Im signed into an icloud account on my phone and i dont know the password so i did another email to it and it still wont get off my phone.
Im having a problem with my iCloud account. I had changed it to another account because i had forgotten its password and when i enter it it doesnt work. I tried to delete it off of my phone but it asks for the "Find My iPhone" and either Cancel Or Turn off and it asks for the password that i had forgotten. I had tried to get the password for te account reset but anything that i do it doesnt send me the iForgot recovery password.
Hello, JillWalker.
You will need to remove your device from the Find My iPhone Activation Lock section of iCloud.com. Once you have removed your device, process the restore again.

i have a random email for my activation email and i dont know the password and it wont let me active it unless i sign in with that email and password how do i change it so that doesnt pop up or till it doesnt ask for it
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

My cousin gave me his macbook pro in is will and didnt leave me the password to his mail account. Is it posible to delete the account? If so how?
Did he give you the software discs that came with the computer? If so, boot from the #1 disc, and reinstall the whole thing and start clean. If not, you can just create a new user account and don't use the old one. That way you can set mail up to get your own mail.

Everytime I try and sign into my iCloud account it tells me I can't log in due to a server error, but there is nothing wrong with my server . It also wont allow me to view any of my Photos or Documents that I have backed up. Please help
Hi,
Are you running any Anti-virus software or do you have your firewall turned on? If so, disable them and try again. If that doesn't work, delete the iCloud account and then sign it back on again.
Make sure you are running the most current version of the iCloud Control Panel:

HT201317 can i sign into my icloud account from a friends computer so i can get to my pictures
Can I sign into my icloud account from a friend's computer so i can get to my pictures?
What you need is a file named Domain.sites (iWeb 2) or Domain.sites2 (iWeb 3). Copy it from your laptop to your other computer at home.
It's located in your Users/Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder. Place it in the same folder on the other computer.
All the files for the site are contained in that file/package. After editing you will have to publish the changes to your hosting server.
NOTE: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Home/Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible in Lion or Mt. Lion enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and press the Return key - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
For Mavericks, 10.9, go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring the this window:
where you can check the Show Library Folder checkbox.
To open your domain file in Lion or later or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an application.
do shell script "/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"delay 1
tell application "iWeb" to activate
You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
Just launch the application, find and select the domain file in your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder that you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
WARNING: iWeb Switch Domain will overwrite an existing Domain.sites2 file if you select to create a new domain in the same folder. So rename your domain files once they've been created to something other than the default name.

New computer but Photostream does not work. I am signed into my account but get the following message: In order to use Photo Stream, you have to be signed into your iCloud account in System Preferences. I go to system preferences and then get a message that says that my account cannot be accessed. However, I am using my icloud account for email and other items and it works fine. Any thoughts?
Are you getting this messages in iPhoto? If so try the following (again?):
Log out of iCloud in the System/iCloud preference pane and disable Photo Stream in iPhoto's Photo Share preference pane. Then log back in and re-enable, respectively. That should jump start Photo Stream.

Im trying to activate my old phone but it says we need to sign into a icloud account that is old so its been disabled and the email too. Is there anyway we can get it back?
Welcome to the Apple community Jack.
If you mean that Find My Phone is asking for a password to a different Apple ID to your current Apple IDand that ID is a previous version of your current ID, not an entirely different one.
This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details.
The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID using your current password, you don’t need access to this address if it’s previously been used with your Apple ID, once you have saved these details enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone" and delete the account from your device.
You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, save it once again and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.

You're signed into an iCloud account that doesn't have permission to open this spreadsheet.
Running Safari Version 8.0.3 (10600.3.18) on MacBook Pro with Yosemite Version 10.10.2 (14C109).
I have one spreadsheet in Numbers on iCloud.com. I do not have Numbers installed on my Mac, I just use Numbers (Beta) on the iCloud.com website. I don't need nor want Numbers installed locally on my Mac for my purposes. I made this spreadsheet when I first installed Yosemite, a couple months ago.
This morning, I edited the spreadsheet, then tapped on the margin to clear the editing tools. The spreadsheet saved. I closed it, and saw that it updated the date in Numbers on iCloud.
This evening, I restarted my Mac, restarted Safari, logged in on iClout and went to Numbers. I noted that the time was correct, but the spreadsheet name was corrupted. I tried to open it, and got a message: "You're signed into an iCloud account that doesn't have permission to open this spreadsheet."
Well, that is hogwash. I have one Apple ID and one iCloud ID. I am already signed into the iCloud.com account via Safari and the correct username is displayed.
I logged out, cleared Safari cache, quit Safari, then went back on. Same problem, spreadsheet name was corrupted and the message popped up when I tried to open it.
I have done some searching and have found some others who had a similar problem, yet no answers.
Does anyone know what is going on or how to fix?Hey FatFingerDan,
It looks like you were accessing iCloud around Mar 11, 2015.
Is it working now? There were some system issues last Wednesday. You can check System Status at
Apple - Support - System Status
Note you can scroll back on the Detailed Timeline by clicking the back button to see some previous days.
Take care,

TS3988 I cannot sign into my icloud account
I cannot sign into my iCloud account, it keeps saying this; This Apple ID is Valid but is not an iCloud account, so what is?
That message usually means that you have not set up iCloud using a device with iOS 5 or a Mac with OS X Lion.
