Getting 'You can't sign on because of a server error' message
I am getting this message when trying to setup the iCloud app on my PC for the first time. It allows me to sign in the the Apple support Communities with this ID password, but not into the iCloud app. What is happening?
Antonio,
Show ... it worked ... you are the man! This hint of clicking the right mouse button on the prompt and run as Administrator was perfect.
Thank you very much

TS3988 in syncing my old PC to iCloud, i get: "you can't sign in because of a server error"
When syncing my old PC to iCloud, i get: "you can't sign in because of a server error"? any advice on how to bypass the server error?
I also have the same problem. I've tried all fixes listed in other forums and nothing works. Running windows Vista 32 bit. Any working solutions yet? Tried every solution listed for the cmd prompt. Turned off antivirus and spyware. Rebooting about 100 times. Nothing works.

Thanks,To solve this problem you can:
Windows 7
1) Click on Start
2) Type cmd and press enter
you will see a new window
3) type "netsh winsock reset"
4) restart the machine

If still does not work you must disable the firewall and antivirus

Icloud error "you can't sign in because of a server error"
icloud error message "You can't sign in because of a server error."
Hello wjlorenzjr,
This is often caused by security software preventing the iCloud Control Panel from communicating properly with our servers. The following article provides further information necessary to make sure your software is allowing proper communication and operation.
