All iCloud Services Down for Some Users [Update: Fixed]

[iSteve-O]

And I just switched back to an iPhone. Bad timing on my part. My bad

 

[OddyOh]

Both my Mac and iPhone keep pestering me for my iCloud password. Is this related or another issue I'm having?

Yup, super annoying. Hopefully they fix it soon. No point selling Cloud services if they can't actually provide the services.

OMG!!!!! I'm leaving Dropbox for iCloud Drive. God help me........

Server side update

Given the timing, I would suggest that it is probably down so Apple can fix the reset settings bug. At least, I sure hope it is.

 

[WigWag Workshop]

All is working again for me now

 

[leesmith2]

...aaaaand we're back.

I put some masking tape on the sides of my MBA and everything is good now.

How true it is.

 

[dumastudetto]

It's just a minor glitch that Apple will resolve quickly. This happens to everyone including Google. Hopefully everyone can stay calm and avoid any unnecessary drama.

FYI this isn't affecting me at all. I've had 100% uptime with iCloud since the day it launched.

Hm, wonder if that's why my iPhone 6 just will not restore anything. It keeps sticking at the end of that restore progress bar. Either way - sort it out Apple!

 

[simonmet]

Sure glad I didn't enable iCloud drive yet!

That's a pretty major bug so I hope they figure it out and users can get their data back.

 

[kycophpd]

Well whomever just pushed the 8.0.1 update to the iCloud server just got fired.....

Oh for Pete's sake, the clouds' been down before. People panicking for nothing. Sure it's annoying, but it's not the fricken end of the world. We're a bunch of spoiled tech-brats. Relax and all will be fine. Don't get so "bent out of shape" ie. Don't get 6+'d.

 

[genovelle]

With all this problems Apple is having with iCloud, is it time for Apple to outsource all their online serves to a company with experience in the area ... maybe Google? and just concentrate on making gold watches?

You mean the Google who had a similar outage just a couple of months ago. http://9to5google.com/2014/06/04/google-drive-experiencing-outage-google-investigating/

 

[samiznaetekto]

hope it stays live for a few minutes it'll take me to remove all this iCrap from all of my devices......

 

[aaronvan]

There's a problem, feathers, iron
Bargain buildings, weights and pulleys
Feathers hit the ground
Before the weight can leave the air

Buy the cloud and sell the cloud
And tell the cloud, and tell the cloud
Fall on me (what is it up in the air for)
Fall on me (if it's there for long)
Fall on me (it's over, it's over me)

Go for it.

Dropbox has had multiple outages, as have google, and OneDrive.

 

[Michaelgtrusa]

Back up now.

 

[deviant]

This is why I don't like "cloud" services. My data, my servers, my control. If something goes wrong, I'm the one who can fix it. Much better.

Yeah sure, cause if your home server goes down because your ISP ducked something up and your internet is down YOU are the one who fixes it. You actually CAN do something about it.. Suuuuuuure...

And I am sure he can replace/fix his own servers in less than 5 hours time too! Must be nice to have money.

 

[Trapezoid]

Phew it's fixed. Coulda sworn apple was doomed because of an outage.

Right? Maybe they are testing new thing, like apple pay, like sms relay or something else. Maybe they are implementing them right now to iCloud. The report says for SOME users, in fact i don't have any problems with it, but people are so goddamn arrogant and feel so entitled.. "i can't send an iMessage.. i can't take this BS anymore!!!!!!!"
