Apple Intelligence is now available on iPhone, iPad, and Mac!
I suddenly cannot send email via my iCloud email address...any suggestions??? Tried reboot...no dice. I CAN send mail on this address via my cell phone and I need the steps required to reset or troubleshoot my Mac settings. I've checked them and they look ok to me...but I must be missing something! Thanks all...!
