I have more than 8,000 photos and 600 videos on my IPad. It is getting slow and I don´t have an empty USB at the moment. So, since last night, I keep on transferring the photos from my gadget to our computer. Gladfully, youtube DIY is there for me to check every time I need help. Now, I have only 7,000 photos to transfer besides the videos. A long way to go.
I have just received a Christmas card from Valerie. Thank you very much, Val. It is beautiful. I hope my card will reach you this Christmas.
Thanks for reading. I hope all of you are in good health. God bless you all.

I don't keep photos on a device. I have them on floppy disks and flash drives...but most photos have been printed out and are fairly current. Same to you!

I keep on my phone and laptop only newly taken videos and photos, all older ones go to the floppy disks and flash drives

That is what I am intending to do. Just to keep my newest photos and videos on my gadgets. Thanks @lillywriter

Too many and it is worrying me every day I do not have time to go through them.

I can relate to that worrying. I am scared that my photos will be gone when I have not done the backups.Thanks @TiarasOceanView

I only have a few photos on my iPad, most of them are on my laptop. I don't have as many as you, maybe about 300. I have deleted some of my photos. I only keep the best ones.

Wow! I have pictures, but not videos. I erase the videos because it’s taking up memory space.

Oh! Too many. Though I keep transferring them to cloud and deleting the unwanted ones. But still they keep piling up.

Blessings to you too. Presently all of my older photos are on backup and I have that attached to my PC for access and my more recent photos are adding up on my PC and I have to move them into the back up as well. I need to find the time for a major photo clean up.

It doesn't take long for the photos to mount up. We all take so many nowadays.

That's too big. What about if your computer will bog down? Why not transfer them in a DVD it would be easy to retrieve them if you want to?
