    Can't select and copy text in Messages app

    Prior to upgrading to iCloud Messages, I could select specific parts of text messages in Messages on my Mac, and copy them. Now, I can only select and copy the entire message. This is very inconvenient. I have 2-factor authentication set up for many of my online accounts, so I often receive...

    Need to change iCloud Email address

    I'm pretty sure it's not possible to change your main iCloud email address since it's @icloud.com so my only option is to create a new iCloud account I guess? Do I need to buy all apps again or can I move my purchases over? Anyone has gone through this and can share their experiences?

    I have had the 5GB free storage forever. I have an iPhone X, Macbook Pro, and an iMac. I only have ever used the icloud for what I thought was being used to backup and hold my contact list.

    Why can't I force a backup of iMessage to iCloud?

    Why is there no way to force a backup of iMessages to iCloud? I can click "backup now" to back up the rest of my phone, why can't I do the same for iMessage? It would be very helpful since this feature seems to have stalled from the outset and is no longer uploading any of my conversations to...

    HomeCloud: a vision for an Apple-branded NAS

    Between the iPhone, the Mac or the iPad, Apple has some killer products. However, there is another one that could - in my opinion - rule them all and create new opportunities for the soon-to-be Trillion-Dollar company. One that would complement all those iDevices in a personal and safe way. More...

    Resolved iCloud Reminders lists disappeared

    This is very weird. I have (had) maybe 5 or 6 different Reminders lists going. A couple shared with my wife, one shared with a collegue, and a couple that were private. All synced via iCloud between several Macs and an iPhone. Today I found that with the exception of the default "general...

    Is the sync button for iCloud Messages doing anything?

    Hi, I have 3 devices (iPhone, iPad and a 2017 MacBook) where iMessages in iCloud is working perfectly (sync/delete across all devices). I recently started to use my old MacBook Pro as a media center / NAS / spare machine. I decided to log in into iCloud with that old machine because well, it's...

    11.4 iMessage in iCloud not working.

    I'm totally confused by this new feature of imessage being stored in icloud. I've enabled everything. It said "uploading to icloud" for a little bit and then seemed to finish. When I go to icloud settings and "manage icloud storage" it shows over 1 gig of imessages that should be uploaded. But...

    How to migrate my messages from a none-iCloud to an iCloud Apple ID?

    I have had two Apple IDs for ages, one for the iTunes Store and one for iCloud. The one for the iTunes Store uses an email address that wasn't provided by Apple, especially since there was no iCloud when I first started using iTunes. Unfortunately, I've been using this Apple ID also for the...
