How can I dismiss new iCloud Terms and Conditions pop ups on my MacBook Pro?

Actually the same happened to me, I got yesterday ( November 5th) a message asking me to accept the new iCloud Terms and Conditions, the intro is in English but the terms are in German, also asked me to put my iPhone unlock password to accept it. Looks kinda weird, I don't know if is real or scam. This happened just in my iPhone but not in my MacBook or iPad.

My wife and I both got the same request to read and agree to new iCloud T&C’s however they are in Spanish. Even if they were in English I think I would fall asleep before completing them. What’s it about?

Please read the post I uploaded after chatting with Apple support.

Additionally, please be aware that Apple stagger any updates and or agreements for terms and conditions so that servers are not overwhelmed.

You may have read that iPhone 16 is being released with an AI assisted iOS. iPhone iOS 15 phones are also receiving the iOS updates with AI slowly over the last month. Probably the reason your husband has not received a T&C update prompt. even though you are on a family account, updates are usually designated by serial numbers and not email or phone numbers.

Really seems like it is on going problem as earlier post is from 2022 and it hasn't been fixed yet!

Maybe this time they will do something as there are more people reporting the problem.

iCloud is a scam. They just want to pimp us all for revenue because eventually since they supply such small storage amounts, you have to pay them every month just to watch TV without the flag navigating you out of the channel you were watching.

Dukige,

Great simple fix, deserved an upvote!

But it should not be necessary. Apple should be able to direct any updates and associated T&Cs to received by any phone in the preferred language. The company manages it for most updates so why not iCloud T&Cs?

Still a bit of a mystery, but is does tell us a little more about how Apple distributes upgrades.

I copied Dukige and deleted Spanish from a list of languages that I never chose to select as active languages in my iPhone!

I also reset my iPhone region to Japan. It must have been auto reset to Australia when I was there in August and September and did upgrades.

The upgrade then came with an English forward explanation and the Terms and conditions were in Japanese. Makes some sense if the T&Cs were different for Japan, btw still does not seem logical that Spanish or other languages were the contract languages based on region settings. One would assume that T&Cs are the same all over the world for iCloud and if not why were they being delivered in any language other then the main selected one for each iPhone?

Like to hear a logical explanation from Apple.

Ob

The message then came up in English

I've had the Terms and Conditions displayed in Japanese for several days. Now, when I click on 'Continue' to view them, it scrolls for a while and then stops. I've just deleted all the languages apart from English but I still have the notification that I need to accept the new Terms and Conditions, even after restarting my phone.

You can try this if your using a iPhone or iPad

Go to Settings and tap your name.

Scroll down to the bottom and click "Sign Out."

Turn on the data that you want to keep a copy of on your device.

Click "Sign Out."

Tap "Sign Out" again.

Sign back in.

Same problem as OP, except on my iPhone 11 Pro. I click on Continue at the New iCloud Terms & Conditions page in Settings, get a spinning icon to the right of Continue button like it is about to do something, screen oddly slightly minimizes towards the background and goes gray, then "Cannot Complete Action" message appears with OK being the only option. I am updated to latest iOS, have Reset Network Settings, restarted iPhone, no avale. As a result cannot access my iCloud setting on the phone. Guess I'll try calling Apple but hesitate to go through what I assume will be some ridiculously involved troubleshooting only to not fix the issue, not to mention I am sure that they will have "never heard of this problem"...love that one.

I do not like iCloud and don't use it on my phone. I am signed out, all the icloud buttons are turned off and and icloud drive is turned off. When I upgraded to IOS 18 a couple of days ago, I started getting a pop-up notification in Settings asking me to agree to "New iCloud Terms & Conditions." I have declined to agree and would like to get rid of this message. How can I do that?

I am having the same problem. When I try to accept the terms and conditions, it says “Cannot continue at this time”. What does this mean? Why am I not able to complete the process. This is on my iPhone 13.

When I press continue on new iCloud Terms and Conditions, on my ipad, a pop up says "cannot complete action at this time."What am i supposed to do to accept the new terms and conditions?" I have internet working on my ipad so not sure what the problem is

Did you have you iPhone set to the Japanese language or English?

I have my iPad set to English and the “terms” request (demand) was in Norwegian ( live in Denmark) have responded yet as it all seems weird. Also weird the way it is done ….
