I am trying to setup iCloud account and when I login I see a popup. The Maximum number of free accounts have been activated on this iPhone. Pls, help me fix it. What other accounts? Thanks
Then you'll have to use another iOS device or Mac running OS X Lion or higher to create a new account for you to use on your phone. If you don't have one, perhaps a friend would allow you to create and account on their device (note: this will use one of their three maximum accounts). To do this, they would need to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account (which will delete the account from their device but not from iCloud), then allow you to sign back in with your ID to create the new account. Then tap Delete Account to delete the new account from their device, and finally, sign back in with their iCloud ID to restore their iCloud account to their device. Then you can sign in with your ID on your phone in Settings>iCloud and use the new account.

I have an iPhone 4S and when I try to add an iCloud account is gives me an error "Cannot Sign In, The maximum number of free accounts have been activated on this iPhone." Is there any way to deactivate an account? I have one for myself, one for my family and one for my work. I had all three on my iphone and then I deleted my work. I wanted to get my own person @me.com account. It wouldn't let me create it from my iphone, so I created it from my Macbook Pro. I am trying to add it to my iphone, but it keeps giving me that error. If there is a way I can deactivate my work one so I can use my @me.com personal account?
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. -

Was the amount of free accounts activated in this iPhone, as to proceed?
Was the amount of free accounts activated in this iPhone, as to proceed?
Each device can ony create a limited number of iCloud accounts. Once the maximum number of accounts have been created, all you can do is use one of the accounts previously created, or create a new account to use on another iOS device or Mac (running OS X 10.7.2 or later), if you have one.

its availble to get unblocked iphone 4s from apple store ? if yes what about its price ? if not can u help me to get it .
Pricing hasnt been announced as far as I know, but the Apple Store said unlocked iPhones will be available in November. Seeing as its the 30th of October, maybe check back within the next week or two?
Cost will probably be somewhere between $550-900 US depending on model/storage space. -
i bought my iphone from someone, then i created apple id, i forgot the password...and created a new one
now i want to creat iCLOUD with my last apple id and it wrote the maximum number of free accounts have been activated on this iphone.
what can i do ?! someone can help me?Tell your brother to do the following. He will need your Apple ID and password to create your account.
Open his "my photo stream" album on his phone and save any photos he wants to keep to his camera roll by tapping Edit, taping all the photos, taping Share, then tapping Save to Camera Roll.
When finished, go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, and choose Delete from My iPhone when prompted. This will only delete his account and the data he is syncing with iCloud from his phone, but not from iCloud. His data will be synced back to his phone when he signs back in at step 5.
In Settings>iCloud, sign back in with your Apple ID and password to create your new account. Do not turn on any iCloud data syncing (i.e., keep everything turned to Off in Settings>iCloud).
In Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account. If prompted, choose Delete from My iPhone.
In Settings>iCloud, sign back in with his original iCloud ID and password and turn his iCloud data syncing back to On. This will sync his iCloud data back to his phone.
His phone should now be back to where he started, except that it's likely that not all his photo stream photos will be in his my photo stream album (which is why he saved them to his camera roll at the beginning).
You can now go to Settings>iCloud on your phone and sign in with your Apple ID to use the new account he created for you on his phone. -
I tried to set up icloud on my iphone 4 and I get this message that "the maximum number of free accounts have been activated on this iphone". My iphone was used by someone else before I got it. How do I deactivate these accounts or overcome this problem?
You were trying to create a new Apple ID for icloud. But once the device reaches is max allowed to create IDs then you can't create more. That's your situation now. To create a new account you must use another device or computer.
You can't deactivate or turn back the clock. -
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.

Hello,
Is it possible to delete the existing account of my Iphone 4s? How?
It always displays the message " The maximum number of free accounts have been activated on this iphone"
everytime i attempt to LOG-IN in Icloud.Each iOS device can create a maximum of three iCloud accounts.
You will need to create your iCloud account on another device. -
I receive a " the maximum number of free account have been activated on this iPhone " when I want to sign in iCloud with my Apple ID on my iphone..please someone help me..
Any one device can create only three iCloud accounts: this is tied to the hardware, not the user account, and there is no way round this.
You will have to create an iCloud account on another iOS device or Mac, then you can sign into it on your iPhone. -

The official method of creating / escalating to a complaint is to call support, with previous call numbers handy, and request the representative to escalate your case to a complaint. They will then create a complaint on your behalf and also be able to inform you about the complaints proceedure.
