Just got new air and trying to set up. When I put in my Apple ID and password it comes up with error message 'can't sign in because of server error. Try again signing on.' Trying again does not fix. I know my ID and PW are right as work on other devices.

Why do I keep getting a "you can not sign in because of server error" when I try to turn on my icloud control panel from my Windows 7 PC?

"Could't sign in because a server error" but all iCloud services in green

Hi!
I've just made a clean installation of Yosemite. When the assistant asks me for my iCloud account, the answer when I try to login is "Could't sign in because a server error". If I try to log in via icloud.com the answer is "iCloud encountered an error while trying to connect to the server". If I try to sign in via System Preferences the answer is "You can't sign in at this time. Try sign in again"
but:
- iCloud services are all ok (https://www.apple.com/es/support/systemstatus/)
- I can go to https://appleid.apple.com/ and I can log in with my iCloud id.
Creating another user has no effect.
Can anyone help me, please.
Thanks a lot.

Seems like the firewall was preventing iCloud to sign in correctly. I've tried from another network and the login was succesful.
I hope this could help anyone.
Thanks

Why the modem deconncts frequently with this error message, "You were disconnected by the PPP server. Try reconnecting."? Please, help me out.

Hello. I am using a ZTE 3G modem. Whenever I connect to internet, Sometimes during browsing or downloading it disconnects with the error message, "You were disconnected by the PPP server. Try reconnecting." There is no problem with the modem. Last few months, I have used it with Mac OS X Mavericks. There was no problem. Some days ago, I downgrade to Mac OS X 10.8.3, because I was fed up with different bugs in 10.9. Anyway, the first two days the connection were fine. But, after that, The problem began from no where. I tryed everything i could, but, It didn't help.
Please, help me out. It's very disturbing frequanlty disconnection. I am mad at the PPP is like, if I found standing it in front of me, I would beat it with a bat, who gave this so called Mr. PPP permission to disconnect my connection as it's wish!

Hi I'm having same issue since last week and now unable to reconnect. Not sure if it's an issue with the mobile company, modem or apple .
Before was able to connect eventually now connects and drops connection after 3 seconds . Using macbookpro early 2014 mavericks all ipdate - modem 4G Huawei
Haven't found any info to assist us
Hope someone comes forward soon
Thanks and good luck !

Help I cannot get on to itunes. It comes up with the message that msvcr80.dll is missing. But i need very straight forward instruction s how to fix this as I am not good with computers.

Help I can no longer access my I tunes from my computer. It comes up with the message MSVCR80.dll is missing. Can anyone give me very simple instructions as to how i can fix this. I am not very computer literate.

Uninstall your existing copy of iTunes. Delete any copies of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe) from your downloads areas for your web browsers and download a fresh copy of the iTunes installer from the Apple website:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
(The current build of the 11.1.4.62 installer was changed a few days ago, which fixed the bulk of the reports of MSVCR80.dll trouble ... but the build number on the installer was not changed. So we're trying to make sure you do the reinstall using a "new good" 11.1.4.62 installer instead of an "old bad".)
Does the install with the new copy of the installer go through properly? If so, does that clear up the error message?

Just got new air and trying to set up. When I put in my Apple ID and password it comes up with error message 'can't sign in because of server error. Try again signing on.' Trying again does not fix. I know my ID and PW are right as work on other devices.
