I have iCloud turned on for my iPhone and Mac. Half way through the initial sync of 50,000 items it stopped uploading. Now i have 25k on my iPhone and in the cloud. My mac has 50,000 (although none of the recent ones too on my iPhone) which is stuck on 'uploading' (and has been for several weeks now). I have space on my hard drive (although only 50GB) so unsure why it's stopped uploading and downloading. Does anybody have a solution please?
iMac 27", macOS 10.15

If the Mac is showing no signs of uploading the photos, you can start the sync over. Try going to System Preferences/iCloud (Apple ID for Catalina) and stop Photos syncing by unchecking the box. Wait a couple of minutes, then check syncing. Allow time for the sync to complete. The Photos sync is very, very slow.
Last resort - have you tried signing out of iCloud and then sign back in?
Thanks although neither links provided anything that worked
Thanks - i've tried both those already with no success.
You are welcome. How much iCloud Storage space do you have?
plenty - 1.8TB and 50GB on my Mac hard drive
If the total amount of all the photos is close to or over 50 GB, you may need more disk space on the computer while the sync is taking place.
