You have created too many accounts. There's no way to get around this.

    That means you won't be able to create a new iCloud account on your phone (and you can't delete an existing account to do so).  Your only options are to either re-use one of the accounts previously created, or create a new account to use on a different iOS device or Mac (running OS X Lion or Mountain Lion), if you have one.

  • I changed my AppleID/Password and now am locked out of iCloud. iCloud says maximum number of free accounts have been activated. tried Settings, Mail etc but iCloud does not appear. I was going to delete it and start again.

    Had to change Apple ID/Password recently now cannot access iCloud. In settings when tapping iC, log in screen appears with old ID and request for (old) password.
    In Settings  Mail, Contacts etc iCloud does not appear. I was going to delete account.
    Trying new ID/Password message appears "maximum no. of free accounts have been activated".
    Using old ID/Password message apperas "you can,t sign in because account was disabled for security reasons ......reset password at iforgot.apple.com which i did.
    Can anybody help please??

    Hi,
    I tried to log in to iCloud but a message appears telling me I "can't sign in because my account was disabled for security reasons....reset password at iforgot.apple.com". I don't know why this happened.
    I reset both my Apple ID and password.
    When I tap Settings iCloud is listed on the left side between General and Mail, Contacts etc.
    Tapping iCloud brings up a log in screen for iCloud which shows my old Apple ID and requests the password. If I put the password in I get the message as above.
    If I use the new Apple ID/Password I get the message "the maximum number of free accounts have been activated....
    In settings there is no option to "Delete Account"
    Any suggestions??

  • I cannot sign in to my icloud i reached the maximum number of free accounts for my phone. how will i log in now? it is an i phone 5 and was used for work before and now i want to use it for personal use

    I cannot sign in to my icloud. I have reached the maximum number of free accounts on my phone.
    I am not sure what to do next.. i need to set up an icloud but i cant now.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Unfortunately once all the 3 iCloud accounts have been created on your mobile device, you cannot create any more regardless of what you do. You will need to re-use one of the accounts that you have already created or create your new account on another device or computer.
    You should however be able to add existing accounts to your device, are you sure you aren't trying to create on rather than simply use an existing one.

    You can't delete an account, you can only stop using it.  If you're getting that error message you won't be able to create a new account on your device.  Your only options are to re-use one of the accounts previously created, or create a new account on a different iOS device or Mac (running OS X Lion or higher), if you have one.

  • Why am i having this problem on icloud "the maximum number of free account have been activated on this ipad"

    Why am i having this problem on icloud "the maximum number of free account have been activated on this ipad"

    Judging from other posts it looks like there is a maximum of 3 accounts that can be created on a device - you could either re-use one of the accounts that you've already created or create a new one on a different device or computer

  • ICloud the maximum number of free accounts have been activated on this iPhone, how to fix this?

    i have problem here on iCloud using my iPhone when i log in it says "the maximum number of free accounts have been activated on this iPhone" how to fix this guys? please reponse

    You would have to contact Apple and see if they would grant an exception and allow you to create another one.  There's nothing you can do on your phone (that I know of) to correct this.

  • Icloud: The maximum number of free accounts have been activated on this iPhone.

    HI, I just bought a used (second hand) iphone 3gs recently.  I have activated my apple id it's working for app-store well, but when i try to use it for icloud it gives me the error that
    "The maximum number of free accounts have been activated on this iPhone"
    What I must do to sign in to icloud please help me.
    I suppose the previous owner has already activate an icloud account from this iphone and the IMEI number of the phone is registered to icloud. Is there a way to erase it, or just make a second account from this iphone?

    You need to sign in to your iCloud on another device before you can use iCloud on your iPhone 3GS.

  • Why do i get the message that says i have used the maximum number of free accounts on my iphone 4  and how do l fix this

  • HT204053 My iPhone 4 will not allow me to sign into iCloud it says there are too many accounts on this device how can I resolve it and sign in?

    Please help me sign into icloud

    If the message says that the maximum number of free iCloud accounts has already been created, you won't be able to create a new iCloud account on that phone.  You can sign into an existing iCloud account, but not create a new one.  Your only options are to either re-use one of the accounts previously created or create a new account to use on a different iOS device (running iOS 5 or higher) or Mac (running OS X Lion or higher), if you have one.

  • I cannot sign in to my icloud with my old account it is saying maximum number of free accounts

    i am not tring to recreate an icloud. my iphone had to be reset by ntelos and clear all my data off my phone. so now when i try to sign in to my icloud it will not let me sign in with my account that i used before my phone was reset. it is saying it has the maximum number of icloud accounts. but im not trying to make a new one . in am simply tring to sign in with the one i already have.

    You can't delete an account, you can only stop using it.  If you're getting that error message you won't be able to create a new account on your device.  Your only options are to re-use one of the accounts previously created, or create a new account on a different iOS device or Mac (running OS X Lion or higher), if you have one.

  • "icloud: The maximum number of free accounts have been activated on this iPhone" so I'm going to use my sister's iPhone to activate it

    According to what I read here, the iPhone I have has been activated 3 times by different iCloud accounts. My sister has a new iPhone, and I'm thinking about activating my iCloud account on her phone first, then I'll log in on mine. The thing is there is no log out button for iCloud accounts. It says "Delete". We are not sure if she is going to lose all the data she has on her account. What is she going to lose exactly if she deletes it? Will she be able to restore all her data?

    Your phone has been used to create three iCloud accounts - the maximum permitted: this is nothing to do with Activation. As you say, you will need to create a new account using another iOS device.
    On an iOS device, Settings>iCloud, the 'Delete account' button is badly labelled. It signs the phone out from iCloud; it does not delete the account from the server.
    When she signs out using this, all her synced data - contacts, calendars, etc - will disappear from her phone; but they will reappear when she eventually signs back in (give it time for the data to re-sync).

  • The maximum number of free accounts on this device have been activated on this iphone error message

    i've been trying to find ways to get pass this icloud message but can't. i bought my iphone 5 a few months ago. it is a used iphone i bought off ebay. it let's me sign into itunes but not icloud. i recently took it to the apple store in my city and even they were new to this message. but they said it should work after basically restoring my iphone. it didn't work. they were talking about selling me a new one for 260. I paid 250 for the iphone 5 i have now and i don't want a new one.... can anyone help?

    Each device can create a maximum of 3 iCloud accounts.  After that you can only re-use one of the accounts previously created or create a new account on a different device, if you have one.

  • ICloud - when I try to login it says " maximum number of free accounts given for this iPhone ". What should I do now?

    Can someone pls help me?

    Each device can only create a maximum of three iCloud accounts.  Once those have been create and you try to create another you get this message.  You cannot delete one of the previous accounts in order to create another one.  All you can do is either re-use one of the accounts previously created, or create a new account to use on another iOS device (running iOS 5 or higher) or Mac (running OS X 10.7.2 or higher) and sign into the account on your phone.
