HT4759 I need to set up icloud mail keep getting message about non traditional roman letters?

I continually get a message in read telling me I can't use non-traditional Roman letters in the e-mail account.

Is your email address using strange letters (non Roman)? You might try creating an alias email address using normal letters. See link...

Admitedly I may not have this right. There was a post a week or so ago regarding this problem. I just don't recall whether it was the primary email address of the icloud account that was the problem or something else. At any rate, look at this link, it might help.

How can I back up ipad on icloud? Keep getting message "There was a problem completing the back up. Please try again later." I have, many times! The trouble shooting info does not resolve the problem.

How can I back up ipad on icloud? I keep getting the message "There was a problem completing the back up. Please try again later." I have done so MANY times! I've followed the instructions ( I believe!) and the trouble shooting info does not resolve the problem. Can you please help?

I had this exact same problem because the router i had in my house was having interference issues and the speed was too slow to do it.
I would download a speedtest app on your iPad and see how fast your internet is. I think the app is called speedtest in fact.

HT4759 I wanted to login to iCloud from my ipad to view my calendar. The message was that I needed to set up iCloud on the device but I have and it won't give me the login screen. What am I missing? Thank you.

I wanted to login to iCloud from my ipad to view my calendar. The message was that I needed to set up iCloud on the device but I have and it won't give me the login screen. What am I missing? Thank you.

I'm assuming you are trying to log in using Safari on your ipad - if this is the case, you can't do that on an iOS device. You must use the Calendar app on the device. If you are using someone else's device, then you have a problem doing this. I just tried using Chrome on an iPad and that also doesn't work. If there's on nearby, use a computer's browser, that works.

Hi adamsfly,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. Based on what you stated, it sounds like you changed your email address and iCloud is looking to sign in with the old Apple ID email. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.

I have an ipod touch (4th gen) and just bought a clock/charger/player. It says I need ios 4.3. I keep getting a message saying I can download 6.? but it will wipe out everything on my ipod. Is there a way to get the ios without wiping out my files?

There is no supported method to "downgrade" iOS on any device. If you update, you will get the latest iOS for your device, which will be iOS 6.1.3. You cannot go backwards to iOS 4.3
If you have never backed up in either iCloud or iTunes, then upgrading to iOS 6.1.3 will involve restoring your device as part of the upgrade. Without a backup to restore from, you will loose everything that is on it.
You should first connect to iTunes with your computer, sync your device without upgrading and create an up to date backup of everything. Then use the upgrade option in iTunes to update your iOS.
However, if the dock device strictly requires iOS 4.3, it will not work, as you cannot downgrade iOS. There simply is no mechanism from Apple to do that.

Since upgrading to 10.7.2 to use iCloud, i keep getting a message with ubd wants to use the login keychain, anyone for help to how to get rid of this...

since upgrading to 10.7.2 to use iCloud, i keep getting a window message with ubd wants to use the login keychain, i put the right password but it keeps coming back, anyone for help to how to get rid of this...

This is what I did and it seems to have worked so far. While that little annoying box is up you need to open the Keychain access by:
going to applications -> open utilities folder -> click to open Keychain Access
Now here is the stupid part, you have to continue to press the cancel button on the "ubd wants to use login keychain" box for the kaychain window to open. Once you have keychain access open go to:
the top of your monitor and select "Keychain Access" right next to the little apple logo -> click preferences in the options panel-> the preference box will open now -> click "Reset My Default Keychain" -> another box will pop up that says "Please enter your login password. This password will be used to create your new keychain" (of course this is assuming that you use a login password to access your mac) -> enter your login password and a box shows up that says "created a new empty 'Login' keychain"
After that you should be good to go. This new keychain you created with your login password overides the old keychain. The old keychain is still available in the Keychain's folder but is not being used and therefor can be deleted. All you have to do now is press ok, and your good. If the "ubd wants to use login keychain" box is still there after you reset your keychains just hit cancel and it should be gone for good or you can enter your login password.
Is this a fixall that will work forever? I have no idea but doing this has allowed me to access my network at work and all the servers I need to get to.
Oh and one more thing. You may need to press cancel on the ubd box throughout this entire process, I just gon in the habit of clicking a button hitting cancel on the ubd box and the new window would pop up.
I hope this helps you! Sorry if it's long, I was trying to be as detailed as possible to make it easier. Let me know how it goes.
