Apple's iCloud Service Experiencing Outage

[jbachandouris]

And yet they’re releasing 15.3…..

What the heck. If it bricks my phone so what. I have AppleCare.

Funny how this happens a couple days after we read that:

Developers Unhappy With Bug Causing iCloud Unreliability

Oh Apple.

 

[Lounge vibes 05]

Doesn’t look like we’re getting iOS 15.3 today as normally that would be an hour and a half from now.

15.3 just released

 

[arkitect]

As I'm considering leaving my legacy Google Suite account that Google is going to start charging for and moving my vanity domain to iCloud+...

I'd say, don't do it!

I have both… belt and braces approach.

 

[arkitect]

15.3 just released

Hmmmm…

What could possibly go wrong? ?

 

[ACHD]

Restarting doesn't help. I've restarted Mac and iPhone, and no luck.

They remarked it as not being resolved now.

I might be wrong here, but wouldn’t A server issue impact the *download* process of an update, not the actual *installing/reboot* process?

Having not worked all day, mine *seems* to have suddenly started working.

Looks like it's starting to work again, i had to follow all the prompts again to log back in, then it said icloud keychain was off for some reason, so i enabled it, and now it hasn't asked me to log in again for the last 5 minutes. Fingers crossed.

Just when I thought things couldn't get worse...

After trying on and off all day I've managed to (I think) restore an iCloud backup. Rebooting now.

 

[dibster]

Still getting frequent message to "Update Apple ID Settings" on all devices.

 

[Bandaman]

Finally fixed ... and updated to iOS 15.3. All is well. That was a nightmare.

 

[hacdias]

It's also all working here too!

 

[wdsims3]

They updated the status page with all green. Of course, we all know how reliable that can be. ???

 

[ZebedeeG]

I seem to be back up and running.

 

[irideti]

Everything is working for me now. 12pm PST

 

[MadeTheSwitch]

I noticed problems the night before this story was published, particularly with game center, but haven’t experienced any today.

My Apple Watch Series 7 keep asking me to input my password in. Back to back!

A restart to the iCloud server is desperately needed. ??

A complete clean out of the entire management of the software division is desperately needed.

Looks like I’m able to login now, but all my notes and playlists are gone. My contacts don’t look right either.

Try a restore from your last back up date date stamp. No way it should be permanently deleted.

Thanks for the suggestion. Apple support were able to fix the issue. I had to resign back into apple music and changed a few other setting that had defaulted to no icloud backup for some reason. Took a while, but I think I have everything back now. What a relief.
Looks like all my other devices are now working too.

Ok, I'll be that American.

WTF time zone is TFT is that some metric commie time?

LOL! It's TST which means Taiwan Standard Time. Also known as GMT +8, PHT, etc.

 

[kevaquarian]

Hello people - I still have intermittent (majority of the time it's not able to connect with the server - neither IMAP nor SMTP ) issues with iCloud email, via the Mail.app - is anyone else still having issues? Status page says "resolved" but it's not resolved for my setup yet... Thanks.

I am also experiencing connection issues. So far I noticed that my calendar is not syncing between icloud.com and my phone. Also this morning I was prompted to reenter my Apple ID password.

Edit: Update, my issue might have been a Wifi router issue on my side. I was having other Wifi issues so I rebooted my router and all is good again.
