iCloud-iPhone

Apple has been on a software rollout spree lately. iCloud and iOS 5 were both released to the public this past Wednesday alongside a slew of other app releases and updates.

Some of this week’s releases have also caused significant problems for many consumers. Certain iCloud customers have been experiencing faulty connectivity since the product’s launch two days ago. Luckily, Apple offers a way to check iCloud’s status from the web.

The iCloud status page on Apple’s support site shows you the service’s current connectivity status at all times. You can also view a list of recent status updates from Apple along with the reported problem for that timeframe.

This is a handy page for troubleshooting problems with iCloud. If you feel like you’re experiencing a problem with a certain aspect of iCloud, visit Apple’s status page to see if the issue is widespread.
