iCloud Syncing is the Bane of my Existence – Mac Geek Gab 660
Ever have problems with iCloud syncing? Haha, of course you have. Dave Hamilton and John F. Braun, your two favorite geeks, have, too, so they help a few of you with your iCloud syncing problems and, in the process, dig into all the things they’ve learned about solving this problem over the years. But you know the rule: one must always learn at least four new things each and every episode, so there’s a lot more than this, folks. Download, listen, and enjoy!

Oy. Sorry for the garbled sentence with the extraneous ‘are’.
As a matter of fact I hardly have iCloud sync problems. Yes. Sometimes it takes a bit longer. But otherwise no. No iCloud problems. No iTunes problems. You know what? I think more and more that you’re really are barking up the wrong tree here. I think this is more a question of having mediocre network connectivity in your neck of the woods. In the EU I never hear about these kind of things.
