My iCloud won't let me sign in on my Macbook Air

My startup drive is full and I was wondering if I back up my videos, like films and tv shows from my itunes to my iCloud but when I sign into it on system prefrences it says the apple ID and password is invalid which is isnt because I check loads of times. Please help me!!

First of all, you can't sync videos to icloud as a means of storing it.  You should look at Dropbox or a similar service for this.
As for the ID/password, you should double or triple check your entries, because if icloud doesn't accept them, then something's wrong.

    The best approach would be to take the iPad to the school's IT person and see what is going wrong, why it will not accept your sign-in.  That person can make sure the userid and password are correct on the iPad.

  • I can't backup my icloud on my ipad because icloud won't let me sign in with my new email address

    How can I backup my icloud files on my ipad and iphone when icloud won't allow me to login with my new email address when I try to initiate backup. My apple i.d.was successfully changed in April 2014 but some aspects of icloud don't seem to have accepted those changes.

    If you need to change the iCloud ID on it, you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iPhone, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.  If you don't know the password for your old ID, or if it isn't accepted, go 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 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.

  • ICloud won't let me sign in on Apple tv

    IiCloud not letting me sign in on apple tv

    The update seems to be defaulting to the United States region - which also explains why most users are not experiencing a problem with logging in to iCloud, as most users are in the USA.
    However for the rest of the World, a visit to reset the Region to one's own country, in settings, fixes the bug, and one can then proceed to log in fine.
    Rather exasperating [as we say here in Blighty] and not a bug we've had before, on previous updates, I think...

  • I changed my Apple ID password, and now my iCloud won't let me sign in on my Mac. How do I fix this?

    I changed my password for my Apple ID yesterday for security reasons (I change all my passwords every 2 months). I can log into iCloud on the internet to check my mail and my calendar plus I was able to change my password on my iPhone so it can still sync. However, my mac keeps rejecting my new password and won't connect. So I deleted the account off my Mac, and now when I'm trying to re-add it it keeps saying "You can't sign in at this time". Is there a glitch in the system? Is anyone else having the same problem?

  • Since upgrading to os x maverick, my FaceTime won't let me sign in and continues to prompt me to put in my iCloud password.

    Since upgrading to os x maverick, my FaceTime won't let me sign in and continues to prompt me to put in my iCloud password. It sometimes asks me to put it in 5-6 times and then it gives me an error saying that the program certification is revoked or expired. I live overseas and previously utilized FaceTime to talk to my girlfriend.

  • How to remove the old email address that was hacked from my iCloud account when iCloud won't let me?

    How to remove the old email address that was hacked from my iCloud account when iCloud won't let me?
    Pretty much the the email that I used (but didn't verify) to create my iCloud account was hacked and now I can't remove it from my iCloud account due to the iCloud password also being changed by the same person and the fact I had "Find my iPhone" app on my phone also??? I had to change my iTunes email as well but that was far easier so yeah :S.
    Please help. I live in NZ, out in the country, so reception is rare and so is getting into the nearest town that has an Apple Store.
    Thanks

    To change the iCloud ID you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iDevice, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.  If you don't know the password for your old ID, or if it isn't accepted, and if your old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, go 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 iDevice 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.  When finished 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.

  • Trying to change password.  Changed it successfully, but still won't let me sign on. Says incorrect password

    I Am trying to download an ebook to my new iPad mini.  I already had an account for my ipad2 but forgot the pw. I successfully changed the pw, but it still won't let me sign on. Says incorrect pw. Ultimately I would like all 3 of my devices (iPhone) linked to the one account. I have "chatted" twice with Adobe. They referred me to this site. help!!!!

    What password are you talking about? What did you reset?
    When updating to iOS 7 the process will ask you to set up a four digit passcode as a security feature. If you created a passcode there then that is what you are being asked when you first turn on your iPad or when you wake it from sleep after an Autolock. If you cannot remember or do not know your passcode take a look at this Apple support page:
