I keep getting an error that "iCloud encountered an error while trying to connect to the server". What's up?

I've been getting an error most of the day that says "iCloud encountered an error while trying to connect to the server" on my pc. Also, anything I update on either iPad or iPhone does not update on the other device. What's up?

Hello pongo19,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
For more information on this, take a look at:

Close iTunes and disconnect the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
Click the Windows Start button .
In the Start Search field type Services.
In the Programs section of the search results, Click "Services".
Select Apple Mobile Device and click Stop the service as shown below:
After the service has stopped, click Start the service.
After the Apple Mobile Device service has started again, open iTunes and connect the device.
Set the Apple Mobile Device Service Startup type to Automatic
Remove and reinstall iTunes and AMDS
Best of luck,
Mario
