This morning I updated my iMac and did a name change in the General tab, after I did that my Coverage for AppleCare my iMac is updating and is still updating wheel spinning. I know it takes overnight before my iPhone updates to the new name. I checked on iCloud, it already changed. my iPhone has changed. Can anybody explains this? BTW the local computer name at the bottom of sharing did change.

If you look closer at the coverage area, you see a spinning update. This is my coverage for my AppleCare subscription. Any clue what’s causing it? Way up on the right is the coverage spinning update.
Don't tell me Apple Care could be the cause; I don't have Apple Care.
;JOOP!
 
I’m not saying It’s AppleCare I think it’s iCloud system. To be honest, I don’t think changing my computer name hasn't anything to do with it like I mention earlier. I know I have coverage.

I called Apple Support on Friday, got in pretty quick. telling me after speaking with their engineers that new OS and all the new releases coming up Monday the 15th is over loading their servers, give it a few days to clear itself up.

Some other thread advises: 90 days delay. Good advice.
