Icloud information for windows 8.1?

Hi, I have windows 8.1 and i am trying to setup my icloud email to it. So, long story short I cant connect. I need to know if icloud is EAS or IMAP. I need to know Incoming (IMAP) email Server and Outgoing (SMTP) email Server and the ports. Can anyone help me or direct me to a youtube video that helps?

Those should be the correct settings. See if this helps: http://miapple.me/2013/08/16/setting-up-icloud-email-in-windows-8-1-mail-app/.

What is the canonical name of icloud applet for windows?

Hi, I am trying to determing the canonical name of the icloud applet for windows. Does anyone know it?

To expound a bit, within win7 control panel sits "iCloud". I am attempting to hide the applet from being visible in control panel using group policy editor. No big deal really, the hard part is determining the cononical name. I have tried it in ways akin to other names, but no dice. Here are some samples:

You can not create an iCloud account using a PC, you will need an Apple product. Once the account exists you can logon to it from a PC.

HT6413 trying to download the new update for icloud update for windows and it keeps failing do we know why??

trying to download the icloud update for windows on my laptop and it keeps failing. please help???

Yes, I'm having this problem also and mistakenly uninstalled iCloud 3.1 thinking that this would resolve the problem....which it didn't. Now I'm without iCloud period and have been searching for the old version of 3.1 to reinstall to no avail, and it seems that many people are having the same problem. Does anyone have a link or download for iCloud 3.1?

When using Icloud service for windows to synchronize with outlook, what outlook profile does it use - is there a way to specify which one?

After loading - iCloud Control Panel for Windows v1.1 and logging in icloud
I have options to synchronize several Outlook Items with icloud.
Mail, contacts, calendar, etc.
The questions is to what outlook profile icloud control panel will connect to synchronize.
I am asking because on this PC, I have 3 profiles -> all with differnt contacts, and calendar items.
Each profile has a different name.
iCloud Control Panel simply says "contacts" -> Outlook ==> which profile in outlook.
Thank you

Under "tools", "Options" , "applications" on my computer there isn't a "mailto". so these instructions don't work. Any other ideas?

Where is spell-check on iCloud mail for Windows PC?

Is spell check available on the iCloud mail control panel for Windows PC?

Did you ever figure this out? I have the same question?

ICloud update for Windows won't install

I keep getting the Apple update dialog that states there is an update for the iCloud for Windows application. I've tried installing from there, downloading the update from Tools -> Download and even downloaded to whole setup file from iCloud.com. ALL of them fail with the error that there is a problem with the files and it immediately rolls back the changes.
This happens on my desktop with Windows 7 and my laptop with Windows 8.
Any suggestions?

When trying to install iCloud for Windows in Windows v8.1 64 bit I get the error:
"The installer encountered errors before iCloud Control panel could be configured. Your system has not been modified. To try these operations at a later time, please run the installer again"
I have disable the Anti Virus, removed other Apple apps, re booted the system and have tried the installer several time from several sources. THEY ALL FAIL.
Excerpt from Event Viewer;

ICloud available for Windows Vista, but not Snow Leopard???

I have Multipal Macs with the Core Duo chipset that can not run LION and no $$$$ to upgrade hardware right now.
WHY does Windows VISTA get iCloud suport but I who can't upgrade to LION do not?
I understand leaving out Leaopard, but SNOW too?

With the removal of Rosetta in Lion and the requirement for Lion in order to use iCloud Macs are no longer an option for poeple that need to be able to run older applications.
Many places bought Macs because they could run just about anything, Windows, Linux, PPC software, even Classic applications via Sheepshaver.
The big issue is the loss of being able to run PPC applications. Freehand, Pagemaker, Framemaker, Quicken to name just a few applications that will never be ported. People and businesses have huge amounts of documents in these formats. It's not stuff that is used regularly but it is files that need to be accessed and sometimes modified.
All these applications can run on a modern Windows machine as can iCloud but not on a Mac running Lion.
While I'm complaining... I setup a bunch of Macs, iOS devices and some PCs all on iCloud today. The loss of email account syncing meant I had to spend hours setting up email on each machine ( each device had just under a dozen accounts on it) instead of just one machine and having it propagate to all the other devices. Going to be real fun trying to keep email rules in sync on all the Macs.

Disc information for Windows Media Player

I have a client who wishes the DVD title and track information to be displayed in Windows Media Player (which he uses to view DVDs on his computer). As far as I am able to determine WMP downloads this information from the Microsoft Windows Media database when the disc is opened in WMP. I have not been able to find a way to upload this information or store it on the disc in a way that WMP can access.
There is a process described in the WMP help file which seems to work for media files (audio or video) but it does not work for DVDs. I am not sure if it is because the DVD is a read only device or whether the process is not meant to work for DVDs. The help file only uses an audio file as an example of how the process is meant to work.
Any information - even if it is to say it can't be done - would be greatly appreciated.
Trevor

Alex has you covered... it can't be done on a burned DVD from DVDSP. Is your client able to view this data from other projects written to DVD-R? (by that I mean content authored on DVDSP or Encore or similar, not copied from a mass produced DVD).

HT4436 iCloud account for windows 8 and not latest apples iOS product

I recently upgraded to a windows 8 and have the latest itunes installed meaning I have access to icloud but I do not have the latest iOS so I can't set up an iCloud account. Is there a way I can do this through itunes or on my pc?

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
You have to log in iCloud on an iPhone, iPad, iPod touch or Mac first before logging in iCloud on the PC. See > http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup

HT203687 Apple Imap servers in iCloud for Windows are wrong

I have several problems with syncing iCloud with Outlook 2007 running on 64-bit Windows 7.
The first is that iCloud Control Panel assumes the IMAP server is p08-imap.mail.me.com. This does not work. My login is [email protected] If I use the Login Name MYNAME and my iCloud password the mail works when I rename the servers imap.mail.me.com.
Apple - can you please reset the iCloud control panel so that (a) the user can set the email server names (b) the defaults are imap.mail.me.com?
There are several posts noting this bug - please correct it ASAP.
Problem 2 - is only Mail is synced. No Contacts, No Tasks. I suspect it's because it can't log on or times out. I have over 3000 contacts that I can read on iCloud. In fact, I did sync them for a while yesterday - but when I shut a .PST file it vanished and when I reopened the .PST file the contacts never came back - so I suspect they are not really on my PC. I think this is a timeout or security issue. I have McAfee Security Center - but Outlook trusts you!

Of course I did. I opened every single .pst file I could see.
In the end I created a new .pst file and made it the default file. I then could use the Contacts and Calendar. However, the email servers still had the wrong names - so I deleted the email account in Outlook so it wouldn't ask me for a password that didn't work.
The problem in Outlook was that iCloud gave the incoming and outgoing mail servers the wrong name - it was prefixed by p08.imap. The Apple iCloud client for Windows software should check that the mail servers have the wrong name. It is not robust software at all.
I suspect that either the .pst file was corrupted or one of the other supporting files.
So your answer did NOT help.

Icloud for windows xp

I set up itunes to sync my contact, 2 x calendars, pictures, email etc with itunes to my ipad 3 & iphone but it wont sync the claendars. I have Windows XP Home Edition 2002 service pack 3 and Outlook 2007. I then tried to download icloud for Windows XP but when it finished downloading it tells me it will only work with Vista or newer. Do I need icloud to sort out this problem and if so is there a different version of icloud version for windows xp I need to download?

No, you need Vista SP2 or higher. About all you can do is add your iCloud email account using these settings: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4864, then check your other iCloud data by going to icloud.com from your browser.

ICloud mail and Windows RT 8.1

I've checked and used ALL instructions which describe different ways of using iCloud mail on a Windows RT 8.1 tablet.
I've got following results:
Standard Windows RT Mail client
can't configure icloud mail at all (both using pxx-imap.mail.me.com/pxx-smtp.mail.me.com and just imap.mail.me.com/smtmail.me.com)
Outlook 2013 on Windows RT
SMTP - I'm able to connect to SMTP server pxx-smtp.mail.me.com (with port 587 and TLS enabled) and can send a test message
IMAP - I'm not able to connect to IMAP server (both pxx-imap.mail.me.com and imap.mail.me.com) with port 993 and different security settings: "None", 'TLS", "SSL" or "Auto". Though different security options give different failures:
With "None" enabled I'm getting an error from server saying, that I can't connect withou encryption
With "SSL" enabled I'm getting an error "Connection timeout expired"
With both "TLS" and "Auto" I can't get any errors at all - Outlook 2013 is trying to connect to IMAP server forever and is nether connecting neither dropping connection
Obviously, I can't install iCloud for Windows (since there is no iCloud application for Windows RT).
P.S. I've found an advice to remove any special characters from password, but I suppose, this is not the case, because I can connect to SMTP server, so the password is OK.
Since Windows 8.1 is rather strange OS, I've tried another non-Apple device (android phone) and get the same results as with Outlook 2013.
So my question is: is it possible to use iCloud mail with non-Apple device (and if the answer is "yes" - how should I set things up) or it is really impossible (and I should probably exchange my Surface RT for a new iPad) ?
