Getting error message "cannot sign in due to server error"

Why am I getting error message "cannot sign in due to server error" when I try to sign in to iCloud?

A software fluke or hiccup perhaps. Try closing the mail app completely, reboot the iPad and see if the message goes away.
Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the Mail app and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
Reboot 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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

    You may have to follow the slightly more detailed steps in whichever of these two applies to you.

    Rebooting into safe mode may be needed to delete any folder the instructions say you should remove. You may also find this Microsoft Fixit helps to remove stubborn components. It has taken some people several attempts to completely clean iTunes and supporting software before they have been able to successfully reinstall it.

  • HT204053 When signing on to iCloud I get an error message saying "cannot sign in due to server error"

    Why can't I sign into iCloud from my pc?  I get en error message saying there is a server error.

    Start with the basics. Force close mail and reset your iPad.
    In order to close apps, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
    Next, 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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
    If that doesn't help, you might want to consider resetting your router by unplugging it from power for about 30 seconds. That can help at times even if all of your other devices are connecting to the Internet. I suggest this, because the message that you are getting may be due to a bad connection to the Internet.

  • Can't sign in due to server error with icloud, windows 8 laptop

    I cannot sign in to icloud on my windows 8 laptop due to server error.

    With as many people that have this same issue, I am very surprised that support is still sleeping at the wheel.  Some of the suggestions border on the absolute absurd (e.g. create new user account, check the system clock, etc.).  I've tried them all, including exclusion from AVAST, resetting router, etc etc etc.  iCloud status shows all green.
    As the owner of a software development company, I find it hard to believe Apple, of all support, has been unable to get this issue resolved once and for all.  It would certainly make sense, as well, to collate this issue into a single thread instead of bouncing users off the moon and back.
    I spent 1/2 day on the phone with Apple support trying to get iTunes to backup and was promised a call back from the next tier of support.  That was 4 months ago and I still haven't been able to backup my iphone 4S.  I've never seen software that is more kludgy and unreliable with every passing upgrade (sorry, but it's the truth)!
    After two years of not being able to back up my phone, I am considering going to a more reliable platform.  After 6 years on the Apple bus, maybe it's time to get off.

  • Photoshop CC2014 does not launch. Error message ' cannot initialize photoshop because of program error

    Hi, I get this error message (cannot initialize) after the splash screen.
    I have chatted with Adobe staff and spoke to one. I have un-installed and re-installed, created new administrator and installed, fixed permissions, deleted preferences, you name it.
    In previous chat on a forum I read about the PsErrorLog.txt file.
    Mine says:
    2014:08:23 10:50:20 : /Volumes/workarea/PS_15_Mac_Daily_Retail/20140730.r.148/photoshop/main/photoshop/sources/ UColorState.cpp : 737 : REQUIRE failed

    I cannot locate the ColorSettings.csf in the photoshop preferences folder  and my System Preferences / displays / color says iMac.
    Any tips how to solve this issue?

    Either your default color settings files are corrupted, or they are missing (they're in the system application support folder).
    Uninstalling and reinstalling should put the default files back in place.

    Hi,
    Are you running any Anti-virus software or do you have your firewall turned on? If so, disable them and try again. If that doesn't work, delete the iCloud account and then sign it back on again.
    Make sure you are running the most current version of the iCloud Control Panel:

    Hi aychekay
    Try following:
    - Add a TimeStamp Datatype Column to the table on the SQL Server
    - Rebind the tables into your database
    - Try your code again
    You never should run an Access Application against an SQL Server in readwrite mode without having TimeStamp datatype columns in your tables. Already for performance reasons this is a must and also, if you have datetime datatype fields on
    the SQL Server that are not exclusively maintained by Access, as the SQL Server may add miliseconds when writing the data. Same for Single precision datatypes, that may be rounded until you get the result back from the server. If you have a Timestamp datatype
    column in your table then Access is sure the record wasn't changed in the meantime and will not recheck the received record again against the database for changes in one of it's fields.

    This problem didn't go away yet. I'm having it too in Access 2007 (SP2 not installed yet) with a SQL Server 2008 Express backend. I'm sure my code is not reference any form controls or other object references. Access just complains if you try to run an Execute
    with "DELETE" on a table that has an identity column. I've resorted to deleting using a DAO recordset and loop instead for now.
    I actually started out using MySQL with MySQL's ODBC drivers and my statement worked fine. Only when I migrated to SQL Server did I start to have this problem.
    Just sayin...
