I did look at PowerPhotos and it seems that creating a separate library of those old pics I want to archive on a separate disk would be a great way to go and worth the purchase price and learning a new app. I am working daily with the library and import new photos, but it does not change the modification date. For me, the problem with the library size seems to be fixed in macOS 10.15.4, but the date modified is still wrong. Which version is it exactly? Did you already update to macOS 10.15.4? In the early versions of Catalina the "date modified" and the total size of the Photos Library did not update reliably. The system version below your post is stating macOS 10.15. Jeff, as to the modification date of the library: I suppose there may be some software that allows you to store older photos on a hard drive in a way that means you can still play them as a slide show or flick through quickly without having to open each one? Any ideas are appreciated. However, I don't want to do this again as it is a bit messy and feels precarious. The last time I was faced with this problem, I made a new photos library and created a 'historical photos library' out of the photos I no longer needed immediate access to. The thing about having photos in the photos library is that it is easy to access them and view them as a slide show and I don't want to have to re-instate photos into my photos library each time I want to view them as a slide show etc. ![]() How to archive older photos to de-clutter photos library and take up less icloud space I understand that about putting older photos on an external hard drive and deleting them from the photos library in order to de-clutter and use less iCloud space, however, I'd like to be able to archive my older photos in a way that makes them easy to view/ access when I want to. ![]()
