couldn't sync icloud data

Hi,

I am getting this message "Couldn't syn iCloud data To continue using iCloud to sync your end-to-end encrypted data, you'll need to delete current data stored in iCloud."

Is this going to delete all of my passwords and everything? I really do not want to loose this information. Please, help me

iPhone 12 Pro Max, iOS 18

Hey,


I have called the Apple help line and they said just proceed with deleting the icloud data as it says on the screen. After that all was fine, no data was lost and the apps which were not backing up before are now working. Hope this helps

I've been getting this, too, since the OS update (in late September or early October 2024). I went to this article: Change which apps sync and store data with iCloud - Apple Support. I screenshotted the “Some iCloud Data Isn’t Syncing” message on my screen to have in front of me the particular items that weren’t syncing. For me, it was passwords, health, and maps. From the article, I turned on/made sure iCloud Syncing was turned on for these apps on my iPhone and my MacBook (my MacBook was getting this error message). Hopefully, that will solve it. I’ll let you know.
