I have a problem with icloud photostream. It seemed to lock up some functions in Photos

After I downloaded icloud control panel and turned on photostream everything worked very well except that there were 599 photos loaded into a new file folder "My Photos"
Ever since then there is the little spinning circle on the screen. I also have lost several functions in Photos.  I can not delete "My Photos" folder or anything in it
I have tried everything I can think of including a system reset.
I need some help with this one!
Thanks,
Bill

This is
Find My iPhone Activation Lock - Apple Support
It is a very successful anti theft device
The only way to activate the iPhone is for the Owner whose Apple id is still on the iPhone to release it ,an easy task if you can find them
There is no other way Activation lock cannot be broken and Apple will not assist you

  • On my Mac Mini, I keep getting this error message: "iCloud encountered an error while trying to connect to the server".  I don't have any problems with iCloud on my laptop / PC.  It works fine... Does anyone know what the problem could be?

    Your Mac must be on Lion (10.7) to run iCloud. Apple had to change the operating system to fully support it. Nevertheless, it is possible to get emails from iCloud without having Lion. Please tell me if this interests you.
    Anyways, here is the link to buy Lion (30 dollars, totally worth the upgrade ): http://itunes.apple.com/be/app/os-x-lion/id444303913?mt=12

    I have a problem with youtube...i can't watch some videos from youtube! They stop after few seconds of playing!! what can i do to fix it??

    Try loading the same video in different browsers (Firefox, Chrome, Safari and Internet Explorer are your best options). If the issue is across all of them, make sure you've downloaded the latest version of Flash at http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
    If it's still stopping after that...Do the tried and tested method for everything: reset your router.

  • I have a problem with iCloud., I have a problem with iCloud.

    My imac has software version 10.9.
    Whenever I do something related with icloud I get a message asking for my password.  OK I know the password for my apple ID but that is different to the icloud email and password.
    I changed email provider a while ago and thought I had updated all my IDs, but still get asked for the old password for the old email address for icloud.
    I need to change the icloud ID to the newer email address and change the password.
    How do I do that on the Mac?
    I also have the same problem with Ipad, when I switch on the pop up box appears asking for the password and shows the old email address.
    I need to change this email address as well but the ipad will not allow me to enter the system at all because I do not enter the correct password.
    I have the imac, an iphone5 and two ipads on my account, can I change all of the ID's by using the imac?
    Will I resolve the problem on the ipad if i use the back up from the imac.
    Thanks

    Firstly, you need to change your details with Apple,  Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account. You may have already done this.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
    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.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)
    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 > iTunes & App store, scroll down and tap your ID)
    If you are using iMessages or FaceTime, you will also need to log out and into your ID there too.

  • I have a problem with iCloud - i have great internet access at work, but slow internet access at home (less than 1MB/PS) and I use the full range of iCloud syncing facilities. How can i make my devices ONLY sync at work.. and not at home??

    As stated above, if i go out during the day, buy an app, download a song and take 20 photo's when i get home my devices will all take 30mins to sync before i can even browse websites or check my facebook at home.
    Can i set up my iCloud to only sync when i am on my work Wi-fi...?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Not unless you stop it connecting to wifi at home.

  • Problem with 2 websites, can open websites and execute some functions but then it stops.

    ie. www.thankyou.com.au - can get into the wedding registry listing requested but when I click on the one I want to open I get the message 'session timed out, return to home page and login again'; and
    aussiefarmer.com.au - can open and login, view order options but cannot save order - saving icon appears and keeps circling.
    Advised to check cookies and proxy settings - these seem to be ok.

    One solution is to change the sort album titles to

    Suddenly i have a problem with connection to iCloud.
    Dokuments created on iMac in Pages or Numbers are not transfered to iCloud. Not uploaded to iCloud. There is a sign  (small shape of iCloud), that they are waiting to be uploaded to iCloud.
    I think the iCloud is OK.

    But not on iMac.

    You need to use the credentials for the iCloud account that was used to turn on the Find my iPhone service.
    If you can't remember yours, you can recover it here: https://iforgot.apple.com/appleid
    If you've been walking around for 2 years with someone else's account set up for Find my iphone, then you'll have to get hold of that individual. If you can't, there is no way to bypass activation lock.

  • I have a problem with mi iPad 3 and iCloud.

    I have a problem with my iPad 3 and iCloud.
    First. When i try to turn on the automatico downloads of apps and music on my ipad ican't. I put on the buttons but they automaticly turn into off.
    Second. I have an macbook with iWork and mi iPad has iWork too but i can use iCloud because the documents that i create in the iPad doen't go online.
    I did a little research and i think the troubles are because apple didn't associate mi ipad with my apple id, i had retored mi ipad a lot of times and it doen's fix the problem.
    What do i can do?
    I'm sorry but i'm learning english, so i'm sorry if you have a hard time trying to understand.
    Thank you

    Hi Omar1510,
    If resetting your iPad allows it to charge, but only temporarily, you may want to make sure that you have your data backed up and try restoring the device (you may want to test the charging before reloading your data). You may find the following article helpful:

    If you had already removed the device from 'Find My iPhone' in iCloud, then you jus tneed to powercycle the device in order to activate it.
    Source: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4515
    "After the device is removed from the previous owner’s account, turn the device off by pressing and holding the Sleep/Wake button located on the top-right side of the device. Then restart your device and proceed with device setup as you would normally."
    If it has not been removed, then the activation lock is still active.
    If the previous owner cannot remove the device from their account there is nothing you can do unless the place you purchased it from will give you a refund.
    Activation Lock: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5818
    What if I purchase a device that is still linked to the previous owner's account?
    Contact the previous owner as soon as possible and ask them to erase the device and remove it from their account. For complete instructions, read how to remove a device from a previous owner's account.
    How do I check for Activation Lock before purchasing a used device?
    When purchasing an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch from someone other than Apple or an authorized Apple reseller, it is up to you to ensure that the device has been erased and is no longer linked to the previous owner’s account.
    Follow each of these steps to make sure that you can use the device you purchase:
    Turn the device on and slide to unlock.If the passcode lock screen or the home screen appears, the device has not been erased. Ask the seller to completely erase the device by going to Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings. Do not take ownership of any used iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch until it has been erased.
    Begin the device setup process.After choosing a language, choosing a country, and connecting to a network, the device will begin activation. If you are asked for the previous owner’s Apple ID and password, the device is still linked to their account. Hand the device back to the seller and ask them to enter their password. If the previous owner is not present, they can remove the device from their account by signing in to icloud.com/find. Do not take ownership of any used iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch until it has been removed from the previous owner’s account.
    You will know that a device is ready for you to use when you are asked to “Set up your iPhone", “Set up your iPad", or “Set up your iPod” during the device setup process.

    Hi Amir,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like you need to reset the password for your iCloud account. The article linked below will walk you through the possible ways to reset the password for your account.
    If you forgot your Apple ID password
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5787
    Also, make sure you update your  devices after changing the password.
    iCloud: Change your iCloud password
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ph2617
    After changing your iCloud password, make sure you update it on all your devices and in any email apps you use to get your iCloud email.
    On your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch: Go to Settings > iCloud, then tap your iCloud account.
    On a Mac: Open iCloud preferences.
    On a Windows computer: Open the iCloud Control Panel.
    In your email apps: Check the help provided for the email apps you’re using.
    If you set up iCloud on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, make sure to set up a passcode lock on your device (Settings > General > Passcode Lock) for added security.
    I hope this helps.

  • HT4864 I have huge and returning problems with iCloud. I cannot send e.mails and there is nothing wrong with my settings. It started yesterday. Does anyone no the reason?

    What is wrong with Apple. This is the third time during autumn, that I experience problems with icloud. Apparently yesterday once again there was an outage with icloud and the problem was solved, but NO it is not solved. I still can not send e.mails and I am probably not the only one. Each time I talk to a technician from Apple, the only thing they do is to uninstall my icloud and reinstall it again. With no results. A waste of time. Please make your system work and give a better support. Who do I call to get a proper assistance???
    And why can I not select icloud under my products??

    Could be many things, we should start with this...
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    *Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
    (Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
    If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.
