    iCloud Cases of complete and unjustified account blocking

    Good morning! I want to try to use my iPad Pro more as a primary computer. This makes it necessary to use a cloud. For example, iCloud Drive. However, I have now read several times that the provider block accounts unannounced, immediately and irrevocably. If their “AI” believes it has found...

    iCloud Deleted iCloud primary email address… sort of.

    Is it still true that the original primary iCloud email address can’t be deleted? In iOS 18.1, I realized I can switch the primary email address of my Apple Account. I never liked my primary iCloud email address, so after switching to a 3rd party address, I removed the primary iCloud email...

    What's the difference between these iCloud settings?

    macOS has two sets of iCloud settings for apps in the Settings app: "Saved to iCloud" and "Apps syncing to iCloud Drive". Is there a difference between the two? iOS only has "Apps using iCloud". Is that both of those settings combined?

    iCloud iCloud Passwords for FireFox

    FireFox ADD-ONS lists an extension iCloud Passwords for install. I installed it and then realized it's not developed by Apple. It is on GitHub and open source. Should I be concerned and did I just give someone access to my Apple Keychain and Passwords? Seems like Apple would take issue with a...
