Another problem argh, Icloud for me has not worked smoothly lately.

Monthly? As in, once a month? Once? Har har.

I don't think my iCloud has ever worked. I gave up trying to fix it.

Eddy Cue is responsible for iCloud....and this is the guy Tim Cook gave maps and Siri too. Hmm....

The transition of MobileMe accounts to iCloud accounts was, and continues to be, one of the worst nightmares for customers that I know of.
A million times worse than the Maps debacle.

Remember .mac? I like .mac. It was nice and the name mac being some thing that made you feel you were part of a mac experience. Then they changed it to mobile me. What a friggen joke. Now it's iCloud. Ok, I like that but what the hell? since steve has left things are not what they have been. Please. Get the secret black department of the US Government that is in in contact with the extra terrestrials and get steve reanimated to help us. My god people. What are you doing to this company?

I said it the last time you tried to make a story out of this trivia, but this new system is worse than useless.

When talking about a world-wide cloud service, using the term "some users" and a percentile of people affected gives you almost no relevant information at all. Tens of thousands of people could be without vital services and it would still show up as a small percentile of "some users." Whole countries, states, or provinces could be without service and it would still show up as a small percentage.

Useless.

What would actually be helpful, is something that tells you what the status of services are for *you* in *your* country or area. Anything else is just something to look at while you rage about the fact that your email is down.

Hyperbole much?  

Objectively, the transition from .Mac to MobileMe was far worse, so if the Maps "debacle" as you call it was a disaster, and the transition to iCloud was a "million times worse" then the transition from .Mac to MobileMe must have killed at least a few hundred people and decimated the economy the way you describe it.  

I don't really remember that happening though

Interesting... I'm constantly on iCloud and have noticed occasional outs but not enough to force me to question the service.

All the best.

My accounts with Apple have been messed up for ages. I forget the story behind it precisely (as this has been happening for years) but I had multiple accounts, at some point they got merged and nothing has ever worked properly since.
