Can't sign into icloud on my windows vista pc

ive downloaded icloud control panel for PC on my windows vista laptop!
But when i try to login, the login icon just keeps spinning and won't connect
WHY?

Hey Gingernut03,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities! So it sounds like the same type of thing is happening to both iTunes and iCloud. Check out the following iTunes article and see if that resolves the issue with both services:

I can't sign into Icloud: Server Error.

I've tried everything to sign into Icloud on my Windows 7 PC with no success! i've tried the CMD solution some people have suggested, and downloaded all the new windows updates. My verison of Itunes and Icloud are the most recent versions! No help at all from Apple on their support pages. Can anyone here suggest anything? Thanks.

same things been happening to me for months its pssing me off.have you tried turnng yor firewall etc off?

I can sign into and use iTunes but I can't sign into icloud.

I can sign into and use iTunes with no trouble but I can't sign into icloud. It makes me think I must have a different password. I go to the reset password area and choose via email but the email never comes. It's not in junk. I don't know what to do

Hi Adam ...
Make sure you have logged out of the iTunes Store then try logging in to the App Store.
And try deleting the cache associated with the App Store.
Quit the App Store if it's open.
Go to ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.appstore/Cache.db
Move the Cache.db file from the com.apple.appstore folder to the Trash.
Relaunch the App Store. Click Account right side of the App Store window and see if you can login.

I can't sign into iCloud because my Apple ID doesn't work there. For some reason it gave me a .mac email and I don't remember the password. When it gives me the option to reset my password, it's my Apple ID password which I don't want to do.

What do I do?

Hello Martin,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with your iCloud account on your Mac. I recommend signing out of iCloud first:
On your Mac, open iCloud preferences, then click Sign Out.
iCloud: Change iCloud feature settings

If you are still being prompted for your password, I recommend the steps in the following article (this article refers to an iOS device, but the steps are still relevant for your Mac as well):

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

Do you have 2-step verification on for your Apple ID? I may have a solution.
When I upgraded to Yosemite and subsequently updated my Apple ID, I would get errors when I tried to sign into iMessage and FaceTime using my apple ID (and my new password), I similarly was not able to sign in. On FaceTime, I would get errors like "unable to sign in at this time" or some times just nothing at all (the spinning 'processing' graphic would grind away until it presumably just timed out).
Turns out that I enabled 2-step notification on for my Apple ID (totally forgot about it, I set it up a couple years ago), and apparently the regular Apple ID password that you choose is not usable when you try to log in to iMessage or FaceTime through the programs themselves (intuitively, this makes sense since these programs do not have a way to prompt you for the "2nd step" code).
To solve, you have to log in to your Apple ID online (appleid.apple.com or whatever), and look for the option to "Generate App-Specific Passwords". These are unique, random passwords which are made to work around issues like these since they can be used in iMessage or FaceTime or what not. This is the same idea as to what you have to do to log into gmail on your iPhone if you have Google 2-step verification on.
This solved my issue (after lots of swearing and hair pulling!). Would have been nice if a I got some sort of warning when updating my Apple ID password that "Hey, you have 2-step enabled. Go make some app-specific passwords or you will lose 5 hours of your life trying to solve this mystery"
Hopefully this may solve yours

Can't sign into iCloud in the pref pane.

I can't sign into icloud in the pref pane. I get a pop up asking me to log in again and under the username and password it says my user or password in invalid. This is kinda curious since I can login with the same user/pass to itunes store and icloud on my ipad. On my wife's user account I was able to set up her icloud with no problems. Any suggestions?

I'm having the same problem. Did you find any solution?
All services connected to my Apple-ID works fine, apart from login into iCloud prefpane.
I tried creating a new user, and that could actually log into my iCloud account. But my main account is having this problem though.

I can't sign into iCloud. It says the maximum number of accounts allowed has been used. iPad is secondhand. How do I clear it of previously used accounts.

I Can't sign into iCloud. I get a message saying that the maximum number of free accounts has been reached on my device. It is a secondhand device that had been wiped. The seller has no idea why this is happening.

Thanks for reply. I can't get find my iPad. I've just looked in App Store to no avail. My daughter in law says I need to sign in to iCloud for that an that's not possible.

She also sent some docs to my kindle app through iTunes. I just tried to update Amazon an got asked for password for her email address instead of mine.

Hi,
In the Finder use the Go Menu whilst holding down the ALT key.
Select the Library that appears when you do this.
Navigate to Containers/com.apple.soagent/Data/Library/Preferences
You will notice that many of the items are Aliases (to the Originals in ~/Library/Preferences).
But there are exceptions.
Delete (Drag to Trash) the com.apple.soagent.plist and com.apple.messageshelper.AccountInfoController.plist
Restart the Mac (I have not worked out is SOAgent launches when the Mac does).
Restart Messages.
If this does not work navigate to ~/Library/Preferences
In here find and Delete com.apple.ids.service.com.apple.madrid.plist
This will need a Restart of the app.
You will be asked Again for your Apple ID

Ever since I updated to the iOS 8.0.2 I can't sign into iCloud or my apple account and I can't open some of the pages

after downloading the new iOS 8.0.2 on my iPad I can't sign into my itunes account or iCloud
struggles to open pages I also have problems with my iPhone 5S since downloading the software
can an some help please

Nellymay,
I would recommend reviewing this article. You may want to consider beginning at step five:
iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
Resolution
If a single application is not responding or stops responding when it opens, you can force it to close.
If the device is unresponsive or if certain controls aren't working as expected, restart your device.
If the device remains unresponsive or does not turn on (or power on), reset your device.
If there is no video or if the screen remains black, verify that the device has enough charge to turn on:
If you are using an iPad, ensure that it's connected to the USB Power Adapter supplied with the device.
Let it charge for at least twenty minutes, then see if it starts normally.
If there is no image on the screen, press the Sleep/Wake button to attempt to wake the device.
If the screen displays a red battery icon, continue charging the device until the battery is fully charged. Learn more about charging iPhone and iPod touch, or iPad.
If the above steps do not resolve the issue, or the if the screen remains black or shows a persistent Apple logo, try restoring with iTunes:
Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane. Learn more aboutrestoring iOS software.
If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try to force the device into recovery mode, and then restore it.
If the above steps do not resolve the issue, contact Apple.
A restore of the device, and setting it up as new will help with the software issues you've described.
Thanks,

I can't sign into iCloud from my iPad

When I try to sign into iCloud on my iPad using the Settings app, I get the message "User name or password is incorrect". I know that's not the case because I just signed into iCloud on my computer using exactly the same user name and password.
Moreover, when this happens the Settings app locks up. I can't dismiss the alert that says the user name or password was incorrect. I have to force quit Settings app to do anything else with it.
I've attached a screen shot of the Settings app and the alert message.

I just figured it out. I had to manually delete my Mobile Me account from my iPad before signing into iCloud. Problem fixed.

I can not sign into icloud on my laptop

I can sign into itunes and access my account on my iphone but I cant sign into icloud on my laptop???? It wont accept my password and I know its correct

What are you trying to set up on your iPhone? ICloud or iTunes Match? The two services are separate and are not the same thing.
