did get one back up out of it.  But one day it decided to fail when I plugged it in. 

 

I have no idea how to back up with an app on my phone.
