Can't set up iCloud at all even though my Apple ID and password are correct
I can log into my iTunes store to download items with my Apple ID and password,
However, when I tried to sign into iCloud, this pop up appears
You can't sign in because your account was disabled for sercurity reasons.
To enable you account, reset your password at iforgot.apple.com.
I reset my password for about 5 times or more, but the same message appears.
Can anyone help me out with this?
Thank you very much.
Try this...
Launch iTunes on your computer.
From the iTunes menu bar click iTunes / Preferences then select the Advanced tab.
Click: Reset warnings and Reset cache
Click OK.
Restart the computer and device.
See if you can sign into iCloud.

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

I have used facetime on my mac recently and have not had this problem until today. Facetime seems to have logged out on all of my devices but after putting my password in on my iphone/ipad it is back to normal however my Macbook will not allow me to log in. I also noticed that facetime preferences is grayed and I keep trying to turn facetime on and that is graying out as well. I put in my email and password and I get stuck on "signing in". Or I get past that and I verify my email and password and I get stuck on "verifying" only to get booted back to the sign in page. My OS is up to date, my wifi is on and working and I have no firewall on my home network. I cannot figure out how to fix this. I have tried some previous message troubleshooting such as updating the DNS entry to add 8.8.8.8 and that did not work. I have tried to toggle facetime on and restart but that did not work. I can't delete and reinstall facetime as it is connected to the OS and will not allow you to do that.
I have the same problem. Unfortunately, the troubleshooting link you added has the first step listed as "Verify that FaceTime is enabled in FaceTime > Preferences" which we (the original poster and I) can't do as our Preferences are greyed out. We can't click on them to verify anything.
In FaceTime itself it's verified my apple id (also double checked via the site) and then it says the email is "verified" but then it freezes and after a minute or so it says "Could not verify the email address. Please check your network connection and try again."
After checking the network connection, it still doesn't work. It's rather frustrating as it all worked fine until about a week or two ago.
Any help would be appreciated.

I can't log into FaceTime or Messages, checked that my ID and password are correct, checked that settings are set correctly. Could it be that latest OS download changed my configurations that disable access?
Update to above question:
Hello All,
To anyone with the same problem described above, on THEIR iPad (if it is running iOS 7.0.2):
Go to Settings; Mail, Contacts, Calendars; DELETE your *******@btinternet.com e-mail account, that you originally set up either using 'Other', or the 'BT' option which I am sure was in the list previous to the iOS 7 update.
Then ADD a NEW account choosing YAHOO from the list of options. DO NOT USE 'OTHER'.
Enter the correct details just as you (almost certainly) had already done in your previous attempts using 'other'.
When you see the 'verifying......' and 'the blue ticks' you should be able to exit settings and open your mail app and then receive all your 'old' e-mails again, AND be able to SEND as well.
All my 'old' e-mails, were NOT found in the 'old e-mail' folder though. THEY are still in my inbox.
So this fix worked for me.
After I deleted my account from 'OTHER' and put it in Yahoo, I like other people also ended up with more folders.
I hope this works for you on YOUR Apple devices.

Just got new air and trying to set up. When I put in my Apple ID and password it comes up with error message 'can't sign in because of server error. Try again signing on.' Trying again does not fix. I know my ID and PW are right as work on other apple devices I have.

help, the last apple ID used to download in my ipad2 is stuck, I can't download anything because its not asking for my apple ID and password, how do I change it back to mine?
Again, this only affects you if someone *redownloaded* content with a different ID. In my case, I emailed iTunes Store support, explained the situation, and they reset the counter. I recommend you try the same
If you read discussion boards, this is a significant change from a year ago, when Apple told people in the same situation to go f&$# themselves. Clearly it's dawning on them that this is a stupid policy, and my guess is if people keep complaining they'll change it to something more reasonable. Remember, it wasn't that long ago you couldn't re-download content at all.
Apple can't really afford to play hardball on this. Sure, the hardcore fanboys will always say "Thank you sir, may I have another" whatever Apple throws at them, but the rest of us will just switch to Amazon, which has none of these restrictions. -
I know my Apple ID and password is correct, but then I enter them to activate FaceTime it says one of them is wrong. Can anyone help?
iMessage and FaceTime are currently experiencing problems it's nothing that you are doing wrong. Just wait it out and check back for iCloud status.

Initially, the Demon support desk asked me to reset all my browsing history which did nothing.
I tried Internet Explorer (7.0.5730.11) and this too failed initially but after several tries, I managed to log in and collect my mails.
I then logged out and tried Firefox, which failed (Incorrect log in name or password).
I immediately tried IE again and got in first time.
In Firefox (TOOLS, OPTIONS, SECURITY, EXCEPTIONS), I set web.mail.demon.net to permit the site any access that might have been denied.
The user name and password ARE correct (that would be too easy) but Firefox seems not to send one of these correctly ??? or is not sending something I.E. does.
aarghhhFrom the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.
If you wish, you may be able to salvage the errant extension by uninstalling and reinstalling it. Its settings will revert to their defaults. If the extension still causes a problem, remove it permanently or refer to its developer for support. -
My iPhone is using my work email to sign in to the cloud, but my apple id and password are with my "personal" email address. I can't get rid of my "work" email address on my iPhone 4S
Hi Sister Kate,
If you change the Apple ID you are using on an iPhone or other iOS device, there are several places you need to change it on the device. See this article -

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

I have a Mac desk top and and iPad, a current Apple ID and Password and gmail address. Mac says can't access icloud be cause of a problem with my gmail address. I click to fix it and it asks for a password for my OLD yahoo account, whick I don't have. BTW, this is all set up on my iPad but the account is not verified.....round and round she goes! What can I do next?
If the old ID (Yahoo address) was an earlier version of your current ID (Gmail address), try recreating your old ID from your new ID by going 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. Then enter the password for your current ID when your Mac prompts you for your Yahoo ID.

It connects to internet fine. I have tried restoring back to factory condition and hard wire update by connecting it to my Mac mini .
The date and time won't set. And won't acknowledge my Apple ID and password......... I am usually tech savy but this has caused me grief .
Do I need to downgrade my update....
But can't get any menus until I log in my apple account...
It can't log into my iTunes account until time and date have been set.
When I did the hard wire restore connected to Mac mini it wouldn't go past the date and time screen as it wouldn't when I did the wifi update too.
it just would get past that screen.
Anyone help!!This is the result of a network issue. Ensure port 123 on the router is open.
