iCloud Drive Greyed Out - Cannot turn on iCloud Drive - 20/12/2022 Hi everyone, I use Obsidian Markdown editor and have the 'vaults' within iCloud so I can access them anywhere on all devices. But, the iCloud is not working as it should. I've: updated to latest software. signed in and out of Apple ID signed out and in to University WiFi ensured VPN is deactivated ensured anti Virus is not causing issue Despite this, iCloud remains greyed out: How do I resolve this issue so I may switch iCloud Drive "ON". Many thanks, passoutpeach

setting up iCloud drive taking hours I'm trying to set up my iCloud drive on an mid 2012 iMac running OS X 10.11.6. The wheel has been spinning for hours. As per other users' suggestions I've deleted a folder called CloudDocs from the applications support. I've also run the following in a terminal: killall bird; rm -rf ~/Library/Application\ Support/CloudDocs; rm -rf ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.bird Logged out of iCloud, rebooted, updated software. Nothing is working. iCloud is working perfectly fine on my iPhone and Macbook.

The simple answer to this is that relaunch Finder by:

Clicking on Apple logo at top left<Force Quit<Select Finder<Relaunch
