Did you already activate iCloud on your IOS device using that same apple ID?
"To create an iCloud account you need an iPhone, iPad or iPod touch with iOS 5, or a Mac with OS X Lion v10.7"

HT1766 When I setup my new iPhone 5c I inadvertently entered wrong email address for apple id. I cannot verify the email sent. I have a new apple id, but can neither use nor delete the iCloud account. How do I get an iCloud account for this phone?

When I set up my new iPhone 5c I inadvertently used wrong email for setting up my apple id. I have since setup an id with correct email, but cannot verify the first account. I cannot delete it either. How can I get an iCloud account for this phone?

You said "have since setup an id with correct email, but cannot verify the first account. I cannot delete it either. ".
Why can't you verify it?
Do you not receive the verification email address?
If problem contact iTunes by:

I don't have any apple products personally, this is for work to use Photo Stream so when Superintendents & Project Managers take pictures of their construction site, I am able to have those images immediately.
Thank you

You can not create an iCloud account using a PC, you will need an Apple product. Once the account exists you can logon to it from a PC.

How can I get the iCloud/iTunes password for my (now) deceased Father-in-Law's Imac? I have a list of his passwords, but nothing works!

How can I get the iCloud/iTunes password for my (now) deceased Father-in-Law's iMac? I have a list of his passwords, but nothing works! I know his email, but that account has been cancelled for security purposes, so we can't just request a new one. I tried his security questions to no avail.
Thanks

Since that password is tied to his Apple ID, you will need to contact Apple; as far as I know, it will be a somewhat lengthy procedure and you will need to furnish necessary paperwork (including a death certificate as far as I know). Best to either stop at an Apple store or call them to find out exactly what it is you need to do.

How can i get my icloud restored back to a previous date

Does anyone know how I can get my icloud restored back to a week ago? My two separate apple iPhones had their iCloud accounts merged and I got my personal accounts and work accounts merged. When trying to split them back up again, I deleted all my contacts on icloud and now I can't get them back. can i get my icloud restored? I restored my phone, but that didn't work. Thanks for your help.

A partition is just a section of the disk set aside for a particular purpose. In this case, we're talking about a Mac partition and a Windows partition. They have different formats, which is how the data is stored. The disks that came with your Mac will create the Mac partition when you install, but most likely you'll lose the Windows partition. You've got kind of a mess at this point. What you should do is install the Mac OS and get everything as you want it. Then run Bootcamp to create a Windows partition and let Bootcamp do the Windows installation for you. Grant gave you good advice earlier. Don't let Windows do any partitioning. That's how you got into this mess.

How do I get the iCloud to save and sync and upload info from both the devices on my account. Right now I can only do one

How do I get the iCloud to save and sync and upload info from both the devices on my account. Right now I can only do one

You must put each device on the Verizon cloud.
Not both lines on one.
Go and set up a my Verizon account for the second line and you will have Verizon cloud service on that line.
Oh the term "icloud" is a trademark of Apple Inc. Verizon is not Apple.
Good Luck

Hi ryball89,
Happy Holidays! If you are having issues with the verification email for your iCloud/Apple ID, follow the steps below:
If you didn't receive your verification or reset email - Apple Support
http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201455
If you didn't receive your verification or reset email
Not sure where that email was sent? Here are some tips to help you find it.
When you make certain updates to your Apple ID, we’ll send you an email to help you complete the update. For example, you might have reset your password, reset your security questions, or added a new email address to your account. If you can't find the email after we send it, these steps can help.
Search for the email
We'll send the email from "Apple," so you can quickly search for it. If it isn't in your inbox, check your folders. If a spam filter or email rule moved the email, it might be in the Spam, Junk, Trash, Deleted Items, or Archive folder.
Make sure you're checking the correct email account
If you're looking for a password reset email, make sure you're checking the correct email inbox. It will either be your primary Apple ID email address or a separate rescue email address that you added to your account.
If you're looking for a verification email, you can sign in to My Apple ID and review all the email addresses you have on file, including the one that you're trying to verify. If the email address is incorrect, you can update it and send another verification email.
Resend the email
To resend a reset email, repeat the steps to reset your password or security questions, and we'll send an email to your rescue or primary Apple ID email address.
To resend the verification email, go to My Apple ID, select Manage your Apple ID, then sign in. Click Resend next to the email address that you want to verify, and we'll send an email to that address.
Make sure that you're getting email
If you're not getting any email, you might need to contact your email service provider for help. You can also use these steps to get help receiving email at OS X Mail or an iCloud email address.
Contact us
Go to System Status and see if Apple ID is available. If you still can't find the reset email or verification email, contact Apple Support.
Cheers,
Judy

TS3988 I have exceeded my iCloud free account how do I get on icloud

I have forgot my password on iCloud and now it says I have exceeded my account how do I get on iCloud now

You can only set up three iCloud accounts per device. If you've already done that on the device you are using the only way to set up another one is to do so on another device, if you have one. Otherwise, you could try resetting your password at https://iforgot.apple.com/.

Hi there maxfitz1,
If you have upgraded to iCloud Drive, you can manage you data in a variety of ways. Take a look at the article below for more information.
iCloud Drive FAQ
How do I access all my files in iCloud Drive?
You can access your files in iCloud Drive any of these ways:
Using any supported web browser, you can go to iCloud Drive at iCloud.com.
On your Mac with OS X Yosemite, you can go to iCloud Drive in Finder.
On your PC with Windows 7 or later and iCloud for Windows 4.0, you can go to iCloud Drive in File Explorer.
On your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch with iOS 8, you can use Apple apps like Pages, Numbers, and Keynote, or any apps that support iCloud Drive.

Hello all, I bouhgt a TV serial using my apple tv2 and my Apple ID information: all good. But then I got an e-mail from apple saying that an "unknown" user downloaded con ten using my apple ID. Nobosy stoled anything. How do I get my particular apple TV2

Hello all, I bouhgt a TV serial using my apple tv2 and my Apple ID information: all good. But then I got an e-mail from Apple saying that an "unknown" user downloaded content using my apple ID. Nobody stoled anything. How do I get my particular apple TV2 to recognize my apple ID account so it knows it is me who is buying. Thank you so much.

Dear AC,
Thank you so, so much for this answer. I did go into my Apple ID account through iTunes store and associated my devices to my Apple ID account. I did this by working on my computers (a mac mini and a mac air) and my two devices (iPhone and iPad). Thus there is a statemente saying "4 devices are associated with this apple ID and can download your purchases from iTunes in the iCloud". So whenever I use them to purchase anything, iCloud knows it is me through my devices so I do not get no e-mail warming me my account might be being used by a stranger.
So, how do I associate my apple Tv2 to my apple ID account? I went to its settings and could not find any way of doing it. Can you continue helpling me? Please.
Thank you so so much
