Can I create an icloud account from another user's iphone?

I lost my iphone and I didn't create an icloud account. Can I create my icloud account from someone else's iphone?

Too late now, if your intent was to locate your phone. There is no way to locate your phone if you didn't set this stuff up before you lost your phone.

  • I can't create an icloud account from my occasion iphone 5. I don't know why...

    I bought before some days an occasion iphone 5, but always when I like to create an icloud account, in final of the process, it appears a message like that "This device (iphone) is not allowed to create a free icloud". what I must do?

    Yes.  This is what you friend would need to do.  He (she) would need to start by saving any photo stream photos on his phone to his camera roll unless they are already there.  To do this, he should go to his my photo stream album, tap Select (Edit in iOS 6), tap the photos, tap the share icon--box with upward pointing arrow (Share in iOS 6), then tap Save to Camera Roll.  Then he should go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iPhone when prompted.  (If he is running iOS 7 he will be prompted to also enter his iCloud password to turn off Find My iPhone.)  This will only delete his iCloud data from his phone, not from his iCloud account.  His data will sync back to his phone when he signs back in.
    Then you can go to Settings>iCloud on his phone and sign in with your Apple ID to create your new account.  Leave all other settings off and do not choose Merge with iCloud if you are prompted (since you do not want his data in your new account).  Then tap Delete Account to delete your new account from his phone (and provide your password if prompted to turn off Find My iPhone).
    Then your friend can go to Settings>iCloud on his phone, sign back in with his iCloud ID and his data will sync back to his phone as it was before.
    Then you can go to Settings>iCloud on your phone and sign in with your Apple ID.  Since you are signing into an existing iCloud account this time you will not receive the prompt that your phone is not allowed to create.  Then you shoudl be good to go.

  • I can't create an Icloud account

    I bought an Iphone recently and when I try to connect/creat an Icloud account using my Iphone or even on Pc it doest work for and unknoless reason, I dont know what to do anymore. I need help

    You cannot create an iCloud account from a Windows machine.  The accounts can only be initially created from an Apple device.
    What happens when you try to make on on the iPhone? http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4436
    Is this a used iPhone?  Do you get a message that the device has already created all the free accounts possible for that device?  If so, you will need to find another Apple device to create your iCloud account on.
    Apple limits any given device to creating only three free accounts.  Once a particular device has been used to create 3 accounts, it cannot ever be used to create any more iCloud accounts.  There's no way around that limitation as far as I know - you just have to find another device to create the account.  Once created, you will be able to use it on your iPhone.

  • I have an apple id and am trying to create an icloud however my phone is not allowing me. how can i create an icloud account?

    i have an apple id and am trying to create an icloud account however my phone is not allowing me and saying that the number of free attempts have been exceeded even though this is my first attempt. how can i create an icloud account?

    Are you sure the message isn't saying that the maximum number of accounts have already been created?  When you get this message you will not be able to create another account on that device.  Your only options are to either re-use one of the accounts previously created or create a new account using a different iOS device or Mac, if you have one.

    You can't delete an account, you can only stop using it.  If you're getting that error message you won't be able to create a new account on your device.  Your only options are to re-use one of the accounts previously created, or create a new account on a different iOS device or Mac (running OS X Lion or higher), if you have one.

  • How can I create my icloud account

    How can I create my icloud account?.

    Hey there!
    It sounds like you are wanting to create an iCloud account. Take a look at this info from the following article:
    How do I sign up for iCloud?
    You can sign up for iCloud on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 5 or later, or through System Preferences on a Mac with OS X Lion v10.7.4 or later. Just follow the setup instructions for your iOS device or Mac.
    You may need to verify the email address that you use for your Apple ID. See Frequently Asked Questions About Apple ID for more information.

  • How can i delete an icloud account from my iphone

    How can I delete my icloud account from my iphone. I have two icloud accounts the old one just can not retrieve the pwd to access it

    If the old ID is your ID, and if your second ID was created by editing the details of this old ID (rather than being an entirely new ID), go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

    You can't create an iCloud account on a PC. You must create the account on a Mac running Lion or newer, or an IOS device.

  • How can I separate my iCloud account from my sons phone

    How can I separate my iCloud account from my sons phone?

    Just delete your iCloud account from your sons device. Therefor open "Settings >iCloud", scroll down, and delete your account (don't worry, it will only delete the account from your sons device). If he also uses this account for iTunes and App store purchases and you would like to change that as well, then you have to do the same in "Settings > iTunes & App Stores".

    As you already knew, no, you cannot create a new iCloud account from anything but the above devices.

  • HT204053 how can i create multiple icloud accounts for my family members

    how can i create multiple icloud accounts for my family members

    Thanks...  I appreciate the reply.  Since I wrote the previous email, I actually went and changed my apple id (the main id) and the documentation I looked at said iCloud will set mail up automatically(?)...  I had it working before. 
    Also, I tried to manually set up the ID via the Mail Accounts screen(s) and I can't figure out what my server information is...  Pop or Imap?  What's the outgoing server and the incoming server?
    I typically have never had problems setting up mail accounts (in apple mail) with no problem.
    Can anyone point me in the right direction?
    Thanks in advance!
