Ipad - cannot access icloud account

Daughter setup icloud account at initial setup and cannot remember password, not 100% certain of username either - cannot retrieve password as goes to that icloud account when resetting. I have a primary apple id we use for all devices so this should be a secondary one - cannot log in under primary id either...
Can I do a reset? It just sits at activate ipad screen

Welcome to the Apple community.
Unfortunately, unless you know the Apple ID, there is absolutely nothing that can be done, you cannot use your mobile device. You may be able to find your Apple ID at Look up your old and forgotten Apple ID

My Apple ID cannot access iCloud account

I received an Ipod Shuffle. I opened up my Apple ID but I am enable to open iCloud with this id. I would like to use iCloud only for music download. Can somedy help me ? I am 58 years old, then not a wiizz with this new technology. Thanking you in advance for your help.

I finally figured out the answer to my own question. I created a new iCloud account on my Mac. Problem solved!

HT204053 I just changed my AppleI D and password and now I cannot access icloud on my phone or ipad.

Due to unexplained charges to my itunes account I just changed the email address and password associated with the account. Now I cannot access icloud on my iphone 4s or on my ipad. Help!?

To change your iCloud ID, go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then sign back in with the new ID. This deletes the account and your iCloud data from your device, but not from iCloud. Provided you are signing back into the same account, your iCloud data will reappear on your device when you sign back in.
To avoid losing photo stream photos, save them to your camera roll (if not already there) before deleting the account. To do this, open your my photo stream album, tap Edit, tap the photos, tap Share, then tap Save to Camera Roll.

I recently changed my Apple ID. When I try to change my iCloud account on my Mac. I cannot access the account. I've changed the password once already. Any suggestions? My iPhone's account is fine.

I recently changed my Apple ID. When I try to make changes to my iCloud account on my Mac., I cannot access the account via System Preferences. I've changed the password once already.

Both myself and my wife have 2 separate iTunes accounts, I subscribe to iTunes Match. Music purchased on my wife's account appear on our computers iTunes library but my iPad cannot access the music she has purchased. Is there any way to overcome this

The only way to do what you want is to log into your wife's iTunes Store account on your iPad. Doing this will lock you out of your account for 90 days.

Cannot access iCloud on my iPad

i cannot access icloud on my ipad 3

I do not understand why that is the case. The iPad has been touted as a stand alone device. However, for these instances it is still tethered to a computer. If I only had an iPad/iPhone and I want to share a calendar with my wife to her iPad/iPhone, I would still have to have a PC to access iCloud.com in order to share the calendar between multiple users. There is no way to set up the share on the mobile devices. That does not make sense to me.

Cannot access icloud, cannot verify account

With my current apple activie and able to log in to itunes and other apple website, I cannot access icloud with error message "check your email xxx for instructions on how to verify your account. But checking email, no email was sent.

Hey Edgew7,
Thanks for the question. The following resource may provide a solution:
iOS 7: If you're asked for the password to your previous Apple ID when signing out of iCloud
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts5223
3. Change your Apple ID temporarily
If signing out and back in to iMessage or FaceTime didn't work, try these steps:
1. Change your Apple ID to the Apple ID you used previously. You shouldn't need to verify the email address.
2. Tap Settings > iCloud and try to sign out.
3. Change your Apple ID to the new email address that you want to use. You'll need to verify the email address.
4. Tap Settings > iCloud and sign in with the new Apple ID.
Thanks,
Matt M.

How do i transfer my pictures/music from the ipad to my icloud account

How do I transfer my pictures/music from my Ipad to my Icloud account to free up some space?

iCloud isn't designed to free up space on your iPad. It's designed to sync your data to other devices you have connected to your iCloud account, and to store your backups. It will only store your pictures as part of your overall iPad backup, but they cannot then be accessed except by restoring the entire backup back to your iPad. iCloud will only store your music if you subscribe to iTunes Match, which is separate from your iCloud account.
If you need to free up space on your iPad, you can import your photos to your computer and delete them off your iPad as described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083. You can also remove some or all of your music by unchecking the songs you don't want on your iPad on the Music tab of your iTunes sync settings and syncing.

Cannot access iCloud because I don't have the primary email and password I originally set it up with. Is there any way to remove this primary username and password without either the email address and the password?

How do I delete an old iCloud username and password. I have neither of them anymore and cannot access icloud to change settings. Set up a second username and password but icloud still won't rcognize the my birthdate and security questions answers I've answed. hope somebody else has had this problem. Thanks

If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact Apple ID Support, upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
The operator will take you through some steps you may have already tried, however they need to be sure they have exhausted all usual approaches before trying to reset your account, so you should try to be helpful and show patience with the procedure.
The operator will need to verify they are speaking to the account holder and may ask you some questions that only the account holder could know, and you will need to answer them if the process is to proceed.
Once the operator has verified your identity they will send a message through to your device which contains an alpha numeric code, which you will need to read back to them.
Once this has been completed they will send an email to your iCloud email address after a period of 24 hours, so you should check that mail is enabled in your devices iCloud settings.
Upon receipt of the email, use the reset link provided to reset your password, after which you should be able to make the adjustments to iCloud that you wish to do.

Make sure you are checking the email address you used to set up your iCloud account. Check the spam/junk folder as well as the inbox. If it isn't there, go 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 click Resend under your Primary Email Address to resend the verification email.

Hi. I am using a time capsule for few PC s. I have made 5 different account to access time capsule. but in windows when i enter account name and password for one account, i cannot access other accounts, because windows saves username

Hi. I am using a time capsule for few PC s. I have made 5 different account to access time capsule. but in windows when I enter account name and password for one account, i cannot access other accounts, because windows saves username. how can i prevent this from happenning. I really need to access all my accounts and dont want it to save automaticlly.

Why have 5 accounts if you need to access all of them.. just have one account?
Sorry I cannot follow why you would even use the PC to control the Time Capsule. Apple have not kept the Windows version of the utility up to date.. so they keep making it harder and harder to run windows with apple routers.
