I have taken off/turned off iCloud on my mac mini but when I write an email and use contacts it will convert a non iCloud email to and iCloud email automatically. I really don't want this. Any way to stop this automatic conversion?

I have taken off/turned off iCloud on my mac mini (OS 10.8) but when I send an email and use contacts , it will convert the non - iCloud email to an iCloud email automatically. Anyway to stop this automatic conversation?

Robert...
the iCloud webserver wont accept my password for a .mac login, nor will it allow me to change it
See if you can change your password > Apple - My Apple ID
If that doesn't help, launch iTunes on your computer.
From the iTunes menu bar click iTunes / Preferences then select the Advanced tab.
Click: Reset warnings and Reset cache
Click OK.
Restart your computer.
If that that doesn't help...
Moreover, when I try to go into my .mac account on the web,
Delete all apple cookies and empty your browser cache.
See if you can access your account at iCloud.com

HT204053 i cant verify my icloud account on my iphone how can i do this

i cant verify the icloud account on my phone anyone have any ideas

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Put in a request for another verification e-mail to be sent to you.
Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account .
Also check your Mail rules and filtering, the verification mail may be going to a junk folder or even being deleted altogether.

Do you have an iCloud account (did you make one?)

ICloud on older Mac running 10.6.8 - with Intel 2 GHz Core Duo

Do I understand correctly that I can't upgrade to iCloud from Mobile Me, with an older Mac running 10.6.8 (with 2 GHz Intel Core Duo)?

This will be the situation with Snow Leopard if you migrate your MobileMe account:
Your email, calendars, contacts and bookmarks, and 'Find my iPhone' will be migrated to iCloud.
Your iDisk, together with website hosting and Gallery, will continue to work as before until next June.
Syncing of Dashboard Widgets, Dock Items and Keychains between Macs, and Mail Accounts, Mail Rules, System Preferences, Signatures & Smart Mailboxes between Macs & iOS devices, will cease altogether.
You will be able to access email, calendar and contacts on the iCloud website at http://icloud.com provided your browser is reasonably up-to-date.
You will not be able to sync contacts or bookmarks from a pre-Lion Mac.
You will be able to enter the server settings for email manually in the Mail application and access your email.
You will not be able to sync your calendars directly.
Some people have been able to set up calendar syncing by using the method detailed here - this is an unsupported hack and may not be reliable, and may stop working at some future point. BusyCal is an iCal-like calendar application with extra facilities: it can sync with the iCloud Calendar while running on Leopard, Snow Leopard or Lion.
There appears to be no method of syncing contacts (though Address Book on a Mac can be synced with Google or Yahoo address books - I don't know how reliable this is).

You can access iCloud.com on a computer to turn it off.

Have changed apple id and now cant turn on ICLOUD

I recently broke my screen on my 4s. my daughter had recently updated here 4s to a 5s so I decided to backup my phone and restore onto the now spare 4s.
some time ago I changed my email account and as I no longer had access to it I changed the name of my apple ID to my new email account. what I now realise is that I hadn't logged out of the old ICLOD id on my iPhone and logged back in with the new one. I hadn't thought of this as all was working ok (I don't use any cloud services, just find my iphone).
when I restored my image to the new 4s it came up with a message asking me to log into icloud but with the old ID. As that ID no longer exists I cannot login to that ID. As my new iPhone is on 7.x I cannot delete the Icloud account that came onto it via the backup as find my iPhone is turned on.
so I am now stuck as I cannot log onto an account that does not exist.....
help please.

having looked into this a bit more and found I have a bigger problem than just the one i originally posted as this impacts more than one of my devices.
I think I can pose the question in a easier way.....
I changed the name of my apple ID as it was using the name of an old email account I no longer have access to.
when I go onto any of my IOS devices that are running 7.x to change the Icloud account details , I cannot delete the old account id because when I try to it asks me for the password of my old account ID as I have find my iphone turned on. when I type in the password that was on the old account it says "incorrect apple id or password". I assume because that apple ID no longer exists.
ICLOUD obviously recognises the two accounts are the save as when I run up findmyiphone on an iphobe that is logged in with my new account ID it can see other IOS devices in my family that are still logged in with the old account name.
so my questions is:
how do you log you update an IOS device if you have simply changed the account name of your apple ID if you are on IOS 7 and have find my iphone turned on?

Cant turn off iCloud

(Really bad at wording things haha, sorry!), but....
I recently just upgraded from an iPhone 4 to an iPhone 5 and I'm trying to erase all content and settings from the 4. I rang up my network to activate my new phone and they have cut off the service from my iPhone 4. So, when I put in my iCloud password to erase everything, it comes up with 'Verification Failed - The Internet connection appears to be offline.'
Is there any way i can turn off my iCloud without having internet connection?

Nope. It says no service as my network have cutt off the connection because I now use another phone...

HT204053 i cant open an icloud account

trying to open an icloud account. downloaded the control panel on pc windows 7 , go to open icloud and it asks me for login info.

Did you sign in on the iCloud control panel with your existing iCloud ID?

Hi, I have a recurring problem with my ipad3. The battery is showing 100% however my ipad constantly shuts itself down and comes back on. When its on it freezes and I cant turn it on or off, or runs really slow. Only had it 2 months, is this usual ?

Hi, I have had my ipad3 for only 2months and have now had this problem 3 times. The battery is fully charged to 100% and when I try to switch it on the slider screen appears as normal, it only stays on for a short time then a small circle appears and the ipad switches off.
Eventually it switches itself back on, then continues to switch off and on again.
When the screen opens it runs very slowly and I cant open anything before it closes down again.
Today this has been happening constantly, and have not able to use it as I could not get it to stay on for any length of time, very frustrating!
I plugged it back in to recharge again and was able to eventually press both buttons to reset it again. It now seems to be working ok again.
Can anyone tell me if thay have had the same problems, or is this a faulty ipad?
Its the first Apple product Ive owned so dont know if this is a common problem or not, be grateful for any info on this, thanks

Not normal. Take it to an Apple Store for evaluation.

HT204053 how do i add icloud to my mac

How do I download ICloud onto my mac

Update to OS X 10.7.5 or later. You will then be able to sign into iCloud in System Preferences.

I can no longer access documents in iCloud from my Mac running Mavericks

I entered into the Yosemite public beta program. After running the installation, I decided to go back to Mavericks. I used my Time Machine Backup to restore my Mavericks installation. All is well again except one thing, I cannot access any pre-Beta documents in my iCloud. I can't see anything in the folders: in Numbers, Pages, or via iCloud.com. I also can't reset iCloud via iCloud.com. I can access some of my documents via Numbers on my iPad, but they have issues like missing fonts.
If I officially leave the Yosemite Public Beta (via the leave webpage) will it restore my iCloud documents access? Or am I stuck until Yosemite and iOS 8.0 are released?
I would expect some bugs and speedbumps in a beta, but every page I viewed before trying it stated I could go back to Mavericks using my Time Machine backup, which I did. Had I known I shouldn't enter my icloud info when installing the beta when it asked, I wouldn't have. I'm assuming the files are still there, I just can't see them because I was upgraded to iCloud drive as part of the beta. I may try installing Yosemite Beta in Parallels just to see if I can recover my documents that way.
Anyone else experiencing this?

You might try to see if you can restore your iWork documents from an earlier point in time by using Time Machine. To do this, Open Finder and navigate to “~/Library/Mobile Documents/com~apple~Pages/Documents” (without the quotes) from the Go>Go to Folder menu. Then launch Time Machine, go back in time until you see your pages documents, then select them, click Restore and exit Time Machine. Then repeat this from "~/Library/Mobile Documents/com~apple~Numbers/Documents" to restore your Number documents.

ICloud OK with Macs running Mavericks and Mountain Lion?

I have two Macs on Mountain Lion currently, but only want to upgrade one of them to Mavericks.
Will iCloud still work seamlessly?
Thanks!

Correct. iCloud is compatible with OS X Lion and later, so you won't have any problem using iCloud in OS X Mavericks even if one of your Macs is using OS X Mountain Lion. The only thing that iCloud adds in Mavericks is iCloud Keychain, so you can't use it with your computer with OS X Mountain Lion. Apart from that, everything should be working correctly.
Before upgrading, make a backup of your files with Time Machine and check that your apps are compatible > http://www.roaringapps.com

I cant turn on my icloud in settings on my ipad, but it works on my pc and iphone

I cant turn on icloud on my ipad, in settings the icon is faded and does not respond to touch. icloud is working fine on my iphone and pc. any suggestions?

Hi stefania2,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
Try the troubleshooting steps below to refresh your iPad.
You may also need to look at your iCloud settings and sign out and then sign back in to your account.
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430
If these two options don't resolve your issue, then see page 119 in the iPad User Guide to Reset All Settings
manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1595/en_US/ipad_user_guide.pdf
Go to Settings > General > Reset, then choose an option:
Reset All Settings: All your preferences and settings are reset.
