Icloud on Iphone 4 can't set up

When I try to set up iCloud on my iPhone 4, it keeps telling me that the apple id can't be used for iCloud. I using the same apple id for purchase in the store and on all my other devices. So why won't it work for iCloud?
I hope someone can help me.

yes you can
A. how to make a ringtone using iTunes
First, open up iTunes in order to make a ringtone using iTunes. Find the song you want to turn into a ringtone by browsing through your music library.
Next, find exactly what part of the song you want to make a ringtone using iTunes. For example, if you want to use a specific section of the song from 21 seconds to 40 seconds, make a note of where you want the ringtone to begin and end.
Now, right click on the song you want to turn into a ringtone. Click "Get Info". Now, in order to make a ringtone using iTunes, click the "Options" tab.
Check the "Start Time" check box. Type in the point in the song where you want the ringtone to start in the format "minute:seconds" (e.g. the second mark would be 0:20). You can also be more precise by adding a period and putting milliseconds in after that (e.g. 0:20.150, would be 20.150 seconds). Also, click the "Stop Time" check box and enter where you would like the ring tone to end. Keep in mind ringtones can only be around 39 seconds maximum. Press "Ok". We are almost done making a ringtone in iTunes
Now, right click on the same song. Select "Convert AAC Version". If it is in another file format, you can go to "Edit" then "Preferences" and under the "General" tab click "Import Settings"; change the file format to AAC. After you select "Convert AAC Version" a new file will be created, but it will only be the segment of the song that you specified earlier.
Now, you have to find the file you just created. Right click on the new, shorter song and select "Open in Windows Explorer". The file extension should be .m4a. Rename the extension to .m4r by right clicking the file and selecting "Rename".
Now you can delete the shortened version of the song in your iTunes library. Then, double click the .m4r file and it will loaded into your iTunes Ringtone list. Now you can make a ringtone using iTunes!

You can set up a 4-digit numerical passcode or a longer, complex password including letters and number. A pattern lock is not an option.

Get a free Gmail or Yahoo account and use that.

HT4859 If I backup to iCloud from iPhone 3GS, can I delete all my photos off my iPhone and be able to view them from the computer?

My memory is full, if I back up to iCloud using my iPhone 3GS can I delete the photos off my device and be able to restore my phone and get my contacts back and save photos onto a computer?

Export Photos and Videos from Camera Roll to your computer.
Empty Camera Roll.
Make a Folder/Album with all photos and videos you want to have in your iPhone and sync them through iTunes.
This will free up space in your iPhone and your iCloud.
The backup of Camera Roll in iCloud is only to restore your iPhone. You can't access them directly.

Factory restet iPhone 4 can't set up. No SIM card

I bought a used iphone 4 and received it 2 days ago. Everything was already set up and I made a verizon account and activated it. Yesterday, I factory reset my phone and now I can't set anything up. I can only set the language and wifi before it says "No SIM card try again" and it wants me to put in a SIM card. How do I fix this? I thought verizon iphone 4 did not have a SIM card slot. Do I have to take it to my local verizon store to get it activated again?

I can't dial *221. The screen tells me No Sim Card inserted, and the only screens I can back out to are the language and country screens.

If i have a work ipad with a work email and a shared icloud for all employees, can i set up a second itunes and icloud account with a separate email address on the same ipad for my personal stuff?

i am a teacher and my school has given all of us a ipad to use. it is set up with my school email and a shared itunues and icloud account. they have told us we can use it for anything that can be used for education purposes. i have downloaded books and other items that i have marked up for my use. however if there is ever a problem i cant identify my applications or books if other teachers have downloaded the same apps or books as well as my documents. is there a way to set up a 2nd itunes account and icloud account so that i may use that when backing up anything that would be personalized by me so that i can find what is rightfully mine. they are ok with it but were unsure how to do this, so can anyone help me? thanks

Sorry, you cannot use more than one iTunes account at a time.

When I left an older Windows laptop behind and bought a new MacBook Air, I had to transfer all of my songs over by copying them onto an SD card and then opening it with the new (and empty) iTunes on the MBA. Worked really well...

On my iPhone 5, can I set a preference to ask if I want to send a message that has misspelled words before it's sent?

The spell checker correctly shows a red underline to flag misspelled words. However, sometimes I miss them or inadvertently send the message before I've checked (new user, not sure how this happens). Is there a way to have a question box show up to ask me if I'm ready to send with spelling errors? I did find some guidance in prior questions to the Community but they were for other Apple i products.

Not that I have found. The interface apparently expects you to correct them the moment they occur. A PITA, if you ask me, since it breaks the typing rythmn.

Can you set different colours for invitees in calendar?

In calendar on the iphone/ipad can you set any events that you accept from invitees to a different colour so that you can instantly distinguish them from your own events?

You could choose None in Preferences > General > New Mail Sound and set up a rule for each account in Preferences > Rules as follows:
If [any/all] of the following conditions are met:
[Account] [AccountName]
Perform the following actions:
[Play Sound] [Sound]
Problem is, that would cause the sound to be played for junk mail as well — probably not what you want.

Can i set my pc to print on my printer wirelessly?

I have an HP Photosmart C3180 printer hooked to my iMac. If I am using a Windows laptop and connect to the iCloud through the internet, can I set it up to print on my iMac's printer?

If your printer is airprint enabled, it'll print natively.
iOS: Using AirPrint
explains it and has a link to a list of supported printers
If your printer isn't on that list, you still have options. Your printer's manufacturer may have an app or accommodate things like google docs or the such. You'd need to research this on your manufacturer's site.
Or there are third party printing apps. I've used print n share, but there are several others out there. You'd just need to research and find one that looks good to you.

TS3988 My icloud account is not verifying it says check my mail witch I have done and I get a message say your iPhone for has been used to set up and Icloud account but still can not use the icloud can anybody help me.

My icloud account is not verifying it says check my mail witch I have done and I get a message say your iPhone for has been used to set up and Icloud account but still can not use the icloud can anybody help me.

Be sure you are checking the email account that you used to set up the Apple ID you used to create the iCloud account. Also, be sure to check your spam/junk folder as well as your inbox. The email you should receive looks like the image below. When you get it, click the Verify Now link.
If it still isn't there, try going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage your Apple ID, sign in, click on Name, ID and Email addresses on the left, then to the right look for a link to resend the verification email.

I recently upgraded my iphone 4 to a iphone5 and everytime i take pictures etc they store on the old phone as well as the new on iloud, how can I set up a new icloud on the old phone for my mum whos now using it without losing everything that was ? thanks

i recently bought a new iphone 5 and gave the old iphone 4 to my mum. every time i take picstures they automatically store on the iphone 4, how can i set up a new icloud for my mum on the iphone 4 but keep everything on my iphone 5?

Your iphone 4 must still be logged into your icloud account. Go to settings>icloud, scroll to bottom of page and tap Delete Account. This will remove all your data from the old device but not from icloud or your iphone 5.
To create a new icloud account for your mum, go to

If my wife and I share our Imac but have separate Iphones and Ipads, can we set up 2 separate Iclouds on the Imac? Or do we have 1 Icloud account and synch our individual devices separately?

Set 2 independent users on the iMac, each can then have their own accounts (iCloud, iTunes etc)
