IPhone photos app crashing consistently with large iCloud photo library beta - how can I completely remove?

Hi - I turned on the iCloud photo library beta on my phone weeks ago.  Worked fine with no issues.  Then the Yosemite OS X beta 10.10.3 was released with the new Photos app.  Once i loaded that new app, it converted my Aperture library and began to upload around 75,000 photos.
My iPhone almost immediately became sluggish (I assumed because it was downloading the pictures) and then eventually started crashing every time I go into the app (after a few seconds).  I assumed it was because it showed 75,000 images in my Cameral Roll/Moments so I turned of the iCloud photo library beta.  It prompted to be certain I was ok with deleting the images, which I said OK to.  But it still shows 75,000 images in the camera roll and anything I tried to do with any photo has become completely unusable (generally just crashing each time).
Did I miss a step in the process?
Is this just me?
I'm trying to backup my iPhone but it keeps erroring out with the message "iTunes could not back up the iPhone "name" because the iPhone disconnected".  Otherwise I would just recreate .  Please help

It can free up some storage but it doesn't work like Dropbox. See the following quotes from iCloud Photo Library beta FAQ - Apple Support
I personally don't use iCloud Photo Library as it is still beta. Additionally, I have a Mac computer and there is not yet a Mac Photos app that is compatible.
How does iCloud Photo Library save space on my device?
If you turn on Optimize [device] Storage, iCloud Photo Library will automatically manage the size of your library on your iOS device, so you can make the most of your device's storage and access more photos than ever. iCloud Photo Library stores the original, high-resolution photos and videos in iCloud and can keep lightweight, device-optimized versions on each of your devices. As long as you have enough storage, recent photos and videos that you access the most will stay on your device at full resolution.
To turn on Optimize [device] Storage on your device, tap Settings > iCloud > Photos or Settings > Photos & Camera, then select Optimize [device] Storage. You need an Internet connection to access an original photo or video that’s stored only in iCloud.
How does iCloud delete photos and videos from iCloud Photo Library?
Deleting a photo or video from your Photos app will also remove the item from iCloud Photo Library and from your iCloud storage allocation. Photos and videos you remove can be recovered from the Recently Deleted album for 30 days. After 30 days, your content will be removed from the Recently Deleted album. Photos are backed up on our servers for up to 30 days after they're deleted from the Photos app. If you need to recover these photos during that time, contact Apple Support.

Then open explorer, enable hidden files, open your ipod (as you would any disc) open hidden file with strange names and copy all of them on your new hard drive. Then drag all this strange-named files in your itunes...woooo...now those strange names become your songs...it is magick

  • How can I completely remove failed App Store downloads?

    I have two purchases from the app store that have failed - they will not complete no matter what I try. How can I completely remove them to start again? Thanks,

    is what I'm staring at. I've tried all sorts and this is where I get. No errors. No messages. Nothing.
    What is this machine doing and why isn't it simple to clear the cache/temp files and go again with the download?

  • How can I completely remove my App Store purchases ?

    How can I completely remove my App Store purchases ? I delete certain apps from the iPod but they still are listed under 'purchased apps'.
    I need to completely remove then from history as well

    You can't permanently delete any items from you purchase history, all you can do is hide them so that they don't show in the Purchased tab for re-downloading : hiding and unhiding.

    It is not a good idea, to manually delete registry keys. Java uninstaller removes all registry entries that are needed to perform clean future installation.
    You might see some of the keys not removed by Java unistaller but they do not prevent any user from doing fresh installation of Java in future.
    Java removal tool is currently being developed, but that is for removing old/unsecure and unsupported Java versions. The tool isn't really intended to remove current/above security baseline versions of Java.
    Also, the tool does a standard un-install using msiexec /x. It won't specifically delete registry keys - it lets msiexec do it.

  • Some photo apps crashing when trying to import photos on iOS 8

    this is happening with a few photo apps, especially those that don't detect the "photos" folder aka "all photos", but detect only smart albums and albums. These apps, not all of them but some of them (EyeEm, Handy Photo) crash as soon as I attempt to import a photo. Never happened before.

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

  • How can I completely remove a game from my app store account?

    Ive tried all the different methods I can find of deleting/mark as hidden but I keep getting annoying weekly updates come through. I dont like the game and will never play it but it seems without starting a new Apple ID and losing everything I have paid for on iPhone and Mac Im stuck with a continual App Store badge icon for a game I dont want.

    I gave in and installed the update but it still showed as an update. I installed the same update 3 times and it still show as an available update so I gave up. Guess Ill have to put up with it for a few months and hope Mountain Lion has an App Store that works properly.

  • Apps crashing consistently with the new iOS5. ??

    New upgrade to iOS5 on iPad 2 is causing all apps to crash. Also finding battery power significantly reduced on both iPad 2 and iPhone 4.
    Anyone experiencing similar issue?

    Some users have reported that the battery power doesn't last as long in iOS 5 as it did in the previous iOS. You can do a search in the upper right corner of this site to find other discussions. I have had no issues whatsoever with my battery - still good at about 10 hours a day.
    I am experiencing Safari crashes with some regularity. According to the Diagnostic and Usage Setting reports on my iPad, it appears that they are a result of low memory. At least that is how I read the reports. The iOS is supposed to handle memory issues - or so I always thought - but I would have to assume that it is not working now for whatever reason . It could be something that I am doing, but I really would be hard pressed to figure out what that would be.
    If the preinstalled apps are working OK, try downloading any free app. That helps to reset something with the other apps and they may quit crashing.
    If ALL apps are crashing, try the basics first.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    Close all apps. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus (-) sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Resync with iTunes. Connect the iPad to your computer and resync. Also try unsyncing all of the pass -  and then resync them back to the iPad.

    I'm a school teacher for a charter school. I check my emails at home from:

    When I arrive at that page, I type in my username and password.
    It is an Exchange 2003 server.
    I just got a new IPhone 3Gs with AT&T. (I also have a Macbook 2,1 laptop with Snow Leopard updated and installed).
    I have looked online for days and days for suggestions, but nothing's worked. My administration isn't too helpful on this matter.
    I can go to the website listed above and check my emails from school, but I cannot set-up the account on my IPhone.
    I have tried entering my information over and over again....PLEASE HELP!
    Thank you for taking time to read this and offer any helpful advice!!!

    Okay...I checked with my school administration about the Exchange Account, and it is set-up for mobile devices to receive their emails via cell phones.
    Still, it keeps "Failing" at connecting.
    I need to type in my:

  • I can't find a preference to keep mail on the server as it's deleted on individual devices. We have 4 Mac devices and a PC running W8 with the iCloud control panel. How can we keepthe mail on the server as it is deleted from the individual devices?

    How do I keep mail on the server as it is deleted on individaul devices? We have 4 Apple devices and a W8 laptop. We sort and read mail on all of them, but have found that deleting mail on one deletes it on all of them.

    Yahoo and Gmail both support POP if you wish.
    All modern email systems are Imap (because it supports multiple and mobile devices)
    I do not recommend POP under any circumstances, it can not be synchronized so unless you do not use Mobile devices at all (iPhones etc) it is useless.
    Yahoo users (search this site) have endless problems and Gmail is highly non-standard. Expect a learning curve for that one.
    Are you short of server space, why do you need to do this rather retrograde step?

  • Apple OS 5.0 added 3 redundant apps to my touch w/o my permission.  How can they be removed?

    I recently upgraded the OS on my touch to 5.01.  Apple has, without asking, added 3 useless or redundant apps - Newsstand; Messages and Reminders.  I don't want or need any of them.  Any way to get rid of them?  They are not removeable like 3rd party apps.  Big brother Steve is still working!

    These are part of iOS 5, clearly mentioned on the information page for iOS 5, so they should have come as no surprise. They are not redundant; Messages is a new instant messaging service, and Reminders is a to-do app, something which many people have clamored for. Newstand is a specialized folder for holding magazine apps. Whether or not you find them useful or not is of course your call.
    As is the case with all apps bundled with iOS these cannot be removed, though any of them can be moved to another home screen where they're out of the way. Messages and Reminders can be placed in a folder, along with any other bundled apps you don't use, if you wish. Newsstand not being an app but rather a specialized folder cannot be hidden in another folder (at least not reliably; there's some trickery you'll find on the web that can do so in some cases).

  • How can I completely remove my FF 4.0.1 from my system. Ever since I upgraded from 3.? I have had problems with FF. I use XP Pro service pack3.

    I have performed all the TS methods suggested. All I want is to purge all of FF from my system. I have purged profiles, and others as recommended during TS. It doesn't matter if all plugins are disabled or not.I want a very clean system of FF (registry included)
    I will then try to reinstall FF 4.0.1 to see if it works as designed.
    IE works fine,but I prefer FF.

    It is not a good idea, to manually delete registry keys. Java uninstaller removes all registry entries that are needed to perform clean future installation.
    You might see some of the keys not removed by Java unistaller but they do not prevent any user from doing fresh installation of Java in future.
