Cannot access iCloud through Safari on iPad?

Greetings from Malawi
iCloud is working on my iMac and according to all settings is actually on with the iPad 2. When I try to get access to icloud through Safari on the iPad it diverts me from icloud.com to icloud.com/ipad_welcome.
I then get suggested to "Set up iCloud on this device" But everything that this tells me to do I have done.
I have managed to upload some documents from iPad to my mac so something is working!
Should I delete account and start again?
What happens if I delete the account? Do i have to get new mail address and reset the desktop as well?
My iMac is on 10.7.3
Thanks in advance

Unlike a computer, https://www.icloud.com isn't accessible from any iPad browser AFAIK and that's almost certainly by design. If you have iCloud set up properly, everything you do on the iPad is already syncing (mail, contacts, Pages, Photo Stream, etc.).
You can also make any adjustments to your iCloud settings on the iPad. Settings > iCloud...
So there doesn't seem to be a need to access iCloud via Safari (or any web browser) from the iPad.
Others may figure out a work-around, but I'm not sure what it would accomplish.
I can see the need on a computer...particularly if you don't have yours with you and you want to access your mail or contacts...but it seems redundant to do it on the iPad.
Was there a reason you needed to have access with Safari?

  • Cannot access iCloud on my iPad

    i cannot access icloud on my ipad 3

    I do not understand why that is the case.  The iPad has been touted as a stand alone device.  However, for these instances it is still tethered to a computer.  If I only had an iPad/iPhone and I want to share a calendar with my wife to her iPad/iPhone, I would still have to have a PC to access iCloud.com in order to share the calendar between multiple users.  There is no way to set up the share on the mobile devices.  That does not make sense to me.

  • HT204053 I just changed my AppleI D and password and now I cannot access icloud on my phone or ipad.

    Due to unexplained charges to my itunes account I just changed the email address and password associated with the account.  Now I cannot access icloud on my iphone 4s or on my ipad. Help!?

    To change your iCloud ID, go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then sign back in with the new ID.  This deletes the account and your iCloud data from your device, but not from iCloud.  Provided you are signing back into the same account, your iCloud data will reappear on your device when you sign back in.
    To avoid losing photo stream photos, save them to your camera roll (if not already there) before deleting the account.  To do this, open your my photo stream album, tap Edit, tap the photos, tap Share, then tap Save to Camera Roll.

    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.
     Cheers, Tom
    Tap Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendar and delete your email account.
    Then tap Settings > Safari > and Tap Clear History and Clear Cookies and Data.
    Now tap Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendar and re-enter your email account credentials.

  • Cannot send mail through Hotmail on iPad

    Cannot send mail through Hotmail on iPad, it's ok through bigpond though. I have tried deleting account and shutdowns x 2 but still nothing.
    The message which appears is telling me the user name or password "SMTP:           @[email protected]" is incorrect.
    Thanks, Ron

    Yahoo's been having persistently random issues for months. You can try just waiting it out, or delete and readd your yahoo account. When my accounts were affected I just used webmail to access my yahoo accounts until it cleared up.
    Chances are it's all on their end and really all you can do is wait it out.

  • Cannot use icloud tab option on ipad and iphone as the open tabs are not listed.

    cannot use icloud tab option on ipad and iphone as the open tabs are not listed.

    just checked everything through and this is deffinately the public beta of iCloud as it simlily doesnt come up in the  settings of ipad or iphone. However the current firmware i am using isnt an itunes download, as i have downgraded and all itunes synced apps onto both the iPad and iphone crash when i open them, is this because i have downloaded the firmware from a third party? i have treble checked that the firmware is NOT hacked and is just a host's official apple firmware, so i cannot understand why this problem is occuring?

  • Cannot access iCloud because I don't have the primary email and password I originally set it up with. Is there any way to remove this primary username and password without either the email address and the password?

    How do I delete an old iCloud username and password. I have neither of them anymore and cannot access icloud to change settings. Set up a second username and password but icloud still won't rcognize the my birthdate and security questions answers I've answed. hope somebody else has had this problem. Thanks

    If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact Apple ID Support, upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
    The operator will take you through some steps you may have already tried, however they need to be sure they have exhausted all usual approaches before trying to reset your account, so you should try to be helpful and show patience with the procedure.
    The operator will need to verify they are speaking to the account holder and may ask you some questions that only the account holder could know, and you will need to answer them if the process is to proceed.
    Once the operator has verified your identity they will send a message through to your device which contains an alpha numeric code, which you will need to read back to them.
    Once this has been completed they will send an email to your iCloud email address after a period of 24 hours, so you should check that mail is enabled in your devices iCloud settings.
    Upon receipt of the email, use the reset link provided to reset your password, after which you should be able to make the adjustments to iCloud that you wish to do.

    What a crappy design. This is where Android is so much better. It seems to me like you have no control over your iPhone. It does whatever Apple has designed it to do without asking you first. On Android you can actually go in see all folders, document files, photo files etc and you have so much more control of everything. Apple s..cks!

  • I cannot access my emails on my ipad,

    I cannot access my emails on my ipad, even though all data is entered correctly. Message still appears..... the mail server pop.orangehome.co.uk is not responding. Verify that you have entered the correct account info into Mail settings. I have!!!!

    However according the description I have posted in my previous reply you should be setting POP
    Orange Home
    tap Settings
    tap on Mail, Contacts, Calendars
    tap Add Account
    tap other
    tap Add Mail Account
    enter your account information and then tap save
    please note: that the username is everything after the @ in the customers emails address
    on the next page displayed you must type in the settings as shown for Incoming host name, Username, and Outgoing Host Name Make sure that at the top of the page POP is highlighted blue, then tap save the iPhone will then attempt to verify the POP account information
    as standard the iPhone will attempt to set up the email account using SSL security Orange home email doesn't use this so the iPhone will prompt you with this message tap yes to set up without SSL
    please be patient as it may take a few minuets for the iPhone to get to this point
    the iPhone will then attempt to verify the POP account information again
    In some circumstances the iPhone may ask you if you wish to connect without using SSL again Simply tap yes to continue Again please be patient as this process may take a while
    the iPhone will then attempt to verify the POP account information again
    once the iPhone has verified the POP settings it will briefly tick all of the information fields
    then you should be able to see the account at the top of the screen and email should be ready to use
    you now need to change the port number to 25 tap on the newly created account as shown above
    tap on the SMTP under the Outgoing Mail Server
    tap on the box under the Primary Server
    the Server Port number needs to be changed to 25 as shown above tap on the Server Port to change this
    If the email still doesn't send, press the home button and the on/off button together to reset

  • Cannot access icloud, cannot verify account

    With my current apple activie and able to log in to itunes and other apple website, I cannot access icloud with error message "check your email xxx for instructions on how to verify your account.  But checking email, no email was sent.

    Hey Edgew7,
    Thanks for the question. The following resource may provide a solution:
    iOS 7: If you're asked for the password to your previous Apple ID when signing out of iCloud
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts5223
    3. Change your Apple ID temporarily
    If signing out and back in to iMessage or FaceTime didn't work, try these steps:
    1. Change your Apple ID to the Apple ID you used previously. You shouldn't need to verify the email address.
    2. Tap Settings > iCloud and try to sign out.
    3. Change your Apple ID to the new email address that you want to use. You'll need to verify the email address.
    4. Tap Settings > iCloud and sign in with the new Apple ID.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.
