ICloud Keychain will not deactivate

I don't remember ever activating the iCloud Keychain on my 2014 Mac Mini running Yosemite 10.10.2 but it will not deactivate. I've checked the other devices that use the same iCloud Id and have confirmed that the iCloud Keychain is not activated on any of them. I've tried signing out of my iCloud Account on the Mac Mini but it wouldn't let me because the Keychain was activated.
Any help would be much appreciated.

That's correct. Each time i click on Settings/iCloud/Keychain to clear it the tick just reappears.

ICloud keychain will not disable? Can't turn off iCloud???

After updating to Mavricks on iMac and ios7 on iPhone 4s and iPad 2, I tried to enable the new icloud keychain.
First on the iMac. After using it for a few passwords, and trying it, I enabled it on the iPhone 4s. After trying it for a bit, the person I was helping said they didn't want passwords in the cloud...
So.....
I went to the icloud control panel on the iMac and tried to disable the icloud keychain. Each time I uncheck the box, it prompts "Delete from this Mac" "Cancel" "Keep on this Mac". No matter how I answer, it rechecks the box when I click a button.
Then I tried to logout of the iCloud account. It prompted me to disable each of the features. It got to keychain, then said something to the effect "disable all icloud items before logging out". But it won't let me disable keychain?
Suggestions?

Have you seen This:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/23511969#23511969
If not, it could be that since so many apps. use ICloud, (ICAL, Mail, Safri, etc. you might have to go into each of them & disable? As I posted in earlier, try examining the login Items directly in Keychain Access App. (use the spotlight) ...but be careful, copy the passwords & attributes into a text editor b4 making changes. If you do not have the "other person's" system Log In, then you cannot proceed.
I do not use ICloud & I am waiting to make at least 3 months to change to Mavericks as well. When somthing isn't broke...
Good Luck

When syncing Contacts or Calendars between an iPhone, iPad, or an iPod touch and Outlook 2003, Outlook 2007, or Outlook 2010, changes that you synced to your computer may not appear in Outlook even after the sync has been completed.Try this article to see if it works for you

HT201320 My email address has been verified, but my icloud account will not complete?

My email address has been verified, but my icloud account will not complete?

I have the exact same problem, I even tried changing the password on my e-mail client. Still no luck. Sometimes it downloads the e-mails perfectly, and others, it keeps asking me for the password.
I've had this problem since I downloaded the last updates to the system about 5 days ago.

ICloud Mail will not let me enter a subject in the Subject line

all of a sudden iCloud Mail will not let me enter a subject in the Subject line. It even alerts me that there is no subject in the Subject line when i send an email but still wont let let the cursor enter anything in the subject line

When you add an iCloud account with Lion or Mt Lion there's no need to add an incoming mail server if you are using the built in mail app. It is automatically configured for you.

ICloud Calendar will not sync

My Microsoft Outlook keeps coming up with an error and now y iCloud Calendar will not sync
The error that keeps coming up is
"Outlook cannot parse the property "TRIGGER", near line 965 (etc). The property is being ignored.".
Please help
Thanks

Any suggestions? I've found that deleting the calendar and readding it will work initially, but the calendar will eventually stop syncing and can even make Outlook unstable. I've even seen instances where the Internet Calendar Subscriptions pst has grown up to 40 GB!

ICloud Drive will not work on my iPad 3. Pages crashes when I try. Setting resets to off after it crashes. any suggestions?

iCloud Drive will not work on my iPad 3. Pages crashes when I try. Settings resets to off after it crashes. any suggestions?

From the Ipad manual - actually the same in Ipad, Ipod, Iphone --- the support site listed has frequently asked questions on Icloud drive.
Set up iCloud Drive
You can set up iCloud Drive using Setup Assistant when you install iOS 8, or you can set it up later in Settings. iCloud Drive is an upgrade to Documents & Data. When you upgrade to iCloud Drive, your documents are copied to iCloud Drive and become available on your devices using iCloud Drive. You won’t be able to access the documents stored in iCloud Drive on your other devices until they are also upgraded to iOS 8 or OS X Yosemite. For more information about upgrading to iCloud Drive, see support.apple.com/kb/HT6345.
Set up iCloud Drive. Go to Settings > iCloud > iCloud Drive, turn on iCloud Drive, then follow the onscreen instructions.

My icloud email will not load

Hi!
My icloud email will not load.
     On any computer, Mac or PC at the icloud.com it will not load and sends an error message to apple.
     On my Mac it states that my password or email address is incorrect. This is not true as I have changed it and all other apple accounts work.
     On my iPhone it states my password is incorrect--it is not, again I have checked and re-entered it numerous times.
I have checked and done all the troubleshooting I can find.
I have checked all the communities and it seems some others are experiencing this same problem.
I have called apple support and (of course) they want me to pay for someone to help me--which I would do if this was an issue with my hardware or software.
I have an appointment today with the genius bar at my local store.
I believe this is an apple icloud server issue.
I would not be posting if this had not been happening since Christmas day. It has been over a week since I have been able to retrieve my email.
If anyone can help that would be wonderful, but please do not refer me to the troubleshooting pages as I have researched them extensively.
Thank you!

This same thing started for me today as well: None of my devices (iMac, MacBook 2 iPhones, iPad, 2 Apple TV's) which require Apple ID to work for mail, etc., would work this morning. I kept getting a message that my password or email address was incorrect. I was also notified my Apple ID password had "a security problem" and needed to be changed.
I was reluctant to change the password with my Apple ID, since I have been using it for nearly ten years, and will clearly never forget it. However, this old password only has six characters, all lower case. Apple now seems to want a password with at least eight characters, one of which is capitalized, etc. I went ahead and changed to a new 2012-model password, following Apple's guidelines, and voila, once I changed to that password on all of my devices they all work as they should!
What the heck? I guess I didn't have anything better to do between 10:00 and 11:00 am today anyway. While this seems like the right fix, I would have preferred it if Apple had sent out an advance notification that they are requiring more rigorous passwords, rather than just rejecting our old ones as a New Year's present. It would have saved some head scratching.

After updating to iOS6 my icloud music will not sync!

After updating to iOS6 my iCloud music will not synch to any device. I have looked at all possible "switches" and I've even wiped (full delete and reload via iCloud) of my iPad & iPhone. I've reloaded all music to iCloud, but still not downloading to iPad or iPhone. Some album info such as # of songs is displayed, but it cannot transfer the actual files. Can't even download iTunes purchases much less my 20K+ songs! It sees them, knows they are there, but will not download. No other internet/network problems with other devices in home. FLABERGASTED! Also some of my iPad apps refuse to reistal.

Do you have the settings to sync the ringtones automtically or manually? If manual, then you have to drag them from your ringtones list in iTunes onto your iPhone icon.

My ipad mini icloud storage will not drop below 2.5 GB.

My ipad mini icloud storage will not drop below 2.5 GB. I have deleted/OFFed everything. Still at 2.5?!?! I have removed and restored account. Still at 2.5. When I turn on larger apps like iMovie and garage band, it will go above 2.5, but never below. I have turned off all apps and all things like mail, contacts, calendars, reminders, safari, photo stream, and documents. Still 2.5. I also have an iPhone linked to the account it is using 911 mb's of storage,
I will not buy more storage.
Hopefully someone can figure this out
Thank-you,
Jeanmarie

When you turn off mail, contacts, etc on your devices, that does not remove them from the icloud server; it just prevents the data from syncing to the device. Your email, for example, remains on icloud until you delete all of it. Same for contacts, etc. Have you done that?

ICloud Calendar will not sync with iCloud

I am at a complete loss here. I have my work MBA running Yosemite and connected to my iCloud account. I also have a personal MBP, iPhone and iPad, all running the latest OS and Patch, all connected to my iCloud account.
For 98% of it, it works and syncs perfectly. Except for the calendar on my MBA. Calendar works and syncs perfectly everywhere else, MBA works perfectly with iMessage, FaceTime, Contacts, Keychain, etc, etc, etc.
Basic troubleshooting I have performed:
Rebooted MBA (obviously)
Attempted to remove calendars from syncing with my iCloud account (unsuccessful) - will not remove calendars.
Attempted to remove entire iCloud account from MBA (unsuccessful)
i have signed out everywhere on my MBA, when I go to System Preferences > iCloud and attempt to sign out, it fails.
When I go to Internet Accounts, iCloud keeps coming back as "INACTIVE" with nothing checked.
When I go through all the apps, Calendar is the only one that shows the iCloud data (iMessage shows me as signed out, same with App Store, iTunes, FaceTime, Contacts, etc)
Rebooted MBA multiple times throughout the process, to no avail or difference
Performed a repair install of Yosemite through the recovery console
After repair install, iCloud calendars still show up, even though my iCloud account under System Preferences shows me as signed out
After repair install, signed back into iCloud to see if I could re-sync calendarsiCloud shows me as signed in and Calendars as successfully setup
Upon launching Calendars, i get the spinning wheel in the top left of my calendar app and new calendar items created on the MBA do not sync with iCloud (website or other connected devices)
Created new calendar item on other devices as well as iCloud website, calendar item never shows up on MBA
So, aside from a complete format of the hard drive, can anyone think of any options I haven't tried? Or some way to completely reset one app (such as Calendar)

Needed to add some clarification here:
iCloud shows me as signed in, but Calendars are NOT checked
Internet Accounts shows Calendars as syncing

Is it safe to use Mavericks iCloud keychain or not?

I am not sure whether or not I should use Mavericks icloud keychain to store all information. How safe is it or good idea?

My personal choice, is that I only use it for non-critical and/or convenient uses.
I put web site passwords into it that I do not feel as a security risk to me. My banks for instance are not stored.
I do not put credit card numbers in.
Like any cloud service, only store on it what you are prepared to have stolen or lost if that service is compromised.
If you do use keychain locally or by iCloud, make sure that your computer is password protected, encrypted if you feel that it needs to be and setup so a secure password is required on booting, logins, recovery from sleep and screensaver etc.
If others are able to access your user account and you are using keychain, they will have full access to all your sites etc.

I have a Pages document in iCloud that will not open. I have Time Machine. How do I get to the version of the document that is not corrupted?

I'm in a bind. I tried to open a Pages document that I saved from the current version of Pages on my iMac this morning on my iPad, which has the current version of Pages of the iPad. It would not open on the iPad. Now it also will not open on the iMac, or on the Beta of iCloud Pages.
If it were on my hard drive, I could use Time Machine to recover the most recent version, but it's in iCloud. I've been told that implies that there is a local copy, but I don't know where that is.
It's a book manuscript I've been working on for months. I'm not happy.
Thanks for the help.

Your opinion of Apple products seems unusually harsh. I know how iCloud works and I'm generally pretty happy with it. I also like Pages a lot more than MS Word, and somewhat more than NeoOffice. Word is overripe with so many features Microsoft keeps radically changing the interface in the desperate hope that somehow they will make it easy to use again, but instead, they just confuse everybody with the unnecessary changes.
They had menus, until there were too many options to fit the screen, so they added submenues, until that wasn't enough, so they added dialog boxes, until that wasn't enough, so they added tabbed dialog boxes, and realized that a lot of commonly used features were too hard to get to, so they added the Toolbar just as a shortcut to the more common features and then came up with the unforgivable decision to eliminate the menu interface entirely in the Windows version of the product and replace it with The Ribbon, which took me so long to interpret that I stopped using Word altogether.
NeoOffice is simpler and quite useful, but it was iCloud that sold me on Pages. It's great being able to review and edit documents on iOS devices in addition to automatically synchronizing across Mac OS X devices.
I have options for synchronization with Box and DropBox, and I have a network share I can use, if having a local copy isn't important, but I find that having a local copy (like with Box, DropBox and iCloud) is great because each computer I use has Time Machine, so I don't have to rely on the service to restore a file. I can get it, myself. It's easier to browse to the version I want in Time Machine than it is to estimate the time I want to restore from and hope that someone else can find the right version of the file from whenever they made a backup to restore it for me. I have unhappy experiences from this kind of request to restore stuff.
I find Box and DropBox to be somewhat crude compared to iCloud. I like Apple's new attitude toward saving files. When I edit in Pages and exit, the file is saved. If I edit a file and the power goes out, I generally lose a sentence or less. In traditional apps, I can easily lose hours of work, unless I remember to manually save as I go.
iCloud is not a general remote file storage facility. At it's root, it is a roaming version of whatever you have on iOS devices. So, if I want to access a file from multiple devices and not have to worry about versions, I use iCloud.
This problem I just had was the first problem I've had with iCloud, and with Time Machine, and I use them a lot. Having someone tell me where the local copy of the documents are fixed the problem.
I love Time Machine.
For myself, when I upgraded from Bento 1 to Bento 2 on several computers, one of them choked on my data file. I followed Bento's directions to recover the data file until it said to reinstall Bento 1 from original medium. I couldn't find my disc. Yes, I had bought it. I don't steal software. But I couldn't find my disc.
So, I used Time Machine to restore Bento 1. Just try restoring an older version of an app in Windows from any backup software available to Windows and see how far you get.
I helped someone else recover a couple thousand email messages using Time Machine instead of dealing with the email service because we could open Mail, go to the folder where the messages had disappeared when she had a power glitch, and then browse back until we found the backup just before the messages disappeared. The restore took about 20 minutes, but again, this verges on magic.
I've used Time Machine to restore an older version of OS X when someone discovered that a crucial app wasn't ready for it yet. The glitch was that she hadn't backed up for a month. She kept ignoring the warning prompts. So, when I showed up, I had her do a current backup before doing the restore. We then restored to the old OS, restarted in the old OS and opened Time Machine to recover all her documents, pictures, etc. from the current backup, so she didn't lose a month of work. This is another thing I can't do with other backup programs.
So, I'm generally pretty happy with Apple. Once someone told me where the local copy of my iCloud documents resides, I could take care of this most recent problem.

TS3992 my ipad is locked up and i cannot open because a icloud message will not let me in the message is that i have not backed up in two weeks but when i tap on ok it does nothing!

my ipad will not let me open the screen to do anything due to an icloud back up message saying that the ipad has not been backed up in 2 weeks.
When i tap ok nothing happens i cannot slide to unlock the screen to connect to the internet or for anyother function.
Please any help will be welcomed

Hey herbthewelder,
I'd give these troubleshooting steps a try, they're for when your iPad appears frozen or unresponsive:
If the device is unresponsive or certain controls aren't working as expected, try restarting
To turn off the device, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the red slider appears.
Slide your finger across the slider to turn off the device.
To turn on the device, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
If the device remains unresponsive or does not turn on (or power on), try resetting
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds.
You can read more about the troubleshooting steps here:
