HELP - how do I Stop Sharing Every Photo on Every Device?!?!?!?

Why have Apple decided that I want to share all of my photos with every single device?! I DON'T!!! There are thousands of them and they fill up devices so that apps no longer work - a totally stupid idea - can anyone please help before I delete iphoto!!!!

You do know, don't you, that your first post gave us absolutely zero information from which to work with in offering a solution. If you havn't fixed your problem yourself give us the following:
System and exact iPhoto versions
What devices you're syncing to and how
If you have an iCloud account and if it's activated
And you can leave the attitude at the door.

How I can stop sharing my icloud with a device

Somebody stoll my iPhone and that person is using the phone and the apps installed. That person is using my imessage and I can see all what that person is written to others. Is there a way to block the phone to keep accessing my icloud?
Thank you.

One of my friends had same situation, they just took picture with message, I know where you are and if you do not return phone in hotel where you found it, I will report you to the police tonight. Phone was returned to hotel and was mailed to that person by hotel admin, after she already left town.

While composing email, keep getting "Unable to save as a draft" every 30 seconds. I've disable auto save and it didn't help.How can I stop this message?

Mike,
Thank you for taking the time to look at my app. This is my last major stumbling block that I have to resolve for this and other forms in the app.
Actually, I did use the Form Wizard for Auto DML to originally create the form. It was great. It created most of the Buttons, Items and Validations automatically (basically most of the page). I just needed to create some Processes and Computations. Two of which were the Processes to update the 'create_dt' and 'created_by' fields and 'update_dt' and 'updated_by' fields. The Create process updates the fields just fine.
However, my problem seems to be that the Hidden 'create_dt' and 'created_by' fields aren't picking up the values from a record that is being editted. Then when I attempt to save the record those fields are NULL, causing the DB NOT NULL constraint to throw an exception for those fields. In the back of my mind I seem to remember seeing some post stating something to the effect that the information in fields with a Source Type of Database Column is just displayed and does not affect Session State items.
Even with that, I am still wondering just why the 'created_by' Page Item shows the value that is in the DB record being updated, but the 'create_dt" does not (as can be seen in my first posting). It is the 'create_dt' Page Item (:P205_CREATE_DT) not having the DB records 'create_dt' info in it that appears to be the problem.
Thanks,
Tom

How do I stop sharing mail with other users on my computer

How do I stop sharing mail with other users on my Macbook pro?

You may have to set up different user accounts in the computer if you wish to
continue sharing the computer among other people, and only use the Mail app.
Otherwise, if you use a webmail such as yahoo, gmail, or other, just use a browser
and login each time; then there is no saving of your email to the computer as such.
I've never used an email client software, nor had an ISP based email account. So
my numerous computers have never downloaded email into software. No loss.
But the answers do include setting up extra user accounts, not admin level, so the
other users do not mess with the operating system; a standard account or just a
guest account to use a browser to access web-based login email accounts, works.
There are third-party email client for OS X, some are free applications, others are
part of a larger browser product, such as SeaMonkey, & other Mozilla derivatives.
They provide an email segment or client aspect; unlike Firefox that's a browser.
Setup information should be within the Help viewer in the computer itself. Or by a
simple search online, including the OS X version and any email client software
your computer may have installed. Some browser software includes email client.
Also there are several ways to go in this matter. I don't see questions, only answers.
To learn how the Mail application works, if you want to import everyone's mail, then
figure how to set up user accounts in the OS X. Or use web-mail & login by browser.
Hopefully you can find the best solution for the unasked question.
Good luck & happy computing!

In finder, it says that I am shared to a pc which I didn't know about nor do i know the pc, how do I stop sharing with it?

In finder, it says that I am shared to a pc which I didn't know about nor do i know the pc, how do I stop sharing with it?

I gather that you are seeing other "pee-seas" (and | other hosts) in MAC OSX Finder UI under SHARED ? T/F ?? The Finder is reflecting what others are sharing.
In any case consider these items:
1) Other hosts on your network (local) have ITEMS (folders and structures) that they themselves are sharing
with anyone on there network and to others outside who will access them via a specic host nae or address. KInda like your mate who has some files he wants to share with you. You connect to his host (machine) either by a host name (yourmate.com), an IP address (33.33.33.11) or on your local area network usually over Bonjour (yourmates_macbookair.local).
Simply THEY ARE sharing their stuff with you and this your MACs FINDER makes then apear under the SHARED parion of the side bar in the UI. This is likely what you are seeing
microsoft platforms have their users share DIRECTORIES mainly through the SHARING properties for that opject. YEp.. and then you can at a minimum SEE it . HOwever this doesnt mean you can access the contents.... This is all familiar to most.. nothing to be concerned about.
Probably no need for concern.....
(IMO), its amazing the number of PC users that unknowingly expose their folder contents on a hotel WIFI or ETHERNET network... its astonishing....!
2) YOUR CONCERN that you are sharing your stuff:
I'll hazard a guess that form you minmal description that you may feel that others on your network can SEE YOUR STUFF?? Bt Default, any user can see ANYTHING you have put in your ~/Public folder (theis is your Public folder in your home directory. Usually they can ONLY read whats there unless you have gone out of your way to change the ACCESS CONTROL LIST (ACL) to an access for others other than READ ONLY.
An extention so to speak of this sharing is the concept of a "DROP BOX" that is also maintained by default in your homes public folder (~/Public/Drop Box). This is very useful for people to GIVE you their files by DROPPING then into this ~/Public/Drop Box folder.
So THIS folder is exposed for all to see on your local network.
How to stop anyone seeing anything?.. easy..
Step 1: go to SYSTEM PREFERENCES/Sharing/ and UNTICK the "File Sharing" service. Its probably already unticked. This will stop exposing anything that you have shared to others. pee-sea users may need your to enable SMB/CIFS TO READ YOUR STUFF. YOU WONT HAVE THIS ENABLED UNLESS YOU DID IT YOURSELF. Additionally there are windows .apps to read mac file systems too... so stopping all fie sharing will do the trick
Step 1.1: if you dont want others to see your ~/Public folder either then simply select the Public folder in your finder, open the Finder inspector (+i), open the disclosure triangle for "sharing and permissions" and then set the access by others to "NO ACCESS"
Step 2: while you are in SYSTEM PREFERENCES/Sharing/ and UNTICK the "Remote Login" and "Screen Sharing" services. Its very likely already unticked. This will stop exposing remote services such as ssh and vnc anything that you have shared to others.
Step 3: for extra go to SYSTEM PREFERENCES/Security/Firewall and enable any setting for network here that you want to disable or filter... seek out these apple discussion forums.. tonnes of stuff here on his.
Others reading this thread will also have good advice and opinions.
Post your results for others to see.

How do I stop sharing my Calendar?

How do I stop sharing my Calendar?
I have been sharing my Calendar with someone but I no longer wish to, how do I stop sharing it with them? I've looked through the application's menus but nothing jumps out at me directing me to a way to stop sharing.

Link ( http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2695 ) only loads a blank page.
[ http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2695
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2691?viewlocale=en_US ]
I found this iCloud: Add or remove participants from a shared calendar but what happens on my Calendar when I follow the instructions is not the same as the KB article shows. My Calendar version is 7.0 (1841.1) on Mavericks 10.9.5
What Apple support page says:
This is what I get. From my only iCloud Calendar 'Me' (step 1) to 'Name of Shared with Party' to remove (step 2) which is grayed out, and not selectable, in the next step (step 3). Nowhere does it say Remove Person.

I have Windows7. HOw can I download shared photostream photos from others' shared photostream

I use Windows7. How can I download shared photostream photos from others' shared photosteam photos using ICloud?

How are you doing the downloading?
If you download raw files with iPhoto, iPhoto can only edit the JPEG preview that is embedded with each raw file. iPhoto is not a true raw editor, because it's a consumer-level product, not professional-level.
The files should remain in RAW format if you download any of these ways, by using:
Apple Image Capture (in your Utilities folder)
Canon Digital Photo Professional (comes with your camera, but since the 40D is so old, go to the Canon site and upgrade your copy to the latest version for compatibility with the latest Mac OS X)
Apple Aperture
Adobe Lightroom
Any other professional raw organizer/editor like Capture One

Help!! How do I stop sharing my notes with my iphone and ipad?

We have 2 IPhone 4s & 1 IPAD, they all see to share the notes that 1 person takes...how do we stop this process? Do we have to create or use seperate Apple ID's?

Settings.app -> iCloud -> toggle notes.
It sounds like you want to share purchases but have different iCloud accounts, that is possible.

How do I stop B/W photos changing to colour?

I am running LR 2.7 on a Mac and this weekend for the first time, I set my camera to black & white mode and took a series of raw photos. When I imported them they all came across in the filmstrip as black & white but as soon as I started viewing them they changed to colour. I know the raw file contains all the colour data etc. but I really wanted to work on the black & white image from the camera and not have to start from a colour image? What did I do wrong? How can I stop it changing in future when I shoot raw files?

Lightroom knows little to nothing about your in-camera process settings. So, setting the camera to B&W and expecting the images to be correctly rendered is futile. The following post from the FAQ forum should help explain the reasons http://forums.adobe.com/thread/358016?tstart=0
If you really want your images to appear as B&W in Lightroom you can apply one of the B&W develop presets during import.

How do i stop sharing apps from one phone to another one

can some one please help i cant figure out how to stop sharring my game apps with my daughter

What do you mean by 'stop sharing my game apps' ? If you mean that any app that you download is automatically being downloaded on your daughter's device then go into Settings > iTunes & App Store on her device and turn off automatic downloads for apps on it.
If you mean that your game progress is being synced between them then are you using Game Centre and the same account ?

How i can stop sharing my contacts with other iphone after installing find my iphone?

After installing find my iphone in other devices my contacts starting sharing with that device. How i can stop that?

The two devices are using the same iCloud ID, hence they are syncing the contacts, as the system is designed to do.
BTY, I'm not sure what your intention was to install the Find My iPhone app, but if you are trying to start that service, the app won't help. It is intended to locate OTHER devices. To start the Find My iPhone service, you do it via the settings.

Iphoto has stopped sharing my photos to facebook

My iphoto 09 has stopped exporting/sharing my photos to facebook.
I always uploaded in this manner earlier, but for some strange reason, it doesnt work with a click of a button anymore.
If I click on the FB icon, after selecting the respective album, it comes up with this massage, ' Do you want to set up iphoto to publish to FB? Though it already was set up...
Neverthless, I do that, I select - Set up- after which, it takes me to my preexisting FB page, in a little window...where I can navigate withen it...but then there is no other option...except, 'cancel'. So I end up clicking/selecting, 'cancel'.
My mac book OS is 10.7.5.
Please advice.
Am I doing something wrong...?

Appearently there is an issure between iPhoto and FB - there are many reoports of this - one work around is to export photos to a desktop folder un use a browser to upload from there
And someone posted a suggested solution a week or so ago - I have no idea as to the validity of the solution but some people seemd to find it helpful - you can find it by searching the forums (maybe even in the more like this list) and see what you think about it
