Why is the iCloud in settings greyed out

I would say you have the Restriction set that prevents changing accounts. Go to Settings>General>Restrictions

  • TS1398 why is the wifi greyed out?

    since uploading the toy story short films, from the 12 days of christmas, to my iphone 4s, ive had problems with the wifi dropping off. I reset wifi and it was ok for a while but then went completely. I have reset back to factory settings and it is still the same. Should i return my phone to Apple as its only 5 months old?

    You posted in the iPad forum instead of the Airport forum. To get answers to your question, next time post in the proper forum. See https://discussions.apple.com/index.jspa  I'll request that Apple relocate your post.

  • Icloud is greyed out in settings can't access iCloud or Twitter

    iCloud an Twitter are greyed out in Settings on my iPad.  iTunes says that it was backed up this morning. I can not access iCloud on my pad.  Anyonelse?

    A little more info is needed.  How are you trying to access iCloud (via contacts, calendar, mail app)?  Also check Settings>Restrictions.  Not sure if turning it on would cause this, but check to be sure its not turned on.

  • ICloud greyed out

    iCloud in Settings on my iPhone is greyed out and inaccessible. Under Mail, Contacts, Calendars, the sub-section Accounts is also greyed out. My existing Gmail account is show and is recieving email in the Mail app.
    Why are these items greyed out? How can I set up iCloud without these Settings menus? It has been this way since I downloaded iOS 5 three days ago with no changes.

    Well, I tried a full backup and restore on my phone and only managed to complicate matters. Now iTunes doesn't recognize my phone as being my phone.. it keeps offering to restore the phone and claims another phone is already registered. Yay. Is this because of iCloud?
    The phone was fully backed up and restored, and I had the fun of repoplutating my phone with registered apps. But iCloud and the Mail settings are still greyed out.

    Dear apple, I am really dissapointed with you. Around January 2013, my iPhone 4s 16GB White has hardware issues, which was the Wi-Fi grey out. The wifi grey out means that I can't access the wifi on/off button, and also it has no connection. I have put up with it for months, until june 7 when I decided it has been long enough, and I got a replacement. I told the genius bar what happened, and I already did the so called "steps" that apple reccommended on the site, which was reset network settings, restore iPhone. The genius bar gave me a replacement phone, so I was expecting that the problem would be over, but it isn't. It seems that it's iOS 6.1.3 which is the case of most public complaints on apple iPhone products. Not even 3 weeks after I got the phone replaced, it is doing it again, so I suspect I'm just going to get a replacement again? Unfortunately I only have until 5th of july 2013 until my 1 year warranty is up. After that, any issue I have, I have to purchase apple care. People are expecting this problem to be fixed but I don't see it being solved any time soon. This is horrible and really low, because I have been a good customer, when I talk to the people at the genius bar, I show the utmost respect I can to them for the work they put into their job, but somewhere there is a problem where something has gone wrong. Because of that, people that only have a one year warranty (which i received because I purchased my apple iPhone at an Optus outlet, once that one year warranty is up, I have to pay for a problem that isn't even my fault? That isn't how it should work, you should be fixing this problem so people can be happy customers and leave happy. Obviously you don't all know how to do your jobs, because if you did, we wouldn't have this problem. I would like a replacement phone, ONCE AGAIN. If this problem occurs again, I will simply stop buying your products, and lose faith in your company, your's sincerely, Jack Maher.

    This is a user to user help forum only. You are not addressing Apple here.
    My iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, and iPad 2 are running 6.1.3 with no such problem and the same with the overwhelming majority of iOS devices running 6.1.3.

  • Apple ID greyed out in Settings-how to change?

    My grandaughter got a new iPod Touch.  She is using her mother's apple id but wants to change to one of her own.  The iPod is already set up with mother's id, and the id is greyed out in Settings.  How can she change the id to her own?

    Appears that the Restriction that prevents changing accounts is set. Go to Settings>General>Restrictions. Restrictions is passcode protected
    Forgotten RESTRICTIONS Passcode
    - Restore from a backup that was make before you added the Restrictions passcode. If you restore from a backup made with the Restrictions passcode the Restrictions passcode is also restored.
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    - If you are up to file manipulation see:

  • Why is the White MacBook out of the store?

    Hallo Apple lovers,
    I have a quastion for you: Why is the White MacBook out of the apple store?
    Greetz,
    Ruben.

    The MacBook was sort of the "odd man out" in the whole MacBook lineup.  With the update of the Air and the availability of the 13" MacBook Pro, there really isn't a place for the MacBook.  Although, I don't believe Apple has made any announcement about discontinuing it.

  • HT4759 Why is the iCloud not backing up?

    Why is the iCloud not backing up?

    Even though iCloud can hold your iOS devices backup file and can store some data it is more of a syncing service than a backup service. Care to elaborate a little more, what is not backing up?

  • HT1766 I do not see the icloud icon in my settings.  How do I restore or load it?

    I do not see the icloud icon in my settings.  How do I restore or load it?

    I do not see how you could not have iCloud in the settings if you are running iOS 5 or higher. If you are running iOS 6, it should be directly below the Privacy Setting.
