Is it possible to start icloudpd from a particular date? (Error 410)

[R2SB]

Hi folks,
I was running with --untilfound 15, but hit a snag at some point where photos were giving the error "Gone 410". I hit Cmd+C to cancel the process but when I ran it again the --untilfound command saw the files I'd collected today already and stopped. I understand the problem, but I don't know how to get around it.

Is it possible to set icloudpd to start at a particular date? (e.g. I know that I'm missing between January and April 2025 but have the photos from April to June 2025)

Alternatively, can I set the program to stop at a particular date (rather than use --untilfound)?

Thanks all

Just to follow up, I've re-started the package a few times and at different points in the process it stops with this error:
Traceback (most recent call last):

There are some followup "During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:" but the one above seems to be the first domino to fall. I can't pinpoint what changes on my network might be contributing to it (I had just left it to run) and it fails at different files. Very odd.

But I end up at the same point: it'd be great to be able to start icloudpd at a certain date.

This seems like a network issue

See if --skip-created-before does what you need.
