HT4436 How can I get an Icloud account when I have an iphone3?
I have an iPhone 3G and a Windows7 laptop. I use iTunes for all my music. How do I create an iCloud account??
I currently can't afford to upgrade my phone.
Thanks
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
The iPhone 3G can only be updated to iOS 4.2.1, and iCloud requires iOS 5 or later, so you can't use iCloud with the iPhone 3G

How can I create an iCloud account if I have iTunes on my PCs (both desktop & laptop) but have no other iOS device?

I am unable to delete my iCloud account from my device. This is because I recently changed my Apple ID email/ username which now means when I try to delete my iCloud account to log back in with my new Apple ID I am unable to as it requests my old Apple ID username and password which no longer exist. i am on IOS 8.1. Can someone help me find a solution to this?
Make sure you are signed into iMessage and FaceTime with your current ID. If they are signed into the old ID, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and Settings>FaceTime, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with your current ID.
Then temporarily recreate the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. (You should not have to verify the old email account so it doesn’t matter if you no longer have access to it.) Now go to Settings>iCloud, turn off Find My iPad and enter your current password when prompted (even though it prompts you for the password for your old ID). Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll (unless using iCloud Photo Library). When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Sign Out and choose Delete from My iPad when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign back in with your current iCloud ID and password (your data will download back to your device). -

How can I delete my Icloud account when I don't know the password and no longer have the email address associated with it?
You need your password to delete it and I need the email address to reset the password. I feel like I'm going in circles!!! Please help!!!Go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address (you shouldn't need to verify the old account). You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https//appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

Hi
I changed email addresses but iCloud sill has my previous address registered. It also is not recognising either my original password or my new password. How can I get my new email address into the iCloud system, and also lodge a new password with them?
I'm using an ipad and all else is ok but not icloud.Welcome to the Apple community Ross.
If you mean that Find My Phone is asking for a password to a different Apple ID to your current Apple ID and that ID is a previous version of your current ID, not an entirely different one.
This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details and some other circumstances.
The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID using your current password, you don’t need access to this address if it’s previously been used with your Apple ID, once you have saved these details enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone" and delete the account from your device. It may take a short while to remove the account.
You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, save it once again and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.

My family shares the same itunes account on all three iphones and my ipad. I am trying to back up my iphone data without having it merge with my husband and daughters iphone. How do I do this? I just tried to back up my device in itunes with a protected password and it will not back up. Can I create an icloud account for my phone and different icloud accounts for my husband and daughter and still keep our itunes account?
Thanks
DeniseYes, you can do that. Just create a new iCloud account for you:
1. "Settings > iCloud" (log out from your husbands account, if you are signed in and delete this account from your iPhone)
2. Create a new iCloud account on your iPhone with a free me.com email address:
"Setting > iCloud"
or
"Setting > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Add Account > iCloud"
3. After that you will have the opportunity to sync and backup your personal mail, contacts, calendars, reminders, notes etc. completely separated from your husbands account.
4. But make sure to keep your husbands account for iTunes and app purchases:
"Settings > iTunes & App Stores"
I hope that answers your question and will help you. -
My grandson couldnt get a icloud account I had to put him on mine , it stated that you this phone is no longer able to ge a free id. so I gave him mine we now share but when i brought something my credite card went on his phone. I was able to take it off but when he downloads game it comes on my phone is there a way i can get him a account or is there a way i can change mine and it doesnt effect anything i have down with this account
He can continue using your icloud, but he can still create his itunes account. As long as he is over 13 that is. On his phone - sign out of your Apple id in settings- itunes and app store. then follow instructions below and create his account. You will still share icloud (contacts, calendars and more) but itunes music, apps, credit card of yours will not be for him anymore, unless he decided to buy more icloud storage.

in the future I recommend you to get him off your icloud account as well, you don't realize it, but he can wipe your phone within seconds. -

HT4623 how can I get into my Ipad when I have forgotten my passcode
Someone in the family has changed the passcode to my Ipad - It could have been me - but no one remembers doing it. We are now locked out of the Ipad. How can I get back in!
Connect the iPad to the computer that you normally sync to and you should then be able to reset the iPad and re-sync your content to it (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212) - you may need to put the iPad into recovery mode : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808

I want to create a new email address/additional cloud account and move all my data to the new acccount. How can I do it?
Go to Settings>iCloud and turn all data that is syncing with iCloud (contacts, calendars, etc.) to Off. When prompted choose to keep the data on the iPhone. After everything is turned off, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account. Next, set up a new iCloud account using a different Apple ID and turn iCloud data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On. When prompted, choose Merge. This will upload the data to this new account.
This will not move your photo stream, however. If you have photos in photo stream that you haven't backed up anywhere else you will need to save these before deleting the account. If your computer is syncing with your iCloud account, your can photo stream photos directly to your computer. If not, open your photo stream album on your iPhone in the thumbnail view, tap Edit, tap all the photos to select them, tap the share arrow button, then tap Save to Camera Roll. Once in the camera roll you can import them to your computer. -
How can I verify my iCloud account when my email account was deleted?
Hello,
I would like to know how to verify my iCloud account after it being "not verified".Also, my previous email was deleted and it asks me to check my email in order to verify the iCloud account. I am worried that if I delete my iCloud account and create a new one, all my data will be wiped out and I will not be able to transfer important data among multiple devices.
Please find a solution for this problem,
Thank you!But I can't complete the verification because it asks me to check my email (which was deleted)
But I have an idea! Do you suppose I can reset my iPod touch to default>Have all my data on iTunes/folders>Set iPod touch as a new device> Create a new account with my fresh email>Connect to iTunes>Back up!
Reply if you think this would work so I can actually do it
Thank you
