Hiya... I can't get my iCloud mail account to activate on MacMini running OSX Mountain Lion 10.8.2.
Any thoughts?
Thanks

Be sure the mini is connected to icloud (system preference>icloud) and that you also have mail turned on. Then be sure the mail program has the icloud account defined in it's preferences.

How can I get the iCloud/iTunes password for my (now) deceased Father-in-Law's Imac? I have a list of his passwords, but nothing works!

How can I get the iCloud/iTunes password for my (now) deceased Father-in-Law's iMac? I have a list of his passwords, but nothing works! I know his email, but that account has been cancelled for security purposes, so we can't just request a new one. I tried his security questions to no avail.
Thanks

Since that password is tied to his Apple ID, you will need to contact Apple; as far as I know, it will be a somewhat lengthy procedure and you will need to furnish necessary paperwork (including a death certificate as far as I know). Best to either stop at an Apple store or call them to find out exactly what it is you need to do.

How can i get my icloud restored back to a previous date

Does anyone know how I can get my icloud restored back to a week ago? My two separate apple iPhones had their iCloud accounts merged and I got my personal accounts and work accounts merged. When trying to split them back up again, I deleted all my contacts on icloud and now I can't get them back. can i get my icloud restored? I restored my phone, but that didn't work. Thanks for your help.

A partition is just a section of the disk set aside for a particular purpose. In this case, we're talking about a Mac partition and a Windows partition. They have different formats, which is how the data is stored. The disks that came with your Mac will create the Mac partition when you install, but most likely you'll lose the Windows partition. You've got kind of a mess at this point. What you should do is install the Mac OS and get everything as you want it. Then run Bootcamp to create a Windows partition and let Bootcamp do the Windows installation for you. Grant gave you good advice earlier. Don't let Windows do any partitioning. That's how you got into this mess.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Check you are logged into your store account properly (settings > store). Also check there are no restrictions set that might be causing this (settings > general > restrictions)

Can't get my iCloud to work. What do I do? It won't let me tap on it in Settings.

Can't get my iCloud to work. What do I do? It won't let me tap on it in Settings.

What happens when you tap it?
Try Settings > Store > Apple ID > sing out and back in.
Try a reset... press the home and sleep/lock buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.

UPdated wife's iPhone 4 and now she can't get her ICloud email (old dotmac). Tried new Apple ID, new password. No good. How can I associate her iPhone with her email address?

Call Apple Care and ask for the Account Security Team. They can assist you with your issue of resetting the password and recovering use of the Apple ID.

I don't remember setting a pascode in the restrictions and now I can not get my icloud on, can you help me?

I don't remember setting a pascode in the restrictions and now I can not get my icloud on, can you help me?

If you don't remember the restrictions passcode, your only option is to force the phone into recovery mode and restore it as a new device.
Do NOT restore your backup. The restrictions settings are part of the backup.

I can't get my iCloud to backup anything, even though I could log into it just fine. What am I doing wrong?

I can't get my iCloud to backup anything on my mac book pro. It allows me to log in, etc. but it doesn't allow me to do anything. Please help me out Apple experts!

Make sure you actually have a 2nd Generation Apple TV and that it's on the same Wi-Fi network as your iPad 2. Using your Apple TVs on screen menu, go to Settings > AirPlay and make sure that it's turned on.
On your iPad 2, double tap the Home Button to bring up the App Tray/Switcher. The screen should slide up and you will see some app icons there. Slide them to the right and you should see a Speaker icon, a brightness slider, some iPod music control buttons, and a button with a square and a triangle at the bottom. This button is the Airplay button. Tap on it.
You should see two choices. iPad and Apple TV. If you choose Apple TV, there is a switch that says mirroring. Slide the switch and your content on your iPad should now be mirrored on the TV through the Apple TV. (Some apps don't allow mirroring but most do.)

You can't go to icloud.com using Safari on an iOS device, if that's what you're trying to do. You have to go there from your computer.

Create the account on your computer or other Apple device. Once the account
has been created elsewhere, you will be able to use it on your iPhone.

I can't get the iCloud Contacts and Calendar folders to appear in Outlook 2010 using the iCloud Control Panel.

I can't get the iCloud Contacts and Calendar folders to appear in Outlook 2010 using the iCloud Control Panel. Also the datafile share which ends in .aplzod is not created in Outlook. The Contacts and Calendar are sent to iCloud (verified on iCloud.com) but the iCloud folders are not created in Outlook in the Contacts and Calendar navigation panes.   I get a message toward the end of the sync process indicating that there was an unspecified error. I'm using the newest version of the iCloud Control Panel, the 32 bit version of Outlook 2010, Windows 7 64 bit, an iPhone 3GS, and the latest version of iTunes. Any ideas how to complete the sync process to the end?

Pretty much the same for me: Windows 7 64-bit, Outlook 2010, iCloud Control Panel 1.0.1, iPhone 3GS. Error report at end of setup process is shown below, and has been emailed. Any help please?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You might try a forced shutdown to begin with, hold down the top and home buttons together until the device shuts down, then restart it.

I know this is old now but since the update i can't get into icloud on my phone it keeps asking me to check t & c's and now no emails. Can't connect to server. I have 4S please help :-(

Hi Kellyssi,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If you're being asked repeatedly to check terms and conditions, try restarting and then resetting your iPhone:
