It also can sync folders you have in Drive to your computer, so you can access them when you're offline. Sync can be a two-way streetīackup and Sync not only syncs folders on your computer to Google Drive. Next, click the OK button and Backup and Sync will start uploading. I just want my Mac's photos safely backed up to Google Drive and don't feel the need to be able to browse through them on Google Photos. I left this unchecked, because I already have the Google Photos mobile app backing up every photo I take on my iPhone and don't want all of the old photos on my Mac jamming up my Google Photos feed. Use this option if you want all of the photos you have stored on your computer to show up on Google Photos. There's also a checkbox to Upload photos and videos to Google Photos. Google Drive provides 15GB for free but after that, you'll need to pay. High quality will compress photos larger than 16 megapixels and videos with a resolution higher than 1080p but these compressed files will not count against your data cap.
For photos, you have two options: High quality or Original quality. Next, launch the app, sign into your Google account and select which folders you'd like to continuously back up to Google Drive.
You'll end up with the same app either way. Set up Backup and Syncįirst, download the app from the Google Drive page or from the Google Photos page. You can use the app to back up the contents of your entire computer - or just selected folders. Google's new Backup and Sync app replaces both the company's Drive and Photos desktop apps for Windows PCs and Macs.
