I cannot sign in to icloud because of problems with server

I have Lost It All!
I cannot find all of my iTunes info.
I tried signing into iCloud due to a message "problem with server".

I have used the solution below to fix mine and others that have run into this issue.
Start --> Programs --> Accessories (Right Click on Command Prompt) --> Run as Administrator
then type in: "Netsh winsock reset" (-without the quotes-)
Hit enter, restart PC, iCloud For PC should now connect without any server errors
(This solutions will work in some instances when trying to fix errors associated when you are unable to connect to iTunes also.)

HT202667 I did not do my research before changing my Apple ID from an outdated email address to a current one. I just changed and verified and though I was all set. WRONG! Now I cannot sign in to iCloud because it will not let me enter the new Apple ID! H

I did not do my research before changing my Apple ID from an outdated email address to a current one. I just changed and verified and though I was all set. WRONG! Now I cannot sign in to iCloud because it will not let me enter the new Apple ID. I read the 10/30/13 randers4 post to just change your Apple ID back then sign in and change it to the new email address again and then you can sign in, but I cannot change back to the prior email address Apple ID because that is no longer an active email account (or at least not mine). Any thoughts on how to get signed into iCloud when it does not allow me to type in the new Apple ID and the old Apple ID no longer exists.
I see that many people have asked, but no one has come up with a solution that I found.
Thanks for any help!

This did not work for me. My old email account for iCloud still pops up on my screen every time I open my macbook. I've deleted it, reset it, every thing I can think of and it still shows up. I think six months of this is more than enough time to wait.

Cannot sign in to ichat because my apple id is a hotmail address?!

I cannot sign in to ichat because my apple id is a hotmail address. For some reason I cannot make another account, i get the following message "You cannot create an Apple ID using a MobileMe account. If this is your email address, it is also your Apple ID.": However I do not recall ever making a MobileMe account since i don't have an Iphone. What can I do? i already tried using different email addresses but i cant seem to make a @mac.com address. Really don't understand why?!

Hi,
Of the IDs from Apple (As opposed to those used to Create an ID) only the @mac.com and MobilMe ones work as Valid AIM Names.
New MobileMe (@Me.com) names are not possible until the iCloud launch.
@mac.com name require that you link it to another Email.
However that Email must NOT be one already used for another Apple ID
(The password also has to be 16 characters or Less due to the Limit on this at AIM)

You need to return it to the seller and get your money back. You cannot reset or use the device with another AppleID installed unless you know the password for that ID.
If the device has been jailbroken, no one on here can give you any further help...the Terms of Use prohibit us from doing so.

If you have a verified rescue email then you can get an email sent to that email address to reset the security questions as shown in the article below:

If you do not have access to the rescue email or you do not receive the reset email then you will need to contact AppleCare for assistance:

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.

HT5622 Can't sign up for iCloud because ID is tied to old email

The Apple ID I've been using for the last six years is tied to an old email that I can't remember the password for anymore. This means that I've never been able to sign up for iCloud because I have no way of clicking the verification email. I've never cared until Yosemite came out and has all these awesome features that need iCloud to work. This is the ID i've go my iPhone using. Is there like a procedure to get and ID switched to a new email?

You can change the primary email account associated with your Apple ID to a new email account which you have access to as explained here: Change your Apple ID. Once you've done that, you can create your iCloud account by going to System Preferences>iCloud, signing in with the ID, then checking the items you want to sync with iCloud. Once you have created the account on your Mac, go to Settings>iCloud on your iOS devices, sign in with the same ID, then turn on the items that you want to sync with iCloud. There are more details on setting up iCloud here: https://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/ios.html.
If you are sign into the old ID for other services, you'll need to sign out, then sign back in with the updated ID. For example, if you are signed into the old ID for iMessage on your phone, you would go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with the updated ID.

I cannot sign in to icloud

I cannot sign in to icloud,
It said "the maximum numbers of free account have been activated for this iphone"
What is that mean?

You'll get that message if your device has already been used to create 3 different iCloud accounts on the device itself. You have to create the new account on your computer, then set it up on your phone. There is no other way around this limitation.

You might wish to return it or contact Apple using Express Lane (select your country, navigate to iCloud help and enter the serial number of one of your devices)

Are you trying to restore via itunes or icloud? Which ever one you're doing, try the other.
Its most important to make sure itunes is updated, any security software is disabled, and to try another usb port/cord (if using itunes on a computer)

When working to convert an open PDF to WORD I am getting a request to sign in and then get a message that I cannot sign in due to a "network problem"?

Can anyone help me with this issue? I try to convert an open PDF to WoRD. When I am asked to sign into my account I get an error message that says I cannot sign in due to a Network Problem.

Sara:
A little more cumbersome but going to the AdobeAcrobat.com works.
Thanks for the help.
Have a great day.

My contacts deleted repeatedly every two days. It's seems that it's happen because some problem with my iCloud. Suddenly the icloud pop-ups to enter a password. What could it be?

iCloud is not compatible with Snow Leopard, that is your problem.
A quick way out is to purchase Soho Organizer which is compatible, even when running on Snow Leopard, it will correctly handle Contacts and Calendars from iCloud. $100, 2 user license.
Soho Organizer
There is a free trial if you want to try it.
