Photo Stream keeps turning off in Aperture

I have Aperture 3.2 and have enabled Photo Stream, several times. It syncs all of my photos with my iPhone 4 and imports the new ones in a project. I close Aperture and reopen it several days later, go to the Photo Stream library and Photo Stream is asking if I want to turn Photo Stream on. All of the pictures are gone. I turn it back on and it spends the better part of a hour updating. I am using a newer MacBook Pro and sometime I power it completely down if it will be in the case for awhile. When this happens I have checked the iCloud settings in the System Preferences and Photo Stream is checked. Anyone else haveing this problem? I seen some people are having the same trouble with iPhoto.

Thanks,

Mike

Are you also using (or trying to use) Photo Stream with iPhoto?

Photo Stream only works in OR iPhoto OR Aperture at the same time.

I have the same problem. Apple should make an update as fast as possible! -.-

It doesn't work in Aperture AND iPhoto, so it's a problem with the photostream and iCloud itself.

Ps. The solution posted above my post is also not working. Even if you open Aperture 3 hours after rebooting, photostream is turned off..

I wanted to resurrect this thread to see if anybody else has a similar issue to mine: my personal Aperture library is on an external drive. I plug it into my work computer occasionally and plug it into my home computer as well. At work, it seems like I have to enable photo stream all the time.

Is it because it's getting confused between my home machine and my work machine? At work, I have a different library which is for all my work photos, and which I don't want photo stream enabled.
