ICloud won't stop upgrading

after an iOS update to 8.1.2 on my iPad mini and iphone 4s iCloud drive won't stop upgrading. I have tried everything on the support forums and what Apple suggested to do. icloud won't accept my password on my devices but will on pc and it will work on iTunes, face time and App Store. This has been going on for approx two weeks and is getting rather frustrating. Has any one else had the same problem and if so have you been able to rectify it???

Try some basic troubleshooting:
(A) Try reset iPad
Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
(B) Try reset all settings
Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings
(C) Setup as new (data will be lost if you do not have backup)
Settings>General>Reset>Erase all content and settings

Sign in to iCloud won't stop popping up

FFor some reason, my 'sign in to iCloud' won't stop popping up on my iPad long enough for me to do anything. I've rebooted several times and am VERY frustrated with apple right now.

settings - icloud - you can sign in from here.

My ical won't stop upgrading, I can't shut down my macbook

when I click ical, it just started to upgrade by itself and it wont stop upgrading, and I cant quit the app neither shut down the macbook.

Jen,
First of all from the  Menu select "Force Quit..." and choose iCal.
Then try removing the com.apple.iCal.plist file from your Macintosh HD/Users/yourusername/Library/Preferences Folder. To find the Preferences folder, use Finder>Go Menu>Depress the "Option" key>Library. Drag the .plist file to your desktop, and log out/in or restart and check iCal for functionality.

ICal won't stop upgrading

I recently purchased an ipad and wanted to sync my ical on my macbook pro. After turning on icloud on my macbook my ical has the message "upgrading ical calendars". No matter what I do I can't get the popup to go away and I can't use ical. I can't force quit ical because it will just restart itself. I manually restarted my macbook and ical still has the message "upgrading ical calendars". This has been going on for hours. Please please help!!! I manage my whole life through ical!

I had the same issue with my brand new Iphone and my Macbook Pro ICal. In short, after hours on the phone and at the Genius Bar, my calendar is back on the computer (thanks to a lucky back up I had), partially on the Cloud (Choosing to ignore all my Blue dates while copying three other colors) and nowhere to be found on the phone.
I've tried turning off all cloud computing and syncing through ITunes. It says it's syncing, but it does not.
I've tried turning all Cloud computing on and letting it sync that way. Nothing has changed.
I wish I could tell you how we finally got the "upgrading" message to stop, but I don't recall what folder the Phone Support took me into or what file we ultimately had to trash. I do recall it was going to erase whatever was left in my calendar.
In short, I've learned that IOS is not interested in interacting with OSX Lion. And beware the OSX Mavericks upgrade, because that disables most of the few remaining conveniences that do exist between the two.
At this point, I have one more week to either keep or return the IPhone and if I don't get this thing
solved by Monday.... It's back to Android for me. Hard to believe my HTC Evo did a better job or relating to my Macbook Pro than Apple's own phone.

Try backing up and restoring from backup

Why won't iCloud Drive stop "Upgrading" on my iPod Touch 5? It has never finished...in months. This is how it has stayed since trying to upgrade.

ICloud won't setup properly on my iPhone 6, iPad Mini or iMac

Hi everyone,
I've had an iMac and iPad for a while now and wasn't keen on setting up iCloud but this changed with my first iPhone which I got a few days ago.
I opted to activate iCloud during the setup process thinking it'd be just as easy to do as everything else was.
FYI: right now all my devices have their latest iOS/OSX versions...
iPhone 6 - iOS 8.1.2 (12B440):
- Everything seemed fine until I looked at Settings > iCloud
- I'm continually asked to log in. Even after logging in successfully, the login prompt will show up again later (and repeatedly)
- iCloud Drive is "upgrading" and won't stop. It has been like this for at least 2 days now and Apple's servers have been fine when I've checked
- I'm unable to log out/remove/delete/change the iCloud account that's on my phone. The "Sign Out" button is greyed out and cannot be selected
- I've tried turning flight mode on/off (didn't work)
- Restarting the phone (nope)
- Multiple soft resets (nudda)
- A hard reset is a last resort if possible
iPad Mini - iOS 8.1.2 (12B440):
- I'm continually asked to log in like with my phone
- iCloud Drive isn't shown like it is on my phone
iMac (late 2009) - OSX Yosemite 10.10.1:
- Error: "You can't sign in at this time. Try signing in again"
iCloud.com:
- Error: "Set up iCloud on a device to use iCloud.com. Your Apple ID must be used to set up iCloud on an iOS or OS X device before you can use iCloud.com"
My Apple ID works in iTunes, the App Store, and probably everything else except iCloud.
Also, it's not possible for me to visit an official Apple store or service centre as they're literally hundreds of miles away from where I live.
Anyway, I have no idea what to do and would really appreciate any help. Thanks

Thanks for replying. I think it's just one problem affecting everything else. To me, it seems like the setup and/or upgrade process for iCloud is stuck and I'm unable to activate it anywhere else (iPad, iMac, iCloud.com, etc.)
I know the Apple ID I used. I only have one and used that when setting up my iPhone...
My Apple ID works in iTunes, the App Store, and probably everything else except iCloud.
The "Sign Out" button is greyed out and cannot be selected
So, signing out isn't possible from what I can tell.
So, I dunno

Ios 8 photos app won't stop syncing

Recently upgraded to an iPhone 6 and iOS 8. When I open the Photos app, it always has a Syncing..... indicator at the bottom and won't stop. I have tried disabling Photo Stream and iCloud photo albums and doing a hard restart. I also deleted out many old photos that appear to have been corrupted during the upgrade.
How can I fix this?
Thank you.

Still not fixed after upgrading to 8.1.
Also, I tried enabling iCloud Photo (Beta) and got an interesting message: Syncing would begin once the restore from backout was complete. This is interesting because I do not use iCloud for backup and the settings are turned off.
Help?!?

Text won't stop deleting, delete key appears to get "stuck"

Sorry if this is in the wrong topic, I have never used the support forums for any of the multitude of problems I have had with my Mac, but this one is severe and odd enough that I couldn't even find anyone else discussing it (although I'm sure someone is, but I tried many search key combinations on Google and only found unrelated things), so I decided to at least get it documented.
I have had an issue that has happened at least 3 times I can remember (I am fairly certain it has happened more, closer to 7-8, those are just the times I am 100% confident about), although very spaced apart and infrequent, where my delete/backspace key seems to get "stuck". However, at least one time I can verify that I never even hit the key. Whatever text I currently have open immediately starts deleting at lightspeed, and I can do nothing to stop it. None of the other keys on my keyboard work, and though my mouse works, if I click somewhere else, it starts deleting the text there. When I force it to go to another window where there isn't an open text box, I get the general Mac error sound, and it repeats non-stop, and faster than I've ever heard it. I have to do a hard shut-down, although once it led to a kernal panic. When I have stopped whatever is happening before it panics though, when I restart, I don't receive any kind of error message, nor the message about OS X not having been shut down properly.
Every single time it has happened when I was typing something that couldn't be saved, like a message on a forum, a private message on a site or an IM chat window. Sometimes I lost a half hour's worth of work or more.
The first time it happened, I honestly thought someone had managed to hack into my computer, but another time I was using a physical modem and Airport was turned off, and when I ripped out the cord, it didn't stop.
I have a MacBook Pro from 2007, running the most recent version of Tiger. I haven't had the money to upgrade. All security updates are up-to-date, with one exception: I have not upgraded to the most recent version of iTunes.
Honestly, I currently am having and have been having a bunch of other severe issues with my Mac, so troubleshooting will be quite difficult as it's not at all impossible it's a result of one of my other problems. I also currently am dealing with some health problems that make me unable to try to find the root of the problem, specifically I have a problem with my hand and wrist that makes typing very difficult.
If someone does recognize this issue and already knows why it might be happening, I'd appreciate the help. I'd also appreciate anyone letting me know how I can prevent it OR what to do when it begins and how to stop it. But I probably will be unable to go through a typical troubleshooting rundown.
As I said, I just wanted this documented, and I also would like to know if anyone else has had this problem. I have never experienced an issue like this with any of my past computers, including Macs and PCs. I do know however that the key is NOT physically getting stuck - as in getting lodged down and continuing to be pressed. There is at least 1 time I can verify I never even hit the key (I wasn't typing anything at the time). I am fairly sure the problem is entirely unrelated to the actual delete key itself.
I'll describe the symptoms one more time:
At a random time, with no discernible warning, text contained in whatever text box I have open begins deleting itself. Several paragraphs disappear in a matter of seconds.
Pressing escape or any other key on the keyboard does nothing. If I click to another area in the text, it will immediately begin deleting wherever I have placed the cursor. If I go to another window with text that can be edited, it begins deleting there. It does not delete in more than one place simultaneously.
If I bring another window without any kind of "deletable" text to the front, one of the general Mac error sounds (I'm not sure which one it is) starts happening and repeats without stopping at a rate that could induce a seizure. To stop it all, the only thing I have found can be done is a hard shut-down. Another time it continued to end in a kernal panic. I wish I had the details of the error, but it was so long ago and I have no idea which panic is the right one in the logs.
I have no way of knowing what programs were running at the time, as obviously that's not something I'm able to pay attention to when it happens, and it has happened so randomly and infrequently it's nothing I've been able to document. Since I have to restart to make it stop, I've then lost that info and I have no time to try to write it down or something beforehand.
I have not had any similar issues that I know of (for instance, for the "g" key keeps repeating and won't stop typing "g's") and I've never experienced this on any past computer.
Thanks for anyone who can help!
If you aren't able to offer advice but have had this issue yourself, PLEASE let me know. I can't seem to find anyone who has experienced this particular problem.

"Cleaning the keyboard is the first step in troubleshooting sticky/stuck keys."
Okay, I guess I misunderstood, although I am still confused. You're saying that since the other user did an extensive clean of their keyboard and this did not solve the problem, it is "most likely" a hardware problem, correct? Wouldn't a thorough cleaning without any results show that it's probably not physically related to the keyboard?
"The "delete" key may be defective or the cover you are using somehow is making the key stick. If you have ruled out the latter and everything else, your only other alternative is to take the MBP to your local Apple Store or AASP. The staff will check out your keyboard (free) to confirm if you are having a hardware problem. If you have AppleCare or ProCare, the repairs will be free. If not.................."
Well, I had just said in my most recent post that it has now happened with other keys, and in my initial post that it happened at times when my hands were nowhere near the keyboard. It is not a defective delete key and the cover is not making the keys stick - it doesn't adhere to them and does not have any sticky substance on it of any kind. I am an experienced computer user, and I know my computer very well. While I am not a psychic that can always know what is causing a problem, I am able to discern with much accuracy what is NOT causing it.
Also, I have significant health issues so getting to an Apple store would be a huge challenge for me. And although I have AppleCare any repairs won't be free. Due to some small physical damage my laptop obtained a few years ago, I have been completely refused almost all service that I paid over $300 for, even though the damage is completely superficial. After fighting this, I was told they WOULD repair my computer, however, they would also repair the physical damage despite my insisting NOT to; I had no choice in the matter and the cost would be a minimum of $1,500 (I also would not be informed the exact price until after and my credit card would be charged without my knowledge - I had to give them my credit card number and sign away their right to make any charges and when I requested being contacted before they charged me for the repairs I didn't want done, I was told they did not do that). My family is struggling to pay for my $5 medications.
When my logic board died (that same issue that affected thousands of computer users), I had to print out Apple's report from their site, which stated that they would replace and repair them free of charge to ANY Mac owner with a computer that met certain qualifications (which mine did). When it happened, completely out of nowhere, I knew immediately that was the problem, yet still had to go through the insulting and idiotic "Is your computer plugged in?" list of things and a customer WITH AppleCare was being refused a service they'd offered to people WITHOUT AppleCare, for a known manufacturing defect that has occurred widely in nearly every brand of computer made.

HT4858 Photostream/iCloud won't sync with PC.

Photostream/iCloud won't sync with PC. Everything is turned on, works for iPhone and iPad just not PC. Do not want to wipe phone to fix what should be a simple (and paid for) thing. Used to work fine but hasn't in a couple of months, even though no settings were changed. Please help

I have the same issue. My photos stopped on Nov.9th.
I just deleted and reinstalled version 3.1 and it took 90 pictures from my Photostream and transfered them to my PC
Thing is that I have 318 pics in my Photostream. The synching works fine between my iPhone 5S, iPad2, iPhone 3G and iPhone 5.
My wife is getting a iPad Air for Xmas so no idea of how it will work then but I assume it will be no problem.
I have Windows 7 and so does my mom on her laptop and PC which I also connected so I don't have to send her pics but she can just check. I had to update both machines to 3.1 and they only grabbed 85 pictures.
This is quite annoying when you live 500 kilometers apart and all worked fine until the latest updates.
Please Apple fix this asap as it's a lifeline for families all over the world

ICloud won't run on my Dell PC

iCloud won't run on my Dell Studio PC (Vista). Do I have to upgrade to Windows 7?

It seems that Win 7 or 8 are prerequisite. See http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1455?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US

Numbers updated in iCloud won't open on mac

I can't open numbers files I have worked on in iCloud without upgrading. If I ugrade, will the upgrade go to all 3 of my devices?

I'm still having problems. Numbers spreadsheets that I work on in iCloud won't open on my macs. I get "You need a newer version of numbers to open this spreadsheet." When I try to buy the new version I get "mac osX version 10.9 or later required". I am on 10.75.
iCloud automatically upgraded me to the beta version, and now I can't work on my spreadsheets in iCloud without buying apps and updates I do not want or need. If I open a spreadsheet in iCloud it is no longer useable for me.
Trying to muddle through this mess so I can get back to work!

My cooling fan won't stop kicking in on Mac Pro

Suddenly in the last week or so my cooling fan started kicking in while over the past 2+ years it has only run once or twice - now it won't stop!
I thought that it may have been due to an increase in RAM from 7G to 24G (3, 8G matched sticks) but after un-installing the 24G it was still running frequently, though not as much.
I have performed (in order) both a PRAM and SMC reset. I have also repaired all discs, reset permissions and dumped render files (I primarily use my Mac for video editing in FCP X).
I am fearing now that this may in fact be due to recent updates to Lion (10.7.3) or FCP X (10.0.3)
In an attempt to get FCP X to run better (there are many bugs in the latest update as evidenced by numerous posts in that discussion area) I also contacted NVIDIA for updates to my graphics card and was told by them that it is not compatible with Lion. I now have a Radeon card on order from the Apple store.
Any other advice?? This fan is not only an annoyance for me but as I also record voice-overs for my clients I simply cannot have it running all the time.

> I am fearing now that this may in fact be due to recent updates to Lion (10.7.3) or FCP X (10.0.3)
Only if the RAM is "defective" or "boarderline" would a new OS trigger an issue. But then someone else jumped to same conclusion when they upgraded to Lion recently and had been running Snow Leopard for awhile.
Every new OS brings some changes and some RAM will fail and fall to the wayside but the only way to know is trial and error; to get the vendor to replace and test.
Sometimes the RAM has been loosely seated. Sometimes the OS seems to be potential culprit (doesn't happen with clean install).
A USB or Firewire cable can be enough, too, even if just plugged and not attached to a powered on device.
You can even try two 8GB DIMMs and leave one out and see if process of elimination is of any value, or even boot wtih just a single DIMM. You don't need to have two or more.
But I would not mix 8GB with others, sounds like you had 3 x 2GB + 1GB, or 3 x 1GB + 4GB which would look and sound to be more iffy than your new set.
Btw, where did you get new set?
