    Airpods in iCloud.com ?

    Hi everyone, I finally got a pair of 2nd Gen Airpods. I was sceptical but really like them, I can see why they are so popular. The sound reminds me so much of the Grado sound, so that's good! :) I used to have a pair of powerbeats 3 and they appear in the icloud.com dashboard. The AirPods...

    Just installed Mojave on an older system that had been running El Capitan. So many problems now: 1) Every time I restart the computer it goes through the Mojave "Setting Up Your Mac" screens that normally only appear right after an install and therefore a lot of changes I've made get reset. 2)...

    How is it the desktop iCloud website is such a slow, clunky mess still in 2020?

    Every time I need to head to iCloud.com on any of my Macs, it is by far the slowly loading, poorly performing website I ever have to visit. Sometimes it just stalls out on loading the landing screen and I have to refresh the page. It causes the fans on my 2017 15" MBP to spin up just sitting on...

    I want to use Apple Pay, but it requires iCloud. Since I'm wary of iCloud (Apple holds all the encryption keys, after all), I want to know that if I enable iCloud to set up Apple Pay, do I have time to first configure iCloud before it starts copying everything up to Apple's or their third-party...

    Hi there, As you probably all know, iCloud has an option to store some of your folders in iCloud. However, when it does this, it will generally delete (mostly older) files from your Mac, and keep them only in iCloud. I have 2TB available in iCloud which means it would be good to back-up my Mac...
