How to completely disable apple cloud?

Now about the 4th time 10.10.4 has been "Clean installed"


Back with more terrible OS X torture. Seems the machine runs fine for a few minutes, then crashes ( becomes totally unresponsive) right after some apple cloud nonsense checks in. I do not use anything in Apple cloud!!


error log starts out with "server returned error" followed by a chain of failed connections to various apple servers, finally CRASH AND BURN like this...

These beach-ball/finder crash issues have been around long before the drobo was even purchased. Exactly at the time from 10.10.2 updating to 10.10.3, I started to notice them. And the 10.10.4 upgrade was an ordeal of epic proportions, dunno why but the Apple installer was having fits.


Anyway, if we cannot use the (certified-Apple-compatible) drobo, then this $5,000 machine becomes nothing but a big ugly paperweight! 🙂


All levity aside, I now have a "bone-stock" CLEAN installation of 10.10.4 with nothing 3rd party added but MS-Office.

After multiple disk wipes and 'clean installs' - it continued to crash and burn like a banshee, and I have filed multiple bug reports with Apple that are being blithely ignored. Which is VERY disappointing...


At least I managed to find the iCloud control panel yesterday, and have turned off every conceivable 'use' of the iCloud.

and so far - no beach balling in several hours (crossing fingers).


Ideally I would like to uninstall or disable the iCloud feature completely - is there any known way of doing this??

No it doesn't. I just get the window, 'log in to icloud'. Somehow I think it's all connected to the other problem with com.apple.photomoments which crashes every time I launch the mac or Photos (or both). Apparently, it's trying to login to an icloud account (that I don't have). This version of the OS (10.10.4) is the worst in a long time. So bad I had dump Apple Mail as it's pretty much inoperable.


I love the way Apple makes assumptions about how we use the Mac. Does Apple think we all use icloud?

"Does Apple think we all use iCloud?" - no, but they sure as heck want us all to buy into it.

Because its a cash cow! Once you fill it up, the extra space is RATHER expensive. Myself I have zero use for it, now and forever 🙂


But, VERY INTERESTING is the fact that since I have disabled everything I could possibly disable regarding iCloud (still miffed it won't let me sign out - that HAS TO BE A BUG! - in fact I have reported it...)


Anyway, so far... ever since I disabled everything I could possibly disable regarding iCloud - I have NOT had a single Finder crash, nor any Beach-ball leading to totally unresponsive system (leading to hard reset).


CO-INCIDENCE ?!?!?!????

How can you sign out of something you haven't signed into?


What annoys me about Apple's total lack of response is just that; it's lack of response. We had the same thing go down with the Wi-fi bug of a couple of years ago. It went on for months without Apple EVER acknowledging that there was a problem.


So too with com.apple.photomoments crashing every time you startup and every time you run Photos (what a dog of a programme!). What is this obsession with changing everything? You've no sooner figured out the latest mashup of the GUI and Apple have changed it again! It's endless and to no point except what? What is the point?
