I sign in to iCloud with my iTunes login and it states that I have a valid iTunes login but not iCloud. How do I set up an iCloud login?

I am trying to sign into iCloud from my laptop Windows 7 computer! I sign into iCloud using my iTunes ID and Password. I get a message telling me, "This is a valid iTunes ID and password, but not for iCloud." So how do you sign into iCloud? I have no problem signing into iCloud from my Android device (Kindle). How do I sign into iCloud on my laptop computer?
Thank you in advance for your reply!

Your iTunes your username and password can be the same as your Apple ID. I suspect you have more than one Apple ID.
You can't merge IDs. You have to Sign out of an ID then Sign in with the other ID if you have purchased under two different accounts.
Confused? You aren't alone.

I have icloud installed on a pc when I sign in it says I have a valid apple account but not an icloud account

I have icloud installed on my pc,when I sign in it says that I have a valid apple account but not an icloud account

You are getting this message because you are trying to create an iCloud account on a PC. You can only create iCloud account on an iOS device (iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch) running iOS 5 or higher, or on a Mac running OS X Lion (10.7.5) or higher. After creating your account on one of these devices you will then be able to sign into the account using this ID on your PC.

I only show one iCloud on my IPhone that can do a restore. I synced it with my MacBook Pro and I think that may have messed things up. Prior to that I have several backups. Will a "genius" be able to access the info I need?

If things seem to be going haywire with your phone, it seems that it MAY be a software issue.
Now, that being said, that does not necessarily mean that it is a virus. Software issues do happen sometimes. It is probably just coincidence.
What you need to do is restore the device using iTunes. This will fix any software issues. After you have done this, you can restore from an iCloud backup.
iCloud does not back up the actual software, so no, the "virus" would not have gotten into the backups.
The link below provides steps on restoring your device using iTunes as well as how to restore from an iCloud backup.

I log in with my itunes login - it tells me i have a valid apple id, but not a validi cloud account. Help please???

Hi, I have just downloaded icloud, its on my desktop fine. When I try to log-in with my usual itunes id, it tells me - I have a valid apple id but not an icloud account. Am I being dumb or should I be doing something else? - please help, its doing my head in....

You should have been assigned an @me.com email address, which is the login. If you moved from MobileMe "paid" then that will be the Apple ID to use.

You are logging in iCloud for the first time. In this case, first you need to log in iCloud on an iPhone, iPad, iPod touch or Mac. See > http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup
If you have not got a device to set iCloud up, you cannot use it. You can only use iCloud on your PC if you have got an Apple device

HT204053 I can't log on to icloud from my Windows 7 PC. It says it's a valid Apple ID, but not icloud. When I try to log in from my original ID, it says invalid.

Are you trying to login to an account you already made (on an iPhone or similar) or create a new iCloud account?

You really need a newer Mac Mini with a true HDMI output, because that Mac Mini's DVI output does not support Audio.
You might try a 3.5mm to RCA adapter
from the Mac Mini's headphone jack to the TV's audio input,
but that would require being able to select the Audio input in the TVs menu while using it's HDMI input.
Optionally you could also use an external 2.1 Speaker System or patch the audio from the Mac Mini to your home stereo system to enhance that older Mac Mini's audio.

When I try to access the answer is that mine is a valid Apple ID but not valid for iCloud also if I've obtained confirmation by mail of my account

To use iCloud, you must first set it up on an iOS device or a Mac.

Hi tinashah817,
Was this book downloaded using iBooks, or from another application? If it was from iBooks you will need to install that application to delete it.
See this article about managing your iBooks library on your iPhone -
iBooks: Tips for managing your iBooks library and storage on iOS devices
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5544
Once the book has been deleted from the iPhone you can uninstall the iBooks application if you so desire.

HT1349 I get a message that says I have a valid apple ID but not an icloud ID

I'm trying to run the icloud control panel from a Windows 7. Im able to sign in to the icloud website, but not the control panel. I've changed my Apple ID. I've unistalled the control panel. I've changed my internet browser, but when I try to log in to the control panel it tells me that though my Apple ID is valid, it is not an icloud ID. I follow the "forget password" link on the control panel sign in window to change my icloud ID, but it changes the apple ID and I still cant get into the control panel with that ID.
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
~ Seth

Hello justwannalisten1
You would need to convert your Apple ID into an iCloud account on either an iOS device or on a Mac. Check out the article below for more info about creating an iCloud account.

Every time Firefox opens, I get new tab, with my desired page as a tab that I have to click on to get to. How do I go back to how it was in previous versions?

After updating to the newest version of Firefox, when it opens I get two tabs, and the one that comes up on my screen is new tab, with my homepage on the other, which requires that I click on it to go there. Also when I click on a link the same thing happens, a new tab page comes up, with what I clicked on as another tab that I have to click on to get to. This is actually quite annoying and inconvenient. How do I go back to the way that it was, so that when I start Firefox it opens on my home page, and when a new page opens, I see the content of the link that I clicked on? IMO This new and improved is really new and made worse.

An extra extension might have snuck in. These can be bundled with other software you might have installed recently.
Try disabling ALL nonessential or unrecognized extensions on the Add-ons page. Either:
* Ctrl+Shift+a
* orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Extensions. Then, if in doubt, disable. (Or if completely unwanted, remove.)
Usually a link will appear above at least one disabled extension to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links as the last step.
Does that get rid of the extra tab?
Note: I suggest also visiting the Windows Control Panel, Uninstall a Program, and clicking the "Installed on" column header. This should bring the most recent additions to the top and group them by install date so you can investigate how unexpected software might have been installed.

After a recent restore on my iphone i left the wireless network whilst it was backing up from icloud, when i got home and back on wireless all my apps etc continued downloading but only 6 photos, can i retrieve these from icloud?

Can i go back to an icloud back up before i lost my photos? I have tried yesterday 10/09/2012 but when restarting my phone from icloud the earliest backup it would let me select was 8/09/2012, it was about a week before this when i lost my photos and videos.

Do you even have an iCloud backup to restore from?

If not, there is nothing to restore from.

My Windows 7 Pro went completely doo lally - I completely reinstalled Windows 7 pro but forgot to save anything from Itunes - I know what the names of the 2 playlists I had but not sure how to make 2 more playlists and install mainly audiobooks back

My Windows 7 Pro went completely doo-Lally - I reinstalled the Windows 7 but I forgot to do anyting with Itune.
What I would like to know is, how do I get 2 playlists back into Itunes and then move audiobooks back into them.
As I said earlier, I have no backups from Itunes at all - I think I might learn a lesson from this
Regards
Bill

Many thanks.
With those symptoms, I'd try the following document:
Apple software on Windows: May see performance issues and blank iTunes Store
(If there's a SpeedBit LSP showing up in Autoruns, it's usually best to just uninstall your SpeedBit Video Accelerator.)
