Several affected users took to X to report about the issue. A user named Steve Guttbinder pointed out, “Never have I seen Apple’s cloud services down for this long and with a straight up ‘outage’ (vs. ‘issues’) no less. Over 2.5 hours and counting.” As mentioned, all of the issues have been resolved and services have resumed since early morning.
