Jerry, have you turned off auto-upload?

I have been uploading images to Amazon Cloud since Tuesday morning and I only have 62,082 images.


:) That initial upload does take some time ;)

I had roughly 30k images, mostly old JPG's, but the last few years worth were bigger raw files and TIFFS, so they took a bit of time to get there.

I also have a 10 Mbps upload speed, so roughly 20 seconds per raw file for me.

Glad the initial upload finished!

Jerry - sounds like the uploader is starting automatically during computer bootup? If so, from the start menu, try typing "msconfig", click on the 'startup' tab, and see if there's startup item for the uploader. If one's there and the box to the left is checked, uncheck it, hit 'apply' and 'okay.' Maybe that will do it.

15 minutes later. Well, I reread the thread and see that I should have read it more carefully the first time. Not an auto loading problem, which I don't think it has a capability for any way. So, my short answer is, I've had similar situations where I started an upload and hadn't opened the folder to see that there were raws included. "Cancel" has always worked. Sorry for my obvious eagerness to reply without fully understanding the issue. :(

I got an answer to my email. They want me to call them and see what they can do. I'll call, but not today.

I looked at Crashplan, but it fails to keep my Mac from going to sleep, so the backups can take forever, especially the initial one, so scrap that possibility.


You can always open Preferences under the Apple Menu and turn of the "sleep setting" until CrashPlan or any other program has finished uploading. You make it sound like a real problem?
