HT204053 the maximum number of free accounts have been activated on this iPad
My friend gave me new IPad as gift but he used his iCloud ID and I couldn't chang it to my new ID. He gave me his password and all, but I would like to set up my own. How can I do that? iCloud "cannot sign in. the maximum number of free accounts have been activated on this iPad
Error Message: "Cannot sign in. The maximum number of free accounts have been activated on this ipad/iphone"
I encountered the same problem when I purchased a used iPad for my elderly father and couldn't set it up for him. I called Apple Support...
Apple support could NOT help me. I was told there is no way to circumvent the 3 icloud setup limit on iOS devices at their end. I was told to use a different mac or iOS device that hadn't met the 3 x limit.
So, using MY iPad I tried to do that. At first I went to Settings/iCloud. But that is your PRIMARY iCloud account (and this was MY iPad and I didn't want to screw up my own settings!) which you don't want to trash.
After some online research (iMore to be exact) I discovered you can setup a secondary iCloud account using:
Settings/Mail,Contact,Calendars --> Add Acount... -->iCloud --> Get A Free AppleID --> Birthday Q then Security Question - then Name - then Get a free iCloud email address....
After you get to the new iCloud settings page at the end of the signup process - I deselected all the tabs which made the new account "inactive" on my iPad.
Next I went to the used iPad that had the initial problems, and tapped on Settings/iCloud. I signed in with the iCloud account that was newly created and was able to then get an iCloud account to work!
I left the new iCloud account showing on my own iPad (under Mail,Contacts,Calendars) as it is inactive. I am not sure what would happen if I deleted it - it may stop working on my father's iPad then. -

HT204053 The Maximum number of free accounts have been activated on this iPhone
I am trying to setup iCloud account and when I login I see a popup.
The Maximum number of free accounts have been activated on this iPhone.
I have downloaded the Where is my iPhone App to help us locate it in the event I lose it.
My Wife has an iPad3 and has the where is my iPad app.
We have a friend that someone stole her iPad 2 and this is why are chose to use iCloud.
Please let me know the fix.Each device can only set up a limited number of iCloud accounts. Once this maximum number is reached all you can do is re-use one of the accounts previously set up or create a new account to use on another iOS device or Mac. If you wife has an iPad 3, it may be possible to create another iCloud account on her iPad to use on your phone.
To do this, on her iPad go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Add Account, choose iCloud from the list, then enter the Apple ID and password you want to use for your iCloud account and sign in. Do not turn on any data syncing or her data will be uploade to the new account. After setting up the new account, you go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars...tap the name of the new account then tap Delete Account to delete it from her iPad (it will remain in iCloud). You can then go to Settings>iCloud on your phone and enter the ID and password to sign into the new account on your phone. Then turn iCloud data syncing for Contacts, Calendars, etc., to On, and when prompted choose Merge to upload your data to the new account. -
HT204053 The maximum number of free accounts have been activated on this iPad - what to do??
In trying to sign in to my iCloud account on a new (to me) iPad, I get the message that "The maximum number of free accounts have been activated on this iPad".
Anyone know the resolution to this issue? The iPad previously belonged to two other staff members and now won't let me use iCloud.
Thanks!Welcome to the Apple community.
Unfortunately, once all your ICloud accounts have been used up on your device, you cannot create any more, no matter what you do. You will need to either reuse one of the accounts you have already created or use another device to create your account. -
I tried to set up icloud on my iphone 4 and I get this message that "the maximum number of free accounts have been activated on this iphone". My iphone was used by someone else before I got it. How do I deactivate these accounts or overcome this problem?
You were trying to create a new Apple ID for icloud. But once the device reaches is max allowed to create IDs then you can't create more. That's your situation now. To create a new account you must use another device or computer.
You can't deactivate or turn back the clock. -
I have problem in May phone I can't log in into iCloud coz of this problem. The maximum number of free accounts have been activated on this iphone
Signing in with a new ID creates a new iCloud account. However, each device is limited in the number of iCloud accounts that it is allowed to create. Once you reach that limit, you cannot create another account. All you can do is re-use one of the accounts previously created, or create a new account to use on another iOS device or Mac (running OS X Lion or higher), if you have one.

Why am i having this problem on icloud "the maximum number of free account have been activated on this ipad"
Judging from other posts it looks like there is a maximum of 3 accounts that can be created on a device - you could either re-use one of the accounts that you've already created or create a new one on a different device or computer

You can create an iCloud account on another iOS device or a Mac running OS X 10.7.4 or later, then use this account on your phone. If you don't have one, you'll have to find a friend that will let you create one on their device as one of their 3 free accounts.

i bought a second 4s, when i try to make new ID, there is a message comes:cannot sign in the maximum number of free accounts have been activated on this iPhone, is there any way to solve this problem?
Sure. You can do it on a Mac at the following website: https://appleid.apple.com/account

Hy. please help me. what's the problem? when i accessing icloud or find my friend:The maximum number of free accounts have been activated on this iPhone.
Then you'll have to use another iOS device or Mac running OS X Lion or higher to create a new account for you to use on your phone. If you don't have one, perhaps a friend would allow you to create and account on their device (note: this will use one of their three maximum accounts). To do this, they would need to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account (which will delete the account from their device but not from iCloud), then allow you to sign back in with your ID to create the new account. Then tap Delete Account to delete the new account from their device, and finally, sign back in with their iCloud ID to restore their iCloud account to their device. Then you can sign in with your ID on your phone in Settings>iCloud and use the new account.

i got this massege on my iphone the maximum number of free accounts have been activated on this iphone can any one help?
This restriction has no relation to creating free accounts, it means you may not sign in to another free account, on that iDevice because the serial number of the device (on apple's server) has their limit of free accounts associated to it. the only way around this is to use one of the three free accounts on the device which the server has associated, OR have apple reset the account/remove the restriction for that serial number...This has been posted in dozens of discussions, but they continue to ingnore the problem, what's worse is the telephone support is RUDE about it if you inquire.

I have an iPhone 4S and when I try to add an iCloud account is gives me an error "Cannot Sign In, The maximum number of free accounts have been activated on this iPhone." Is there any way to deactivate an account? I have one for myself, one for my family and one for my work. I had all three on my iphone and then I deleted my work. I wanted to get my own person @me.com account. It wouldn't let me create it from my iphone, so I created it from my Macbook Pro. I am trying to add it to my iphone, but it keeps giving me that error. If there is a way I can deactivate my work one so I can use my @me.com personal account?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Unfortunately once all the 3 iCloud accounts have been created on your mobile device, you cannot create any more regardless of what you do. You will need to re-use one of the accounts that you have already created or create your new account on another device or computer.
You should however be able to add existing accounts to your device, are you sure you aren't trying to create on rather than simply use an existing one. -
Can someone please tell me. When trying to sign into icloud. i get the message.. Cannot sign in . The maximum number of free accounts have been activated on this ipad. What do I do ? Hope someone can help.
Use one of the previous accounts that you activated in this iPad or use another iOS device to activate the new one.

I cannot sign into icloud.. It says that the maximum number of free accounts have been activated on this ipad. What can I do ?
You'll have to use a different device to setup iCloud, and then sign in using that account.
Is it a second hand iPad, or have you created multiple accounts on it already for some reason?
Maybe you are looking for
