How can i turn on notes in my icloud settings using ios or os x on a pc

I am trying to use iCloud notes on my PC.  I get the following error. "To use iCloud Notes, create a new email address by turning on Notes in your iCloud settings using iOS or OS X."
I already have an icloud account.  Won't this work?

Do you already have an iCloud email address?  If not, you'll probably have to delete the account from your phone, then add it back.  Before doing so, open your my photo stream album and save any photo stream photos that you want to keep on your phone to your camera roll (unless already there) by tapping Edit, tap the photos, tap Share, tap Save to Camera Roll.  Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, choose Delete from My iPhone when prompted, then after a minute or so sign back in and turn on your sync settings. 
When you turn Notes to On this time, were you prompted to create and @icloud.com address?

  • TS4001 How can I share Safari bookmarks between two iCloud accounts using IOS 7 and Mavericks?

    Before iOS 7 and Mavericks, we were able to share Safari bookmarks between all of our devices.  My wife had the primary iCloud account which was setup to share bookmarks, contacts, calendars and reminders.  A secondary iCloud account was setup on my phone for only my email.  Each phone had our private email accounts segregated and we shared all the bookmarks, contacts, calendars and reminders.  When I saved a bookmark on my phone, I could see it later on our iMac or iPad.  Now only my wife can sync bookmarks between her phone and the iMac or iPad.  This *****!!  This worked beautifully before we upgraded to the latest versions of OS & iOS.  Is there a work around or a new way to set things up?  I don't want to be stuck reading Safari on my phone when I have a 24" iMac sitting in the living room.  I don't want to see all of my wife's email on my phone either.  Do we need three iCloud accounts now?  One main for sharing and two separate accounts for only email?  Need help!  Any suggestions would be appreciated, thanks.

    David,
    Thanks for the reply.  That's how I set it up originally.  Although the new iOS 7 update lost some functionality.  I found the following on the TUAW website.  The Safari Bookmarks and Find My Phone options have been removed from the secondary iCloud accounts options.  This is the problem.  Everything worked great before we updated.  I guess "new way" consolidates the iCloud accounts better with Maverick?  Now I will have extra documents on my phone that I don't need.  We will both have to share the same iCloud storage and backup space too.  Have to try it out and see how it works. Thanks.

  • HT1766 How can I restore my notes from my icloud backup?

    How can I restore notes on iPhone from my icloud backup?

    Restore the backup.  Backups are all or nothing.
    If notes were synced to iCloud, simply sync them.

  • HT1386 How can I sync itunes songs onto my iphone? Using ios 6.1.3 and itunes 11.0.4.4

    When I connect my iphone to itunes (USB) I am prompted to set up new iphone, or restore from back-up. I've already restored from back-up. I can't sync or manage my iphone with itunes now.
    Background info: I have recently been forced to update the operating system on my iphone - the contact, pictures and most apps restored just fine. But I cannot copy the music back onto my iphone. When I plug in the phone to sync with itunes I am now prompted to set up a new phone or restore from back up. I have already restored from back up and don't need these options any more.
    The syncing instructions I read show screen shots of itunes that I can no longer get to. Any syncing options I can find are greyed out and unusable.
    How can I place music onto my iphone?

    I appreciate your comment however, I sold my iPhone 4 and therefore cannot see how it synched before. What I do know is that I was not using the iCloud with the iPhone 4 and when Ireceived the iPhone 5 in the mail, I took it to the local Apple Store for some user education... The person in the store set this up.
    I have been an iphone user since the first phone was selling. I love the product and this issue is troublesome to me.
    I do wish that this problem would have been brought to my attention prior to purchasing. I waited weeks for delivery of the phone and thought I was advancing into the the future, not reversing in time.
    Looks like I have to re-create about 300 notes by hand!  UGH!

  • IMessage, iCloud and FaceTime not highlighted in iPhone5 Settings using IOS 6.1.4

    On my iPhone, in 'Settings', iCloud and Facetime are not highlighted and cannot by used.  In addition, within Messaging, iMessage appears to be on but is not highlighted and cannot be turned off or the addresses altered.  I have added another iPhone to my Apple ID recently, but I am still within the maximum of 10 devices on one account (I have 3 computers, an iPad, and iPod and 4 iPhones).  Any ideas?

    Hi Woopie77,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    Is it possible that you may have restrictions turned on for any of these apps?

    Hi maliappleid,
    Sounds like you need to go into Settings>iCloud and sign on your Apple/iCloud ID. You cannot access iCloud via the browser on an iOS device. You need to have iCloud signed on on your device. Once you get iCloud signed on, turn on the items you want sync'd to your device from iCloud. Once you are connected to Wifi, these items will sync to your device.
    Cheers,

  • How can I turn off over the air sync settings on my Mac iPhone

    Hi,
    For some reason I am attempting to sync my iPhone with my laptop as usual but now in the iTunes app when I attach my iPhone and go to Info, it reads: Your contacts are being synced with your iPhone over the air from MobileMe. Over the air sync settings can be changed on your iPhone. So here is the thing, I have looked online and have found nothing at all to show me how to do this on my iPhone. I want to be able to add info on my iPhone and then connect it with my laptop and sync it immediately with my laptop and also to add info on my laptop and immediately sync it with my iPhone. Please help. Thanks

    On your iPhone go to Settings - Mail, Contacts, Calendars. Then select your MobileMe account. Turn off the items you don't want synced over the air.

  • I did erase ipad from icloud. My ipad is not turning on now. How can i turn my ipad on. its ipad mini IOS 7.0.4

    "I did erase ipad from icloud. My ipad is not turning on now. How can i turn my ipad on? its ipad mini IOS 7.0.4"
    Pls help m out.
    thanks

    Connect the iPad to a charger, let it charge for half an hour, then try a reboot by holding both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears.
    If that does not work, start iTunes on your computer, connect the USB end of the cable, then press and hold the power button on the iPad and connect the other end of the cable.  Hold the power button for three seconds, and while continuing to hold it, press and hold the home button.  Continue to hold both buttons for ten seconds and then release the power button but continue to hold the home button for another twenty seconds.
    When you release the home button, iTunes should now see the iPad and allow you to restore it.

  • How can I turn off the pop up message that shows up 3 times everytime I print

    Every time I print whether a new cartridge has been installed or not, I get three pop up windows telling me the black, then the tri-color and the black again have been installed successfully. i have to click thru each one to be able to print.  How can I turn this off.

    What printer are you using?
    What OS do you have?
    Does it give a program name when it pops up, or does it just give you that message and a couple of options to choose from?

  • How can I sync my notes from iPhone 3GS to MacBook Pro?

    How can I sync my Notes from the iPhone 3GS running IOS 6.0.1 to my MacBook Pro running OSX 10.8.2?

    The most straightforward way (assuming your iPhone 3GS is running iOS 6, which it should be) is to use iCloud to house your contacts.
    Then it would be trivial to have your contacts synced and maintained between your MacBook Pro and your iPhone.
    P.S.:  Sorry, I said contacts but meant notes.  iCloud would work for both.
