HT204053 I can't log on to icloud from my Windows 7 PC. It says it's a valid Apple ID, but not icloud. When I try to log in from my original ID, it says invalid.

I can't sync my iphone 4 with icloud on my PC. I downloaded the icloud software and it says my ID is a valid Apple ID, but not an icloud ID - this is right after I've set it up as one. Help!

Are you trying to login to an account you already made (on an iPhone or similar) or create a new iCloud account?

HT5622 valid apple id but not icloud account. I tried downloading on a different computer and logging in and it did not work. I have restarted my computer several times. I have changed my password several times. I have tried to access the icloud page.

repeating error message reads: "valid apple id but not icloud account." when trying to start my icloud account. I tried downloading on a different computer and logging in and it did not work. I have restarted my computer several times. I have changed my password several times. I have tried to access the icloud page. Nothing has worked. Now I have this stupid app and some of my music is still not being shared on both of my computers.

I have the same problem signing in...but, I finally got a screen saying you have to set up a account on a device..like an ipad to get a iCloud sign in ...my apple id is [email protected] and this screen reset to [email protected]
If you don't have an apple device you may be out of luck. I don't know. I'm still waiting for help just as you are...good luck to both of us though.

An update.
From iCloud Control Panel 2.1.1 for Windows
"iCloud Control Panel 2.1 and later includes support for Windows 8"
but you still need to set it up on a Mac or iOS device, "Note: To create an iCloud account you need an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 5 or later, or a Mac with OS X Lion v10.7.5 or later."

I have icloud installed on a pc when I sign in it says I have a valid apple account but not an icloud account

I have icloud installed on my pc,when I sign in it says that I have a valid apple account but not an icloud account

You are getting this message because you are trying to create an iCloud account on a PC. You can only create iCloud account on an iOS device (iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch) running iOS 5 or higher, or on a Mac running OS X Lion (10.7.5) or higher. After creating your account on one of these devices you will then be able to sign into the account using this ID on your PC.

HT1349 I get a message that says I have a valid apple ID but not an icloud ID

I'm trying to run the icloud control panel from a Windows 7. Im able to sign in to the icloud website, but not the control panel. I've changed my Apple ID. I've unistalled the control panel. I've changed my internet browser, but when I try to log in to the control panel it tells me that though my Apple ID is valid, it is not an icloud ID. I follow the "forget password" link on the control panel sign in window to change my icloud ID, but it changes the apple ID and I still cant get into the control panel with that ID.
Any help would be greatly appreciated,

Hello justwannalisten1
You would need to convert your Apple ID into an iCloud account on either an iOS device or on a Mac. Check out the article below for more info about creating an iCloud account.

HT4901 I'm trying to set my settings for icloud but it says "This is a valid Apple ID but not an icloud account, what am I doing wrong."

What am I doing wrong.

You can't create a new iCloud acount using a PC. You must create it on an Apple device, a Mac or an iPad/iPhone. Then you can use it on your PC.

I log in with my itunes login - it tells me i have a valid apple id, but not a validi cloud account. Help please???

Hi, I have just downloaded icloud, its on my desktop fine. When I try to log-in with my usual itunes id, it tells me - I have a valid apple id but not an icloud account. Am I being dumb or should I be doing something else? - please help, its doing my head in....

You should have been assigned an @me.com email address, which is the login. If you moved from MobileMe "paid" then that will be the Apple ID to use.

Hi, Sorathekeyblademaster.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
To use iCloud, you must first sign up via your Apple ID on an iOS device running iOS 5 or later. This can also be done on a Mac running OS X Lion v10.7.5 or later.

Once you have created an iCloud account via one of this listed ways above, you should be able to use it on your PC.

HT204053 I am trying to sign up for icloud using windows 7. When I enter my apple id it says "this is a valid apple id but is not an icloud account". Where do I create an icloud account?

I already quoted the minimum requirements, look in the post before yours.
You will have to upgrade your Mac to at least 10.7.5, upgrades are not free, you buy them from the App Store. Mountain Lion is the best but your Mac must be compatible.
Here is a list of compatible machines.
Also note that some older apps (Office 2004, Appleworks) will not run on Mountain Lion.

Stupid icloud sign in box says my id is a valid apple id but not an icloud id! after changing my password it still won't let me sign in, why?

I finally got tired of updating iTunes and saying no to iCloud. Stupid me apparently. Now I'm Faced with a sign in box for iCloud that says my id is a valid Apple id but NOT an iCloud id. Everything I look at says that the id should work for both. Well, it's not for me and I am regretting having installed iCloud. If I can't sign in, or find out how to, I am going to remove iCloud and will never have anything to do with it again as it will be an obviously unusable program. Anyone know how to fix the stupid thing?
OK. I finally got a new screen that says I have to use my apple id to set up iCloud on a device..I don't have any devices..only my PC, unless a Kindle counts. Can anyone help here, please?

Hi kjohns2001,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
If you do not have an iPhone, iPad or iPod touch, then you don't need iCloud.
It is a service that keeps these devices and your computer synchronized.
iCloud Control Panel 3.0 for Windows
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1455
iCloud keeps mail, contacts, and calendars up to date between your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, Mac, and Windows PC, and lets you share calendars and task lists.
So, you can uninstall it from the Control Panel in Windows.
Cheers,
- Judy
