Photos for Mac
Q: Sync with My Photo Stream
Hello,
In order to sync Photos for Mac with My Photo Stream I still have to use this 'hack':
- On your Mac, quit the Photos app.
- Launch the Activity Monitor app, which is located under Utilities in the Applications folder.
- In Activity Monitor, search for “photos” in the upper-right to filter through the list of running processes.
- There should be a few rows left on the screen. For “Photos Agent” and each of the ones starting with “com.apple” click on the row to select it, and then click the X icon in the upper-left.
- A confirmation message will appear. Click “Force Quit” to end the process.
- Once all of the processes mentioned in step 4 are gone, you can quit Activity Monitor.
- Open the Photos app again and, after a few moments, all of your latest photos should start importing from My Photo Stream.
Do you know if/when/how this will be fixed?
Thanks!
