Here is the sentence from Apple Docs: "If iCloud is not configured, ask users if they want to configure it (and, preferably, transfer them to Launch Settings if they want to configure iCloud)."
How can I check if iCloud is configured or not and how to launch settings for iCloud?
Edit:
If you are targeting iOS6 or above you can use [[NSFileManager defaultManager] ubiquityIdentityToken];
. For usage example please refer @Dj S' answer :).
It is faster and easier than the original solution which was meant for people targeting iOS5 and above
Original Answer
As documented in iOS App programming guide - iCloud Storage. That can be checked by asking the ubiquity container URL to the file manager :)
As long as you supply a valid ubiquity container identifier below method should return YES
- (BOOL) isICloudAvailable
{
// Make sure a correct Ubiquity Container Identifier is passed
NSURL *ubiquityURL = [[NSFileManager defaultManager]
URLForUbiquityContainerIdentifier:@"ABCDEFGHI0.com.acme.MyApp"];
return ubiquityURL ? YES : NO;
}
However, I've found that URLForUbiquityContainerIdentifier:
might take several seconds the very first time within a session (I used it in iOS5 so things might be different now). I remember using something like this:
dispatch_queue_t backgroundQueue =
dispatch_get_global_queue(DISPATCH_QUEUE_PRIORITY_DEFAULT, 0);
dispatch_async(backgroundQueue,^{
BOOL isAvailable = [self isICloudAvailable]
/* change to the main queue if you want to do something with the UI. For example: */
dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(),^{
if (!isAvailable){
/* inform the user */
UIAlertView *alert = [[UIAlertView alloc] init...]
[alert show];
[alert release];
}
});
});
