Hi everyone. I attempt to restore the system from a Time Machine backup, but the problem doesn't solve.
Issue solved by formatting my Mac and installing High Sierra 10.13 and set up all my apps from scratch.
My iPhoto library finally synchronised, and still functioning correctly after I upgrade my macOS to High Catalina 10.15.7 (19H2).
The problem that I am facing now is that my event folders didn't synchronise. All my photos (139.917) downloaded, and my library is up-to-date, but my albums did not, although that exists into my iCloud / iPad /iPhone.

Yes, my Mac is up to date (Catalina 10.15.6).

Hi Brian
Thank you for your help. Unfortunately doesn't work.
I can disable all items in iCloud into safe and normal mode, but not Photos.
Dear PsyDye
I reinstall macOS on my Mac twice as disturbed on the above article, without any result.
Photos still cannot be disable from my Mac's iCloud preferences. 😔
After 48 hrs all event folders synchronised. It seems that after almost all photos and video are downloaded then the event folders synchronised.
