My iCloud is all messed up

How do I upload my Microsoft Outlook to replace the Calendar and Contacts on iCloud? My computer is Windows 7 os and Microsoft Outlook 2007. Icloud is all messed up and will not let me delete incorrect information. It keeps saying it cannot delete because of server error.
So far, I can only download from iCloud and I do not want that!
My iphone 4 and my computer are correct. Only Icloud is wrong. I have had to disable Icloud until I can figure out how to correct it. If anyone knows what I should do, please let me know.
Thanks.

I have also had this issue. I disabled icloud on my PC and my iphone4. I removed the Icloud panel, and basically got my iphone back to where I was syncing the phone with Itunes. Once this was working fine, I went back and re-setup Icloud, as if it was the first time I did it.
Note - you will need to go into ww.icloud.com, and remove all your information from the cloud before you re-sync. It worked for me.

Totally at a loss with Duplicates/Triplicates in iCloud on all devices

OK - first, I am not an Apple novice and know my equipment backwards and forwards....but this one has me totally stumped and wondering if anyone has any ideas...
Second -- I have never used MobileMe, so this is not a migration problem....
Third - sync in iTunes is unchecked so I won't get duplicates
So, setting up iCloud -- iPad, iPhone and on my Macbook Pro -- following the instructions exactly one step at a time as given in APple's own instructions...
Sync 1 with iPhone creates duplicates in iCal, Reminders, Address Book on both Mac and iPhone
Sync 2 with iPad creates duplicates in iCal, Reminders, Address Book on Mac, Iphone, and iPad -
Results in duplicates and triplicates in all of them
The only thing not effected is Notes -- which don't seem to sync at all now with iCloud...
Now, to trouble shoot - I've gone through all the steps suggested by others here, and all it does is recreate the problem when iCloud sync is initiated again...
I have even gone to icloud.com and deleted everything there to assure that isn't corrupted.
I closed iCloud on all devices and selected "delete" from the sync options.
I deleted all calendars, reminders, notes, Address books from all the devices.
I restored the calendars, reminders, notes, Address books from TIme machine from earlier in the week - about as accurate as I can get right now with all the messed up iCloud syncs...
Re-establish sync with iCloud and EVERY SINGLE problem with duplicates and triplicates is back...
What the --
Anyone have any ideas at all? I'm going to go talk to the Genius Bar on Saturday (no appointments tomorrow on iPhone launch day), but I'm not hopeful they know more than I do about these things -- so I am turning to the experts here...
AFter spending about 14 hours syncing resyncing restoring resyncing etc. I am not back to a clean tethered-through-iTunes sync, and have found iCloud to be 100% worthless....

Thanks MaxGuru, but that absolutely did NOT do it. That was one of the first things I tried.
OK -- so, I have returend from a TWO HOUR Genius Bar appointment and here is what we figured out: there was NOTHING that could be fixed to prevent the duplicates, not matter which solutions we tired (all those mentioned in the forum, and elsewhere).
What did we do?....First, I have always backed everything up, so I had backups to play with. Make sure you back up everything before you try anything else I mention here (i.e. do an export for iCal, Address Book etc. -- I worked from fresh copies from my Time machine backup from Monday before all this mess started to assure it was as clean as possible.) I put those on my desktop for the time being so we can access them quickly and easily.
Step 1: delete all calendars, address book, reminders, notes from desktop, iPhone, iPad, and iCloud.com (yes, delete it all).
Step 2: put a clean copy of all that data back on your Mac (or PC) from your backup.
Step 3: In iCloud, turn off all calendars that they create that you are not using (work, home, calendar for example are calendars iCloud creates that I have never used since I have created my own and named them MyLastName, Holidays, etc).
Step 3: Turn iCloud off everywhere: on your iPHone, on your Mac, and on your iPad. Make sure you turn off every single feature, not just calendar. Totally turn everything off. LOG OUT OF ICLOUD.COM, DELETE iCloud account on your iPad, DELETE Icloud account on your iPhone.
Step 4: Restore your calendar, notes, address book on your Mac from backup (do not restore reminders - those are gone, never use old ones again, you'll create new down the road -- it just will not sync no matter what from an old copy at this point)
Step 4: Hard-wire sync your iPad and your Mac through iTunes. You'll have to turn on all the sync features. DO NOT sync your iPhone (unless it will be the only thing you sync with your iCloud and mac). Go back into the Info tab and after syncing turn off all the sync features you turned on (contacts, calendars, etc)
Step 5: Disconnect from iTunes
Step 6. Log back into iCloud.com on your Mac. Leave it be.
Step 6B - and this is important: On both your iPad and your iPhone, turn off all calendars that are not yours as per above.
Step 7. Log back into iCLoud on your iPad. Your iPAD will become your primary sync source. Now go ahead and one at a time turn on the address book (wait a bit, check icloud.com on your Mac to make sure it was connected properly). Then turn on the calendar (wait a bit -- depending on how big your calendar is, it might take 5-10 minutes for it to all upload to iCloud from the iPad). Check iCloud to make sure it is there. Same thing with all the other features -- one at a time from the iPad first.
Step 7. From your Mac, go to Preferences>iCloud> and turn on one feature at a time. It should now be okay without any duplicates being introduced. Give it a few minutes to make sure everything remains stable.
Step 8. Now connect your iPhone to iCloud-- be aware this might cause duplicates on your iPhone -- not to worry, there is a way to fix that. Add one feature at a time as you recreate your iCloud account on your iPhone. Start with Address, then then others...
Step 9. Check your iPhone calendar. You might have duplicates on your iPhone. That is okay. DO NOT do any further sync at this time. If you only have one copy of your calendars on your iPhone, you are good to go, and your iCloud connection should now be stable. Step 9B -- If you have duplicates on the iPhone, go to iCloud settings on your iPhone, and uncheck Calendars. When it says delete all on this iPhone, select yes. Wait a moment. Turn your iPhone back on. It should within a few moments push one single copy of the calendar to your iPhone. Now your are good to go.
Why this is such a hassle, is anybody's guess. We literally had two Geniuses at my local Apple Store working on this with me, and we had Apple's Tech Support on the phone the entire time through the process. When it takes about 7 people to correct a simple iCloud tech problem, you know there is something seriously amiss and there will be a lot of problems with people using iCloud for the smartphone features rather than the entertainment features down the road.
Anyway -- hopefull this might work for some of you. If not, good luck in finding your solution.
The overall answer seemed to have been to a) completely delete all old data and backup clean copies, and b) use the iPad DEVICE as your primary inital iCloud sync source. How backward is that, when your desktop/laptop should always be one's primary source.

I have one paid mobileme account, few days ago I have done transition to iCloud and all my iDisk, contact... gone. Today I tried login to iCloud application on my windows pc but can not, it said "this apple id is valid but is not iCloud account"

I have one paid mobileme account, few days ago I have done transition to iCloud and all my iDisk, contact... gone. Today I tried login to iCloud application on my windows pc (64bit) but I can not, it said "this apple id is valid but is not iCloud account". I can login on website icloud.com but can not login into iCloud application installed on pc. What's wrong?
I have tried another free apple ID and logged on. That's funny when I can login with free account and can not login with paid mobileme account!!!!!!

By the way - the only reason I downloaded iCloud is because Apple deleted the backup option from iTunes. Since iCloud doesn't work, I guess we have no way to protect our iTunes music collection. Absolutely stupid.

I just purchase an IPhone5C to upgrade from my IPhone4, but I do not know how to get all of my photos that were on ICloud on my Photo Stream (875 photos), on to my new phone. I thought that since my 5C can see Icloud that all photos would be there...

Photostream in the cloud only keeps photos from the last 30 days (subject to a 1,000 photo limit). When photostream syncs the photos to your device they will stay there (subject to a 1,000 photo limit) until deleted, which means you may well have more photos in your photostream album on your device than there are in photostream in the cloud.
The consequence of this is that if you turn photostream off and on again on your device (or enable it for the first time), it will only be populated with photos from the last 30 days, which may not be all the photos that were previously in the photostream album on that device.

I joined itunes on my computor at work since then I have a laptop at home ,an ipad and a iphone 4s and i just recently bought a apple tv 2 I have icloud on all the devices I have clicked on all the home sharing on everything . At home we have wifi but I t

Then i purchased an apple tv 2 , i have wifi installed and i have set up the apple tv with all the ID and passwords it asks for but it doesnt find my music collection on itunes. I have switched on the home sharing on all devices at home and at work but to no avail. please could someone tell me what i am doing or not doing I am a beginner at this stuff and would appreciate in laymans terms what i can do
Thankyou

Home Sharing is designed to work on your local network not across the internet/cloud.
Stuff is accessed under the Computers column where your local iTunes library on a local computer would appear.
Home Sharing would share your iTunes content (i.e. stuff stored in itunes on the computer, not in the cloud) with AppleTV or an iPad etc on the SAME network.
AppleTV2 will not be able to see itunes content on the work computer over the internet. It's not designed to. if the work computer was on the home network it would.
iCloud is in it's infancy and is not a mature product - iTunes TV Show purchases appear on AppleTV, but currently music does not unless you are subscribed to iTunes Match. I find this rather odd to be honest, along with the inability to buy music on AppleTV2. Movies purchased in iTunes are not authorised for iCloud viewing currently either.
Maybe it has something to do with iTunes Match 'getting in the way' - i think they assume you'll use that whereas you really want to be able to access Purchased music from the cloud without subscribing to itunes Match which is overkill for some.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You can't use iCloud storage for your music, take a look at these alternatives.

Hello Babyygrl23,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
It sounds like your iCloud Apple ID has a phone number associated with it that you would like to update. If this is the case, after signing in to the linked website below, you will see a section on the left side of the screen labeled Phone Numbers. You can edit the phone number associated with that account from there.

I accidenttly deleted my notes and the icloud cleared all the message from both ipad and iphone ...How can i get it back?? If I can ??

Your notes should be stored in your backup, so if you have backed up the iPad and that backup does contain those notes that you deleted, you can try restoring from your backup. If you haven't backed up the iPad since you created those notes, they are gone.
If you backup with iCloud only, restoring from backup involves erasing the device and then going through the setup all over again and finally restoring from the iCloud backup. This article explains the process quite clearly.
http://gigaom.com/apple/ios-101-set-up-and-restore-from-icloud-backup/
If you backup with iTunes, connect the iPad to your computer, launch iTunes and right click on the device name on the left and select - Restore from Backup. But before you do that .... turn off auto sync in iTunes - without connecting the iPad - launch iTunes and go to Edit>Preferences>Devices and check the box at the bottom of that window in order to turn off auto sync.
Email messages are not stored in your backups.

The font i used in my KEYNOTE presentation is not available when you upload it to the cloud. So, now my text boxes are all messed up. How can I select ALL font boxes of presentation and change (at least) the font style?

I have a large presentation that I need to access from the cloud THIS SATURDAY. Now, after uploading from my iMac to Cloud, the font is all messed up because the font I selected on my mac is NOT available on the Keynote Cloud....so capitalization is wrong, inconsistent, etc.
Is there a quick way to select all text and change the style? Help..I am running out of time!

Hey kaylactm,
Thanks for the question. I understand how frustrating this may be. To resolve your issue, it may be necessary to restore your device in recovery-mode:

Not really necessary to go into DFU mode when the device is just reporting it is in recovery mode if it is saying connect to iTunes. Connect to iTunes and do a restore. See this support document if you have any issues. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

The last few times I've used headphones in my iPad, the audio has been all messed up to the extent where it's better to just use the internal speakers and not the headphones. I've tried multiple pairs of headphones to no avail. Help?

The last few times I've used headphones in my iPad, the audio has been all messed up to the extent where it's better to just use the internal speakers and not the headphones. I've tried multiple pairs of headphones to no avail.
The iPad was bought in mid-June, but I did not get extended Apple-Care warranty on it. Any idea of what's happenening?

Multiple means how many? If only 2 or 3, they could all be faulty. Try the headphones in some other device, to make sure they are OK. Or there could be something wrong with the headphone port.
Your iPad is still covered by the 1-year warranty so you should make a Genius appointment and have it looked at.
Another thing to try is to plug in the headphone jack a few times in succession to see if it frees up something inside the port.

Hi Suzy Q,
I can send and receive calls.
I get "messaging stopped" when doing a lot of texts.
Texts come up "ghosted" meaning they have the text on the bottom and a transparent one overlaid on top. they then become one. But I get the ghosting most of the time when I go into a message from a contact to send a text.
When I go to call logs or text logs, the numbers come up first, and then then the names pop up randomly, meaning not in order down the page, until they are all shown. lots of lag time.
It runs slow.
I have 5 apps on here. I should be able to have a lot of apps on here, and play music, and have files, and...and....and.
I can get online but doing a Google search, when the page with the choices comes up, it is blurred and I have to tap on the screen for it to become clear and readable.
When online and scrolling, it hitches sometimes/lags/gets stuck then unstuck
I get VZWAVS has stopped. (not sure if those are the right letters)
The status bar that is supposed to be gray with the new update, goes back and forth between green--the old os--to gray. And I have found no continuity with when I get green or when I get gray.
I get a black screen on occasion.
sometimes the proximity sensor doesn't work.
sometimes when I have my bluetooth on and have "hands free mode" on, I get the a text message read through the headset and also through the handset.
I soft reboot often--turn it off wait a bit and

The side menu that had the iCloud "download all" button in it is gone and I can't get it back?

This is my first Mac. I have iTines 12. I signed in to iTunes and I was going to download each song that was in the cloud by individually clicking on it, but noticed in the side menu that there was an icloud button that could download all my stuff in the cloud at once. I went to click it and double click or something and the menu turned into it's own window. I didnt like it so I closed out both itunes iwndows, quit itunes and restarted it and the menu with the Icloud download all button has not returned. My brother swears I'm making it up, haha. Ive tried everything!

Hey There daniellaaaaaa,
First of all, congratulations on your new Mac! Like most people, one of the first things you want to do is to get all of your music from your old computer into the new one.
The article below explains how to do that. My personal preference is the suggestion to back up your old iTunes library to an external drive first. This is preferable to downloading only your iTunes Store purchases from iTunes in the Cloud.
I'll provide information for both scenarios below for you:
