If icloud is not on my computer, will that affect login in to icloud through my iphone 4s?

Original Question: if icloud is not on my computer will that affect login into icloud through my iphone 4s
On my iphone, a dialog box appears asking for user login to icloud-- ENTER USER   "password".   After I attempt to login in to icloud the dialog box re-appears asking for AGAIN user password login and will not remove from main screen.
My first thought was (my iphone does not have wifi connection) to connect to wifi because the user login is not connecting permitting login to be accepted. I selected cancel to bypass the dialog box asking for user Login password to icloud in order to remove it from the home screen.    I attempt to go to wifi settings. The dialog box will re- appear preventing from SELECTING wifi settings because the dialog box does not give enough time to remove itself from main screen in order to change wifi settings in which to allow wifi.
Additionally, my thought it is the correct Login password being enter because when online at the icoud login page asking for username and password, both are accepted and allow access.
Also, one thought to the issue, after opening iTunes it has stated that my icloud session has expired. My intentions at this moment are not to purchase a subscription to icloud at this time. Although i would like to access the account later on, if there wouldn't be conditional problems with iclouds at a later point in time, then there would not be any concerns deleting the icloud account in order to remove the icloud dialog box. However, i would consider deleting acct as a last step.

If icloud is not on my computer will that affect login into icloud through my iphone 4s

the SIGN IN TO ICLOUD DIALOG BOX reappears after I enter my password. Additionally, icloud is not downloaded on to my computer. Why isn't icloud accepting my password ? How do I resolve this issue?

( Please continue reading and thank you for your response.) I received a response ques. asking, Are you trying to login to i-cloud? Yes, I was trying to login to         i-cloud in order to remove the dialog box which will not remove after each time, I entered the correct i-cloud LOGIN USER "PASSWORD" requesting to be entered.

ICLOUD ISSUE- SETTINGS NOT SET RIGHT OR
ACCOUNT IS INVALID- NEED TO PAY FOR AN ACCOUNT
===================
SO AFTER ATTEMPTING TO TROUBLESHOOT THE I -CLOUD ISSUE ON THE PHONE
1. THE PHONE SHOULD BE ACTIVE AND HAVE WIFI SERVICE.
2.THE ICLOUD DIALOG BOX ASKING FOR ICLOUD USER LOGIN PASSWORD HAS TWO SELECTIONS. SHOWING "OK" BUTTON FOR ENTERING PASSWORD AND "CANCEL."   WIFI IS NEEDED TO RESOLVE THIS ISSUE.YOU MUST BE QUICK TO BYPASS THE DIALOG BOX AND ATTEMPT TO SELECT THE WIFI CONNECTION IN ORDER TO PROCEED TO RESOLVE I-CLOUD ISSUE WITH DIALOG BOX RE-APPEARING.
ADDITIONALLY, I SELECTED TO DELETE THE ACCOUNT. JUST BEFORE I CHANGED SETTINGS AND CONNECTED WITH WIFI.
I AM NOT SURE IF THE CHANGES WENT THROUGH.
ADDITIONALLY , ON MY IPHONE 4S, I WENT TO SETTINGS MENU AND SAW THAT MY DATA WAS NOT ON!!
I TURNED IT ON
ICLOUD ON MY IPHONE ASKED TO LOGIN WITH USERNAME ACCOUNT AND USERNAME PASSWORD. AND THEN ASKED IF I WANTED TO MERGE ACCOUNT INFORNMATION.
   I MYSELF, UNSURE OF THE OUTCOMES CHOSE NIETHER. I WOULD APPRECIATE ANY RESPONSE UNDERSTANDING THE DIFFERENCE OF MERGING OR NOT MERGING ICLOUD ACCOUNT AND WAS IT A RESULT OF DELETEING THE OLD ICLOUD ACCOUNT.
THE DIALOG BOX REMOVED ITSELF FROM THE MAIN SCREEN AND FROM MY UNDERSTAND ACCEPTED THE USERNAME PASSWORD WHEN I LOGGED IN AND UPDATED THE FILE, AS A RESULT FROM THE START, WAS CHANGED DUE TO FORGETTIG THE OLD PASSWORD.
AFTER TROUBLESHOOTING MYSELF, I LEARNED THAT YOU NEED WIFI   IN ORDER FOR THE CONNECTION TO GO THROUGH IN WHICH IS NEED FOR THE DEVICE TO COMMUNICATE. AND YOUR DATA ON YOUR PHONE SETTING SHOULD BE ON IN ORDER TO ALLOW WIFI CONNECTION TO BE ENABLED.
IF MY UNDERSTANDING IS CORRECT, THOSE CHANGES SHOULD BE IMPLEMENTED IN WHICH TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE OF THE DIALOG BOX FROM RE-APPEARING ON THE MAIN SCREEN.
I WISH THERE WAS MORE HELP INVOLVED IN RESOLVING THESE TECHNICAL ISSUES. I AM SERVING IN THE MILITARY OVERSEAS AND AS CALLED FOR TECHNICAL HELP, I WAS USING A PHONE CARD WITH A LIMITED AMOUNT OF MINUTES. MOST OF MY TIME WAS SPENT ON WAITING FOR ASSISTANCE AND STATING INFORMATION THAT SHOULD OF BEEN ASKED DURING THE WAIT PERIOD TO EXPEDITE THE PROCESS AND TIME WAS SPENT REPEATING INFORMATION WHICH HINDERED MY TIME TO RESOLVE ANY ISSUES.
Thank you for the one response for assistance. I just wish there had been more response for help.

Canon pixma mx850 printer not reading my computer - will not print

canon pixma mx850 printer not reading my computer - will not print
I unplugged the cord that went from the printer to the computer to another canon printer to see if I could remediate a problem with a wireless printer.
When I plugged the computer cord back into the usual computer, the printer is no longer talking to the computer even though I have gone in and changed back the settings, and it has been the default printer - that was not changed.
I've tried all the trouble-shooting suggestions to no avail.

Hi scheideckerj,
Reinstalling the latest drivers for the printer from the Canon USA website may resolve the issue you are experiencing. Please click here to go to the Drivers and Software page for the PIXMA MX850. Once on the download page, please do the following:
1. Verify that the operating system detected in the "OPERATING SYSTEM" drop-down menu is correct, and if it is not, please click the drop-down menu to select your operating system.
2. Next, please click on the red arrow next to the "DRIVERS" section and click on the MP DRIVERS file. When you do, a red DOWNLOAD button will appear. Please click on the checkbox below the DOWNLOAD button, then click the red DOWNLOAD button to begin the download. The time for the download process may vary depending on the speed of your Internet connection and the size of the file being downloaded.
Once the file is downloaded, please double-click on it to reinstall the printer drivers on your computer.
Hope this helps!

My photos from my phone are not on my computer, will i lose them if i restore my phone?

my photos from my phone are not on my computer, will i lose them if i restore my phone?

The intent of having them on the cloud is for backup. If you want to feel safer and just for more expediency, I'd recommend you connect the phone to the computer whose iTunes you have associated the phone with and do a manual backup onto local storage.
That way, you can have the double assurance of having backups and when doing the restore thru iTunes, the info will get placed back on the phone the quickest.

I did not update my iPad 3 with the last update, will that affect me updating to IOS 6?

I did not update my iPad 3 with the last update, will that affect me updating to the new IOS 6? Will I get all the updates I missed in the previous update if I update to IOS 6. If not, tell me where to go to get the last update before I update to IOS 6. I thought I had time before this new one came out. Thanks for any help I get.

You can update directly to iOS 6 now. Not updating to iOS 5.1.1 does not matter. If you have updated the iPad before, you know what to do.

Lests say you travel for 1 hour and you are using the gps in your iphone for 1 Continuous hours will that affect your iphone lifetime?

will that affect the iphone parts and make it damage?

Using the phone for one hour, or leaving the phone on and in standby for one hour, will reduce the total life expectancy of your phone by exactly one hour...
On a similar note, if you continue breathing for one year, at the end of that year, the total remainder of your life will have been shortened by exactly 1 year... That is not to say that you will be expected to die at the age of say, 75 instead of 76, but rather, one of your 76 years has now been used...

No. It will not affect the phone at all.

MACBOOK PRO is frozen. Keyboard and Trackpad do not respond. Computer will not shut down. Tried to close lid and reopen after 1'min but no response.

Brand New MACBOOK PRO just froze up and will not respond or even shut down.
Cannot find any support except for this.
Apple will not support unless you have bought a support package and is now offering to sell you this package.
Makes me ponder the thought that this is all a scamm to get more money out of the customer and this program (virus) was purposely loaded during one of the updates.
Not sure what I bought here but my respect for apple and its products is deteriorating rapidly.

Apple will not support unless you have bought a support package and is now offering to sell you this package.
I'm not sure where you got that idea. All Macs come with free phone support for the first 90 days:
http://www.apple.com/support/complimentary/
Further, you can always make an appointment at the Genius Bar of your nearest Apple Store and take the machine there for free advice and basic diagnostics (though any service may cost money outside the warranty).
Finally, Apple offers a 14-day, no-questions-asked return policy. If your machine isn't working properly right out of the box, take it back and get a different one.

That's a pretty ridiculous thing to say that clearly indicates an utter lack of understanding of how the tech world works. I appreciate that you're upset, but please try to stick to reality here. You won't get much sympathy from anyone saying silly things like this.

HT1349 If I re-install iTunes software, will that affect my current iTunes Library?

If I re-install iTunes software, will that negatively affect my existing iTunes library???

No. Back it up anyway. See this User Tip for an effective backup strategy.
Windows 2000? You can't update iTunes beyond version 7.3.2, but a reinstall of your current build won't hurt the library.

HT4914 If I have music on my ipad which is not on my computer will it get uploaded to the cloud when I turn on match, or simply be replace?

My hard drive recently crashed, and required replacement. Although I had made a back up copy, I have been unable to recover my itunes library. All I was able to get was my recently purchased music. I have most of my library on my ipad, and was hoping that if i signed up for iTunes Match I would be able to get my library from the ipad to sync with computer library. I am afraid though that if I turn on music match on the ipad now I will simply delete the 3000 songs which are on my ipad, but not in my itunes purchased music. Is there any other way to force the music files back into itunes off the ipad?

Have you failed to maintain a backu copy of your computer?
If so, then you can transfer itunes purchases from your ipod> File>Devces>Transfer Purchases

Ipod lights up but is not recognized by computer will die if usb disconnected

My 5th gen. ipod recently stopped being recognized by my computer. I use a USB cable and when unit and computer are connected the ipod screen lights up and then goes dark. The ipod click wheel and button do not work even when the screen is up (shows menu). If usb disconnects the unit immediately goes dark. Any thoughts?

That's usually a good indication that your iPod battery's is shot and in need of a replacement. If you'd like, Apple can swap out the battery for a flat fee.
http://support.apple.com/kb/index?page=servicefaq&geo=United_States&product=ipod
Otherwise, you can also send it to a third party repair service center that could do the same job for a little less. Google "ipod battery replacement" for different options.

My computer will only let me backup 5 versions of my iPhone on iTunes?

I recently somehow lost a years worth of backups on my computer, just disappeared.
Now more recently It will only allow me to backup 5 files total. Erasing and overwriting my 5th every time.
I have more than enough space. I don't know what the problem is.

OS Volume not supported ... will that issue ever be tackled?

Hi,
I got really annoyed today when I tried to install CS3 on my Mac because of this (probably famous) "OS Volume not supported" pop up. A little google research quickly resolved that it was the case sensitivity choice for my filesystem which causes all this trouble.
Does Abobe care about this issue at all or is it some really difficult intrinsic problem that keeps CS3 from working on this plattforms? As a developer it appears to be rather simple to get a couple filenames spelled correctly, but apparently this seems to be to much for a multi-million-dollar project, how sad is that?
Allow me a last comment .. as you (Adobe) obviously do not care too much about this issue, at least put it into the System Requirements in a prominent spot, so people like me would have a chance to find out ..
Best
T.

I'd say they care enough to add the warning. Used to be that the bad news was discovered a whole lot later and a whole lot more painfully.
Apple actually recommends against using such volumes (I believe) unless you have a really pressing need to do so.
Bear in mind that most of the source code for the products in question existed before support for these volumes came along.

Can't Login to Firefox Sync on my Computer but I can Login in Firefox Home on my iPhone

I had Firefox 4 beta installed along side firefox 3.6 before firefox 4 was released. After firefox 4 was released, I uninstalled the beta (ensuring not to delete my prefrences when uninstalling).
Then I started up firefox 3.6 and I noticed that all my settings had vanished (but the addons were still there) and I was logged out of firefox sync. So with the confidence in mind that I had all my settings backed up to the firefox sync server, I attempted loging into firefox sync.
It accepted my User Name and Password entries but for some strange reason, it refused to accept my key entry; which was in the older versions called the secret phrase entry (so I still had my secret phrase as the key). Attempted loggin into the latest version of FirefoxSync home on my iPhone and it worked as expected, plus it showed the correct number of bookmarks and history infos.
Why isn't firefox sync accepting my sync key, aka secret phrase? I 99% doubt this but could it be getting blocked by some entries in my "host" file as I recall adding tonnes of adblocking entries to it; preventing my computer from wasting bandwidth loading them.
BTW I attempted loggin into this firefox sync site and it kept showing me that it couldn't log me in :( Or is the site not meant for viewing what's stored on the server?

If my iPad doesn't charge when connected to my computer, could that affect my file sharing?

I am trying to share a file via iTunes on my computer to an App on my iPad and keep getting an error. The file is working from other computers. The only thing I noticed is my iPad is not charging when plugged into the computer. Since this is a USB power issue, could that have something to do with why my file won'tsync properly to my iPad?
Thanks.

When you say that your iPad is not charging, are you seeing "Not Charging" in either the status bar (unlocked) or in the middle of the screen (locked)?
If so, this is indicative of the fact that your computer's USB ports do not emit enough wattage to charge the device while it is in use. (i.e. out of sleep, with screen on)
Put the iPad to sleep (with the Sleep/Wake button) and let it be, and over time without any use, it should charge.
However, as Philly Phan said, provided that the device's battery still contained an adequate charge, it should not affect the file sync.
