I am trying to set up my iCloud on my iPod

I am trying to set up my iCloud account on my iPod using my current Apple ID but it says that my Apple ID is valid but I have used all the free accounts on the device. Can anyone help me to set it up? I way to use my current Apple ID plus I have no idea how I used all the accounts

Each iOS device can have a maximum of three iCloud accounts. After that you can only re-use one of the accounts you already set up. If you have another iOS device you could create a new account on that if you haven't used all three, then use it on your iPod Touch. Otherwise you'll have to remember the ID you used for one of the accounts already set up and sign in with that again.

HT204053 how do i verify my icloud I've been trying to set up my iCloud account for the past two days and it's telling me to check my email to verify. There's nothing there. I can log in with my Apple id but that's where I'm at. It's driving me nuts.

Have you tried your spam folder? it could have gone there by default. also, are you sure you put the correct email in for iCloud?

TS4036 I have a Macbook pro and I'm trying to set up my ICloud on it, and when I go to Preferences, there is NO ICloud there. How can I get ICloud back into "my preferences" to set it up?

I have a MacBook Pro, its 1 year old. I'm trying to set up my ICloud on it, and when I go to "preferences", (it says to go to "Preferences" in the instructions,) and then "click" on "ICloud", but my ICloud is not there. How can I get "ICloud back into "my preferences".

Welcome to the Apple Community.
This suggests you don't have the right operating system. OS X 10.7.2 or better is required for iCloud, which operating system do you have.

If you see the white WiFi bars in the upper left corner, that simply means that the iPad has detected a WiFi network, and that does not mean that you are connected to the Internet.
Can you open web sites with Safari?

When trying to set up automatic syncing , on my iPod Nano, I get a notice that I am synced to another unknown computer. How do I get unsynced from this other computer ? Have I been hacked ?

Well, most of what we can tell you is already stated in the message you are getting. A phone can only sync with one library at a time. You have apparently synced your phone with a different iTunes library in the past, or changes have been made to this library so the phone no longer recognizes it as the library with which it was synced. To know which you will have to provide the information.
If you bought them using the AppleID you use with this phone it may simply be easier to re-download them directly to the phone rather than sync them, though you will want to resolve that issue at some point.

I just upgraded to Lion. I was trying to set up the iCloud and it asked for my "login" keychain password. I've never been asked for that before. I've tried every password I can think of and nothing works. Is there a way to reset the keychain password?

I just upgraded to Lion. I was trying to set up iCloud and it asked for my "login" keychain password. I've never been asked for the keychain password before. I've tried every password I can think of and nothing works. I'm normally asked for the password to my machine when upgrading software, signing on, etc. but this is different apparently. I tried the same password and it didn't work either. I read a couple of posts and they all want to take me through Applications/Utilities but that requires knowing your password in order to change it. I don't know it. Don't remember ever setting up a keychain password. Does anyone know how to change the keychain password if you don't know the keychain password???

Most of the time your Keychain password is the same as your login password. If you configured your computer to log you in automatically, you may not have used your login password in so long you forgot it.
There is no way to retrieve the "login" Keychain password, but you can reset the Keychain from the Preferences menu: select it in the Keychain Access menu and select "Reset My Default Keychain". This will create a new, empty Keychain but the old one will be saved should you ever remember its password.
The result of this is that you will have to supply passwords for everything that requires it, since without your Keychain they will no longer automatically fill themselves. However, once you supply them and store them in your new Keychain, they will be remembered.

So, I am trying to set up my iCloud account.

I am trying to set up my new iCloud account, however, the email that iCloud automatically set me up with is a very old email and I'd prefer to use a newer one. Is it possible if i delete this account I can make a new one with a new email? Or will it just be completely erased? Thank you!

The emailaddress that makes your Apple ID is not the email that iCloud sets up for you.
You can set up iCloud email at iCloud.com
There you can login with your Apple ID (which apparently is your aol address) and password.
Once, logged in, click on the mail icon.
It will the assist you in setting up an iCloud email address which will be a @me.com address.
Unfortunately, you will thereafter not yet be able to change your Apple ID to your newly created icloud @me.com address, because for some reason, that is not yet allowed (I presume that Apple has yet to update there Apple ID system for that).

TS3988 I am trying to set a new iCloud account up on my iPad - how do I delete my old account?

I set up a new iTunes account for my family and want to apply it to our iPad. Since the whole family uses it i want a seperate iTunes and iCloud account while keeping my old iTunes account dedicated to my iPhone and iPod only. How can I remove my old iTunes account from the iPad and set up new iCloud account.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
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 > store, scroll down and tap your ID)

HT204053 I am trying to set up my icloud account. It is telling me my account is not verified to check my email for verification. It is telling me to check my email at my Apple account? Everything is greyed out on the screen. Is it safe to delete this acc

Hi.I am having difficulty setting up my icloud account on my iphone4. It's telling me Account not verified and to check my email at my apple account.The screen is greyed out and i cannot switch on any of the apps.Also icloud backup is off. Is it safe to delete this account? will it erase everything on my phone??

Make sure you are checking the email address you used to set up your iCloud account. 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.

I want to set up my icloud into my ipod fourth generation, but i dont know how to.

I really want to download icloud to my ipod fourth generationm, but i cant. i went to apple.com to help me how to set up my icloud, but it told me to go to settings, and then general, and then software update to see if i can install the latest IOS. The thing is i dont have a tab that says software update. how do i update the latest IOS and how do i install ICloud?!

You will have to update your iPod Toudn to the latest iOS version (iOS 6) before you can use iCloud (or see the Software Update setting that article was talking about). To do this, do the following (the first 5 are precautions prior to updating; you will update at step 6):
Update all your apps so they will work with iOS 6.
Connect your iPod Touch to your computer and open iTunes. If it prompts you that there is an update available and asks if you want to update, decline.
Sync your iPod Touch to create a new backup and to transfer any purchases to your iTunes library.
Import your photos and videos to your computer, as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.
Back up your contacts separately. If you are syncing them with a supported program such as Outlook they are already backed up. If not, download and use the app My Contacts Backup. This will back up your contacts as an attachment to an email. Send this email to yourself; if necessary, you can later open it on your iPod Touch and tap the attachment to re-import your contacts.
Now you can safely update by clicking on the name of your iPod Touch on the left side of iTunes, then going to the Summary tab to the right, and click on Check For Update (might just say Update).
Pay attention to the status information at the top of the iTunes screen and any prompts you see on your iPod Touch to be sure you don't disconnect it from your computer before the update is finished. After it is done updating you can set up iCloud as described here: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/ios.html, starting at Step 2.

Trying to set up kiddos e-mail on ipod touch

I am trying to set up my kid's email on the Ipod touch, keeps giving me error. I think I am going wrong with the IMAP vs POP. Which one am I supposed to be using--feeling very stupid right now)-: Thanks for any help I can get!!

Only few accounts/providers allow you to select IMPA or POP3. Usually you have no choice and you have to use the type that the provider provides. Have yo looked at the email support webpage for the provider? If you state the name of the provider someone here may be able to help.

I keep trying to set up my icloud on my iphone 3gs and I go to settings it says verify account with email, it sends me to my email account but there is no email to verify. How do I get icloud to send my another email?

Please help with this. I cannot get an email to verify my icloud so i can set it up, please someone help me.

Welcome to the Apple community.
First, you may wish to check that your filtering and mail rules are not placing Apples email in your junk folder or even deleting it completely. If you have verified that this is not the case:
Put in a request for another verification e-mail to be sent to you.
Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account.

TS3989 I have iphone and ipad and windows 7. trying to set OPTIONS on icloud photostream on my windows 7 screeen. Nothing happens when i hit the photostream options button.

Cannot open OPTIONS for photostream.

Is the stream actually working at the min? Are you just wanting to change the settings?
If it isn't working, you could try the following things:
Can you log out of the control panel? If so try logging out, restart the pc then log back in again.
If that doesnt help, uninstall icloud from the pc, restart, then reinstall.
If you still have no joy and really want the photostream to work you need to check your permissions. If you right click on the icloud icon in your start up menu you can open the file location. There you will find about 8 apple files such as 'applephotostreams'. right click on each and go to security, make sure you have full control of each file. I am not sure how much this has to do with it but I have seen other people suggest it on other threads.
If that still doesn't help you could try making a new user acount on your pc and setting up icloud on there. This worked for me (no idea why!). I just started using a new user account and left my old one for the kids to use but if you have all your stuff on your original one you could set the photo stream to download to a public file so you can view it from any user account. Or move the pics to a public file fter the have downloaded into the file icloud automatically makes for you.
Hope you sort it out!

Trying to set up my iCloud on my BBerry Bold 9930

I'm using all the right settings (imap.mail.me.com) but I keep getting login errors even though my user name and password are coorect. And no, the answer isn't to get an iPhone. I like my real phone...leave the Fisher Price toys for the kiddies...lol.

imap.mail.me.com is correct; have you enabled SSL for incoming and outgoing, with the correct ports? - please see
iCloud: Mail Server settings
if you haven't already. One poster found it worked after he'd changed the iCloud password, which seems a bit odd but possibly worth trying.

Hi,
As regardss to the iChat and iChat Sharing categorisation you have used.
In iChat 6 (lion) and Messages (Mountain Lion) the apps login to AIM and to Me.com
The Login to Me.com allows AIM to verify the password to the iCloud issued names (@me.com and @iCloud.com)
This "Dual" login also prevents the newer iCloud issued name from using this site
(it has extra Privacy settings that iChat can't access for your AIM and Aim valid Accounts)
Ignoring the @mac.com and MobileMe entries in the Add Account Screen in iChat and using the AIM one does not get around this issue.
AIM and @mac.com names still work in older versions of iChat.
The short answer is that iCloud issued Apple IDs do not work in iChat 5 or Earlier.
