Answer 1

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 i-cloud the dialog box re-appears asking for AGAIN user
password login and  will not remove from  main screen.
( 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.
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.
AS I TROUBLESHOOT THE ISSUE
reasons for issue posted:
iPHONE ISSUE -  the phone settings not set to sync phone with computer
iPHONE ISSUE -  Needs to connect with internet
ITUNES ISSUE-  THE ITunes settings not set correctly
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.
Additionally, for those whom use forums, your posts should be clear and concise, to the point, and I CAN NOT SAY THIS ENOUGH, EXPRESSED WITH A COMPLETE THOUGHT IN ORDER TO PREVENT AND AVIOD CONFUSION. MOREOVER, I SEE ALOT OF  EXPRESSED THOUGHTS THAT DON'T MAKE SENSE , APPEARING AS IF WHAT IS BEING POSTED ARE NOT BEING REVIEWED BEFORE THEY ARE POSTED.   I WOULD HOPE OTHERS READ THIS POST AND USE IT AS AN EXAMPLE ON HOW TO EXPRESS A POINT WHETHER IT BEING A COMMENT, QUESTION OR, WHEN ATTEMPTING TO EXPRESS HOW TO ACCOMPLISH A STEP BY STEP TASK , TO AVIOD ASSUMPTIONS. AGAIN, COMPLETE THOUGHTS ARE REQUIRED.
