    iCloud iCloud questions: limits and moving to individual accounts

    I'm considering purchasing the $10/mo 2tb plan to share with a few family members. However, I want to think long term about this and have some questions: 1. Can you set storage limits per-person at all? I don't want one person to take up all the space and everyone else get screwed. (i.e. set...

    Problems using Twitter and Fenix on new iPad Air - iPadOS 15.7 (close enough?) [SOLVED]

    When I go to post a tweet in the Twitter app or Fenix, I can choose from a number of images to accompany the tweet. Most of these images pre-date my new iPad Air and were created on my old iPad. This suggests to me that these apps are accessing iCloud to find these old images. My problem is...

    I want to wipe clean my MacBook, but Erase Assistant keeps saying iCloud is syncing

    Hi all! As the title says, I want to wipe my MacBook. When I go to System Preferences to go to Erase Assistant and walk through the steps, Erase Assistant keeps saying iCloud is still syncing to iCloud. That's a bit peculiar, iCloud syncing to itself. It's been doing that since 0945. It is...
