You’re sending out info. on the 27th regarding it shutting down on the 26th? that doesn’t make sense. Must not be real humans here, anyway, I have the same problem I don’t know how to access it because they didn’t send it to the correct email. I’ve never use the iCloud email but they elected. to send it to that email and I didn’t get it in time so what do I do now? ?
