How do I set up a new iCloud account separate for my iphone and ipad?

I have an old iCloud account for my iphone and when I bought an ipad last year I used the same iCloud account. I now have no storage left and my iphone won't back up. I want to upgrade my iphone soon but don't want to lose all my photos, contacts, etc.
I have spent the last hour trying to create a new iCloud account so I have two separate ones for my iphone and iCloud, to no avail. Apple don't seem to have any information I submit and I am just going round in circles updating passwords! And re-enters new account details. I haven't received an email registering my new iCloud account.
Can anyone help! Can I create two iCloud accounts? Why can't i! Even though I am using two separate email addresses.

If it's stuck on verifying it's because she never responded to the verification email that Apple should have sent to the primary email address she used for the Apple ID she set it up with. She should check her inbox and spam/junk folder for this email and click on the Verify Now link to verify the account. If the email isn't there, she can go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage your Apple ID, sign in, click on Name, ID and Email addresses on the left, then to the right click Resend under her Primary Email Address to resend the verification email.
Or, you can just delete the account (which is a misnomer since until verified the account isn't really created).

How do i update to a new icloud email address in my iphone

I have had an old iCloud account with an old email that i dont use anymore. So i lost my password and it won't let me in to that account to delete it. So now my iphone and icloud is still useing the old email address and i cant change it or delete it since i cant delete the sccount at all. it is so frustation that my iphone doesnt let you put the correct email address then password. It comes already with the old email adress and ask for the password in which i have no idea what the password is.

So FYI, if it's any of your business lizdance40. One thing is, if your not to give me Advise on my problem then why waste my time responding.
So here is the details.
I got an iCloud account a year ago and used all same info on my Apple ID. So my email account got hacked into about 8 months ago and I decided to get a new email on Gmail. Old one was a yahoo email. So as I tried changing everything over like iCloud and Apple ID I got a message on my iPhone to enter my password. We'll I did and it wouldn't work at all. So I tried to have the password email it to my old email account that I canceled. So I got in to it and no email was sent to that account at all. Then I went to change it all in iCloud and it asked me to answer questions to reset my password. The first question was my birthdate. I filled it in and it didn't let me in saying it was invaded date. So I informed the genus bar and they said to cancel that account because it sounds like it has been hacked into. So I have been trying to and add another one to my phone it it will not let me now. So there lizdance40. Now can you help me or tell me how stupid I am only?

New iCloud setup with Mac and iPhone

I just setup iCloud for both my Mac and iPhone and still my gmail does not update between the two. I used the setup for both as shown on the Apple site. I thought this was supposed to be easy. Any ideas as to what I might be missing?

I would have thought that the Apple products would deconflict the message traffic from the email accounts, via iCloud.
I'm afraid you thought wrong. Modern email accounts do not work like that. Email messages, and the status of those messages is stored on the email server. If you setup the same IMAP account on numerous devices, the email is stored on the server and each email client reads the status of the messages from the server. Keeping things "in sync" is a function of the email server, not the email client.
I was under the assumption they were innovative enough to think about using their own products to help users manage ALL email, through Mail and iCloud, on several devices.
Since Apple do not have control over Google's mail servers (or anyone else's, apart from their own), it is not technically possible for them to do what you are asking. Creating a whole new, Apple-only proprietary email protocol would not be innovative at all, when the IMAP email standard already exists and is used everywhere.
As already mentioned, if you want to keep a Google Mail account in sync across multiple devices and computers, you use the facilities that Google provides for doing so i.e. their IMAP (or Exchange) email servers.
If you want to keep an Apple iCloud (@me.com) email account in sync across multiple devices and computers, you use the facilities that Apple provides for doing so i.e the iCloud IMAP email server.
Same applies to Hotmail email accounts, or Yahoo! Email account. Email clients do not keep email in sync - the server does.

How do I copy my iCloud contacts to my map contacts

Who can help me?

The contacts that show in the Bookmarks window of Maps are the same ones that show in the Contacts application. I'm not sure I understand your question.

How do you make the icloud contacts folder the default contacts

I have set up iCloud Contacts on my PC running Windpws 7, with MS Office 2010. Whenever I add a name in an email, it goes and looks for that name in my old contacts foler, not the new iCloud folder that was created when I added iCloud. How do I get Outlook to default to the new iCloud contacts?

Outlook will not use a subscribed folder (unless it is from MS Exchange) as the default folder, instead you should change the Outlook search parameters to look in the iCloud folders.
Here are the directions to do that.

HT204053 If I add a new iCloud account to my iPhone 5, will I be "locked out" because I'm using a new Apple ID to do it? Do I have to use a new Apple ID to create a new iCloud account? Want to separate calendars/contacts for 2 iPhones now using 1 iCloud a

If my husband add a new iCloud account to his iPhone 5, will he be "locked out" because he's using a new Apple ID to do it? Does he have to use a new Apple ID to create a new iCloud account? He set up his phone using my Apple ID because we didn't know any better. Now we want to separate calendars/contacts, but are afraid of the 90-day lockout.

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
You can change the Apple ID without any problem. On his device, go to Settings > iCloud > Delete account and login with his Apple ID so he'll get his information. iCloud needs an Apple ID, so if he hasn't got one, he must create an Apple ID > http://appleid.apple.com
When you delete the iCloud account, all the information will be deleted, so I recommend you to turn off each service before deleting iCloud

ICloud Contacts on iPad are Not the Same as the local Contacts on my iPhone..how can i put all my Contacts from iPhone into iCloud?

I want to have all my local iPhone Contacts in the cloud to have them also on my iPad.
iCloud only saved 36 from 225 total Contacts. My IPhone Contacts are saved on the iPhone itself, but how can I Transfer them into the cloud?

The Mac uses Mac OS X and iDevices use iOS. These are two different operating systems and the apps must be written for each operating system specifically, even when the apps go by the same name, such as the iWork apps, they are two ifferent versions of the same app for the two different platforms.
So, as an example, Safari has been written for three different operating systems, Mac OS X, iOS and Windows. And the Safari apps, as similar as they are visually, are not interchangeable for the different platforms.

With the new iCloud I now get all of my wife's contacts on my iPhone. Is there a way to restore just my old contacts to my phone?

Only if a backup of the iPhone with all that data on it exists. If one does, restore the iPhone using that backup.

Setting up a new icloud account on iphone

I have an iphone that was previously my wife's and it still has her icloud on it. I just created an apple id, but I can't figure out how to get a new icloud account that is no longer synced with my wife's devices.

Hi 500mphnovel,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
If you've just created a new Apple ID, that email address can be used for your iCloud account. All you have to do is sign out of your wife's iCloud account, and sign in with your new Apple ID and password.
Here are a few articles that will explain this:
Using your Apple ID for Apple services
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4895
The "Frequently Asked Questions" section of this article may be relevant for you.
Apple ID: What to do after you change your Apple ID
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5796?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
iCloud: Change iCloud feature settings
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2613
Before you delete your wife's iCloud account from your iPhone, turn off each of the features ( contacts, calendars, etc. ) and when prompted, choose to "Keep on My iPhone" if you wish to keep that information. If don't want or need any of this, then skip down to the selection below to delete the iCloud account completely.
Turn iCloud features off
On your iOS device’s Home screen, go to Settings > iCloud, then tap to turn off iCloud features.
When you turn off a feature, you’re asked whether you want your device to keep a copy of your information stored in iCloud for that feature.
Once you have saved the contacts, calendars, etc. that you want from the current iCloud account on your iPhone, then you can delete the current iCloud account from your device.
Turn off iCloud completely
On your iOS device’s Home screen, go to Settings > iCloud, then at the bottom of the screen, tap Delete Account.
At this point, I would suggest turning off the phone, and restarting it. Then, tap on Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars. Tap on Add Account. Tap iCloud. Now type in your new Apple ID email address and password.
Have a great day!

Installing Maverick on my Mac lost almost all of the calendar entries. They are still on my iPhone and new entries move freely to both devices via iCloud. How do I get the entries from my iPhone to iCloud without losing them from iPhone?

Like many others after I installed Maverick I found that all the calendar history has been lost and most of the forward info has also been lost. Also in order to get calendar, contacts and notes to sync with the iPhone I have had to move to iCloud. Contacts and notes sync fine. new calendar entries sync ok. My iPhone has all the calendar entries that were on the Mac before I installed Maverick. So far iCloud has not overwritten them nor have they synced onto iCloud.
How can I get all the entries from my iPhone onto iCloud, without losing the only copy of my calendar from my iPhone?
Thanks Apple for deciding to take over my privacy. I do not want this data stored on a US based server. Fortunately Mail still syncs via my own email provider. I guess Apple will find a way to stop that soon too!

Greetings Nefertiti72,
It seems you are experiencing an issue with contact syncing and management. It seems you've removed an email account which contained a number of contacts that are not associated with your iCloud account. I have linked to a knowledge base article which provides more information about iCloud contacts syncing:
Get help using iCloud Contacts - Apple Support
Learn what to do if you’re having issues using iCloud Contacts. For example, you might make changes to Contacts that don't update across all of your devices.
You may want to consider importing the contacts from the email account you removed. You can do it easily by following the steps in this article:
iCloud: Import a vCard
You can import an electronic business card, also called a vCard, into iCloud Contacts. If the vCard contains contact information for more than one person, each contact becomes a separate entry.
In iCloud Contacts, choose Import vCard from the Action pop-up menu , which appears at the bottom of the All Contacts list or a list of group contacts
Select a vCard to import.
The contacts from the vCard are added to the All Contacts group in Contacts. You can add the contacts to any other group by dragging them to the desired group.
Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.
Best,

How can I remove my new iCloud e-mail and return my MS Outlook Contacts to my PC?

Greetings all,
Just got a new iPhone 5S. Wanted to backup 4s to iCloud so I entered iCloud setup. In going through the iCloud set up process I created an iCloud e-mail account despite having no need for one. It appeared as if it was a necessity ?, I use MS Outlook 2010 for e-mail. iCloud set up requested I create an iCloud e-mail, so i did. I do not need an iCloud e-mail. In the process of setting up the new iCloud e-mail, setup removed all my contacts from Outlook and sent them to the iCloud e-mail account, I assumed that the contacts would be copied, not moved. I no longer have any contacts in Outlook. I would like to remove the new e-mail account from iCloud and ensure that the associated contacts are returned to my PC properly. All the iCloud e-mail help areas I have looked through have not provided any guidance on this issue. Perhpas I only went down ten layers of info and this info is in the 15th layer down? Thanks for any guidance, Apple/PC folks. Craig

This is Craig 237B,
I just found the contacts for my Outlook account hidden in an iCloud folder in Outlook.
I still would like advice to remove my new iCloud e-mail and return Outlook to it's previous state, if someone knows this?
Thanks
Craig
