ICloud Control Panel will not connect on Win7 machine

I've installed iCloud Control Panel 2.1.1 but when it brings me to the login screen it just hangs there... Worked fine on my laptop at home but my work PC is having this problem.

I'm having the exact same problem, and the exact same error messages. I have windows 8.1 64-bit. I've tried looking for solutions everywhere. I'm very frustrated.

ICloud Control Panel will not connect

I have the latest version of Parallels and Windows 7 on my iMac. I installed iCloud Control Panel and can run it. I put in my Apple ID and Password, then click Sign In. The little icon just keeps spinning, and I never connect to iCloud! What can I do? I turned off my Norton Firewall, and even messed with the Network settings in Parallels Tools, but nothing seems to work. Help!!

I have exactly the same problem, have you solved it yet, I have no support in my country, poor show actually.

The iCloud Control Panel will not intall on my WIN 7 32-bit PC

the iCloud Control Panel will not install on my WIN 7 32-bit PC. I receive the error message,
"There is a problem with this Windows installer package. A program run as part of the install did not finish as expected. Contact your local support personnel or package vendor."
When the panel finished being "backed off" my PC, I also received the following message,
"iCloud for Windows Installer Error.
The installer encountered errors before iCloud for Windows could be configured.
Your system has not been modified. To retry these operations at a later time, please run the installer again.
Click FINISH to exit the installer."
Each time I tried to download and install the Control Panel, these messages would appear.
The Genius Bar was unable to help me and referred me to the ICloud Support Line. They were unable to help me.
I refuse to believe that Apple is unable to solve this issue with their own software, but if there is anyone in this august community that can help me, I would be forever grateful,
Thank you.

ICloud Control Panel will not install! What do I need to do?

I have tried running the installer but it fails with the following error message:
"Could not update the ini file C:\Windows\system32\mapisvc.inf."
What is going wrong & what do I need to do to install iCloud Control Panel?
N.B. I am using a laptop with Windows Vista installed, with Service Pack 2. I have also installed ALL updates.
Does it have anything to do with the fact I don't use MSOffice?
Thanks for your help

1. You need to disable the User Account Control (AUC) in Windows control pannels, otherwise next steps may not work.
2. You need to locate the file, right click it and select properties - security - advanced - owner tab; click on edit and select your username (the current Windows account), press ok.
3. Then within the security tab, select your user account and grant the full control to yourself (first box needs to be ticked). Press ok.
Then try the installation again. This worked for me.

ICloud Control Panel will not open - Windows 7

I bought an iPhone 4s today and just installed the iCloud on my Windows 7 machine. When I first installed iCloud the iCloud Control Panel opened fine, but since then I cannot open it. I can click on the control panel icon but nothing happens. Same for

I have this exact problem, when I try to sign in to icloud control panel it just hangs. I read on one of the other forums that it is something to do with the user profile on the PC and using another user id sometimes works. Interesting thing is if I use the 'Guest' sign in facility on my PC it allows me to sign on to icloud control panel. Still trying to establish what is different in the 2 user profiles?

Icloud control panel does not install properly but only when trying to sync with Outlook 2010. If I try to sync photos, etc. it works just fine

Downloaded icloud control panel to Win 7. Everything seems ok until you "apply" synching at the icloud control panel. Then you get an error message that says "icloud control panel did not install properly". Repairing in Windows control panel as suggested does not help. If you do not try to sync Outlook data (2010) then it seems to work just fine.

I was able to finally stop ITunes from crashing after many days of searching n restarting my computer many times.
a) First I went to this site ->http://forums.techarena.in/guides-tutorials/1119812.htm that showed me how to disable DPE. Please make sure that u have good virus...etc.. protection first before doing this. I have Avast Internet Security. RESTART UR COMPUTER..
b) I then uninstall ITunes by following this site ->http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1923 RESTART UR COMPUTER..
c) I then downloaded a beta version of ITunes. I happen to download beta 7 before the final of 10.5 version came out. Installed it. After installing I click on it n it said somewhere along the line of "this ITune ver. expired" I checked in my Programs n Features n notice that QuickTime was installed w that beta version.
d) Go online n download the final version of ITunes ->http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/ ...... After u finish dling install that. After that's done connect your IPod, IPhone...etc... n click on ITunes, it should sync all the way.
I was finally able to sync all thru the steps insteading of it crashing on me midway. Hopefully this will work for you. Good luck !

Beware: icloud control panel DOES NOT WORK for icloud email

Opposing evidence is welcome. Please comment.
After dozens of hours, emails and chat sessions with both MS and Apple tech support (the latter escalated as high as it could go - "after this we have to refer you to engineering"), I was finally told by Apple Senior Advisor Ciara Ferguson that icloud control panel does not properly sync icloud mail with Outlook 365 (Outlook 2013). After several months of working on dual systems I discovered that many (but not all) changes to folder names and filing of emails in various folders made in Outlook were not reflected on icloud and vice versa. Ms. Ferguson has stated that icloud control panel "works better with calendar and contacts." Obviously, this non-committal statement is grossly insufficient. It either works or it doesn't. It doesn't.
Allegedly, icloud control panel does work to sync other email (the example of an outlook.com email address was given) into apple devices. This doesn't sound right to me either, since one can just add any POP or IMAP or Exchange account into a Mac device, so why would one need icloud control panel to interface?
I remain stymied as to the actual purpose of icloud control panel, despite asking exactly that question of Ms. Ferguson on several occasions. The Apple literature and its own setup screens suggest that it will sync email, contacts, calendar and notes with MS Outlook, but as to email, that is apparently untrue.

I don't think so. I'd like to sync photostream from two iPhones with distinct Apple IDs on our PCs and I don't see a way to do it. It synced my wife's iPhone while she was logged in to iCloud control panel but not mine until I logged in (and disconnected her photostream PC syncing).

The control panel will NOT let me activate either CONTACTS or Calendar as it just says I do not have a default profile setup, which I do have. I have checked it over and over again but it still refuses to let me use these features. I am using Office 2010

The control panel will not let me activate either Cointacts or Calendar as it says I do not have a default profile active, which I do have. I have checked over and over again, but it will still NOT let me activate it. I am using Office 2010 on a PC running W7 and Outlook form that package. I have taken a screen image to show what it states...

thankyou. THANK you.

sorry about no screenie but the first option worked (at least so far!)

HT201317 My icloud control panel does not allow me to turn on photos. Contacts, Bookmarks etc.. are ok

My icloud control panel does not enable the Photos check box. Cannot view photos on PC that are taken with iphone and ipad.

Hi Randers - thank you for the advice. I signed out of the account on all devices, however when I try to go into iCloud on the Mac to re-input my account details, I'm presented with the following error message:
'Could not load iCloud preference pane'. Is there something additional I'm meant to do to be able to load an iCloud account on the Mac?

ICloud Control Panel does not recognize Outlook

I installed the iCloud Control Panel but it doesn't seem to be recognizing Outlook. In the Control Panel header, it says "Install Outlook to use Mail, Contacts and Calendars. Outlook 2010 is installed and the iCloud Outlook Add-In is installed and running.

I have the same setup as sceloglaux (Win 7 64 bit Home, iPhone 3GS, Outlook 2010).
I tried a reboot, uninstall, reboot again, disable and close anything I can, then reinstall. Still the same problem.
Athough I'm not sure if I got this message before:
Outlook Setup Error
Your setup couldn't be started because of an unexpected error.
Clicking the report button brings up my profile dialog box, then I choose my profile and it just goes back to the error dialog. Try again does the same thing.
sceloglaux - it sounds like you got it working. Care to enlighten us on what steps you took?
Do I need to have an me.com e-mail account set up first? I don't want to sync e-mail, just calendar and contacts. I tried setting up e-mail in case that's the missing link, but I'm having trouble with that as well (separate thread, probably server issues).
Thanks.

ICloud Control Panel does not sync more than 139 Images

Hello Forks,
i'm encountering a Problem with iCloud Control Panel v 3.1 running on Windows 8.1 Professional on a Lenovo Think-Tablet.
When I enable Photostream it downloads excatly 139 Images and stops after that.
On my Windows 8(.0) Laptop and my mac pro it's running fine tho.
I've tried everything i found on the forums so far:
-) deleted appdata
-) deleted Images Folder
-) reinstalled whole suite
-) logged out and in again
my Photostream contains ~600 Images
Any avice?

hello,
so how is it possible that on my mac - on which i enabled icloud like 1 week ago - downloads 600+ images and my tablet, where i installed icloud 2 months ago downloads almost nothing?
//edit:
if icloud _would_ download at least the newest images, but it downloads anything in between my photostream

Wireless Printer Will Not Connect To Any Machine

Okay so just want to start out saying any help is appreciated, haven't used a forum before so hoping for any answers.
I have a HP Photosmart 5510 All in One B111a printer
Trying to connect to 2 laptops 1 Win7 64 bit - 1 Windows XP Professional SP2
I have had the printer for around a month - Set it up on my Win7 laptop no problem, needed to connect to the Win XP laptop, and after turning it on it will not connect to either randomly
It seems so far that the printer is connected to the network according to what it says, and both laptops install the software okay but when searching for the printer neither can find it, it then resorts to searching via IP where it still cannot find it.
So far I have attempted to reset defaults on printer, reset network defaults on printer, change the IP address, update the IP address, reinstall the software, reinstall the driver, install the full feature installation package, the network diag tool, it cannot seem to find the printer at all even though on the printer screen it states it's connected to the network fine.
It works fine through a cable and at one point i made a WPS connection via my Win7 laptop but couldn't really figure out what to do next and if it would help my situation so disconnected.
I don't know whether this is down to some stupid mistake I've made/something basic I've missed (it's my first printer) or an actual problem
Please help!

What router?

Icloud control panel photostream not working on windows

Using windows 7 i set up photostream to hsare the photos taken on my iphone/ipad. all worked for a while, but, have stopped now. Photo are not loading onto the PC. When i go to the control panel I also note the options buttom beside photostream is inactive (meaning i cannot check what folders have been set up). I suspect this came about during an update of versions as all was previosuly working just fine.
