Why is Syncing always so slow?

Why is Syncing always so slow, recently?


I have 10 images that I need to show up on my iMac, from my iPhone - and it's been stuck for the last 30 minutes!


This has been the case for the last few weeks, that iCloud syncing is so painfully sluggish. It never used to be this slow and was more or less instant in uploading images / syncing.


Anyone got any ideas on how to resolve this ongoing issue?

Many thanks in advance.

iMac 27″, macOS 12.6

Hey Abstractman23,


There is an article we can share on syncing between devices, but the syncing speed is going to depend on several things. How you are syncing, how large is the data you are syncing, and the Wi-Fi speed if that's how you are syncing.


Take a look at these links, and if you still have questions, let us know more about how you are syncing.



Take care!
