I see no signs of Photo Stream on my systems. Therefore the instructions about the shut down lead me to trying to prove a negative. How can I confirm that I am clear and clean of Photo Stream?

Look in Photos iCloud settings pane. If My Photo Stream is selected unselected it. That all you need to do. And if you don't it'll just go away on July 26th without any consequ3ence to your library. \\


Loss of My Photo Stream means we'll need to use AirDrop or cable transfer to get photos f rom our iPhone's Photos library to our Mac's Photos library.
