I have tried to install iCloud on to my Windows Vista pc. No control panel is present and when I try to login to iCloud using my iTunes id, I am told that it is an Apple id but not set up for the cloud. without the control panel where do I set up my iCloud id?

You can not setup a new iCloud account using a PC. You must use an Apple device (Mac or iPhone/iPad) to create the account, then sign into it using your PC.

  • What to do when trying to log into my iCloud and it says "this apple iD is valid, but it's not an iCloud account"?

    What to do when trying to log into my iCloud and it says "this apple iD is valid, but it's not an iCloud account"?

    If you have not already created an iCloud account elsewhere you cannot do so on  PC, and that is the error message you will get. You can create an iCloud account on a Mac or an iOS device and then you should be able to sign into it in the iCloud Control Panel in Windows.

  • I'm trying to verify my apple id but when i log into icloud to get the email it says 'the apple id has not been verifed.' So how do i verify my account if it wont let me log into to icloud mail?

    I'm trying to verify my apple id but when i log into icloud to get the email it says 'the apple id has not been verifed.' So how do i verify my account if it wont let me log into to icloud mail? stressing me out please help me

    You have to respond to the verification email that Apple should have sent to you by clicking the Verify Now link.  Make sure you check the email address you used to set up your iCloud account.  This would not normally be an @icloud.com email address.  Also make sure you check the spam/junk folder as well as the inbox.  If it isn't there, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage your Apple ID, sign in, click on Name, ID and Email addresses on the left, then to the right click Resend under your Primary Email Address to resend the verification email.

  • HT204150 I currently have 14,181 contacts that are on my computer, which an apple tech was nice enough to show me how to transfer all my contacts  from my mac 2 "iCloud " account all though when ever I log into my "iCloud" account it still only shows 13,0

    I currently have 14,181 contacts that are on my computer, which an apple tech was nice enough to show me how to transfer all my contacts  from my mac 2 "iCloud " account all though when ever I log into my "iCloud" account from a different web browser it still only shows 13,032. Meanwhile on my mac book pro, the "icloud" contact is still spinning like its trying to update the rest of the missing contacts. I have let the computer run for 2 days straight and still no progress. Is there a limit to how many contacts I store on "iCloud" I have upgraded to the extra 25 gigs per year. If anyone has any advice I would greatly appreciate it, because its also slowing down my mac book pro significantly causing it hard to do any other task on my computer....Any advice or help would be again greatly appreciated.

    On the surface, it doesn't sound like you're reaching a limit in the number of contacts you can have.
    I would first create a contacts archive (file >> export) for a backup.  Then, go to system preferences >> icloud and uncheck contacts.  Reboot.  Return to those preferences and recheck contacts.
    Also, review http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4489 just in case you have some contact cards that are reaching a different limitation.

  • HT204053 Where do I log into my icloud

    Hi how can I log into my iCloud? Sorry for the ? But this is the first apple product I own.
    Also, I want to download the update to ios6 but it won't let me. I suspect it's because of space but I I've pretty much deleted all I can.
    If I purchase more iCloud backup storage will that help?
    Thank you so much to all :)

    Hi David, thank you. Well here's the thing, when I go to settings general usage at the very top it says I have: storage: 672 MB available and 12.9 gb used. If I o to storage it says I have: total 5.0 and available 2.1. I assume that's the "iCloud storage"? What I want to know is. How cannot log into "iCloud" and see what's bee saved so far? Also, I'm trying to download the ios6 software update, but I noticed it says: t the top 626 mb and at te bottom: requires at least 2.5 fb of available storage and the button is greeted out, so I can't download it. If ii buy more iCloud storage can I download it then or is it referring to phone storage or are they the same thing?
    Sorry for my lack of knowledge but I'm trying. thanks for everyone's help:)

  • My iPad is logged into my iCloud account, but my wife's iTunes. I have uploaded video footage from my iPhone to my iCloud. It appears on the iPad but is not accessible in iMovie? What's the fix?

    My iPad is logged into my iCloud account, but my wife's iTunes. I have uploaded video footage from my iPhone to my iCloud. It appears on the iPad but is not accessible in iMovie? What's the fix?

    You shouldn't have to change your iTunes account to not have to purchase it twice.  If your devices are using different iTunes IDs, just purchase it on one device, then import it to your iTunes library by connecting the device to your computer, opening iTunes and going to File>Devices>Transfer Purchases.  Once in iTunes, you should be able to sync it to your other device (assuming both devices are syncing with the same iTunes library).  (And even if they were syncing with separate libraries, you could use Home Sharing to copy the app from one library to the other.)
    Or, am I missunderstanding something?

  • I can't log into my iCloud keychain due to the fact I lost my password?

    I Can't log into my iCloud keychain account due to lost password? Every time I want to change it will change my Apple ID password. I put my password for my Apple ID in for iCloud keychain and it won't work? Any help would be great

    Hi
    https://appleid.apple.com/
    and
    https://www.icloud.com
    are two different accounts
    Therefore you should still use your "old" (existing) iCloud mail address - you cannot change the iCloud mail address.
    However you could add an alias instead to you iCloud account.

  • How do I log into my iCloud account on my iPad

    Everytime I time to log into my iCloud on my iPad (within Safari) it delivers a screen asking me to setup iCloud again, it also invites me to download "find my iPhone" and "find my friends" apps which I already have on the iPad. My iCloud a/c is active for several weeks and I have purchased additional storage, I have no prob on my iMac or MB Pro, any ideas anyone? Obviously I am using -  www.icloud.com...

    Tom,
    Winston's note above, is correct for accessing your iCloud account on an ipad. You cannot open the iCloud web site on your ipad, only on your iMac. However, you can eliminate your photo stream pics directly on your ipad. Open the ipad photo app. The top menu bar includes the "photo stream" tab where you can see those photos. Tap a photo so that it enlarges.... then on the top right is the "trash" icon, which allows you to delete one photo at a time. BTW, the quickest way to eliminate a number of photos in your Photo Stream collection is to use your iPhoto application on your iMac, which will then remove them from your ipad, too.

  • TS3988 I can log into my iCloud account on my iphone but when I try to log in on my pc I keep getting a connection error message.  Any ideas?

    I can log into my iCloud account on my iphone but when I try to log in on my pc I keep getting a connection error message.  Any ideas?

    Same problem. I can see the itunes store so not a problem with windows firewall. The account is active on my iphone so i know i am not locked out. I can connect the PC to my iphone so i know itunes is working ok. It is just logging into itunes on this pc which doesn't work. Only thing I can think of is that the email address I use for my apple id has been offline for a while and is working again now, I'm wondering whether this has been the case for others who are having this issue?

  • I am having troubles logging into my Icloud

    I am having troubles with Ipad (16GM os7), it is stating I have 2.5 GB on the unit.  My ipad only shows 5GB on it and my Icloud has 5GB max.  I don't want to upgrade and get more memory, so I want to log into my Icloud and delete some items.  I tried to log in on my ipad, didn't work.  I tried to log into Icloud on my PC and it wouldn't work either.  Can you please help..

    You can't sign into icloud.com using Safari on your iPad, if that's what you tried to do.  You have to use your computer browser.
    What happens when you go to icloud.com from your PC?
