How to access iCloud in macOS Catalina
The old iCloud icon in the System Preferences is now gone in macOS Catalina. But you still use System Preferences to access your iCloud account–but via your Apple ID instead.
In order to access your iCloud credentials on macOS Catalina, follow the steps below:
- Click on > System Preferences
- Choose Apple ID (the iCloud icon is no longer available in macOS Catalina)
- Select Overview on the left panel
- Click on ‘Sign Out’ at the bottom to log out of your Apple ID and iCloud
- Choose ‘Keep a copy’ in order to create a local copy of the data
