ICloud is not accepting my Apple ID and password

After setting up my Apple ID I attempted to create an iCloud account but, when entering my Apple ID & Password, it will not accept it. I may have set this up previously and forgot the info, but it doesn't allow me to check previous accounts. Any ideas?

Hi there Brunett,
I would recommend taking a look at the troubleshooting steps found in the article below.

    IF your imessage is saying waiting for activation then do this:
    backup your phone to itunes or icloud.
    then on your phone go to settings - general - reset - erase all contents and settings - this will wipe your phone clean.
    once the process is done, you can restore from the backup you made, then you should be able to activate your imessage.

  • IMessage does not accept my Apple iD and Password

    I have restored my iphone back to 2 days ago. After then when I want to log in iMessage, iMessage doesn't accept my Apple id and password. I know my Apple id and password. I can log in to itunes or icloud. Even to post this, I entered my apple id and password. But only iMessage doesn't accept it. Can someone kindly help me on this issue?

    There are some iMessage/Facetime issues judging from the many posts here today.    I would just sit tight and try again in a few hours.
    There was an article about it earlier if you'd like to read up on it:

  • ITunes will not accept my Apple ID and Password via Apple TV

    Hi there. My Apple ID and Password work perfectly well on my computer and allows access to the iTunes store. However, when I try logging into the iTunes store to rent a movie on my Apple TV it keeps on saying Apple ID or password not recognised (or words to that effect). Any ideas anyone. It's been like this for ages and is driving me nuts! (I updated the Apple TV software today).
    Thank you.
    Graham

    I seem to remember seeing something similar when I first connected mine. My userid/pwd were constantly rejected when I tried to rent a movie, and no matter what I tried I couldn't get it to work. However when I reentered the exact same details under the ATV settings menu and then went back to rent the movie it was fine, and has been ever since. Am not in front of the unit so I can't remember which option it was under the settings menu but it was pretty obvious...

  • Asking for iCloud account name and password to play iTunes radio when I have done it in the past many times without this question.  Will not accept my apple id and password.  Will not save my changed password.  Where do I start?

    I have a MAC with OS X Yosemite, version 10.10.2, 8GB, 2.7 GHz, intel core i5.  Until 2 days ago, I could click on iTunes radio, pick my station and listen.  Then 2 days ago, I do this and system asks for my iCloud account id and password.  Does not recognize apple id or password.  I change the password, does not save it.   Screen that lists 2 step verification asks for added security questions, I do those and still will not allow me access.  What do I do and where do I start?  I thought I should download the update to OS X.  I did that, still no change.  Please help direct me to where I need to go to fix this problem.

    Restoring an iPad from an iTunes-generated backup should not require an Apple ID password.
    Did you encrypt the iPad backup? If so, then trying to restore will require entering the encryption password.

  • Icloud Won't accept my AppleID Username and Password

    Hi -
    iCloud will not accept my Appleid username and password...why is that?  Can someone help!

    @Hackintosh-Thanks for sharing your thoughts, he was in fact a Senior Advisor.  And yes, I totally agree with on all your points.  He was out of line and not understanding clearly what the sitatution and principle was about.  I am not a sucker, anymore that is, lol.  I wouldn't let of course and called again.  Fortunately, the Advisors I spoke to both said to your point an exception should be made on my favor.
    I was then able to work with a Senior Advisor and did all kinds of stuff and agrees, the situation is completely out of the users league and relates to the Preferences inability to save changes to login and make changes for the mail system too.  What we found interesting was the fact that we logged out and logged in another test user and logged in with my apple id just fine.  We saw iCal download from iCloud and seen it work, weird.  But because the issue was about the master Admin computer login, we needed the fix on that account, not the test account.  We were on it for say an hour all over the system trying to get it to work, but now it has been escalated to the engineers and designers to get a deeper look into it.  I suggested to somehow trace the connection to server since the server is rejecting the password, that should be the mode of investigation.
    Anyways, he said it could take up to 4 calendar days to resolve, will update with further progress.

  • I get "mail server does not recognize your Apple ID and password" when I try to share a picture via email in iPhoto.  My iCloud email works ok otherwise.  I have check all mail settings for ID and password.

    In the iPhoto preferences ==> accounts delete the account and re-enter it - sometimes that resolves this
    Or IMHO the best long term solution is to set Apple Mail as the iPhoto e-mail client in the iPhoto preferences and use it - it has a number of advatages and has fewer problems

    Icloud does not accept new Apple ID. What can I do to get it to accept.

    Please try logging in with your current Apple ID here in order to test: https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/wa/directToSignIn?loc alang=en_US
    If your new ID doesn't work try logging in with your old details as maybe the change didn't work as first thought?

  • Face time does not accept my Apple ID and will not work.  Help!!, face time does not accept my Apple ID and will not work.  Help!!

    Hi, Face time does not accept my Apple ID and therefore Face time does not work. Any suggestions?

    You might have some sort of interference or communication problem, I just wanted to check you were entering the right ID to begin with.
    If you are using the correct ID (without spaces), then you might try restarting the router or trying another wifi channel to eliminate interference.
