7:41 is the timestamp you guys are looking for to back up ALL your photos.
Hahahha… you are a life saver!!
Well finally I got it. I used your method #2. Now I am a happy camper ....all my photos are in a neat place and safe. Thank you again, Stay safe and blessed always!!
My Mother has more than 10k photos 😭 Reason I'm here is to transfer all those to my computer

This is my third video on the topic of downloading photos from google. This is the BEST video. Thank you so much. This is a great clear crisp easy to understand video. I am a none technical senior and I understood each download method. I did the bulk download and I will delete the json files. Again, excellent information and instructions. Thank you.
Very helpful tutorial. I had no idea where to start to download the files until I found your video. Very much appreciated.
Very good video. really helps!!
Thank you for the tips, Question. Can you download and remove at the same time so that it frees up storage space in your google drive?
Absolutely awesome, thank you. I put them into years, and it's made all the difference. Also easier to tranfer to my computer. Better than Google take out in which did not work for me. You made it so much easier than the other videos. Thanks again.
Awesome! I'm glad I could make things easy for you. Thanks for watching @ddiaz883!
u saved my life. thank you I have 60,000+ photos omfg
In the takeout method, Will google keep a copy of the pictures taken out in the G Photos or remove them as we download?
Wonderful Wonderful Wonderful. Is all i can say about this tutorial. I hv been getting reminders that i hv reached my max 15Gb. Now I am able to resolve this problem. Thank you so much
oh gosh i want to thank you so much for sharing this video. I have been so much trouble trying to find a way to make more storage space on my phone. I hate google , cause it made so hard just to dwnload pics. I'm 70 yrs. for me it was so difficult but now with your video and going very slow I am able to understand and to finally get these pictures out of my phone . So again THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH!!! But I do have one question...If when I make these "albums" and I go back on my phone and erase or delete them, will they be deleted from these albums???? I really don't want to lose any of them. Please let me know.
Tinker here obviously didn't run into the problems of using the "smaller" file sizes in takeout: takeout doesn't always reference the download filename as something you choose from the download list. Download 1 may create a file that contains a -001 reference. Download 16 may create a -015 file. If any of them fail, you don't know which download to restart. I had one file come down as an mp4 when I specified .zip.
And God save you if you don't have a strong broadband connection. Because they will fail a lot.
Excellent tutorial video. 2 questions - Are these methods to move or copy photos to computer?? In other words, will google photos still have photos once you copy them to your computer? 2nd question - Can I have actual photos on download list instead of just numbers ending with .JPEG or whatever other format was used?? It'll be easier to spot photos as you look at lists. Thank you!!!
I have photos from 2011. How do you OPEN the files after you download them???
Hi Jeff/ Geoff I'm a new subscriber to your channel . I need some help . I am using laptop that I bought in December 2019 its a Windows , Windows 10 I think . I have a Google account and I have used all of my 15gb of storage . Quick question. Is there a way that I can select every single picture and video that I have taken and that is stored on Google photos and send it over to my Seagate 8tb external harddrive that I have so that I can free up the 15gb of data on the Google photos . Could you possibly explain exactly step by step how to do it once I've logged into Google photos. Thank you , stay safe . I'll be awaiting your reply . Contacting you from Dublin Ireland .
Hi Sean, I was able to do this process with 8 GB of pictures, I recommend you use the method I show at 3:18 in the video.
(Depending on your internet speed 15 GB of photos and videos is going to take a while to download.)
1. Use Google Chrome as your internet browser, login to your Google photos, Create an album of all your photos on Google. You can select the most recent photo in your photos and scroll to the bottom of your photos, hold the shift key and click on your oldest photo to select them all
2.Once you've created the album, back out of it and click "Albums" on the left side of your screen on Google photos to show your album thumbnails
Click on the album thumbnail so you are in the album
3. Once in the album, in the upper right corner of your screen click on the three dots, choose "download all"
4. This will download the photos to your computer (you'll see a zip file appear at the bottom of your browser)
5. Click the small up arrow next to the zip file name, Locate the zip file on your computer, right click on the zip file and choose "copy", go to you external drive, right click and choose "paste" copy it onto your external drive
6. Right click on it to extract the zip file so you can see all your photos and videos
7. All your photos and videos should be transferred (double check that your photos and videos made it before deleting anything on your Google photos account)
Good luck! Thanks for watching and subscribing!
@@TinkerForward hey thank you for taking your time and replying, it shows you actually care about giving out information and helping others. This is one of the qualities I look for in a UA-camer before I subscribe and I bet I’m not the only one. Anyways I have a simple question that for some of us are super confused about?
So why do you have to download photos into computer first before saving into an external hard drive?
Also, is this why when I transferred my pics by clicking on the “UPLOAD” option and then save to my external drive my photos were transferred. But, they are formatted in a way that I have to open them using a web browser instead of just opening it as a regular photo file. Is this why you download to computer first cuz if it is I’m screwed cuz I don’t have no more memory space on my computer :(
@Gil-Junior RiseAboveBetrayal The reason I download to my computer first is because in using web broswers such as Google Chrome, your downloads are set by default to download to your computer. If you want to download directly to your external drive you'll need to change this in the Google Chrome settings.
To make this change:
1) Open a browser window in Google Chrome.
2) In the upper right corner, click on the 3 vertical dots and choose settings.
3)At the top of the settings windows search for "downloads"
4) Lower on the list it will show you "Location" and the path Google Chrome is using to the folder that contains your downloads. You can edit that location and choose whatever folder you'd like. If you want to download directly to your external drive, you'll need to change that path by clicking the "change" button and choosing the folder you'd like to download to on your external drive. Good luck!
You explain everything well I'm going to try to download my Google photos I have two accounts of Google so I'm going to try download one account of photos and take that account out from my phone why you think is a good idea my name is Dee
THANK YOU!!! I have been dealing with this for years.. I appreciate the straight forward tutorial step by step. I do have a question regarding the second method of downloading the albums, When moving to external drive, will the album continue to be in chronological order and have meta data of where it might have been taken? Or will that be lost when moving over the photos
Hey Nick, thanks for watching! Unfortunately I believe the meta data will be lost when downloading using any of the methods.
@@TinkerForward Which method keeps the metadata?
So helpful! This helps confirm that I have to put in albums I just tried to download it all and for some reason it doesnt come out organized. And the takeout method is weird with all those extra files. Its confusing. In going to just download the albums. Thanks!
Question please
I have memories of photos and videos on an old device, so I backed them up using Google Photos, and I made a factory reset for the old device and left it, and I registered my account on the new device and Google Photos, but after I registered my account on the new device, these photos can I see them in the internal storage of my device, or are they in the account In-app only
Do you mean that it is only stored in the company's servers??
My exported file from google takeout is 34gb. Which is odd cause I thought I only had 15gb. Idk. The problem I’m having is my computer storage doesn’t have 34gb of space to download. How do I download directly to a hard drive? Is that even possible? I’m not tech savvy. Thanks!
Thank You for this!
Truly helped me out and I don't mind the 15minutes..the content is well worth the watch!
Omg thnx dude I can finnaly download my photos😉🙃
so i need to donwload the vid or pic then delete it from google photos,is there is a way to move the files without the need of download then deleting????
Once it’s all downloaded do I need to delete the pictures from Google photos? Beaches I can’t revive emails or anything anymore from my Google account.
Thank you so much.. very clear concise tutorial
my photos downloaded to heic files. how can i change this option?
yes i need to kno
What if you download a lot of photos into a zip file, but delete from Google photos when I've downloaded them, if I open the zip file, will I still be able to access those pictures? I just don't want to delete my pics in Google, to then realize my zip file has no pics because it was connected to Google photos.
I got the "Google Takeout" part. How do you convert the downloads into actual PHOTOS again??
The files get download with the current date and the modified date takes over.. Disappearing the original dates of the photos... Is there some way with which we can download google photos without changing the original date?
When I visit my Google Account Dashboard in Chrome on my phone I don't see anything for Google Photos. Is the option to see how many photos are stored in Google Photos only available on desktop?
This video was very very helpful as I want to get rid of my Google Photos app because it’s eating up my space my storage space so thank you very much
Tinker forward. I am curious if you had any issues state not authorized? I am having this issue. My account, my photos, my log in credentials. Clearly I gave permission when I created the export. I have 29, 2 gb folders. Any insight?
Hi, unfortunately I haven't encountered this. You might want to do a Google search for this problem and see if any message boards come up with any answers for you. Sorry I couldn't be more help, Best of luck!
Thank, thank, thank you very much!! Now my frustration is gone ❤
You're welcome 😊
do the photos and videos add to iCloud in order to dates?
1000 + photos😮. Thank you so much...
Thabk you. How do you completely remove your photos from Google, not just download copies?
well done tutorial. I like the third option as I have like 30gb of photos.
Next I want to download all my data on Google Drive. which is a lot of documents.
Once I get so this off I want to delete it all is Google cloud as they are blue charging me a monthly fee .
thanks again.
Hi, i tried album method and I succeeded. The only problem is I don’t have app to open HEIC type files, what would u suggest me to do?
There's a couple of ways you can open those files.
Here's an article that explains the steps to do this: www.howtogeek.com/345504/how-to-open-heic-files-on-windows-or-convert-them-to-jpeg/
how do i include shared albums without locking the other person out when using google takeout? is it possible?
Thank you, this tutorial is great! It helped me to do what I needed after struggling for a couple of hours of watching other videos. I like your clear approach and delivery.
You're welcome! I'm glad I was able to help you!
Which method removes them from your phone and from google? I am finding that they are still in the phone and Google and this makes a person think they haven't downloaded them.
THANK YOU! I'm going to try all 3 ways and keep my fungers crossed that I don't mess it up! I have been innundated with emails, texts, and Messenger messages and am constantly having to delete cache from my very SLOW phone. Are all these pictures ones from pininterest, youtube, messenger, facebook, photos, and emails? What happens if this USB doesn't have enough space? After I have captured all of my photos, is it safe to throw the ones on my phone away for storage purposes? If so, and I wish to retrieve a photo, do I need to plug my USB back into my phone? So many questions and no one to ask....I am so afraid of losing my pictures. It would be devastating. Sorry to ask all of this but info. out here is sketchy, at best! Thank you for helping me but if I am just not catching on like younger people, I'll figure something out! Ruth Mills
Is there any system that doesn't require 20 hours or more of time?
Thank you! This was so well explained ^^ I will try to check it out myself soon~
Is there a setting to download to an external device, and not the download folder of the C: drive?
Yes. Go to settings in whatever your browser your using and look for downloads and it should ask you where you want all your downloads to go. Or you can check the box where it says ask you where you want each download to go to. In Chrome it's setting/advance/download destination path
If I delete the json file, will the photo information like taking time, iso info being deleted?
Mine says 10,000+ photos! How's that for accuracy?! Looks like google has updated the dashboard features, too, because now there are buttons to download your photos, transfer data and a settings feature too. Thanks for getting me there!
Same. Mine says 60,000+. Like that not exact! And if you click download it takes you to Google takeout.
what do we do if we have no storage in google drive? it doesnt want to create the zip file
In case you've already run out of prepaid space neither of these methods helps you, correct? Coz if I've got it right they are all based on a copying the files (making a zip) to then allow you to download 'em all at once. And that needs free space... that you don't have...
This video was so helpful!!! I had been looking for help to move my photos and could not find a clear example until watching this video.
That's awesome! I'm glad you found the video helpful! Thanks so much for watching! Be sure to check out some of my other helpful software tutorial videos on my channel!
Ive exported them off but Google photos wont let me delete them. I select the photo, press delete and nothing happens
I am watching and at 4:40 minutes you select 1 photo and then another photo and it selected all the photos in between...how did you do that? I pressed shift...it didn't do that on my Mac. How can I select many photos without doing it one by one?
Was it me or did anyone else experience a blurry video, but the ads inbetween were crystal clear
Any suggestions on a workflow to download a dozen years of Google Photos (over 50GB) and retiring the files in a usable format? I want to retain all of the metadata too (original dates etc).
I have the same issue. Google Takeout will give you large zip files but this method is error prone. Did you figure out a method that worked for you?
Nope, I'm still struggling with finding an alternative solution.
What I don’t like is that when I downloaded a video to my phone and then deleted it off Google photos it deleted it off my phone too. Smh
i have 3+ not in service android phones with lots of pictures but i cannot transfer or copy these pictures to my usb flash drive it says their on google photo and when i tried to copy it says zero pictures available but theirs over 1000 pictures on my old phone...what to do? pls help
It doesn't keep the date info attached to the photo. The downloaded photo says the date downloaded. I have over 2T of media. Not looking forward to typing the date on each one and doing it again when I put them back into the app.
Can I delete after I download my photos to my hard drive

Well it only downloaded some even then, it has a limit of 500 photos, and Google Chrome/photos seems to be very poor at downloading a second time without restarted chrome or even having to restart the computer, why is tech so crap at doing it's job
That was easy thanks !!!

Amazing video bro, keep it up 🎉. It's really helpful 👍🌟

How do I transfer my Google photos to a Microsoft Teams file so that I can share them with my co-workers?
I’m wondering why Google won’t allow an option to just to drag and drop ALL My photos onto a USB Flash Drive and or an External Hard Drive??????
Ty so much!!!
This is very beneficial, 😊 Thanks
You're welcome! Thanks for watching!
Great video. Thank you. I have more than 18,000
Thanks! That's a good amount!
It appears as though the Google Photos section in the dashboard doesn't list the exact number of photos anymore. Mine only says "10,000+ photos."
Mine too, just says 2,000+ photos, so they must have changed the dashboard. Any other way to get the exact #?
How can we get our pictures downloaded with the actual dates and location information? it's so annoying. I downloaded the photos, but they didn't come with that information.
Google photos isn't appearing in takout anymore
