    I cannot log into iCloud using my Apple username and password.  I keep getting an error message that states "CANNOT SIGN UP - The Apple ID is valid but is not an iCloud account."  How do I fix this?

    You are getting this message because you are attempting to create an iCloud account on a PC.  You can only create iCloud account on an iOS device (iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch) running iOS 5 or higher, or on a Mac running OS X Lion (10.7.2) or higher.  After creating your account on one of these devices you will then be able to sign into the account on your PC.

  • Is there a way to factory unlock my iPhone legally from Apple?

    I bought my iPhone in Japan and now I am returning to India. I would like to do this legally. Does apple not support factory unlock at a price?

    As is stated on this forum many times a day, Apple cannot unlock an iPhone without the authority of the network to which it is locked.
    You need to contact the network in Japan that your iPhone is locked to and ask them if they allow unlocking of their phones, and if so, what the process is.
    If they allow it, they will send the unlocking authorisation to Apple and the unlock will be done via iTunes.
    Again... Apple cannot do the unlocking without the network giving them permission.

  • I cannot unlock my iPhone 4S

    Hey there, I have a huge problem.
    I cannot unlock my iPhone 4S, because I cannot slide. The touchscreen works though, I do can pull up the control center or the upper thing where you can see all the messages you got and so, but when I try to tap on something on there, nothing happens. The assistent touch also works.
    Siri doesn't work even though my home button is working.
    I cannot turn off my phone, because the upper button is broken.
    My phone neither fell down nor knocked against something or things like that, it happened pretty much out of the nowhere.
    What is wrong and what can I do?
    I hope you could understand this, I am from Germany so I do not know all the English words.
    Thank you!

    Hi Marie,
    Do you have a backup of your phone on iTunes? Can you try to Restore the phone to the backup. It is a 50/50 chance and it will possibly fix any software related issues.
    Follow these steps to restore your phone from backup using iTunes:
    Connect your iOS device to the computer that has your backup.
    Make sure this computer has the latest version of iTunes.
    Choose File > Devices > Restore from Back up.
    If you're using iTunes 10.7 or earlier, right-click the device from the list and choose Restore from Backup.
    Hope this is of some assistance.

  • HT1206 I buy apps in my iPhone using different Apple IDs. Which Apple ID should I use to authorize the computer when synchronizing iPhone with iTunes?

    I buy apps in my iPhone using different Apple ID. Which Apple ID should I use to authorize the computer when sync iPhone with iTunes?

    Hi again,
    After a little further research, it appears that you would need to create separate iTunes libraries in order to be able to continue to purchase and download previously purchased items on the same computer, for two different Apple IDs. Sorry - but my husband and I have had the library we sync with authorized for so long, that we have not run into this issue, but it appears that you will get an warning when you try to authorize the second ID on the same computer, indicating that another ID is already associated with it.
    So, you will probably have to set up separate iTunes libraries for each ID:

    Sorry for any confusion - hope this helps!

    Apart from the lock button problem in iphone 5 the display brightness suddenly goes blank and becomes normal after locking and unlocking the iphone. The Apple service centre in India is denying to service the iphone as it was purchase in USA even though the iphone is in warranty.

    iPhones do not have an international warranty.  Warranty is valid only for the country of purchase.  This is most likely because different countries require different iPhone models.  Not reasonable to expect all countries to maintain stock for all models.

    Why do Orange and EE blame Apple for the delays in unlocking my iPhone. 10 months now. What is the exact process that these companies have to go through to unlock an iPhone and is Apple in any way to blame for the delays.
    Indeed how long does Apple take to carry out its part of the process. 
    It seems to me that Orange are just trying to stall me despite the fact that I am out of contract with them now.  I originally paid to have the phone unlocked back last November.  This was never done. 
    I have phoned them numerous times over the last two months but still they haven't done it.  Can anyone advise me and has anyone had similar problems with them.
    Thanks

    I certainly understand that only Orange can unlock my phone.  My annoyance is that they blame Apple so I am keen to know what exactly is Apple's involvement. 
    I presume that Orange have to tell Apple that the phone has been authorised for unlocking by Orange and that Apple then notes that in some way on iTunes so that the user can then complete the process on iTunes. 
    What I would like to know is how much time Apples part in this process takes.
    I would also like to make contact with others who have had similar problems.
    Many thanks

    You can't share with other devices if you are using different Apple ID's and iTunes account on them. You can only share if you use the same ID.

    Apple doesn't monitor here. Best we can do is to push you to contact Apple directly.

    You do not. You do this:
    Connect the iOS device to your computer and try to make a backup
    iOS: How to back up
    Then restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased. Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.
    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

    For how to restore:

    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: How to back up    
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
