syncing with icloud paused

I got a "syncing with icloud paused" in the finder.

While I am on WIFI, Safari and the Appstore say "No internet connection".

Chrome pauses for a second and shows "No internet connection", then it loads all kind of pages, so there actually must be an internet connection.

I very much depend on the icloud sync.

It drives me nuts, when it doesen´t work.

What to do, clean ventura install?

Would love a simpler solution :-)

Thanks for reaching out stephan riess,


It sounds like you're having some trouble with your apps that use internet. We can help.


From what you described, it sounds like you might have an unstable network connection, or a network configuration issue. If multiple services are reporting no internet connection, then working, then reporting no connection again you might want to check if your internet service provider is having an outage or if they can confirm an issue with your connection first.


If that isn't the issue, try connecting using a different network and see if the behavior continues. If it stops, it might indicate that the issue is with how your network is configured.


Some resources that maybe helpful include:





Hope that helps.


Take care.
