Error 403 in icloud

who to be fixed error 403 in icloud

I'm a bit new to iCloud and shared calendars, but here is a solution that seemed ot work. Oddly it worked by NOT doing something that seemed like it should be done...
I set up a series of shared calendars for our office of 4 and I gave all 4 of us read and write ability for these calendars. I was frustrated because I was creating group events, inviting the group in the "Add invitees" area, which seemed logical, and would then get the pesky Error 403. Yet dispite the error the test events were still propigating through iCloud and into the other iCals as I had wanted. Most of my team is not very computer literate, so simply ignoring the errors were not going to work. I needed to get rid of them.
However, through much wasted time and over 14 test events, through three computers, I learned if I DID NOT invite the memebers of the shared calendar in the "Add Invitees" area (via their e-mail address) I DID NOT get Error 403 any more. Yeah! And the calendar events I wanted them to have DID show up on their calendars as I hoped. All changes were pushed through icloud, down into each of our local iCals.
So in short the solution seems to be, share your iCloud calendar with others on your team, but DO NOT invite them to an event as an attendee (beacuse they will see it as a shared person anyhow).  if they are on the shared list AND secondarily invited, then you get Error 403.  if they are on the shared list and NOT invited via e-mail, the duplication that causes Error 403 seems to go away. They get the event, but not the error. 
I'm curious if anyone else can duplicate this solution? or if I have just deceived myself some how...

  • Error 403 when I try to connect to iCloud

    I recently bought a used iphone 4 (iOS 7.0.4) and when I try to connect this iphone to icloud with my apple username and password, I get an error 403 (I haven't got any icloud account before). When I try to create a new icloud account, It tells me that it's impossible and that this iphone is not more allowed to create a icloud free account. How can I do to create a new icloud account?
    thanks

    They told me that my Iphone has reached the maximum number of iCloud accounts creations, 3 as you wrote. But I spoke to a very kind guy from the Apple assistance and after two long calls for trying to find wherefrom my problem was, he contacted Apple engineers and they allowed me to create one more icloud account with my iphone.
    So, for others who got this 403 error, it means that your ID is an Apple ID but not An iCloud ID and that you cannot create a iCloud account ... unless if you phone them maybe.
    Many thanks to Apple assistance.

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    Are you trying to create a new ID, how many ID's have you created already on that device.

  • What is error 403 when trying to set up iCloud on my iPhone under settings-iCloud?

    I already added my Apple ID on my phone but when trying to open my iCloud account it asks me for my Apple ID and when I enter it it says error 403, you need to know the phone it is already activated so I am not on the first setup menu. Please help...

    Device reached the limit of three free icloud accounts that Apple allows to be created on one device. Need to use another Apple device to create new account. Still can use icloud accounts but can't create new one.

    Error: com.apple.appleaccount error 403
    Recreate Error: On a Iphone/Ipad device that has "already" created the maximum of 3 per device Apple limit of ICloud account creation attempt to create or login to ICloud service tab in Settings. You will be presented with "com.apple.appleaccount error 403" which does not tell the laymen anything useful.
    Cause: IOS 7 reports a "best guess" error instead of detailed error explanation.
    How To Resolve Error: Find a device that has not been used to create an ICloud account the maximum 3 times and use it to create the ICloud account by logging into the Settings/ICloud tab with the Apple ID you want a ICloud account created for.
    Keep in mind this will use up one of the three lifetime allowed ICloud account creations allowed by Apple on that device.
    Also per support: If an existing account is logged into the ICloud service. A. Backup phone using iTunes on a mac/pc. B. At bottome of Settings/ICloud Delete the account "AND" all the user date from the phone. It will offer the Delete all data option. The reason for Deletion(and is why we backed up on a pc vs. the cloud) is when you create the new ICloud account it will backup all of the Device owners information to the wrong persons account.
    Once you have created the new ICloud account log into that account on device that was presenting error: "com.apple.appleaccount error 403" it should allow the ICloud login.
    Once you have verified the "device with error" is ICloud functional delete the ICloud account from the device used to seed the ICloud account and delete again all user data from cloud. Restore the recently created mac/pc Itunes locally created backup to the phone and then go to Settings/ICloud and login with the device owners Apple ID and password and verify your backup to the ICloud settings and Eureka! your done.
    It took less time to do that for me to type this lol.

  • How to sing in into icloud? What does it mean error 403?

    How can i sing in into icloud it says error 403 what does it mean? What is the solution for this problem? Waiting for an aswer please!

    Well, I admit that I am new with the iCloud and iPhone, but I would not know how to set up "Forwarding" The email shows the intended recipients email address. It does not show any other recipient that it could be forwarded to. But I just tested by emailing another of my accounts. then I opened the email I just sent and "Forwarded" it to another and that arrow showed up on the sent email. Funny thing is I can't remember forwarding the one I was asking about on here. Well Thanks

    Calendar is locked on my MAC.
    I keep getting the message" The server responded with an error: Access to icloud is not permitted. The server responded 403 to oepration caldavmigrate to server queueable operation."
    How do I recify?

    We previously had a similar issue when migrating multiple accounts from MobileMe to iCloud.  The issue was resolved by disabling and then enabling iCal sync through iCloud on our iMacs in System Preferences.
    Always backup your calendar before troubleshooting (File > Export > iCal Archive).
    The following steps are roughly from a Apple Support Community discussion.
    Open iCloud in System Preferences.
    Switch off (uncheck) iCal sync in iCloud System Preferences pane.
    Backup iCal before doing this. You will need to remove calendar data.
    Open iCal and verify the iCloud account is removed in the iCal preferences under accounts.
    Close iCal, reopen System Preference and switch on (check) iCal sync in iCloud System Preferences pane.
    Reopen iCal and verify the iCloud account is enabled in the iCal preferences under accounts.
    At this point if the problem persists you might try completely signing out of iCloud and then signing back in. But remember to backup all related data (iCal, Contacts, Mail, Photostream, etc) before turning off iCloud sync!

  • After I replaced my iphone 5s, I restarted icloud on my mac. Now ical doesn't work I get error 403

    I got a new iphone.  Changed from an iphone 5 to iphone 5s.  I had trouble with the sync, and in the midst of it I signed out of icloud on my mac.  It told me it would delete everything from my mac.  I signed out anyway.  Now that I've signed back on, I cannot use my ical app.  I get an error "403" to operation CalDAVMigrateToServeQueueableOperation and the ical locks up and I have to force quit.  I have tried to turn calendar off in settings, but it does not help.  I can't find any help on the support pages on this.  Seems people have problems like this, but there is no fix. The calendar on my new iphone is working, although, it's been over a week and it has still not fully restored my whole backup of the phone (32gig).  Could that be part of the problem?  I have been using my icloud calendar on my mac in the mean time, but I would like ical to work.

    Hi mgarcia3,
    If you are having an issue with
    As someone who uses my iPhone almost constantly I can certainly understand how you would be upset to have it not be able to even turn on. Let's see if we can get you back up and running.
    I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article - 
    iOS: Not responding or does not turn on - Apple Support
    Be sure to note the last step -
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, contact Apple.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,

    Contact whoever you got it from. If they can't or won't remove the lock, get your money back. If they won't do that, or you can't contact them, turn it over to the police. It's probably stolen.
    There is no way to bypass the activation lock.
