I ran IOS 11.3 update. “Messages in ICloud is currently disabled - REPAIR ACCOUNT”. Tapping REPAIR ACCOUNT fails. How do I correct this issue? Messages is not in the list of apps using iCloud.
iPhone 6, iOS 11.3
As per 91101's post of Apr 4, 2018 2:53 PM, I held down the power and volume-down buttons simultaneously until I got the "slide to power off" prompt, powered off then back on and it was gone! (iPhone 5s. Still have to update my iPhone 7 & iPad Air; was holding off due to this issue.)
Now, as for the nature of this beast, it seems obvious that iOS 11.3 has some "Messages in iCloud" code in it. Furthermore, I speculate that this issue is perhaps an unintended dead give-away that Apple is seeding up the Messages in iCloud "space." Moreover, I speculate that users who are already using Messages on multiple devices with the same Apple ID and are already iCloud-syncing other stuff e.g. Notes, Photos, Contacts, Calendars et c., are the most likely to experience this effect. Ironically, I take this effect as an indication that Messages in iCloud is going to come out burning and turning and working swell when it is finally released. 😎
Is this supposed to be a fix for all iPhones? I have a 6s and this didn't work for me, all that happened was that the volume went up and down.
I am having the same issue. Restarting does not seem to help.
Thank you! Worked for me.
Thanks. Wondering what’re the chances of contnued recurring problems?
This did not help. It just asked me to power down my phone. Any other ideas?
Which volume button 🤔
volume down button
- not +

Older generation iPhones power button is on the top same process as this hope this helps out more people
I have iPhone 6s Plus so it’s op the sides as shown in this pic I uploaded
I can’t turn it off....it just says on and it’s not “highlighted” to turn it off....any suggestions ?
Forgot to say this all must be done from the locked screen otherwise it will not work
thanks for the help! turning of two factor authentication worked! What crap from Apple-
How to do it
I’ve tried this method numerous times and it doesn’t work....I just wanted to let you know it’s not working for everybody ! : /
