If you’re having problems with Apple’s iCloud services, don’t worry — you’re not alone!
On its status page, Apple is currently showing yellow alerts for Back to My Mac, Find My iPhone, iCloud Account & Sign-In, iCloud Backup, Drive, Keychain, Mail, iMovie Theater, iWork, and Photos — meaning that services are either running slowly or are down. While not all users are experiences these problems, Apple acknowledges that many are.
The problems started at around 1.30am PST, and seem to be continuing.
Hopefully the company will sort out the problem ASAP. Despite recently making big strides to improve its cloud-based services, these kind of glitches do nothing to convince users that iCloud is of the standard most would expect from Apple.
