今回は「Googleフォト」から「Amazon Photos」へ画像データを移行させてみよう

From "Google Photos", whose image capacity is restricted from June, to "Amazon Photos" with unlimited capacity for prime members

　Since the last time, I have been practicing how to master the screen saver function of Fire TV Stick.

　First of all, I set an album to be used on a screen saver to automatically upload photos of my smartphone to "Amazon Photos".This time, I would like to add a picture of the "Google Photos" that I have taken so far to Amazon Photos at once.

　Since June, Google Photos have been consuming capacity in addition to previous videos in uploaded videos.

　If you are an Amazon Photos, you can use it with unlimited capacity [*1] if you are subscribing to "Amazon Prime", so it is a good idea to switch there.If you transfer photos taken in the past, you can continue to use it in the same state as when you used Google Photos.

[*1] …… I don't know how long Amazon Photos can upload unlimitedly.Since the continuation of the service has not been guaranteed forever, let's build an intention so that you can move to other means at any time in the future.

Download the image data of Google Photo

まずはPCのウェブブラウザーで「Googleアカウント」にログインする。Google Chromeであれば、リンクからアクセスできる

　Google Photo data can be logged in to the "Google Account" and dropped from "Download data" in [Data and Customization] in the menu.You can access the Google Data Export page directly.

　This time, let's look at the work procedure on the PC web browser.First, log in to the Google account and download the file.Compression is performed automatically.If the capacity is large, the ZIP compression file is divided.

「データとカスタマイズ」タブで［データをダウンロード］を選ぶGoogleフォトのデータのみをダウンロードするため、「選択をすべて解除」を選んでおくさらに下にスクロールし、［次のステップ］を選んでから［エクスポートを作成］をクリック画面を下へスクロールし、「Googleフォト」のみにチェックを付ける。ここで必要なアルバムだけを選択もできるエクスポートの作成が始まる。容量によってかなり時間を要するGmailアカウントへダウンロードリンクがメールで送られてくるダウンロードリンクを選ぶと再度ログインを求められる。容量が多いときはファイルが分割されるファイルをダウンロード後には、すべて解凍しておこう

Save and save in "Pictures" folder in "Amazon Drive" by terminal

ウェブブラウザーでAmazon Photosのウェブサイトを開き、解凍したフォルダーをドラッグ＆ドロップ

　When the download of the image stored in Google Photos is completed, decompress the file first.Next, open the "Amazon Photos" website on the web browser.

　Then, drag and drop the thawed file with a folder, only images and video files are uploaded.The meta information file in the folder is detected and an upload error is displayed, but you don't have to worry.

ドラッグ＆ドロップ時に、ウェブブラウザーがこのような表示になるのが目印写真のアップロードが始まったらひたすら待つアップロード後にエラーが出るが心配ないアップロードエラーの内容を確認。写真と動画以外のデータがエラーとなっている

　Uploaded photos can be stored as an album as it is.The album created by Amazon Photos can be set as a screen saver for the Fire TV Stick.

　By the way, the photo of Amazon Photos is stored in a "Pictures" folder in "Amazon Drive" by terminal.The photos uploaded from the web browser are organized in the "Web" folder.

完了画面で「アルバムに追加する」をクリックすると、アルバムを作成することも可能Amazon Photosの写真は「Amazon Drive」内の「Pictures」フォルダーに端末別に分けられて保存されている

Note that Android cannot work with the "Amazon Photos" app on iOS for free space.

　If you do this procedure with an Android smartphone, you need to download and decompress the compressed file, so you need a close capacity.Also, since the communication capacity is large, it is safe to connect to the Wi-Fi at home and temporarily turn off the mobile line just in case.

　For Android smartphones, select a folder that is thawed in "Folder Management" using the "Automatic Save" function of the "Amazon Photos" application.In the iOS version of the Amazon Photos app, this feature restricted the local folder browsing, and it seems that the work will not work.

　Next time, let's display it on the screen saver of Fire TV Stick.

This lesson (point)

From Google Photos to Amazon Photos, the Amazon Photos photo data that can move the data at once is saved in Amazon Drive.
