Hello,

I'm norwegian so i've been syncing my devices onto my norwegian icloud account for years. Since I've been almost 9 years in France I since recently don't have a norwegian card anymore and my icloud stopped billing / working. So I tried just deconnecting from it and using a french (where I live now) iCloud account with the same amount of Gb (200).

My problem is my Photos app on the mac just says "Updating..." since a few weeks and I don't have any indication if it is pushing content to the cloud or not. When I check icloud in settings it says it has 9 gb of photos but I think I have a lot more on the mac.

Which brings me from problem 1 to problem 2, I moved last month to a house with ADSL in stead of fibre connection. I can see that I have 13 mbit/s connection. Do you guys think it will be impossible / extremely long syncing my 100 gb icloud library to the new icloud account ?

Do you have any tips how to do this more serenely?

To see if your photos are getting synced to the cloud, log onto icloud.com with your Apple ID. Then use the "Photos" web app to see if all of your photos are there in iCloud.
