Waiting for ‘webcourier.push.apple.com’ message

Question:


While attempting to download photos from my iCloud to my computer/laptop I receive a message "waiting for web courier push.apple.com”. What does this mean and can someone resolve this asap?

I had this same problem. I just talked to an Apple Support agent and then their senior advisor and they pretty much just said that you need to download a few at a time in order for it to work and there's no way to fix it. On my computer, I wasn't able to download more than 30 at a time which seems ridiculous, especially since they list a limit of 1,000 photos being downloaded at once on iCloud. I have over 9k photos to download so it will take forever to get those downloaded. Perhaps the limit is intended to make it more difficult to keep your photos outside of iCloud.
