DedupeHow to Upload Photos from Mac to OneDrive?
Last Updated :OneDrive or SkyDrive for Mac is the easiest way to backup photos and videos from your Mac. When you download and install OneDrive on your Mac, it creates a dedicated folder on your Mac which is known as 'OneDrive' folder. Anything you add in this folder (like photos, videos, files, important documents) is automatically sync between your Mac and OneDrive website. So you can access those files from anywhere on any device. You can easily organize your files and folders in OneDrive, just like any other folder. There are two ways to upload photos from your Mac machine to your OneDrive account i.e. using PicBackMan and the other via OneDrive website.
A. Using PicBackMan for Mac
- Connect your SkyDrive / Onedrive account from ACCOUNTS tab.
- On ‘Photos’ tab click ‘Associate Photo Folder’ button, you see on the page’. Browse and select folder that you wish to upload to SkyDrive / Onedrive.
Note: You can associate as many folders as you want. - Check mark the box corresponding to ‘SkyDrive / Onedrive’ icon and then click ‘upload’ button located at the bottom of the window.
- That’s it, PicBackMan’s SkyDrive / Onedrive Uploader for Mac will now upload all the photos.
B. Via OneDrive Website:
- Go to https://onedrive.live.com & sign in to your account.
- Once you are signed in to your account, you will see a set of Microsoft services at the top. Select "OneDrive".
- You will see 2 options "Create" & "Upload".
- Click "Create" button & select "Folder" option. Specify a folder name (name of your photo album) to upload photos.
- Click on the folder you created.
- Click "Upload" button located in the top menu bar to upload photos to this folder.
- As soon as you click on upload button a "File upload" window opens up. Browse & select photos which you want to upload.
- Your photos will now be uploaded to OneDrive.
You can install PicBackMan's OneDrive uploader for Mac from the website and start backing up photos and videos.

PicBackMan does exactly what it's supposed to. It's quick and efficient. It runs unobtrusively in the background and has done an excellent job of uploading more than 300GB of photos to 2 different services. After having lost a lot of personal memories to a hard drive crash, it's nice to know that my photos are safe in 2 different places.

LOVE this program! Works better than ANY other program out there that I have found to upload thousands of pictures WITH SUB-FOLDERS to SmugMug!
Thank you so much for what you do! :) #happycustomer

I pointed PicBackMan at a directory structure, and next time I looked - all the photos had uploaded! Pretty cool. I use SmugMug and while I really like it, the process of creating directories in is pretty laborious when you need to make 80+ at a time. This was a breeze. Thank you!

PicBackMan was really easy to setup and has been running for 3 days now backing up all my locally saved photos to Flickr. My photos are really valuable to me so it's great to be able to have them easily backed up to a secure location.
Jim Griffin It's AWESOME!! I have tens of thousands of pictures...and they are now successfully uploaded to SmugMug, where they are safely backed up, and I can edit and organize them. If you are hesitating about using PicBackMan, hesitate no longer...try it...and you'll be glad you did!!

I started with the basic plan, went to premium and now on their platinum plan and it's more than worth the price for me. PicBackMan has saved me many tedious hours of effort moving many files between my various cloud and photo site services and my local computers.

I am very satisfied and surprised at the same time with Pic BackMan. The service is very good and useful. I used it to transfer my photos from Dropbox to my Flickr accound. I highly recomment it.

PicBackMan was an answer to many a prayer. How can I get this MASSIVE collection of photos onto a service that cripples uploading? PicBackMan. I uploaded approximately 85,000 photos in less than a month. It would have taken me close to a year to get all of those photos where they needed to go. Nothing short of brilliant.
Dary MerckensI have thousands of family photos and it's always been such a pain to upload them to various cloud services for offline storage. Well not anymore! PicBackMan makes backing everything up a complete breeze. I don't know how I ever lived without it!
Glen MartineauI was poking around the Internet looking for an easy tool to help me consolidate 15 years of my pictures from Google Photos and Flickr etc - this tool was very easy to use and was painless to setup.
