Image Manager does not find my graphics

Question

MIDI Target Manufacturer(s): Roland

I tried to import graphic files (*.png) like I used to do before. I made the graphics on my computer, transferred them to my iPad Photo app. But when I open Image Manager in MD, it shows me only photos or screenshots taken by the iPad itself. In the Photo app I also still have graphics, which I used in an older layout (successfully), but now Image Manager won't show even those to choose from.

I checked privacy settings, MD is allowed to access "all photos".

MD version: 2.267

iPad: 14.7.1

Any advice appreciated!

Thanks!

Answer 1

Check your iCloud photos and Network settings

In order to see all photos, iCloud Photos needs to be active in both your iPad and computer and both must be on the same network. Do you see the computer photos on your iPad? That may be the issue, not MDP's Image Manager.

Thanks! I don't use iCloud for photos on the iPad.I transferred them from the computer via iTunes and the photo app on the iPad shows them okay. BUT: I checked the settings again, based on your answer and found, that I need to switch on "my photos stream". Now all pics show up in the image manager in MD. So even though this happened kind of accidentally, you gave me a push in the right direction. Thanks again for that!
