Automatically transfer photos between Aperture and My Photo Stream
When you turn on My Photo Stream for an Aperture library, Aperture is set to automatically
upload photos to and download photos from My Photo Stream. However, you can turn these
settings on and off. When Aperture is set to automatically download photos from My Photo
Stream, new photos are imported into a project named “[Month] [Year] Photo Stream.” When
Aperture is set to automatically upload photos to My Photo Stream, photos are uploaded as they
are imported into Aperture.
Note: To transfer photos between Aperture and My Photo Stream, you must have an
Internet connection.
