ICloud Control Panel: "Couldn't sign in because of a server error."

iCloud Control Panel:
Installation of icloud control panel was successfull. After entering the correct Apple-ID and pw this error message appears: "Couldn't sign in because of a server error."
Firewall is deactivated.
It worked once after the command: "netsh winsock reset" in cmd.
Since then the issue reoccures so it's impossible for me to use things like Photo Stream.
So what might be the reason for this connection problem?
Thanks!
Johnny

Setting up new Macbook and on Apple ID entry I get "Couldn't sign in because of a server error. Try signing in again."

Any suggestions on how to continue? ID and Password are defienetly correct.

I'm also experiencing the same problem. I just upgraded the OS to X on my Mac Mini, and there seems to be a problem connecting to the internet. Connected fine to my Time Capsule/Router, and the Router is seeing the internet according to my MacBook Pro on the same network (this post is evidence that I'm seeing the internet!). But when I connect to the router, I get the error message:
"Your Mac isn't connected to the internet." Try Again or Continue.
If I select Continue, when I try to sign into my iTunes account it gives me the server error message, which is presumably because it's not seeing the internet. Have tried it several times and confirmed the password is correct. Also, I can see and share screens with the Mac Mini from my MacBook Pro, so clearly the connection to the router is working as well.
Help?

Stuck at initial set up with the unfamous "couldn't sign in because of a server error"

What's next after hitting this dead road while setting up a new machine? I don't want to skip this step and set up another account for my laptop when I already have a WORKING Apple ID that I use constantly and is proven that I am able to log in and see my stuff NOW. Thank you for your help...

Hello wjlorenzjr,
This is often caused by security software preventing the iCloud Control Panel from communicating properly with our servers. The following article provides further information necessary to make sure your software is allowing proper communication and operation.

Although your message isn't mentioned in the symptoms, let's try the following document with that one:
Apple software on Windows: May see performance issues and blank iTunes Store

I keep getting an error message when logging onto iCloud. It states that "you cant sign in because of a server error". But the cloud status is "normal".

This is happened today after I udpated my iPad to IOS v7 and iTunes to 11.1.0.126 and only for one of my computers. I keep on getting an error message when trying to log onto iCloud. The error message is "you cannot sign-in because of a server error" but the iCloud status is "normal" and iCloud is fine on my other computers.

Next day the problem still continued. I did restart my computer a couple of times and then "it worked". Not sure why - if it really was a server problem or something on my side.
