How do you get photostream to stop trying to upload photos, even after resetting it.

I am trying to stop photostream from uploading my photos. I've gone into iCloud and reset photostream several times. Each time I go back to iPhoto, it starts uploading the photos again. It is continually running on the computer. Any suggestions would be great.

Hi stritzmom,
If you want to turn off the photostream feature, you can do so by going on your iOS device in the Settings > iCoud and switch off photostream.
The reset in iCloud is to, well, reset the photostream.

How can I get iTunes to stop trying to connect to the iTunes Store?

So my company decides to cut off my access to the iTunes Store. So I go in to Prefs and turn off all things iTunes Store related. I'm still getting a message saying it can't connect to the iTunes Store. How can I get iTunes to stop trying to connect?

Disable itunes store in preferences.
It's also possible you have some podcast group trying to connect to iTunes if that's their source. Disable podcasts or at least set preferences to check for podcasts manually.

I have a new Macbook pro, about 2 months old, and at times running video, the fans starts and does not stop. how do you get it to stop.

I have a new Macbookbook, about 2 months old, and at times running video, the fans starts and does not stop. how do you get it to stop. Also i am thinking once the video is done the fan should be slowing down and getting quiet on its own.

Your fan(s) will run at high speed (i.e., loudly) while video is playing, and you can't get around that.
If your fans are not slowing down within 2-4 minutes after CPU- and/or GPU-intensive usage ends, and the application that was showing the video is still running, Quit that application. (In fact, if you're accustomed to Windows, you may not realize that simply closing a Mac application's window does not quit the application. You still need to use the Quit command in the application-name menu. There will always be a bright dot beside or below the application icon in your Dock for each application that is open.) Quit the ones you aren't using, and see whether that allows the fans to slow down without restarting the machine. If that doesn't do the trick, reset the SMC:

This reads backwards, It is the other way as "Norton update is compatible with Firefox 9".

How do you get PSE12 to stop opening the keyword menu at the top of the screen

How do you get PSE12 to stop opening the keyword menu at the top of the screen when you want to isolate tagged photos?????????????
it takes up 1/4 of the screen. This is so stupid. PSE10 had it done right, just a click box and boom all the photos tagged would be there!
This makes NO sense the way it is done now.
How do you turn it off, please . I am ready to send this back to amazon and go back to 10.

How do you get ITunes to STOP automatically scanning my hard drives?

How do you get ITunes to STOP automatically scanning my hard drives for files? I have a number of audio and video files located all over my computer. However, my music folder is located in one place. I only want ITunes to look there to ad music to my IPod? I don't want to add any videos to my IPod however, it automatically scans for this as well. Infact... I don't want ITunes to automatically scan for anything. Why is this doing this?

You can configure iTunes to sync only a subset of your music. Create a playlist in iTunes of the music you want on the iPod, and change the iPod sync settings. More info is here.

My ipod 4th gen gets wiped clean of music anytime I sync. it then only redownloads some of the music in the library and wont upload missing songs. They show on the ipod grayed out. How do I get this to stop? re-uploading takes 4 hours.

How do I get this to stop? re-uploading takes 4 hours and is never completed. I only get some of the 6000+ songs I have. This started when I updated to IOS5 i think.

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync all music and resync
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

HT202213 how do you get it to show up in the sidebar again, after setting it up?

how do i get home sharing to tapear agian in the toolbar, after i set it up?

I can sort of reproduce what your talking about I think its because your setting the Start and Due date to the same time which seems to affect the search folder that's used for the view. The following seems to work okay for me
Task taskItem = new Task(service);
taskItem.Subject = "Created From qqq";
taskItem.Body = "body";
taskItem.IsReminderSet = true;
taskItem.ReminderDueBy = DateTime.Now;
taskItem.StartDate = DateTime.Now;
taskItem.DueDate = DateTime.Now.AddHours(1);
taskItem.Status = TaskStatus.NotStarted;
ExtendedPropertyDefinition PidLidToDoOrdinalDate = new ExtendedPropertyDefinition(DefaultExtendedPropertySet.Common, 0x85A0, MapiPropertyType.SystemTime);
taskItem.SetExtendedProperty(PidLidToDoOrdinalDate, DateTime.Now.AddHours(1));
ExtendedPropertyDefinition FlagDueBy = new ExtendedPropertyDefinition(DefaultExtendedPropertySet.Common, 0x8560, MapiPropertyType.SystemTime);
taskItem.SetExtendedProperty(FlagDueBy, DateTime.Now.AddHours(1));
taskItem.Save();

How do you get apps to stop crashing?

All my apps crash every 5 seconds & its very annoying. Is there any way to make this stop? P.S. I can't reset it because my lock button suddenly became jammed as well. Thanks!

Hi vmhope,
Welcome to Discussions!
On first glance, it seems it might have something to do with writing cookies. Try quitting Safari and moving either the ~/Library/Cookies/ folder or the Cookies.plist file therein, to the desktop.

TS4022 How do you get your iPod's touch, 4th Generation, photo's on your Computer?

Please help me. I've been having a lot of trouble with syncing my iPod's (iPod touch 4th generation) photo's on to my Window 7 computer. Please explain simple and clear. I have not understood anything else. I've been searching for hours and nothing seems right. Does Photo Stream have any thing to do with it? Do i have to have an iCloud account? Please help me!

How can I get ICloud to stop trying to verify my account and stop the upgrade process? Also, I don't know my iCloud password and can't reset it. Help!

Since
the latest iOS download iCloud keeps trying to verify my account as well as keeps trying to upgrade. I can't figure out how to stop it as I also don't know my password And can't reset the iCloud PW. Any suggestions?

Welcome to the Apple community.
If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact Apple ID Support, upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
You will need to show patience with the procedure and be prepared to demonstrate without question that the account belongs to you. Don’t expect access to be restored immediately and if you aren’t the owner of the Apple ID registered to the device the account won’t be reset.
