And as a result, my initial import took much longer as it copied information to the second vault and to my other devices along with my primary computer and vault when it was adding images to my Mylio Library catalog. That was part of my problem, I couldn’t help myself and I added a second vault right away along with some other devices. Mine for example was ~ 182000 images that take around 3 TB of space on my external drive and it took a weekend on my 2019 iMac to finish the initial import properly.īy not adding other devices to your Mylio setup until this is finished, it will speed up the process as Mylio doesn’t have to deal with the other devices during this initial import. The larger your library the longer it will take. As mentioned above, it is not just a matter of putting a listing for an image in your Mylio catalog, but many other things are done as your images are imported. HOLD OFF on doing this.ĭepending upon how large your existing library of files is, the initial import into Mylio will take some time. You might be tempted to add your other devices right away such as your phone or another computer. Be that your internal drive or external drive (PS recommend external) This is the scenario that I fall into and can give you some advise base upon my experienceĪfter you set up Mylio you should have 2 devices, 1 being your computer and the other being your Vault where your Mylio Library is located. You should be ok having multiple vaults and multiple devices to start If you choose an existing folder as your Mylio Library Folder
There is a lot that Mylio is doing in the background, it is not just making a listing in your catalog, but Mylio also does some other work on your files so it is ready for the Face Recognition, De Duplicating, creating previews, creating thumbnails and putting your images on the Map to name a few that I know of
Such as one memory card at a time, or one folder of images at a time.
This is not my case so what I say here is just from my trial and error when I was testing it out.īasically, do one import at a time. Importing If you created a new folder for your Mylio Library
But as always, refer to the Mylio Manual or contact their tech support (Which has been great by the way) if you have any issues. Now that I’ve had Mylio for a week and have worked on importing my images into Mylio I thought I would give some tips based on my experiences.
