Why: Messages in iCloud is Currently Disabled (Repair Account)

Why: Messages in iCloud is Currently Disabled (Repair Account)

Are you noticing a message at the bottom of your iMessage screen about iCloud messages being disabled?

 

Messages in iCloud is currently disabled

Repair Account

 

If you click Repair Account in the message, nothing seems to happen…

 

The message seems to be appearing in the latest iOS update – 11.3. It appears to be a bug.

Fix the problem on my iPhone X by
-Turning off the iMessage option under Messages in Settings
-reboot your iPhone
-Message will disappeared!

DID NOT HAVE TO sign out of iCloud. Would be interesting to see if a reboot is even needed, but I don't have the issue anymore and cant test that fix...

Good luck

Before I noticed the warning that messages are disabled from the iCloud, I noted that on some of my devices that the message history for some of my contacts had disapeared. Then I saw the ‘message disabled from iCloud’ and wondered if the missing histories might be the reason for the warning. I’ve seen several solutions on how to get rid of the warning and here is the one I followed. While in messages, hold down the down volume button and immediately follow this by simultaneously holding down the power button. Allow the forced shutdown to occur and boot back up. After doing so, the warning disaappeared and, voila, the missing message histories for my contacts re-appeared. I then did the same thing with my other devices with the same results.

there is no way I'll be updating my phone again, i can't believe this problem - and there seems to be no help from apple - are they just hoping that one of their customers is going to come up with a solution - it's incredibly annoying and I just wish I hadn't bothered updating and that I hadn't bought an iphone

same problem here; reading the thread it seems like a problem that's not a problem---really. I'll wait for the fix. No problems noted in sending or receiving messages..

Same problem with my iPhone. I tried to go in settings > icloud to see what happened, all is like usual except that "Messages" disappeared from the list "apps using icloud".

I had the same problem, but it’s fixed when I signed out of iCloud and rebooted

But when I did it twice it came back!

So signed out again rebooted and it’s all fixed. So for me signing out of the cloud once and rebooted fixed the problem.

When I did have the message showing I was still able to send and receive messages.
