My Apple TV 6.1.1 is logged into iCloud but says it's not when I try to log into using Photo Stream as my screen saver. Any ideas?

When I select Photo Stream as my screen saver, it prompts me for the password. Despite the password working for logging into iCloud and iTunes Music Store, it always says it's incorrect for Photo Stream. Help!

Eric,
None of this has worked.
My Apple ID and password work with everything else. I have a good Internet connection. No Firewall active from my IMac.
LIke I said, I haven't installed anything recently and FaceTime ver. 1.0.5 on OS X 10.6.8 was working fine prior to yesterday.
I restarted my IMac to run Mavericks and FaceTime 3.0 under OS X 10.9.4 is working and I was able to login and use FaceTime on Mavericks with no problem.
For some unknown reason FaceTime on IOS and on my Mac were asking me to login into FaceTime when I haven't had to do this for quite sometime.
Older FaceTime 1.0.5 all of a sudden has decided to be a problem with login on my IMac under Snow Leopard.
The only thing left I am going to try is the two-step Apple ID verification process where I can use a app specific password, but Apple makes you wait three days before completing the two-step verification.
If this doesn't work, then I do not know what will solve this issue and now I made my Apple ID login process more complicated than I really wanted it to be.
I purposely stayed away from using the two-step ID verification login.

Whenever I log into iCloud, it says that there was an unexpected error upon logging in. Please help! (Note: My Apple ID is a Yahoo ID.

My Apple ID is verified, when I sign into iCloud on iPad it can not verify?

My Apple ID shows "verified" on the manage my ID page on Apples website, when I sign into iCloud on iPad it can not verify?

Try going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

My original Apple ID is giving me grief when I try to log on to Support- Communities. Can somebody help?

I had to create a new email address, then using the new email address I created this Apple ID to log in here. But my normal email address (and original Apple ID) is giving me nothing but grief when I try to log on to support->communities. On my iPhone: [ When I type in my normal email address and password, I'm taken to another login page that says in red letters "Please sign in again. For added security, we need to reconfirm your Apple ID." When I re-enter my password, I get an error "Safari cannot open the page. The error was: "cannot decode raw data". " ]
On my iMac running Firefox, same story but the error is something about unable to load data because of an unsupported compressed format, and it says to contact the web administrator (which would be Apple) - when I press the button "try again" it gets me to the appleid.apple.com page that asks me to pick a user name (to be seen by other members of the community). From there I also run in circles (see below):
Telephone tech support keeps sending me to appleid.apple.com which also gives me nothing but grief: it asks me to pick a user id (a nickname to be used in the forums) but when I do, I get the error message in red font telling me that there is already somebody using my Apple ID (which is of course my email and therefore is my account) -- so why are they asking me to pick a user ID if I already have one? This is very frustrating. When I call and talk to tech support, they try to get me to buy extended service to help me log in, but the reason I'm trying to log in to support->communities is because I can't afford extended service. The people patient enough to stay on the phone tell me to go to iTunes and fill out a support request, but there's no option to fill out a support request for website difficulties. Please help!
I think this is probably because my original Apple ID was "mtalldude" and instead of creating a new account when Apple switched to using email addresses as Apple IDs I just changed my ID to my email address. My original ID may be ten or twenty years old. I don't mind saying that my new login id (the one I'm having trouble with) is sal_mander at hotmail in case a website administrator is reading this and can help me and needs this info and can reset whatever is broken and is not allowing me to pick a user name. Please don't spam me fellow humans!

Thanks for the flag J.K. - they contaced me and solved my problem. On this account (which I created just to ask this question), I log in with my email rather than my user name (mtalldud). On the account that I was having trouble with, they told me to use my user ID instead of my email to log in and it worked. This is a bit confusing and seems a bit inconsistent but at least I don't need this temporary account any more to get into this community and find answers!

Welcome to the Apple community.
These types of messages often indicate a problem with the devices serial number, have you had your phone repaired at any stage or did you buy it second-hand.

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
You have to log in iCloud on an iPhone, iPod touch, iPad or Mac first before being able to use iCloud on your PC. See > http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup
If you haven't got an iPhone, iPod touch, iPad or Mac, you can't use iCloud

You will need to contact iTunes support.

I'm trying to use FaceTime but when I try to log in, the system tries to verify and gives me a number to call Apple to complete registration. Is there anything I can do?

I'm trying to use FaceTime from my IMac OS Version 10.8.5 but when I try to log in, the system tries to verify and gives me a number to call Apple to complete registration. Is there anything I can do?

There is no official public documentation of that alert as far as I know.
If you're trying to sign in to FaceTime, try to sign in to iMessage in the Messages application, or vice versa.
Otherwise, do as the alert directs. According to reports, you won't be charged for the support call if you select "Apple ID"—not the hardware model—as the product you're asking about, and cite the "customer code" in the alert as the "validation code" when you speak to the Apple representative.

I have bought a WD My Book World Edition to use for back-up of my iMac, but when I try and log onto the drive with Apple time Machine (back-up software) or connect in any other way I get the message 'There was a problem connecting to the server "MybookWorld.local" The version of the server you are trying to connect to is not supported. Please contact your system administrator to resolve the problem'
It is a brand new iMac and running Lion OSX
Any ideas on how to solve would be gratefully received?

Followed the directions on this page and it worked!

Part One - Turn on SSH (in the admin panel)
[1] Go to to http://mybookworld.local
[2] login: username will be admin, password will be whatever you have setup. If you can't remember it should be in your Mac OS X keychain (Utilities > Keychain Access, search for "mybookworld"). If you have not changed if from the default the password will be admin as well.
[3] Switch to advanced mode.
[4] From the System tab, pick Advanced.
[5] Enable SSH Access, and click submit.
[6] Click on the network tab and then the LAN button
[7] Make a note of the IP address
Small, maybe obvious, but nevertheless important point: For the install to work, your NAS needs to be connected to a router with internet access.
Part Two - Install netatalk2.2
[8] Open Terminal.app (Utilities > Terminal)
[9] Enter the following command (substitute in 127.0.0.1 for the actual IP address you noted down in step 7), then hit return:
Code:
ssh [email protected]
[10] When prompted, enter the ssh password (will be welc0me).
[11] You are now going to download the installer. Enter the following command, then hit return:
Code:
wget http://mybookworld.wikidot.com/local--files/netatalk2-2-on-whitelight/install_netatalk.sh -O install_netatalk.sh
[12] Once completed, you will need to run the installer. Type:
Code:
sh install_netatalk.sh
[13] You will be asked a number of question during install, answer yes to all. When asked about the "DHX2 login process", I opted to install the modified version, so I can confirm it works.
[14] Once the box has restarted, you should be able to connect to your afp shares and continue to use Time Machine.
