ICloud control just spins when logging in

When i attempt to login to iCloud control panel on a windows 7 pc, it just spins. I have let it sit for as long as 3 hours to no avail. It is on a new computer running windows 7 service pack 1. I have attempted to uninstall and reinstall, deleting registry entries and all apple related files folders. I have also made sure to reset my winsock and tcp/ip settings before reinstalling and attmepting to login again. I even tried an older version of icloud control panel. I did install itunes and was able to login to my account in the itunes store.
I saw others having a similar problem and have attempted other suggested solutions including this one,
https://discussions.apple.com/message/18508149#18508149
None have worked so far. other thoughts?

I believe it is issues with the iCoud server on PCs and appears only Apple can fix this glich.  For the past 2 days I have been unable to access my online iCloud apps from my HP laptop at work.  It works on my iPhone 4s however.  I have been able to log on to iCloud on a few occasions but couldn't access my mail or calendar.  Other times I have received the server error when attempting to log on.  I have continuously clicked the option to report the error to Apple each time I get the error notice, hoping they'll get enough reports to jump on this problem and fix it ASAP!

    Additional things to try.
    Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

    Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.

    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.

    Hi Steort,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities!
    The article linked below provides a lot of great suggestions that should be able to resolve the issue.
    iCloud: Troubleshooting web browser issues with iCloud.com
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4050
    Symptoms
    When using iCloud.com, you may experience issues such as a web page not loading, or the web browser displaying distorted or outdated content. Learn more about troubleshooting these types of issues.
    Resolution
    Use a supported web browser
    For the best web experience with iCloud.com, make sure you're using a supported web browser. For more information about iCloud system requirements, see this article.
    Enable cookies and JavaScript
    Cookies and JavaScript need to be enabled in order to properly access iCloud web services. If you're not sure whether you have Cookies or Javascript enabled, visit iCloud.com. If you're missing either Cookies or JavaScript support, iCloud web pages will provide an alert. If you're unclear on how to enable Cookies or JavaScript, refer to the Help menu for your browser.
    Troubleshooting the cache
    Most web browsers use a feature called "caching" to display frequently used information, images, and web resources. Caching stores or "caches" this information on your computer, so your computer doesn't have to download the same information every time it visits the same webpage. Caching makes subsequent visits to the same website or webpage faster.
    If a website or webpage has been updated since your last visit, your browser sees the update and then loads the new content instead of the old cached content. In some cases, this doesn't work as expected and your browser displays the old information instead.
    Expand All | Collapse All
    Follow the instructions below for clearing your web browser's cache in Safari, Firefox, and Google Chrome on a Mac; or Firefox, Internet Explorer, and Google Chrome on a Windows PC.
    To clear Safari's cache on a Mac (Safari 6.0 and later)
    Close any open Safari windows.
    Choose Safari > Preferences > Advanced.
    Select the checkbox labeled "Show Develop menu in menu bar".
    Close the Advanced window.
    From the Safari menu bar, choose Develop > Empty Caches.

  • ICloud rejects CORRECT password when logging in

    Every time I log in to my computer (or restart), I get a window that asks me for my iCloud password.  Even though I enter it correctly, the window “wiggles” and clears out the password.  Multiple attempts to re-enter the password results in the same symptoms.  I’ve even reset the password and tried with this new password and the same thing happens.  The only way to make the window go away is to click on Cancel, not once, but twice.  I know the password is correct, because I can go to iCloud.com and log in successfully.  That same password also works with my Apple ID any time a password is requested, further reassuring me that I’m using the correct password.  Why is it continually being rejected at login?

    I have this too. I had it for Facetime, but I logged out of it, but to log out of icloud i need to go into System Preferences, but it crashes every time i click on the Icloud icon. But only crashes for Icloud, everything else works fine.

  • ICloud Control Panel errors when attempting to set up contacts and calanders

    I have connected my mail with the Control Panel, but had to edit the settings through outlook to get the mailbox to sync, send and receive mail.
    When i attempt to then sync contacts and calanders with Outlook 2010, it will download all of my information and then error
    This error reads "Your setup couldn't be started because of an unexpected error".
    Can anyone help?

    Thanks for the reply. I have a binding established in the 'wait for event' step. The step proceeds correctly when the event happens, so I belive that the binding is correct. The problem happens when the process control step in the 'latest end' outcome of the 'wait for event' step attempts to set the work item to obsolete. Which event container bindings does the process control need in order to set the work item to obsolete?
    Thanks,
    Chris.

  • After my iMac has been on for 30 minutes or so it stops functioning correctly it will just spin when i try to close a program or shut it down

    after my iMac (intel) has been on for 30 minutes or so it stops working correctly when i try to close a program or shut it down the little ball spins and the computer is frozen and i have to cut power ... the back of the computer seems to be hotter than it should I assume that has something to do with what is going on

    Please determine if the problems also occur in "Safe Mode":
    Safe Mode or "Safe Boot" is a troubleshooting mode that bypasses all third party system extensions and loads only required system components. Read about it: Starting up in Safe Mode
    You must disable FileVault before you can start your Mac in Safe Mode.
    Starting your Mac in Safe Mode will take longer than usual, graphics will not render smoothly, audio is disabled on some Macs, and some programs (iTunes for example) may not work at all.
    Merely starting your Mac in Safe Mode is not intended to resolve the problem, it's to observe its performance without certain additional components.
    To end Safe Mode restart your Mac normally. Shutdown will take longer as well.

  • I use windows on parallels. I synced my Outlook 2010 Calendar through the iCloud control panel; but when I try to update the calendar through outlook 2010, it says I don't have permission to update it ?... and thereby, fails to sync with my iCal .. ??

    Is somebody facing a similar issue... Would be glad if someone could share their views; and provide a solution if it exists
    Thanks

    It was a CCC clone, and I had 2 versions,  One that runs monthly and one I made because the computer was acting wonky.  I called Apple because the Mac gave me an error message on my Time Machine disk, telling me to copy the backup to another drive and reformat.  I was unable to copy it to the new drive because it said I didn't have the proper permissions.  After trying several things, I deleted the data and reformatted.  The drive is one of my older ones, so I suspected it was really bad. (Turns out drive is good according to Apple)  So no time machine backup.  However, I figured I had two CCC files, so there shouldn't be a problem, still thinking it was my external drive that had the issue.  Talked to Apple who finally sent me to a store.  The Genius said that it was actually the HD in the iMac that was bad.  I told them to go ahead and replace, thinking I had double backup at home, as well as an online backup system.
    I was unable to restore from the new CCC, but the older one worked, except I only got about 30% of my data.  I've been in contact with Mike Bombrich and he reviewed my logs and saw that somehow CCC did not see my photos or movies or music and deleted them from the update run that morning. Now I have about 160GB of the original 540GB of data on CCC.  I'm not a techie, but because I had problems with the TM, the CCC clones and CrashPlan that the bad HD screwed up the search/sync in some way.  I am waiting until the darn online system stops scanning my disks long enough to try to download and restore from CP, but it has been in a constant scan/sync mode for over a week.

  • Cannot login from Windows iCloud control panel, but that not all...

    I set up my Apple Id and downloaded the Windows iCloud control panel, but when I try to sign in from my PCI get this message: "You can't sign in because of a server error." But when I check the status of icloud everything is operational. But if I go to the icloud page directly, I can sign in normally. The reason this is an issue is that I cannot setup icloud on my computer properly and with all of the options I want without signing in from the icloud control panel. This really bites, and any help would be appreciated immensly.
    Thanks, Scott

    I am having the same problem. I really need a solution. My Admin is flying blind without being able to see my calendars.

    Thanks,

    I am on 10.7.2, my iPhone iCloud account works fine, I can sign in at the iCloud website no problems, but have the same error message. I also get this when trying to create an account:

I can't contact customer support because I have a PC and there is a serial number of an apple device required.Can anyone help please?

    You can't setup (create) an iCloud account using a PC. You must use an Apple device, a Mac or an iPhone etc. Once you have created an account you can sign in from your PC.
