Hello,

I get this error message as soon as I started the app.

• I've installed and started the container.
• I've ran the command sync-icloud.sh --Initialise in console
• It asked me the 2 code from 2-factors auth.

I already tried to stop/start the container but I face the same problem. The second time it didn't ask me to authenticate so the app must be correctly authenticated.

Something strange I noticed the 2 times is that the time for the next synchronisation(13:52:05) is BEFORE the time of the current sync ended (13:52:07). It has no sense or I misunderstood something. Anyway it's not related to the error message I believe.

Getting the same error.

Do you have Advanced Data Protection (ADP) enabled? It must be disabled for this utility to be able to download photos from icloud.com.

Something strange I noticed the 2 times is that the time for the next synchronisation(13:52:05) is BEFORE the time of the current sync ended (13:52:07)

No, it's definitely after, if the time is 13:52:07 and the next sync is at 13:52:05, then you've got to wait around 24hours for the next sync to take place.
