Q: disable "Check out Photos for OS X" notification
In the top right corner of the screen there has been a notification stating that "Check out Photos for OS X" notification. How could I stop this notification? I have blocked it in notification center by set the alert style to none and uncheck all the check boxes, and I also have unchecked Automatically check for updates. But seems all not work.
OS X Yosemite (10.10.5)

Are you still using iPhoto 9.6.1? If so you don't want to launch Photos as it will automatically start to migrate your iPhoto library to a Photos library.
First go to the System/Notification preference pane, locate Photos and click on the None option and uncheck all of the checkboxes:
If that fails to stop that notification launch Photos with the Option key held down and select the option to create a new, empty library. Once the new library is created close Photos and you should stop getting that notification.
