Can't cancel photo stream upload activity

I recently moved to Aperture and imported all my photos (27,000 of them).  I then realised that with the default settings all these images were being uploaded to photo stream and then continually deleted from photo stream when it hit the 1000 max.  Rather pointless and a large use of bandwidth.  I have now turned off the "Automatic upload" preference:
but I still have a problem because the activity is still trying to complete.
I can see the Photo Stream Activity in the Activity window and can Pause it no problem.
But I can't cancel it!  Clicking the Cancel Task button does nothing.
And if I restart Aperture the activity starts again automatically.
How can I cancel this activity?

Try my app, it closes photostream until you re-open iPhoto

  • Can I disable photo stream from select devices that are connected to my iTunes account?

    Hello,  I was wondering is there any way to do this because I have three iPads connected onto my account, one is in another country and one my parents own, but for my personal one, I would like to disable this feature so my pictures don't get uploaded. My parents like to see the photos being taken by family in another country and I would like those two devices connected only. 

    You can turn off photo stream on one device without effecting the others.  If you want to keep the photo stream photos on the device you are going to turn it off on, you will need to same them to your camera roll before doing so.  To do this open the my photo stream album, tapping Select, tapping the photos, tap the share icon (box with upward facing arrow), then tapping Save to Camera Roll.  Then go to Settings>iCloud>Photos and turn off My Photo Stream.  This will delete the photo stream photos from this device, but not the others (and you already saved copies of these photos to your camera roll so they will still be on your device).
    The other two iPads that are signed into your iCloud account with photo stream enabled will still be sharing the same photo stream but you will no longer see it, and your photos will no longer be added to the stream.  They can still share photos with you by adding them to a shared stream and inviting you as a subscriber (as explained here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mmc0cd7e99). 

  • TS3989 Photo stream upload issues

    I have had battery issues with my iphone 4s and as a result took it to genious bar. My iphone was wiped and resotred as a new device.
    my phone was restored from icloud where i had approx 200 photos in photo stream. however only 9 photos from my photo stream uploaded back onto my iphone.
    can anyone assist on how to retrieve these photograph.
    thanks

    You will have to Pardon my ignorance. I am a relative beginner to this.
    The staff member at the genius bar checked my phone and he said the photograph that where on my photo stream prior to doing the restore would automatically upload on to my iPhone when I restore my settings from iCloud. However only 9 photos done this and there other 100 odd photos didn't.
    I am confused!

  • HT201317 can not activate photo stream on my Mac

    I have iPhoto 11 v 9.1.5 and OsX Lion 10.8.3 but can not activate Photo Stream on my Mac because it is not activated. The place to check activation is faded.
    Help?

    You need iPhoto 9.2.2 or later for Photo Stream and 9.4 or later for Shared Photo Streams:
    The following is from iCloud: Photo Stream FAQ
    What do I need to use Photo Stream
    To use Photo Stream, including Shared Photo Streams, you need an iCloud account, compatible devices, and up-to-date software:
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 6.0 or later
    Mac with OS X Mountain Lion v10.8.2 or later and iPhoto 9.4 or Aperture 3.4 or later
    PC with Windows 8, Windows 7, or Windows Vista (Service Pack 2) and the iCloud Control Panel 2.1 or later for Windows
    Apple TV (2nd generation) with Software Update 5.1 or later
    You can still use Photo Stream without Shared Photo Streams if your devices meet these requirements:
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 5.1 or later
    Mac with OS X Lion v10.7.5 or later and iPhoto 9.2.2 or Aperture 3.2.3 or later

  • Stop photo streaming uploading when I use some WIFI Hot Spot?

    Hi!
    Is it possible to stop photo streaming uploading when I use some WIFI Hot Spot?
    I use tethering from other 3G connection a lot, so i'm consuming a lot of Mb!

    I missed you in iChat yesterday as I was posting this to let you know.
    It is mostly as the Page 7 stuff is but laid out in a form that can be used without tables or extra div sections of HTML.
    As I am sure there are newer things that we have missed such as
    http://b-l-a-c-k-o-p.com/CamCamX.html
    and other VJ type apps that might warrant some sort of mention.
    Anyhow it might flush out some some more anyway.
    I still feel that the credit for this lies with you.
    I am going to leave it for a while to see what comes up here and in the other forums of items that might need a mention.

  • Can't find photo stream on iPhoto

    When I first had my iphone in September 2012, my photos were downloaded directly to my macbook through icloud.  Now, I can't seem to see the photos I took on my phone on my computer.  Does anyone know why it would stop working?  Do I need to update iphoto?

    Here's what you need to use iCloud and Photo Stream:

    If your MacBook meets these requirements then try the following:
    Disable Photo Stream in the System/iCloud preference pane
    and in iPhoto's Photo Share preference pane.
    Reboot and reenable both respectively. That should jump start Photo Stream.

  • Can I add photo stream albums to SkyDrive

    Can I add photo stream albums to my SkyDrive albums?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Photos in the camera roll are those which (in most cases) are taken on the device, the photostream album contains photos which have been synced from photostream in the cloud, which can include photos from your camera roll as well as from other devices using photostream. Photostream photos can be lower resolution than the same photos in the camera roll.
    Photos in photostream can be edited and saved to other albums.

  • Can't activate photo stream in iPhoto

    Hi
    It seems that I can't activate photo stream in iPhoto. When I try to click "Activate photo stream" in iPhoto > Settings > Photo Stream it uncheck itself right away. Realy frustrating. Anyone else having this problem?

    Jepp, same problem here.
    Photo Stream enables/activates  on both my iPhone and Macbook Air, but not on my iMac desktop. Enabling it in System and iPhoto Preferences is not possible ...
    Very annoying.
    Will check some other help forums too to see if a solution is available ...
    Keep us posted anyone else who discovers a solution to the problem ...
