The issue has been going on since approximately 10:13 a.m. Pacific Time. Apple says users may not be able to use these services during the outage, so features such as ‌iCloud‌ Backup and ‌iCloud‌ photo storage may not work at this time.

There’s no word on when these issues will be fixed, but we’ll update this article when everything is back up and running. Earlier today, services like the App Store, Apple Music, and iTunes Store also saw a glitch that has since been fixed.

Updating: The problem has also extended to ‌iCloud‌ storage, calendar, email, keychain and bookmarks.

Update 2: According to Apple’s system status page, all issues are now resolved and Apple’s service is back up and running.
