    You can reset the Photo Stream only from an iOS device. Not through a Web browser.

    Reset your Photo Stream

    You can reset your Photo Stream by removing all your Photo Stream photos from iCloud (the last 30 days of photos uploaded from your devices).

    Note:  Resetting your Photo Stream doesn’t remove any photos already downloaded to Photo Stream on your devices, nor does it remove photos already imported into your iPhoto or Aperture library (if automatic import is turned on). For more information about deleting photos from Photo Stream, please go to this support article on the Apple Support website.
