Having trouble using iCloud, iTunes, or pretty much any other Apple service right now?
It’s not just you. Multiple Apple services are currently down and there’s no word on when they’ll be coming back up.
Apple’s online services support page shows outages have broken out across many of its iCloud services, Apple TV and the App Store.
“Users are experiencing a problem with the service listed above,” the site reports. “We are investigating and will update the status as more information becomes available.”
The outages have been ongoing since a little after 12:30 PT. We’ve reached out to Apple to find out when it expects the issues to be resolved but have not yet received a comment.

Jeebus. Apple needs to fix its services infrastructure big time. This is embarrassing.
Yeah, because this happens “all the time”. Google must need to fix theirs too.
First time I ever noticed anything. iTunes popup on iOS saying purchase could not be completed (but not purchasing anything…). :/
Seems to have cleared up, at least on the east coast. At least it’s something to create an “article” about on a slow-news-day ;-)
It’s time for Apple to let Tim Cook GO. He spends more time on LBGT than running a business and is losing ground to Alphabet and Microsoft. It is rarely a week that can go by without so software or product problem. As the economy continues to stagnate more consumers will opt for the much less expensive product if they face the same compatibility issues.
Couldn’t agree more. We need a man like SJ back.
There are no men like SJ unfortunately
There are, they’re just running other companies. Like Tesla or Alphabet.
Ridiculous statement.
Let see what part is ridiculous? That chrome is the most popular computer. That Barons has J&J as the most respected company over Apple. That the last couple of updates Bricked new iPhones and iPad pro. That android phones increasing in market share as iPhones drop. Lets not mention that overtime you turn around there is another update and there are always problems which result in a patch.
