Apple has finally updated its iCloud System Status page to acknowledge downtime for various services in the past few hours, including Game Center, iTunes Store, Apple IDs management, and more.

For the past few hours Apple customers have been reporting issues with certain iCloud services, but the company was yet to reflect the outage on its System Status report.

Apple has now updated the web page with information regarding every affected service, such as Apple ID creation – “Users may be unable to create a new Apple ID,” Apple says.

Some users also reported the inability to sign into Game Center, the iTunes Store, while others couldn’t complete any purchases.

Perhaps more importantly, “Users may incorrectly receive an authentication error when attempting to use iCloud,” reads another status report.

Setting up a new iCloud account was has also been troublesome, Apple notes.
