TS3988 I cannot sign into my icloud account

I cannot sign into my iCloud account, it keeps saying this; This Apple ID is Valid but is not an iCloud account, so what is?

That message usually means that you have not set up iCloud using a device with iOS 5 or a Mac with OS X Lion.

Welcome to the Apple community.
If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact Apple ID Support, upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
The operator will take you through some steps you may have already tried, however they need to be sure they have exhausted all usual approaches before trying to reset your account, so you should try to be helpful and show patience with the procedure.
The operator will need to verify they are speaking to the account holder and may ask you some questions that only the account holder could know, and you will need to answer them if the process is to proceed.
Once the operator has verified your identity they will send a message through to your device which contains an alpha numeric code, which you will need to read back to them.
Once this has been completed they will send an email to your iCloud email address after a period of 24 hours, so you should check that mail is enabled in your devices iCloud settings.
Upon receipt of the email, use the reset link provided to reset your password, after which you should be able to make the adjustments to iCloud that you wish to do.

HT204053 I cannot sign into my iCloud account. My MAC has my incorrect apple id but it is correct on all other devices (ISO). How can I get this corrected? Thanks!

i cannot sing into my iCloud account on my mac. IT has the wrong apple ID and my apple ID that has been verified does not work. My other devices have my correct apple id and I can sign in. This is very frustrating. Thanks

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.

I cannot sign into my iCloud account from my MAC. In the System Preferences I have two mail accounts iCloud

I cannot sign into iCloud Mail from my MAC. I have tried everything that I can think of to change in System Preferences, even deleted the mailbox and reinstalled it ..... nothing works. It is fine on my iPhone 4S!!! Please help ... about to go crazy! There seem to be two accounts one from MobileMe (mail) and iCloud (calendar and contacts find my phone). I have tried moving the mail to iCloud and unticking it on MobileMe but it will not allow me to submit it!

Cannot sign into my icloud account on my phone

Hello
I am in Mexico and I cannot signed into my account, plus I don't have any service...

Not sure what it is you did. If you have your contacts saved in iCloud (you can check them by signing into your Apple/iCloud account at iCloud.com - check the Contacts there), then changing your Apple ID will have no effect on your iCloud content. Also, when you Sign Out of the iCloud account on your device, you are given the option to keep the Contacts on that device. If you select "Keep", then when you sign back on with the updated Apple/iCloud ID, it will ask you if you want to merge the contacts on your device with your iCloud account. If you select "Merge", then it merges them.
Also, what the instructions above are having you do is change the Apple ID that the iCloud account is linked to. It is the same Apple account, you are just changing the ID itself. The iCloud account associated with that ID is not changing or being affected in any way. If you created a new Apple ID, then that is the problem. A new ID would be linked to a new/different iCloud account.
However, either way, if you keep your contacts and then merge them even if you set up a separate ID altogether (which is not what the instructions are telling you to do), your contacts would be intact.
Cheers,

Will I be notified on my iphone or ipad or email if someone sign into my icloud account on a computer instead of on an apple device?

My iphone4 and my ipad mini were synced to my computer, but now I don't seem to be able to see all of my content nor my photo stream. I did see everything there several weeks ago, so I know it worked. How do I access those from my computer. I can't find how to sign on.

I signed on to iCloud, but it only shows the icons for Mail, Contacts, Calendar, Notes, Reminders, Find Phone, Numbers, Pages and Keynotes. Where's everything else ?
What you've outlined in this part of the post is all that icloud stores for you outside of the backup. If you want to restore from the icloud backup you will then have for all practical purposes a carbon restoration back to your device if you restore from the icloud backup.

I want to delete photos that are on my iphone, by doing so from the computer, not my phone.
Syncing your device with itunes will then enable you to remove whatever photos you wish to remove from your device deleting them with the computer and not the iphone.

HT5625 i cannot log into my icloud account because if forget my password. What to do now?

waht to do i change my apple ID but my icloud setting is the same, i dont know what to do, and how to change my icloud ID, please help me.
Thaks

To change the iCloud ID you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iDevice, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use. If you don't know the password for your old ID, or if it isn't accepted, and if your old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll. When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

All of a sudden I cannot log into my icloud account

All of a sudden I cannot log into my Icloud account. Not on my phone and not on a PC. I found a thread that said the first step was to try to sign in to the apple ID to make sure I had my credentials correct. I have done that, so I know I have the correct credentials. My phone has been connected continuously for some time now including this morning. But now I get a connection error. Both on my phone and on the PC.

Seems to be up and down at the moment. For the past hour or so I haven't been able to access via the web or from mail apps (phone, desktop, etc.). Some mail just came through on my phone but it now cannot connect again.
FWIW, system status is green across the board, but that's always laggy and inaccurate: https://www.apple.com/support/systemstatus/

So I bought an iphone 4 from ebay and when I got it it was already signed into an icloud account. When I contacted the seller he said he would try to get the password but i haven't heard from him. How can I sign out of her icloud w/out the password

TS3989 New MacAir but photostream does not work. Message though everything is on. "In order to use Photo Stream, you have to be signed into your iCloud account in System Preferences." And,

New computer but Photostream does not work. I am signed into my account but get the following message: In order to use Photo Stream, you have to be signed into your iCloud account in System Preferences. I go to system preferences and then get a message that says that my account cannot be accessed. However, I am using my icloud account for email and other items and it works fine. Any thoughts?

Are you getting this messages in iPhoto? If so try the following (again?):
Log out of iCloud in the System/iCloud preference pane and disable Photo Stream in iPhoto's Photo Share preference pane. Then log back in and re-enable, respectively. That should jump start Photo Stream.

Hi,
Are you running any Anti-virus software or do you have your firewall turned on? If so, disable them and try again. If that doesn't work, delete the iCloud account and then sign it back on again.
Make sure you are running the most current version of the iCloud Control Panel:

HT201317 can i sign into my icloud account from a friends computer so i can get to my pictures

Can I sign into my icloud account from a friend's computer so i can get to my pictures?

What you need is a file named Domain.sites (iWeb 2) or Domain.sites2 (iWeb 3). Copy it from your laptop to your other computer at home.
It's located in your Users/Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder. Place it in the same folder on the other computer.
All the files for the site are contained in that file/package. After editing you will have to publish the changes to your hosting server.
NOTE: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Home/Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible in Lion or Mt. Lion enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and press the Return key - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
For Mavericks, 10.9, go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring the this window:
where you can check the Show Library Folder checkbox.
To open your domain file in Lion or later or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an application.
do shell script "/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"delay 1
tell application "iWeb" to activate
You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
Just launch the application, find and select the domain file in your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder that you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
WARNING: iWeb Switch Domain will overwrite an existing Domain.sites2 file if you select to create a new domain in the same folder. So rename your domain files once they've been created to something other than the default name.
