Photo slides do deteriorate over time. Get them scanned. Try scanmyphotos.com . Specialized scanner for slides, all-in-one scanner, that has a special tray.
Use your big screen TV to show photos. 4k TVs are super hi-res. Most TVs have a USB port so you can save images to USB thumbdrive and show on your TV.
Different size files depending on your ultimate use such as print, web, large prints.
Apple: use image capture with your iphone attached via USB to apple computer.
There is a program for apple iphone to PC.
iPhoto (Photos on new OS): don’t use because it imports by event and attaches date of download. It’s the default system for Apple products.
My Photo Stream: pushes photos from iCloud to every Apple devices attached to that iCloud.
Heather is not impressed with iCloud.
