How to Cancel Photo Stream Setup

It appears that the only way to cancel Photo Stream Setup is to pull out the power cable. Not even an on-off switch available. What genius designed this brilliant piece of UI? Or am I'm the genius failing to find the obvious?

If you delete the photos that are on Camera Roll, your Photo Stream photos won't be modified on your PC. However, if you delete them from Photo Stream, they will be deleted from the PC.
To keep your photos on your PC, go to Photo Stream folder on the PC (you will see it on Windows Explorer's sidebar) and copy all the photos to another folder

  • TS3989 I have photo stream setup on iPhoto on my macbook pro and I just got 2 iPhones for my family and only one streams photos to iCloud photo stream.  Both iPhones have the same Apple ID and have Photo Stream turned on.  Shouldn't both iPhones stream ph

    I have photo stream setup on iPhoto on my MacBook Pro and on 2 new iPhones that have the same AppleID as the MacBook Pro.  However only one iPhone will stream photos to iPhoto on the MacBook Pro.  All these devices were purchased in the last 2 weeks.  What setting is wrong?

    Photostream only syncs photos over Wi-Fi, make sure you are connected to Wi-Fi to begin with.
    Photostream only syncs when the camera app is closed, ensure it is closed.
    Photostream only syncs when the battery is above 20%, try recharging the device
    Try disabling photo stream on your device (settings > iCloud), restarting your device and then re-enabling photo stream.
    If this doesn't help you may need to reset photo stream. You can do this at icloud.com by clicking on your name in the top right corner and then the advanced settings in the pop-up dialogue box that appears.
    Note: disabling photostream and re-enabling it will result in any photos that are currently in the photostream album on your device, that are older than 30 days old, not being added back.

  • How do shared photo streams affect iCloud storage?  Do they last forever or are the still subject to the 1000 photo/30 day rule?

    Stay forever and don't count towards your iCloud storage use.

  • How to open Photo Stream in Windows

    I took a bunch of pictures and video on my iPhone 3Gs (5.0) and don't know how to open Photo Stream on my PC (Win 7). I can see a folder in my pictures library, but I can open the ithmb files. Thank You.

    That would be a question for the iCloud forum - iPhoto does not run on a PC

  • How quickly does photo stream sync for you?

    how quickly does photo stream sync for you?

    I have seen some posts floating about here complaining that photos don't or at least don't immediately sync to all devices. I think a small number of these people may not realise that syncing requires wifi and not 3G, one must also remember this community is like a doctors surgery, it is where people come if they have aches and pains.

  • 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

  • How to Manage Photo Stream & Apple TV

    Hi! I have apple TV, and I love that I can use pics from Photo stream as a screen saver. I just can't figure out how to make Apple TV draw the pics from the photo stream folder on my computer instead of the photo stream folder on my iphone. Any help is appreciated!

    Any idea to get Aperture accepting the photo stream coming from 2 Apple IDs?
    IOS 7 supports writing of persons with different AppleIDs to the same  shared photo stream.
    And I expect that iPhoto and Aperture will soon support this too.
    From the IOS ipad user guide: http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1595/en_US/ipad_user_guide.pdf
    Share streams of photos and videos with people you choose. Friends you’ve chosen who have an iCloud account—and iOS 6 or later or OS X Mountain Lion or later—can join your stream, view the photos you add, and leave comments. If they have iOS 7, they can add their own photos and videos to the stream. You can also publish your stream to a website for anyone to view.

  • How to sync photo stream on ipad

    How do I sync my photo stream on ipad

    What do you mean sync your Photo Stream?
    Photo Stream only works after you enable it on all of your devices. After you turn Photo Stream on, any photos that you take with one of your iDevices will sync to your other iDevices.
    If you want to import the Photo Stream Photos to your computer (you don't sync the photos using iTunes) then have a look at this.

    Make sure that you go to the very end of the in article to see the section about Photo Stream.

  • How to recover photo stream pictures?

    My photo stream album disappeared.  I think it happened when I enabled the "iCloud Photo Library (beta)".  I thought it was suppose to upload the photo stream album to iCloud but instead it just deleted it without ever asking me if I wanted them to be deleted.  Does anyone know what happened? Or how to recover them?  They do not show up in "recently deleted album" because I never actually deleted them
    Ive tried 3rd party software but no luck.  Since half of the pics in the photo stream album were not in the regular pictures album and not on the hard drive they cannot be found.  When I went to the iCloud website there were only 97 pictures and not the 1000 pics that were originally in the photo stream album.
    My phone has never been backed up to iTunes so that is no help
    If these pictures are not on my phone or iCloud, where can they be and is it possible to get them back?

  • How to erase photo stream

    How does one go about erasing what is located in the Photo Stream? I can see and erase all photos on "Camera Roll" by hooking iPhone to computer and looking under Internal Storage but can not find where or how to erase/delete a photo that is located in Photo Stream. I "copied" photos from the Stream to the Roll and then can delete it from there but it's still in Photo Stream...this could be a deal breaker on whether I keep my phopne or move to an Android phone.

    You can reset the Photo Stream at the iCloud website.

  • How to manage photo stream from 2 iCloud accounts in Aperture 3

    For the time being, my wife and I used to share the same iCloud account,
    This was very convenient to share the family's calendar, contacts, and photos!
    But from iOS 7, the sharing of Apple ID for the family looks compromised, iMessage and FaceTime are using common IDs on all devices connected with the same account...
    I'm now considering creating an account for each of us and could find a solution for calendar, contacts, BUT not for photos!

  • Photo stream is showing up in iphoto recent but not web and I am not able to join the shared photo stream.  all of my software is updated.  can someone tell me how to get photo stream in the web source list? thanks!

    Can someone help me get Photo Stream to appear under Web in the iPhoto Source List? I have updated all my software.  iPhoto 11, Mac OS X 10.7.5  All of my preferences are checked.  I am able to see the shared Photo Stream on my iPad, but not my Mac.  The Mac iPhoto photos from the shared photo stream are appearing in the Photo Stream (under Recent), but I thought they would appear as a shared Photo Stream in its own file/album (like on the iPad and iPhone)  - labeled with the shared Photo Stream's title.  Is this supposed to happen on the Mac?  Thanks!

    So you are saying for it to do what i want: shared photo stream to appear in web then i need to upgrade.
    Yes
    Does that mean i purchase the new software an it's not just an update?
    Yes
    Your profile indicates your running 10.7.5.  For shared Photo Streams you need to be running 10.8.2 or later: 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
    So you'll need to upgrade to Mt. Lion.
    iPhoto requirements are free updates for iPhoto '11
