HT204053 logging into icloud on my ipod

my icloud asks for another account password, how do I re-set to my account?

If you're trying to login to iCloud on your iPod, go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with the ID as password for the account you want to use. You should only be prompted for the password for the ID you are trying to sign in with when you do this. Is that what you're doing?

HT204053 I cannot log into iCloud using my Apple username and password. I keep getting an error message that states "CANNOT SIGN UP - The Apple ID is valid but is not an iCloud account." How do I fix this?

You are getting this message because you are attempting 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 (10.7.2) or higher. After creating your account on one of these devices you will then be able to sign into the account on your PC.

HT204053 How do I log into iCloud to see what I have stored on it and how do I change my password if I forgot it?

When I first got my iPad mini for Christmas I didn't think that I set up an iCloud account. When I go to iCloud in my settings it says that I have stuff in an iCloud account. How do I find out if I have an iCloud account and how would I get a new password or reset the password. Also, how do log into log into iCloud to see what I have in storage. Thanks.... if you need to contact me about this matter. I have an iPad mini.

You aren't addressing Apple here. This is a user forum and you shouldn't post personal information here such as your email address. I've asked the host to remove it.
As for your question, go to Settings>iCloud and write down the email address shown next to "Account". That's your iCloud ID. Then, if you can't remember the password for the ID, go here to reset it: http://support.apple.com/kb/HE36. Once you have the new password, you can go to icloud.com from your computer and sign into to see some of the data you are syncing with iCloud. If you are syncing your iPad with iCloud, this data is on your iPad too. You are syncing the data that you have set to On in Settings>iCloud.

HT204053 Can I log into iCloud with an alias email?

Noob here, did a search and couldn't seem to find an answer. (or I didnt look hard enough. ) So aplogies if these have already been asked before.
I want to change my iCloud email address, but I've searched around here and read that you can't change it once you create it and link it to your apple ID. So, I created an alias and was wondering if you could log into iCloud with an alias email?
For example if my iCloud address is [email protected] and my alias was [email protected], could I go to icloud.com and login using [email protected]?
Also, what are the proper steps to get the alias email to behave like the icloud primary email;I stupidly chose a dumb icloud email address and regret it, and if I set the alias to be the only email to be able to send mail in my iphone and macbook, can I basically ignore the primary icloud email and use the alias the whole time to send and compose mail?
Also, I don't necessarily need to know/use the primary icloud email, since I use my apple ID to log into icloud.com?
From what I understand, the primary icloud that is linked to your apple ID is mail server, right? I'm not really sure, to be honest.
Thanks!

In the Mail application on your Mac, add the aliases, separated by commas, to the 'Email address' field in Preferences>Accounts>General. They will then appear in the drop-down menu for the 'From' address in the New message pane.
They already appear in the equivalent place in the new message pane at icloud.com.

HT204053 I changed my apple ID password but I cant log into icloud on my iphone. Why?

I changed my apple ID password but I cant log into icloud on my iphone. Why?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iTunes account on your iOS device, you need to sign out from your iOS device first, then sign back in using your updated details. (Settings > iTunes & App store, scroll down and tap your ID)
If you are using iMessages or FaceTime, you will also need to log out and into your ID there too.

HT204053 i frequently have a very hard time logging into Icloud. is this normal?

i frequently have a hard time logging into Icloud. ID and password have not changed but getting past log on screen is a challange. Any suggestions?

Issues when accessing iCloud.com from a Windows PC and logging in (sporadic problem), using Contacts, Calendar, Notes, etc., or sending error reports when errors occur seems to be a common problem.
My recommendation is to download Apple’s Safari version 5.1.7 for Windows to access iCloud.com. It consistently works for me!!!! To make things easier with Safari, I made iCloud.com its Homepage. I’m using it to access iCloud.com from all of my PCs.
On my Windows 7 systems it appears that some add-ons are causing problems when you try to access iCloud.com with the 32-bit version of IE9, but the 64-bit version seems to work fine, more than likely because there are few add-ons that are 64 bit and the 64-bit version can't be the default browser in IE9. Norton Internet Security’s “Browser Protection” is what caused my iCloud.com issues when using IE9 32-bit.
Also, I just updated to IE10 on my Windows 7 Pro computer. Unlike IE9, IE10 seems to work well with iCloud.com, but IE10 does have a few issues in general. So, as mentioned, I’d use Safari as my dedicated interface to iCloud until all Windows and Internet Explorer issues are resolved.

I try and log into icloud but the get the message valid apple id but not an icloud account. help anyone

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
You have to log in iCloud on an iPhone, iPod touch, iPad or Mac first before being able to use iCloud on your PC. See > http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup
If you haven't got an iPhone, iPod touch, iPad or Mac, you can't use iCloud

My appleid is working fine on the web, and iPhone, but I cannot get my MacBook Pro to recognize the applied and log into iCloud

My appleid is working fine on the web, and iPhone, but my MacBook Pro does not recognize the same password, and I cannot log into iCloud. I have deleted the iCloud account, and reentered a new one, and that has no effect.

Hey kbert73
I would do a transfer of purchases from the phone and not sync. If you sync then it will want to start over and sync music that is on the MacBook Pro. If you want to transfer the music, check out the article below that will give you multiple options on how to move. I have also provided on how to sync with multiple computers.

After recent OS update (10.8.2) I can no longer log into icloud.

After recent OS update (10.8.2) I can no longer log into icloud. I've reset password, but when I try to login on the icloud preferences panel it gives a little "bonk" sound and then spins forever. Open to suggestion. Thanks!

Signing out and signing back in seemed to do the trick as suggested here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/19827058#19827058

I can not log into iCloud

Please help - I've upgraded to ML 10.8 (and also 10.8.1) and i can not log into icloud.
I get an error saying "You can not log in at this time". I have no hair left on my head because I've pulled it all out!
Now, there are many published fixes for this, but NONE work. I've tried everything I can find:
Yes, I have an AU and US apple ID, and both dont work
I installed ML from a fresh disk wipe + install. No baggage from previous OS's.
Everything is standard, no tricky fixes or apps
No Little snitch installed
Have deleted the ~/Library/App Support/iCloud folder
Have deleted any preference files
Have opened up the permissions on the ~/Library/Caches/iCloud folder
Have reset keychain
Have deleted all references of any @me or @apple accounts
Have re-installed the ML OS from a DIFFERENT bootable USB stick
No proxies, SOCKS, or mods to network
Plain old home WIFI network, never had a problem
Have icloud successfully set up at work (QC 2.8GHZ Mac Pro 2010), on my iPhone, iPad and Macbook Pro - Zero issues
The mac having problems is a 2008 iMac, Core2Duo 2.8ghz Intel w 4gb 1067mhz ram) - Runs well, use for design.
Is it a problem with the iCloudHelper process not having sufficient permission to write to the iCloud user DB? or the Accounts folder?
Have looked into console, and when I try and log into iCloud, I get these three errors. Same every time, no matter which apple ID account you use:
1: AOSKit ERROR: (System Preferences[352]) AOSKC ([email protected]): Failed to store key, couldn't add kc item, error 100013 (service=iCloud, dsid=146089737)
2: AOSKit ERROR: (System Preferences[352]) AOSKC ([email protected]): Failed to store account info key (dsid=146089737).
3: AOSKit ERROR: (System Preferences[352]) Failed to store account info for appleID=[email protected]
Please help! Is this an incompatibiloty with the iMac problem, or a ML problem?
Much appreciated
Rick

Where EXACTLY are you trying to log in to it?
Through your web browser at iCloud.com?
Or through the iCloud system preferences pane on your Mac?

I used my daughter's itunes account to log into icloud but want to now put in my account information. How do I change it without deleting her account?

I used my daughter's itunes id to log into icloud as I forgot my information. Now I have established my account information and want to remove hers to add mine. I am afraid to "delete account" as I fear it will delete her information. How do I change the icloud account?

Go to iTunes menu, STORE and sign out. Then you can sign in from there or create a new account which should match the account you have on your iPad and iPhone.

HT201263 Bought second hand iPhone not realising logged into iCloud, Please help me remedy this problem?

Hi there good people, I recently purchased an iPhone 4 from a sales site on Facebook, I checked to see that the phone was not signed in to App Store/iTunes but didn't occur to me that it could still be logged into iCloud (Which it is) as I thought you could only use 1 Apple ID per handset at any given time. 3 months have passed and all was fine, until today when I dropped the phone and now a box pops up wanting iCloud password every 5 Seconds after I've cancelled the last one. I got in contact with the guy I bought it from but as three months have passed he says he can't remember the password he used and was not able to log out of iCloud because of this. (plus he's switched to Android) I took the phone to my local phone repair shop and they told me there is nothing can be done without the account password, my question is: Will the "Recovery Mode" trick work with this problem? I'm sorry but I simply refuse to believe that there is no solution or way round this... I know Apple are very tight on security but what would I have done if this was a brand new iPhone 6 instead, would I simply accept that I was the proud owner of an extremely expensive house brick? I welcome any advice that might help me to reset the damned phone... Thanking you in advance for your time and effort. Daniel Grant.

Welcome to the Apple community.
Unfortunately, you cannot do very much with your phone unless you get assistance
from the previous owner, they should either provide you with the password to
unlock it or remove their account from the phone entirely remotely through
iCloud.com > Find My Phone.

HT5625 I reset my password, but it still won't let me log into iCloud. I have not ever been able to sign up for it, I don't have the original email to do so. Please help.

I have not been able to log into icloud, nor set it up. It keeps telling me to check my email to set up. There is nothing from apple/icloud there. How do I get another email so I can set it up? Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Please check your inbox again and also the spam/junk folder.

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?

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.
