We're talking about Apple sending me an annoying email reminding me that I logged into iCloud on my own computer. This is not a helpful security measure. It is an annoyance that they can easily fix. Users pay for Apple's stuff. Apple should give them the courtesy of turning on or off annoying emails rather than forcing them. It is unnecessary that this is even an issue. What's worse is your claim that we shouldn't be annoyed by it. People receive so many emails, so no one wants to just sort through even more pointless emails.

Okay, thanks. I read that. My iCloud alert emails appear to come from "noreply@apple.com" rather than "noreply@insideicloud.icloud.com." Am I missing something? I am concerned other important emails may come from "noreply@apple.com." Is this true? If so, then I have the following concern. If I set a filter to direct all emails from "noreply@apple.com" to the trash, I would not want the other important emails to be trashed as well. Thoughts?

regardless of how old the original post is, today I decided to look online for help in turning these emails off. I don't have nude photos of myself on my icloud, but solid point people, for those of you. I get annoyed by the constant reminders. I get into my icloud daily. I delete erroneous emails from apple daily. It ***** that I can't turn that off. I don't get reminders from Yahoo every time I look at news. DropBox doesn't send me an email reminder every time I log in. NetFlix doesn't tell me every time I watch a movie. It's stupid. sorry, that's how I feel.

I agree that this is annoying. I use iCloud on a PC at work and with private browsing or incognito enabled I often have to log back in. It would be far more intelligent if:


  • It recognized the computer or IP address that you were logging in from and only sent the message when it didn't recognize the device, (this is enabled in other apple security).
  • It presented a notification on iOS/OSX devices rather than an email.
  • I'm happy to make a rule, but as expressed earlier I'm concerned to catch other important email with the rule.


Gail should be dropped a level for adding completely irrelevant and unsupportive replies to this thread.


Thank you for bringing this up.
