Can't login to iCloud on my iPhone

I've set up icloud on my iphone, but screen for settup continues to come up

First, a caution: Do not retry passwords. Trying random passwords or wrong passwords more than (usually) twice, and that'll usually trip evasion, and you'll get blocked even with the right passwords. If you've retried random passwords, you'll have to let things "cool off" for a while, and try again later.
Open up the details drawer in the Mail.app Connection Doctor troubleshooting, and re-run the connection tests. Expurgate anything sensitive from the diagnostics, and post the iCloud-related errors here.
Alternatively, remove the iCloud account from the accounts listed within Mail.app. Re-add it. See if that clears the issue.
Alternatively and if the other options here fail, contact Apple iCloud support directly and request assistance.

I changed my Apple ID, now I can't login to iCloud because it still has my old Apple ID and the password no longer works to log me in. How can I get back into iCloud so that I can switch off Find my iPhone so I can make these changes? Thank you.

If icloud is not on my computer will that affect login into icloud through my iphone 4s

the SIGN IN TO ICLOUD DIALOG BOX reappears after I enter my password. Additionally, icloud is not downloaded on to my computer. Why isn't icloud accepting my password ? How do I resolve this issue?

Original Question: if icloud is not on my computer will that affect
login into icloud through my iphone 4s
On my iphone, a dialog box appears asking for user login to icloud-- ENTER
USER   "password". After I attempt to
login in to i-cloud the dialog box re-appears asking for AGAIN user
password login and will not remove from main screen.
( Please continue reading and thank you for your response.) I received a response ques. asking, Are you trying to login to i-cloud? Yes, I was trying to login to         i-cloud in order to remove the dialog box which will not remove after each time, I entered the correct i-cloud LOGIN USER "PASSWORD" requesting to be entered.
My first thought was (my iphone does not have wifi connection) to connect to
wifi because the user login is not connecting permitting login to be
accepted. I selected cancel to bypass the dialog box asking for user
Login password to icloud in order to remove it from the home
screen.    I attempt to go to wifi settings. The dialog
box will re- appear preventing from SELECTING wifi settings because
the dialog box does not give enough time to remove itself from main
screen in order to change wifi settings in which to allow wifi.
Additionally, my thought it is the correct Login password being enter
because when online at the icoud login page asking for username and password,
both are accepted and allow access.
Also, one thought to the issue, after opening iTunes it has stated that my
icloud session has expired. My intentions at this moment are
not to purchase a subscription to icloud at this time. Although i
would like to access the account later on, if there wouldn't
be conditional problems with iclouds at a later point in time, then there
would not be any concerns deleting the icloud account in order to remove the
icloud dialog box. However, i would consider deleting acct as a last
step.
AS I TROUBLESHOOT THE ISSUE
reasons for issue posted:
iPHONE ISSUE - the phone settings not set to sync phone with computer
iPHONE ISSUE - Needs to connect with internet
ITUNES ISSUE- THE ITunes settings not set correctly
ICLOUD ISSUE- SETTINGS NOT SET RIGHT OR
ACCOUNT IS INVALID- NEED TO PAY FOR AN ACCOUNT
===================
SO AFTER ATTEMPTING TO TROUBLESHOOT THE I -CLOUD ISSUE ON THE PHONE
1. THE PHONE SHOULD BE ACTIVE AND HAVE WIFI SERVICE.
2.THE ICLOUD DIALOG BOX ASKING FOR ICLOUD USER LOGIN PASSWORD HAS TWO SELECTIONS. SHOWING "OK" BUTTON FOR ENTERING PASSWORD AND "CANCEL."   WIFI IS NEEDED TO RESOLVE THIS ISSUE.YOU MUST BE QUICK TO BYPASS THE DIALOG BOX AND ATTEMPT TO SELECT THE WIFI CONNECTION IN ORDER TO PROCEED TO RESOLVE I-CLOUD ISSUE WITH DIALOG BOX RE-APPEARING.
ADDITIONALLY, I SELECTED TO DELETE THE ACCOUNT. JUST BEFORE I CHANGED SETTINGS AND CONNECTED WITH WIFI.
I AM NOT SURE IF THE CHANGES WENT THROUGH.
ADDITIONALLY , ON MY IPHONE 4S, I WENT TO SETTINGS MENU AND SAW THAT MY DATA WAS NOT ON!!
I TURNED IT ON
ICLOUD ON MY IPHONE ASKED TO LOGIN WITH USERNAME ACCOUNT AND USERNAME PASSWORD. AND THEN ASKED IF I WANTED TO MERGE ACCOUNT INFORNMATION.
   I MYSELF, UNSURE OF THE OUTCOMES CHOSE NIETHER. I WOULD APPRECIATE ANY RESPONSE UNDERSTANDING THE DIFFERENCE OF MERGING OR NOT MERGING ICLOUD ACCOUNT AND WAS IT A RESULT OF DELETEING THE OLD ICLOUD ACCOUNT.
THE DIALOG BOX REMOVED ITSELF FROM THE MAIN SCREEN AND FROM MY UNDERSTAND ACCEPTED THE USERNAME PASSWORD WHEN I LOGGED IN AND UPDATED THE FILE, AS A RESULT FROM THE START, WAS CHANGED DUE TO FORGETTIG THE OLD PASSWORD.
AFTER TROUBLESHOOTING MYSELF, I LEARNED THAT YOU NEED WIFI   IN ORDER FOR THE CONNECTION TO GO THROUGH IN WHICH IS NEED FOR THE DEVICE TO COMMUNICATE. AND YOUR DATA ON YOUR PHONE SETTING SHOULD BE ON IN ORDER TO ALLOW WIFI CONNECTION TO BE ENABLED.
IF MY UNDERSTANDING IS CORRECT, THOSE CHANGES SHOULD BE IMPLEMENTED IN WHICH TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE OF THE DIALOG BOX FROM RE-APPEARING ON THE MAIN SCREEN.
I WISH THERE WAS MORE HELP INVOLVED IN RESOLVING THESE TECHNICAL ISSUES. I AM SERVING IN THE MILITARY OVERSEAS AND AS CALLED FOR TECHNICAL HELP, I WAS USING A PHONE CARD WITH A LIMITED AMOUNT OF MINUTES. MOST OF MY TIME WAS SPENT ON WAITING FOR ASSISTANCE AND STATING INFORMATION THAT SHOULD OF BEEN ASKED DURING THE WAIT PERIOD TO EXPEDITE THE PROCESS AND TIME WAS SPENT REPEATING INFORMATION WHICH HINDERED MY TIME TO RESOLVE ANY ISSUES.
Thank you for the one response for assistance. I just wish there had been more response for help.
Additionally, for those whom use forums, your posts should be clear and concise, to the point, and I CAN NOT SAY THIS ENOUGH, EXPRESSED WITH A COMPLETE THOUGHT IN ORDER TO PREVENT AND AVIOD CONFUSION. MOREOVER, I SEE ALOT OF EXPRESSED THOUGHTS THAT DON'T MAKE SENSE , APPEARING AS IF WHAT IS BEING POSTED ARE NOT BEING REVIEWED BEFORE THEY ARE POSTED.   I WOULD HOPE OTHERS READ THIS POST AND USE IT AS AN EXAMPLE ON HOW TO EXPRESS A POINT WHETHER IT BEING A COMMENT, QUESTION OR, WHEN ATTEMPTING TO EXPRESS HOW TO ACCOMPLISH A STEP BY STEP TASK , TO AVIOD ASSUMPTIONS. AGAIN, COMPLETE THOUGHTS ARE REQUIRED.

You'll need to contact the previous owner to get them to remove the account.
There is no way to bypass this security feature. If you can't contact the previous owner you have wasted your money and have a phone you'll never be able to use.

Hey jamesarm97 & diegofoto,
On August 21st, some users may have been unable to access iCloud services for a short period of time. Apple worked quickly to resolve these issues, however you two may have experienced them. To check the current status of these systems please see:

Welcome to the Apple community.
Once three iCloud accounts have been created on any iOS device, it can you no longer be used to create any more accounts, regardless of what you do to it. You will need to use a computer or another iOS device to create your account and then use the details to log into your account on your phone.

Can't login to iCloud on Lion

On my Macbook Air, I can't login to iCloud.com in a browser, I get the following.
icloud has unexpectedly stopped
In the Sys Prefs, I can't login either, I get an invalid user/pass error and it says I can't sign in at this time.
My phone is signed in fine.
I've deleted all references to mobileme and me.com from my keychain, repaird permissions, etc, and still nothing.

"Unrecognized Apple ID or password"
Make sure your iCloud account is setup correctly > Apple - iCloud - Learn how to set up iCloud on all your devices
Make sure you are using the correct Apple ID and password.
If you still can't login try "resetting" your Apple ID password > My Apple ID

Can't login to iCloud messages and FaceTime

i can't login to iCloud imessages and FaceTime.

This could be a complicated problem to solve, as there are many possible causes for it. Test after taking each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. Back up all data before making any changes.
Before proceeding, test on another network, if possible. That could be a public Wi-Fi hotspot, if your computer is portable, or a cellular network if you have a mobile device that can share its Internet connection. If you find that iMessage works on the other network, the problem is in your network or at your ISP, not in your computer.
Step 1
Check the status of the service. If the service is down, wait for it to come back up. There may be a localized outage, even if the status indicator is green.
Step 2
Sign out of iMessage and FaceTime on all your Apple devices. Log out and log back in. Try again to sign in.
Step 3
Restart your router and your broadband device, if they're separate. You may have to skip this step if you don't control those devices.
Step 4
From the menu bar, select
           ▹ About This Mac
Below the "OS X" legend in the window that opens, the OS version appears. Click the version line twice to display the serial number. If the number is missing or invalid according to this web form, take the machine to an Apple Store or other authorized service center to have the problem corrected.
Step 5
Take the steps suggested in this support article. If you don't understand some of the steps or can't carry them out, ask for guidance.
Step 6
From the menu bar, select
           ▹ System Preferences... ▹ Network
If the preference pane is locked, click the lock icon in the lower left corner and enter your password to unlock it. Then click the Advanced button and select the Proxies tab. If the box marked SOCKS Proxy is checked, uncheck it. You don’t need to change any other settings in the window. Click OK and then Apply. Test.
The result may be that you can't connect to the Internet at all. Revert the change if that happens, or if iMessage still doesn't work. Remember that you must Apply any changes you make in the preference pane before they take effect.
Step 7
Select from the menu bar
           ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Storage
and click
          Block all sites from storing information on this computer
Close the preference pane.
Step 8
Make sure you know the ID and password you use with iMessage. Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
Use the search box in the toolbar of the Keychain Access window to find and delete all items with "iMessage" or "com.apple.idms" in the name. Log out and log back in.
Step 9
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
If iMessage worked in the guest account, stop here and post your results.
Step 10
Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem.
Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound outputand Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. After testing, restart as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and test again.
If iMessage worked in safe mode, but still doesn't work when you restart in "normal" mode, stop here and post your results.
Step 11
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
/Library/Preferences/com.apple.apsd.plist
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
          Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item selected. Move the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password. Restart the computer and empty the Trash.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
          Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
Step 12
Reset the NVRAM.
Step 13
Reset the System Management Controller (SMC).
Step 14
Reinstall OS X.
Step 15
If none of the above steps resolves the issue, make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or contact Apple Support. When you set up a support call, select "Apple ID" as the product you need help with, not the hardware model. That way, if you're not under AppleCare, you may be able to talk your way out of being charged for the call.

Can not login to icloud at this time...

Hi
So, I do not get this. I have tried to setup an icloud account for my dad on his MacBook Pro running 10.8.2, using his Apple id.
It just says that it can not login to icloud at this time, but I can login icloud.com using the same user/password via safari.
So, what is this ?? Anyone with a similar experience ?
Thanks.
stj.

Workaround - works
I backed up and deleted the children's accounts on the Mac, recreated them as normal accounts with no Parental Controls and setup all of the iCould mail and other apps.
I then locked down the browser for sites like google and youtube to use their explicit content blocking.
I then added parental controls to the accounts.
All is now working correctly although there is clearly an issue,
If you can be bothered to do this, you'll be fine.

TS3988 can i set up icloud on my iphone 3gs ios 4.1??

can i set up icloud on my iphone 3gs ios 4.1??

No, not without updating to iOS 6. (iCloud requires iOS 5 or higher, but at this point you would have to update to iOS 6 as iOS 5 is no longer available.) Follow this guide to update from iOS 4: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972.

Apple ID is all of a sudden not an iCloud account. It used to work until a few days ago, but now iCloud can't register the ID and Outlook can't login to iCloud.

My Apple ID is all of a sudden not an iCloud account.
So it says any way. It used to work until a few days ago, but now iCloud can't register the ID and Outlook can't login to iCloud from my pc. Anyone else faced this problem or know how to deal with it?

Ditto here.
I tried setting up iClunk today.....
.....on my Windows 7 64bit computer.
I click on the iCloud icon in the Network & Internet section; the iCloud sign in window pops up and I type in my Apple user ID and password and it replies that I need to setup a separate iCloud account....even though it plainly states that for the user to "Sign in with your Apple ID".
Go figure.

TS3376 Can i search via icloud my lost iphone if it is offline

Hi,
i cant find my iphone and the questions i have for you is :
Can i search via icloud my lost iphone if it is offline ?

No. It needs to be online, otherwise it has no connection to the internet and nothing can contact it.

Can't login to iCloud! Really need help!

Hi, i have been trying to find a solution so i can login into icloud on mac preferences but can't, i get this error message;
"You can't sign in at this time. Try signing in again later."
I can login to the app store and on my iPhone and iPad. Any help really appreciated!

SOLVED....for me, anyway
Okay, here's what worked for me after upgrading to Mavericks (it should work for you, too):
(1) Deleted all the files in:
User(your name)/Library/Application Support/iCloud/Accounts/
(2) Shut down the computer, waited 15-20 seconds and turned it back on.
(3) Then I went to
System Preferences
iCloud icon
(4) Input the requested information and followed the directions to be back in business.
But, first you must be able to see the folder because it is hidden:
Use Finder and click on Utilities then Terminal
Type in (very carefully) the following exactly:
Chflaga nohidden ~/Library
Then
Finder
Go
Computer
User account name/Library/Application Support/iCloud/Accounts
Remember, the files are under your user account and not the harddrive.

Can't login to icloud

I have had an apple id for quite a while, it's just my username, for example "jsmith"
I use this id for iTunes, and App Store.
however on my new iPhone when I try to setup iCloud it says I must have a "@icloud.com" account. How do i convert my current apple id so I can use it with iCloud?

It tells me to add a device when I user "jsmith"
...very annoying. I can't login until I create an association with a device, but you can't add a device until you login.
