<p>At around 1:24pm eastern, <em>AppleInsider</em> noticed the official Apple newsroom was inaccessible, displaying a message advising the page “cannot be found.” Shortly after, other areas of Apple’s online existence stopped working or were unavailable. </p>
<p>In further checks by <em>AppleInsider</em> staff, Apple’s developer site also became unavailable, and the official System Status page that usually displays issues with servers is also offline. Other services are also undergoing issues, including some outages of iCloud itself. </p>
<p>Apple Music was also affected by the outage, with attempts to play music not downloaded to a device displaying errors. One error advised that “A server with the specified hostname could not be found.” </p>

<p><span class="minor2 small gray"></span></div>
<p>In the time since the discovery of issues, some services are slowly being restored, with the newsroom and iCloud back up and running, followed by the System Status page and Apple Music. </p>
<p><em>AppleInsider</em> has contacted Apple to query about the server issues. </p>
