ICloud Control Panel for Windows 7 not working

I installed iCloud on My pc running Windows 7 32 bit.
It installs fine, but when I go to sign in, it says "You can't sign in because of a server error."
Any ideas on how to fix such a problem?

Have you solved the problem?
I'm now struggling with it
Please post how you dealt with it.

  • ICloud control panel for Outlook not working

    The panel of iCloud tomsyncronise on outlook doesn't work. It not appear in control panel.
    Thank you

    I don't really know what you mean by 'tomsyncronise'. Are you saying that you can't check Outlook from the Control panel? Did you install Outlook 2007 or 2010? The Control panel does not support Outlook Express.
    or are you saying that the Outllok checkbox is missing from the Control panel?

  • ICloud Control Panel for Windows will not install on Win 7 64-bit

    I already installed iTunes 10.5 and I downloaded the iCloud Control Panel for Windows and when I tried installing it I got the following error message:
    I cannot find a a 64-bit of iCloud (if that is what I need). The 64-bit iTunes installed ok. What am I doing wrong?

    I don't know how to answer that question, Rob, or why I would be able to. Obviously people will have different configutrations. It really just points to the question I am asking. I can only assume Adobe hasn't tested it thoroighly enough and is not making any effort to find out why, which suggests to me they don't really care enough about their users to bother. This issue has been raised often enough and nothing has been done.

  • Problem with Office 2007 whenever I install the iCloud Control Panel for Windows

    Sadly I have a Win7 laptop as my work hack and am using Office 2007.  Outside of work I use iCloud to sync calenders between various iOS/OS X devices however whenever I install the iCloud Control Panel for Windows Plugin my email no longer loads. Outlook starts fine and just sits there with an empty inbox waiting for mail to load.  I can't even open the iCloud Panel from within Control Panel either to set preferences!
    Unistalling the iCloud plug-in resolves this but I really want to sync my iCloud calender with Outlook and can't see any other way to do it, plus it worked before and then just stopped.
    Any assistance would be appreciated.

    I tired everything that was suggested in the forum.  Tried IE and firefox to no avail. When I tried computers in stores both worked.  A friend of mine who has the 32 bit setup got it to work. Several folks have stated it is the compatability issue with 64 bit.  As a last resort, I loaded safari on my home computer, and yep, it works.  Go figure, apple product.

  • Icloud Control Panel 3.1 not working in Windows 8.1/Outlook 2013

    Every time I start the Icloud Control Panel, I get the message: "Repair the Icloud Control Panel to use Icloud with Outlook".  I have Outlook 2013, and windows 8.1 pro 64 bit.  Needles to say contacts are not being sincronyzed between Icloud and Outlook.  Contacts and mail sinc does not work also in itunes.
    Repairing the Icloud control panel does not solve the issue.  If I say repair later, then this is what I get:
    Any ideas?
    Thank you.

  • Can't share photos using shared Photo Stream with iCloud Control Panel for Windows

    BACKSTORY: My friend took pictures of my family. I want to see the pictures he took. We live about 2.5 hours apart by car. Gas prices are too high for me to just drive down with an external hard drive to get the pictures and I might as well throw my money out the window if I were to ship him a hard drive and he ship it back. SO. I ask him if he would share photos with me and he quickly agreed. He added me to a Photo Stream  he has. ok cool. I recieve the invitation email just fine but this is the error I get when I click on the link:
    ERROR MESSAGE:
    Photo Stream
    Follow these steps to join a shared photo stream
    1.Make sure you have an iPhone, iPad or iPod touch running iOS 6 or a Mac running OS X 10.8.2 withiPhoto 9.4 or Aperture 3.4 or later installed.
    2. Sign in to iCloud on your devices.
    3. Open the invitation email on an updated device and tap the Join this Photo Stream button. 
    WHAT I NEED:
    How can I view shared photo streams using iCloud Windows control panel 2.1.2.0? How can I work around this error message? I don't own any of these products that apple wants me to own in order to view these photos! I don't have the cash to go out and purchase them. What can I do to get "my" photos? Do I have to be signed into my friends apple id to see the shared photos?
    What I've tried:
    I already have the icloud control panel installed and updated to the latest version.
    I'm signed into iCloud on the control panel. (no apple id password issues)
    I have photo stream checked.
    I have my photo stream checked
    I have shared photo stream checked.
    I have tried copying and pasting the link into the address bars of Safari for Windows, Google Chrome, Internet Explorer,  and Firefox respectively and pressing enter to load. all present the same error message.
    I visited iCloud.com to see if there was anywhere to access the shared photo stream there... No option exisits
    Checked my photo stream folder in windows explorer. it's completely empty. I haven't put any of my own photos there so nothings missing per se... I just can't see my friends shared photos.
    MY SET UP:
    Windows 7 64bit Home Premium
    4gb of RAM
    iCloud control panel version 2.1.2.0
    I don't own any version of Outlook, (if that matters. I doubt that it matters at all in this case.)
    I don't have any iOS Devices or a mac capable of 10.8. My MacBook is stuck at 10.6.8. It's a late mid 2008 just before the aluminum unibody computers came out. If I had only waited another month... sigh. Murphy's Law is alive and well.
    any sugestions, especially correct answers, are welcome. please help me figure this out. Thanks in advance.

    Hello desert_dweller5,
    It sounds like you art trying to access a Shared Photo Stream, but you do not have one of the devices to enable your Apple ID as an iCloud account.  The following article provides information on how Shared Photo Streams work:
    iCloud: Photo Stream FAQ
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4486
    The article states that for privately Shared Photo Streams to work, the recipient will not only have to have an Apple ID, but it will have to be an iCloud account:
    Friends and family with iCloud accounts can view your photos in the Photos app on any device using iOS 6 or later; on a Mac in iPhoto 9.4 or Aperture 3.4 or later; on a Windows PC with Windows Vista or later and iCloud Control Panel 2.0 or later installed; or on a second generation or later Apple TV with software version 5.1 or later installed. They can also view your photos on the web if you enable Public Website in the settings or options for your Shared Photo Stream.
    Since you do not have an iCloud account and just and Apple ID, your friend can share the photo stream as a public website so that you can view it, as stated in the same article: 
    Can I share with people who don't have an iCloud account?
    Yes. If you enable Public Website in the settings or options for your shared photo stream your photos will be published to a website that anyone can view in an up-to-date web browser.
    To be able to change an Apple ID to an iCloud account, you would need an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 5 or later or a Mac with OS X Lion v10.7.4 or later as stated in the following article:
    Creating an iCloud account: Frequently Asked Questions

  • Login issue on iCloud Control Panel for Windows

    After I install iCloud for Windows, I cannot login. I tried the latest version of iCloud first and then the older one seen here on picture but no changes. I do not get any errors, only the screen below trying to log in. I turned Firewall off to make sure nothing is blocking it. No change.
    Help.

    There isn't one.  The earliest version supported is Vista SP2.

  • HT4759 iCloud Control Panel on Windows XP

    Are there any workarounds to be able to download & use the iCloud Control Panel on Windows XP?

    here is a simple hack to get iCloud control panel to work on Windows XP to give you synced access to Contacts, Calenders, Reminders and Bookmarks. It also can be used to set up your me.com mail. Photostream doesn't work.
    I found a solution here, have written it up in clearer english and added details re IMAP support for me.com addresses here:
    http://42i.co/s/1ii
    In summary:
    You need:
    Unpacking program e.g. 7-Zip or WinRar
    Orca MSI editor
    The iCloud setup hack for Windows XP:
    Download iCloud Control Panel for Windows- NOTE: old versions that work are still avaliable in my solution: http://42i.co/s/1ii
    Open iCloudSetup.exe file with WinRar or 7-Zip and extract.
    Navigate to and open the iCloud.msi or iCloud64.msi (for 64bit systems) with Orca.
    In the left table select LaunchCondition. Then change in the right table “VersionNT> = 600” to “VersionNT> = 200” and Save.
    Run modified iCloud.msi and install.
    Run iCloud Control Panel, located in the Windows Control Panel, and set up as you want.
    I've had reports that you need to keep the files extracted from the .exe file in the same directory during installaton of the .msi file.
    Have fun!

  • ICloud 3.0 Control Panel for Windows - Non-IE Bookmark Sync

    FYI
    The new iCloud Control Panel for Windows 3.0 offers bookmark sync with Chrome and Firefox
    I could not get the new iCloud Control Panel for Windows 3.0 to recognize bookmark sync for any browser except IE. I downloaded the Firefox add-in and enabled it but it would not show Firefox bookmark sync as an option.I tried deleting and reintstalling both the iCloud Control Panel and Firefox.
    I finally solved the issue and got it work when I removed the additional profiles for Firefox.
    Check your (windows) Firefox profile at:
    users/yourusername/app data/roaming/mozilla/profiles
    Once I deleted the additional profile and restarted Firefox and the iCloud Control Panel I was able to select Bookmark sync with Firefox or Chrome.
    I hope this helps others that could not enable this option.

    Hello Todd,
    I too have the same problem (I can not display the "Options" button on the control panel, therefore I can not synchronize)
    I looked in the profiles of Mozilla Firefox, but unfortunately I have only one profile (default profile)
    How do I solve the problem?
    Thank you very much
    Maurizio

  • Icloud control panel for pc, no checkbox next to calendar

    Hi,
    I'm trying to sync my icloud calendar to my windows 8 calendar app.  I downloaded the latest icloud control panel for windows 8.  when i opened it, there's no checkbox next to  "mail, contacts, calendar & tasks for outlook."  instead it says "mail, contacts, calendar & tasks are online.  any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

    You have to delete iCloud/Outlook artifacts from the Windows 7 installation. Deinstall iCloud control panel and delete the artifacts. Where to find them? Here's a detailed description: http://miapple.me/2012/11/18/troubleshooting-icloud-tasks-and-contacts-in-outloo k-2010-on-windows-8/
    I may receive some form of compensation, financial or otherwise, from my recommendation or link.

  • Where can i find the icoud control panel for windows vista

    I need to back up my iphone and cannot find the software for the icloud control panel for windows vista --- only for windows 7 and 8.
    Where can I find this as Ineed to back upp my phone before an appointment tomorrow to replace my battery.
    Thanks for your help

    Here: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1687.
    If you're trying to back up your phone to iCloud, you don't do this on your computer.  You have to do it using wifi.  First go to Settings>iCloud, sign in with your Apple ID to create your account, tap Storage & Backup and turn iCloud Backup on at the bottom.  Then, to manually start a backup right away, tap Back Up Now at the bottom.  Connect it to your charger as the first backup will take some time to complete.  (Subsequent backups will be much faster as they only back up changed files.)
    After that, just connect it to wifi and your charger and lock the screen when you go to bed at night.  It will automatically back up daily.

  • Icloud control panel w Windows 8

    I have a new pc laptop with windows 8.  Downloading icloud control panel, to sync w iphone and ipad mini, download message says I need Windows Vista w service pack 2 or Windows 7.  Can I use Windows 8, or do I need an update, or something before syncing in new pc.

  • HT4436 iCloud control panel for my PC with Windows 7

    I just downloaded iCloud control panel for my PC with Windows 7, created an Apple ID, but when trying to open iCloud control panel it says the info I typed in is a legitimate Apple ID but not an iCloud login. ***?

    Have you ensured that PhotoStream is on in the iCloud Settings in your iPhone?
    Make sure you're connected to WiFi with a good connection.
    Make sure you have at least 20% battery life on your phone. PhotoStream will not work unless you have at least 20% battery.
    Try turning your phone off and then turning it back on again.

  • I installed the latest version of icloud control panel (allegedly Windows 8 compatible) on my Windows 8 laptop. Installation successful, but on clicking on the icloud icon nothing happens. The same software worked on my Windows 7 PC.

    Superb detail, thank you.
    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?
