Hi GreenLemmy,


To stop iCloud syncing on your PC temporarily and restart it later when you have a stable connection and unlimited data, you can follow these steps:


1.Stop iCloud Syncing:

  • Open the iCloud for Windows application on your laptop.
  • Sign in with your Apple ID if you're not already signed in.
  • Once signed in, uncheck the checkboxes next to the iCloud features you want to stop syncing, such as iCloud Drive, Photos, Contacts, etc.
  • Click on the "Apply" button to apply the changes.
  • iCloud syncing will stop for the unchecked features. You can leave the ones you still want to sync checked.

2.Restart iCloud Syncing:

  • When you have a stable connection and unlimited data again and want to restart iCloud syncing, open the iCloud for Windows application again.
  • Sign in with your Apple ID if prompted.
  • Check the checkboxes next to the iCloud features you want to start syncing again.
  • Click on the "Apply" button to apply the changes.
  • iCloud syncing will restart for the checked features.


By following these steps, you can easily stop iCloud syncing on your PC temporarily and restart it later based on your network conditions and data availability.


Good luck!


Greetings
