Error "server with secure communication unavailable" when adding iCloud account to iCal

I have set up iCloud and activated the Calendars option, but can see iCloud in iCal. Whenever I try to manually add an iCloud account from the iCal preferences I get an error "Server with secure communication unavailable" and it won't add the iCloud account.
Does anybody have a soluton for this issue?

Hi I think I have tried this correctly but it just doesn't work for me I am replacing with:

  • Server with secure communication unavailable?

    When I try to sync my iCal with my Gmail account, iCal gives me an error that says "Server with secure communication unavailable"
    My accounts were linked just fine before and this just started up one day.
    Any thoughts?

    I get the same error except when I try to add my MobileMe account.  I just upgraded my Air with Lion 10.7.2.  Anyone know how to pull my MobileMe calendars back onto Lion?

  • HT2513 "Server with Secure communication unavailable"

    Am trying to set up my Google Calendar with ICal, and keep getting this message . . . with no ideas on what to do about it.  Isn't the Google server secure? What would I have to do with that?
    Thanks!

  • When I access a windows files server with the mac I am adding .apple (hidden files). How can I prevent this.

    When I access a windows files server with the mac I am adding .apple (hidden files). How can I prevent this?

    Look for a program called BlueHarvest. I'm not sure if it still works with Mountain Lion.
    I believe your file server can be set up to handle the metadata files, but I suppose that would depend on the Server software and your IT staff.

    Dear sirs,
    Could you please help me on my problem with my apple ID

    My account have 50$ and still didn't buy anything

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.

  • HT201318 Need help with being double charged on my icloud account when purchasing extra storage for my ipad

    Need help with being double charged on my icloud account when purchasing extra storage for my ipad?

    I had this same problem on my 4S. I fixed it by restoring the phone to factory defaults. Previously, I had taken the additional step of restoring from backup but, as soon as I did, the problem returned. The fix is a hassle as I now have to reinstall my apps but at least I can manage mail on the phone.
    The problem also occurred on my iPad2 but I'm not restoring it as it's a serious hassle (see above) and I don't actually read much mail on the device.
    As a side note, I noticed incredibly high load averages (5+ processes for 1, 5, and 15 minutes; 12+ for 1 and 5 minutes at one point) as well as CPU usage that didn't drop below 15% (apparently all user processes, system seemed to be about normal). As could be expected, this also lead to incredibly rapid battery depletion.
    I can't tell what processes were hogging the CPU as neither of my devices are jailbroken and Apple doesn't seem to like 'top' much.

  • Can I have multiple iPhones with unique back ups using one icloud account?

    Hello forum users,
    Can I have multiple iPhones with unique back ups using one icloud account?
    I would like to back up and restore 4 different iPhones, 1 iPad, a MacBook and 1 MacBook Pro using the same single iCloud account.
    If so, how is this done?
    Many thanks

    Sharing an iCloud account between two devices can be done without causing issues with iMessage and FaceTime, just go into Settings for each of these functions and designate separate points of contact (i.e. phone number only, or phone number and unique email address).  While that works, you'll then face the problem where a phone call to one iPhone will ring both if on the same Wi-Fi network -- but again, that can be avoided by changing each phone's settings.
    Rather than do all that, don't fight it -- use separate IDs for iCloud.  You can still use a common ID for iTunes purchases (the ID for purchases and iCloud do not have to be the same) or you can use Family Sharing to share purchases from a primary Apple account.

  • Hello guys! i just wanted to asked to anyone of you if you'll receive a notification when your icloud account was removed into your apple device? my iphone 4 Ios7 was stole 3 days before.. please help thank you!

    hello guys! i just wanted to asked to anyone of you if you'll receive a notification when your icloud account was removed into your apple device? my iphone 4 Ios7 was stole 3 days before.. please help thank you!

    1.  you may have to take it in to Apple and get an out of warranty iphone for $199.
    2.  you can get your information from a backup of your phone.  you do have a backup of your phone right either in iTunes or icloud.  If you don't then your answer will be no.

  • "The Connection to Microsoft Exchange is unavailable" when adding second Exchange account to Outlook 2013

    I have a problem that I've found to be typical, just haven't found anything that describes my exact problem.
    I'm having trouble adding a second Exchange 2010 server account to Outlook 2013 in one of the computers of the domain. Outlook 2013 will complain with "The Connection to Microsoft Exchange is unavailable. Outlook must be online or connected to complete
    this action".
    I've Googled and found many threads with the same error... however most of those seem to be either a problem with the server, or the Global Catalog in Active Directory, or the "connection method" (I've tried all found solutions to no avail).
    This is not the case, since the first account is added with absolutely no problem. It can send and receive and I can delete the outlook profile and recreate it and it'll give no problems. I have this problem only when adding a second account.
    This is a fresh Windows 8.1 install with an up-to-date Outlook 2013. I have other computers in the same domain and network, with the same setup (Win 8.1 + Outlook 2013) configured with two exchange accounts with no problem.
    There are no connectivity problems, I can access that same account through OWA and in other computers on the network... the Global Catalog seems to be fine (shows two active DCs, which is correct).
    I've tried deleting and recreating the outlook profiles, repairing the outlook installation, even deleting all outlook files in AppData and letting it recreate them, with no success.
    Any hints of what could be going on?
    Before I speak, I have something important to say.

    Hi Javier,
    Thank you for the update.
    I have tested on my lab and get following result.
    Lab: Exchange 2010, CAS Array (CAS01+CAS02), MBX01, DC
    Type Server Field
    Check name result
    Changed Server Field
    CAS01.domain.com
    Yes
    CASArray.domain.com
    CASArray.domain.com
    Yes
    CASArray.domain.com
    DC.domain.com
    Yes
    CASArray.domain.com
    MBX01.domain.com
    No
    "The Connection to Microsoft Exchange is unavailable"
    Based on my knowledge, the reason why inputing DC FQDN in the Server Field fixes this issue is that Outlook performs AD Lookup and finds the account configuration from AD, then back the CAS Array FQDN in the Server Field  instead of DC FQDN.
    Exchange 2010 is different from Exchange 2013, if you are using Exchange 2013, we need to input MailboxServerGUID.domain.com into Server Field.
    If there is anything I’ve misunderstood, please don’t hesitate to let me know.

  • Using MBSA 2.2 getting error 'Cannot load security CAB file" when attempting to scan any remote systems

    Could scan all remote servers previously from same sources and version.  Replaced/updated all cabs and other files associated (C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\MBSA\Cache) with no change.  Removed/re-installed
    MBSA 2.2 with not effect.
    Local scans appear to function fine, but do not wish to download MBSA on EVERY system we need to scan.
    Settings for remote scan are: Check for security updates>Configure computers for Microsoft
    Update and scanning prerequisites>Advanced Update Services
    options:>Scan using
    Microsoft Update only
    Have attempted from different systems/OS's, with same results.  Checked firewall for any blocked traffic from both host and scanner, no entries.
    Checked Technet/blogged for about two hours, without any positive results. Please advise/assist.

    Thank you for sending this to the MBSA forums!
    If you haven't already, you may want to check the MBSA FAQ located here:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/security/cc184922 specifically under the sections titled, "How can I scan a computer that is protected by a firewall" (to resolve potential DCOM connectivity issues), and "When attempting to scan a remote machine,
    why do I see the error 'Cannot deploy security metadata?"
    This is also a very misleading error message since the problem could be due to connectivity to the target (client) machines - nothing relating to the CAB file.  In any circumstance, you should not need to install MBSA on all of the target machines to
    successfully assess their security state. 
    Possible solutions include
    Confirm the latest WUA client is installed on all target machines (with the files you've already placed in the cache directory, you can simply check the scan option to "Configure computers for Microsoft
    Update and scanning prerequisites" - which will update and re-register each target machine with the latest WUA client and the ability to respond to requests from MBSA.
    Check whether the target machines have limited disk space (unlikely)
    Check DCOM settings on both the server - but more likely due to the failure to remotely scan - the target machines.
    Change the scan options to further troubleshoot.  Specifically, 'Check for security updates' option uses a DCOM connection to the target WUA client while the other scan settings 'Check for weak passwords, etc." use specific UDP/TCP ports as indicated
    in the System Requirements section of the MBSA help file and the MBSA FAQ.  Also use the 'Advanced Update Services options' to determine whether WSUS connectivity may be at issue.
    Please let me know if that helps.

  • Trouble with length of measure when adding tracks

    I notice sometimes when im starting or doing a project, particularly when adding piano or keyboard tracks, when I go to insert a note, it automatically inserts a note that is like 100000 miles long and extends indefinately even if as expand the track pane. other times this is not a problem at all, which leads me to believe its likely theres some magic button someplace im overlooking time and time again... help!

    I'd guess there may be a faulty key on your keyboard - a MIDI note message consists basically of Note On, Note number (pitch), Velocity value and then Note Off (possibly other values for poly pressure for example - not often used), so it looks like there's a Note On and no Note Off.

  • Error message: legal apple id, but not an iCloud account

    I would like to share fotos with a friend who has only a windows-pc. He created an apple-id account, downloaded and installed iCloud for windows. But when he wants to start the program he gets the error-message: your apple-id is legal, but it is not an iCloud-account. He can not start the program. Is there a simple resolution?

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    You have to log in iCloud on an iPhone, iPod touch, iPad or Mac first before being able to use iCloud on your PC. See > http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup
    If you haven't got an iPhone, iPod touch, iPad or Mac, you can't use iCloud

  • What do I do when my iCloud account is not the same as my Apple ID? And I do not have access to the e-mail address that the iCloud account is set-up under.

    How do I get access to the iCloud account to remove/change it on my phone to match my Apple ID?
    iPhone 4, trying to access iCloud
    cannot remember password
    do not have access to the e-mail that the iCloud account is created under
    have an Apple ID, it is a different e-mail than the iCloud account.
    Went to store and the person there tried a number of things. I tried all manners of possible passwords as well.
    End game: Just want to have an iCloud account I can use on my iPhone.

    Do the following:
    Make sure you are signed into iMessage and FaceTime with your current ID.  If they are signed into the old ID, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and Settings>FaceTime, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with your current ID.
    Then temporarily recreate the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  (You should not have to verify the old email account so it doesn’t matter if you no longer have access to it.)  Now go to Settings>iCloud, turn off Find My iDevice and enter your current password when prompted (even though it prompts you for the password for your old ID).  Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Sign Out (or Delete Account if you are not running iOS 8) and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign back in with your current iCloud ID and password (your data will download back to your device).

  • When deleting iCloud account, how can I save the photo's & other apps etc that are stored in iCloud?

    I have recently changed my Apple ID as my email address has changed &amp; also changed my password.
    I posted a question yesterday about this &amp; have since discovered from further searching here, that I need to delete and set up a new iCloud account as my iPad keeps asking me to login in with my Apple ID showing my old email address (&amp; doesn't accept old (or new) password). Also, naturally, I can't back up with iCloud.
    When I go to delete iCloud account a message appears that my photo stream (&amp; presumably other stored apps etc?) will be deleted/ lost from my iPad too. I currently have no access to any other computer (when return home I have a windows lap top only). I am therefore very reluctant to delete my account in fear of loosing my photo's in particular.
    Can any one help with the above please? Would all my stored data (phot's, apps etc) actually be deleted from my iPad when deleting my iCloud account? If so how else can I save (later restore?) my iCloud stored data?
    Man thanks,
    NJohnR

    I do appreciate your, obviously experienced, help.
    When I went to change my details in the mail settings as you suggested, I was unable to do so. Yes- I could &amp; did add my new email details that I changed to in my Apple ID. however I was unable to change the primary email &amp; therefore iCloud still wouldn't recognise my new Apple ID &amp; kept asking for my details under my old/ original email address.
    Though I did search further after this in the iCloud web site &amp; found further very similar questions to mine where users were successful by deleting the iCloud account.
    So I went ahead &amp; did this. As soon as I had deleted the account it asked me to login to iCloud with my new email address in my Apple ID which worked fine - &amp; I have also retained all my data.
    Again, I appreciate your help &amp; time you spent in reading and answering my need for help.
    All the best,
    NJohnR
