Outlook 2007/2010 & iCloud Control Panel log in on a Windows 7 64 PC.

Keep getting the "This Apple ID is valid but is not an iCloud account" message when I try to log in via the
iCloud Control Panel, Outlook 2007/2010 can not find the servers, but logging in via web using Apple ID
[email protected] does work.
I realise I am not alone in having this or similar problems with the migration to iCloud, but has an answer
been found for the log in issue on a PC?

hi，

I have downloaded the latest version of icloud control panel to a PC with Windows 7. My "master" data is always on my PC. With other synch software I always select "One Way Outlook to Device". I synched icloud with Outlook and it has trashed my Outlook

I have downloaded the latest version of icloud control panel to a PC with Windows 7. My "master" data is always on my PC. With other synch software I always select "One Way Outlook to Device". I synched icloud with Outlook and it has trashed my Outlook with duplicate contacts. Is there a solution. Is there selective synchronisation available?

Make sure you don't have any notes that have no content or subject or this can prevent syncing with Outlook. If you do, delete them.
If you don't, try unchecking "Mail,Contacts,Calendars & Tasks with Outlook" on the iCloud control panel for Windows, choose Delete at the prompt (the data will still be in iCloud), restart your PC, then go back and check this setting again. (Your iCloud data will reappear in Outlook after a brief delay as it redownloads.)
Then create a new note on one of your iOS devices and see if it appears in the Notes folder in Outlook mail after a few minutes.

HT4436 iCloud control panel for my PC with Windows 7

I just downloaded iCloud control panel for my PC with Windows 7, created an Apple ID, but when trying to open iCloud control panel it says the info I typed in is a legitimate Apple ID but not an iCloud login. ***?

Have you ensured that PhotoStream is on in the iCloud Settings in your iPhone?
Make sure you're connected to WiFi with a good connection.
Make sure you have at least 20% battery life on your phone. PhotoStream will not work unless you have at least 20% battery.
Try turning your phone off and then turning it back on again.

I am trying to download icloud control panel via icloudsetup.exe to windows Toshiba laptop and get a message" \icloudsetup.exe is not a valid Win32 application. Can anyone help? I am new to Apple stuff.

Need help for icloud photo stream, have activated ps on iphone 4 and set up icloud back up for email, contacts, iwork, and find my ihone. Need to find photos that we thought were being saved/shared as well but evidently not. Found on another search that I may need the icloud control panel so tried to download it but when try to install i get, C:\Users\Downloads\icloudsetup.exe is not a valid Win32 application. I am using a Toshiba laptop with windows 7, which the system requirements are met. I am new to Apple stuff, so any and all help would be greatly appreciated.

It suggests the installer is getting damaged during the download.
I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/
If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?

I can't get the ICloud control panel to download on my Windows 7 laptop?

The ICloud control panel won't download on either my Windows 7 or XP laptops. Any help?

To enable iCloud on your Windows PC,
first set up iCloud on your other devices,
then install the iCloud Control Panel for Windows...

Icloud control panel doesn't open in windows 7

I thought I had my iCloud set up on an iPhone, Windows pc, and laptop. Yesterday my pc calendar came through on the lap top for the first time. This morning, iCloud appears in my programs list but there is no "Conrol Panel" and I can't open a control panel. The calendars are not syncing. Do I need to remove iCloud and reinstall?

I'm having same issue. I don't trust that simply adjusting Digital Vibrance is returning my colors to normal. This adjustmet just makes things grayer to me.
Problems started after:
Upgrading SL (10.6.2) on Mac side
Installing Bootcamp 3.0 from SL disk onto win 7.
Downloading and updating Bootcamp 3.1
Colors all look 16 bit and saturated, though nvidia control panel says color depth = 32 bit.
I've tried:
Rolling back my driver to previous settings
manually downloading and installing both nvidia driver versions separately (181.22 32bit + 197.13 64bit)
Also tried going to control panel checking for driver updates (says latest is installed).
I own eye-one display calibration hardware but don't want to go through this process until internal functioning appears normal.
Any suggestions out there for me?
Thanks,
Mike

Icloud control panel photostream not working on windows

Using windows 7 i set up photostream to hsare the photos taken on my iphone/ipad. all worked for a while, but, have stopped now. Photo are not loading onto the PC. When i go to the control panel I also note the options buttom beside photostream is inactive (meaning i cannot check what folders have been set up). I suspect this came about during an update of versions as all was previosuly working just fine.

How do I uninstall iCloud Control Panel 2.1.3 from Windows Vista

I no longer want this program on my computer. I tried uninstalling it from the Control Panel but I do not have the option to uninstall/change it. See image below. I have uninstalled iTunes and all other Apple programs.

I attempted the uninstall under administrator rights. No difference.
However, after an exhaustive search, I found the original installation files still on my computer under C:\ProgramData\Apple\Installer. I ran the .msi files which prompted me with the options to install, repair or remove. Halle-freakin-lujah.Major pain has finally been resolved.

I can't get the iCloud Contacts and Calendar folders to appear in Outlook 2010 using the iCloud Control Panel.

I can't get the iCloud Contacts and Calendar folders to appear in Outlook 2010 using the iCloud Control Panel. Also the datafile share which ends in .aplzod is not created in Outlook. The Contacts and Calendar are sent to iCloud (verified on iCloud.com) but the iCloud folders are not created in Outlook in the Contacts and Calendar navigation panes.   I get a message toward the end of the sync process indicating that there was an unspecified error. I'm using the newest version of the iCloud Control Panel, the 32 bit version of Outlook 2010, Windows 7 64 bit, an iPhone 3GS, and the latest version of iTunes. Any ideas how to complete the sync process to the end?

Pretty much the same for me: Windows 7 64-bit, Outlook 2010, iCloud Control Panel 1.0.1, iPhone 3GS. Error report at end of setup process is shown below, and has been emailed. Any help please?
Your setup couldn't be started because of an unexpected error.

What do I do to get notes to synch to my Windows 7 outlook. Before I use ICloud and synched my IPod and IPhone by cable to my PC, it worked fine. On the ICloud control panel there is no mention of notes but on Notes on Outlook, the cloud is selected

What do I do to get Notes to synch to my Windows 7 Outlook. Before I began synching my IPod and IPhone to my PC with the ICloud and synched by cable, the synching was fine. There is no mention of notes on the ICloud control panel but the ICloud is selected on Outlook notes.

Make sure you don't have any notes that have no content or subject or this can prevent syncing with Outlook. If you do, delete them.
If you don't, try unchecking "Mail,Contacts,Calendars & Tasks with Outlook" on the iCloud control panel for Windows, choose Delete at the prompt (the data will still be in iCloud), restart your PC, then go back and check this setting again. (Your iCloud data will reappear in Outlook after a brief delay as it redownloads.)
Then create a new note on one of your iOS devices and see if it appears in the Notes folder in Outlook mail after a few minutes.

ICloud Control panel absolutely doesn't work

So I downloaded iCloud Control Panel on my PC with Windows 7 Ultimate x64 and it doesn't work. It doesn't recognize that I have Microsoft Outlook, even though it's Outlook 2007, It doesn't merge the bookmarks and I can't activate Photo stream because this option on iCloud Control Panel is all grayed out. Here is a screenshot: http://img64.imageshack.us/img64/3097/icloude.png
So what can be blocking iCloud Control Panel? I don't use any antivirus software, so that's not a problem. I also tried to use the iCloud control panel in my sisters notebook and it works perfectly.

Trying to download icloud control panel - only getting so far. Got message: The installer encountered errors before iCloud Control Panel 2.1.2 could be configured. Your system has not been modified. To retry these operations at ltr time, pls run again.

First time on here... so not sure if doing correctly.
I'm tryng to download icloud control panel to my PC (have Windows 7 - so should be ok). I only get so far - 2 times I've tried it. Keep getting message:
The installer encountered errors before iCloud Control Panel 2.1.2 could be configured.
Your system has not been modified. To retry these operations at a later time, please run the installer again.
huh?

As I mentioned before you need to start the iTunes installation, then do NOT allow it to complete. In other words go all the way to the point that the installer extract the installation files, then STOP right there.
Now look for the temp folder and the files I mentioned in my initial posting. If you don't find the temp folder it may be because you have "Do not show hidden files and folder" selected under "View Tab" in the "Folder Options". You may need to unselec it. If you don't know about hidden files and folders in Windows XP take a look here: http://txpress.blogspot.com/2007/05/show-hidden-filesfolders-in-windows.html
Another possibility is that you may have a different path for your temp folders. To find out where you temp folders are located please do the following:
- Right click on "my computer"
- Select the "Advanced" tab
- Click on "Environment Variables"
Then look for the path for both variables "TEMP" and "TMP" take note of the path and check them out.
Or you may just go to a DOS Prompt and type the following commands:
1 - %temp% and hit enter
2 - %tmp% and hit enter
to both of these commands you will get a reply such as:
'c:\temp' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or bath files.
So by looking at the reply you can see that my temp folder is c:\temp
The above is the temp folder on my machine which I've customized to my own use. Your machine may be different.
I suggest you check for the iTunes temp folder inside both your temp folders locations "TEMP" and "TMP" as they may be in different locations.
IMPORTANT NOTE: If you allow the iTunes installation to complete you will NOT SEE the iTunes temp folder and files because it will be deleted as soon as iTunes processes the installation.
Hope it helps.

ICloud Control Panel

Hi,
So I have used the MobileMe and iCloud control panels on a number of windows machines in my life and have previously been very happy with the service syncing all my bookmarks. However 3 months ago I change jobs and so have a new PC. Its a 64-bit HP Z400 Workstation running Windows 7 Professional. I am told it never had a copy of iCloud control panel on it before I started.
I successfully downloaded and ran the installer (I have admin privileges, but must always confirm actions via the Windows User Access Control pop-ups), which completes and asked to restart the computer. Once restarted the iCloud login dialog box/window appears. My iCloud account was created way back when it was MobileMe, so I have "@mac.com", "@me.com" and "@icloud.com" versions of my long in email address but they all work online and one my iPad/iPhone/Macbook Pro so I don't believe it matters, but for the record I have tried all of them.
If I enter the email address or password incorrectly I get an error so there is some kind of connection and identity check going on as otherwise it wouldn't be able to tell either of them were wrong. When the email address and password are entered correctly, and the "Sign In" button is pressed, the spinning loading progress fan/wheel appears by the button, but after that nothing happens. I have left it this like this for hours but still nothing.
I have done some investigation but have no idea what it means. I have tried running the iCloud Setup Installer as the Administrator but there is no difference. An interesting observation is that you can expand the standard installer package using Winrar and there are 2 msi files inside iCloud and iCloud64, however if you then run iCloud64 it installs as normal but when you look in task manager, the version of the iCloud.exe process that is running when you try to log in is 32-bit.
I have added all the executable components of iCloud listed in this post (iCloud: Making sure that iCloud works with security software in Windows) as "allow connection" rules to my Windows Firewall settings, but this didn't make any difference either. However I'm convinced it will be a permissions issue. Something, either a background executable or service, isn't installed properly or doesn't have the right access rights to do what it needs to do to allow the control panel to connect properly. I wouldn't be surprised if this is a consequence of Apple dropping Safari for Windows this year, as its just too much of a coincidence.
Reading all the other listings on this support community it sounds as if Apple don't really care about this issue which seems to be effecting a lot of PC users and just hide behind the "its obviously a problem with our PC" as to why their software doesn't work properly, while our IT support (and Microsoft, and HP) belittle the need to sync bookmarks and say "its obviously a problem with the installer". I'd be interested to know if it was a Mac running Windows 7, whether they would be more or less helpful.
So, anyone got any ideas? i have seen lots of posts from people with miracle cures linked to random programs that they uninstalled, but they don't help me as this is a work machine and apart from Adobe CS5, Mircosoft Office, and Google Chrome there isn't anything else on it to cause conflicts.

Windows XP is not supported with iCloud.
From Creating an iCloud account: Frequently Asked Questions
You’ll need at least iOS 5 or later, OS X Lion v10.7.5 or later, or Microsoft Windows 7 or Vista (SP2) or later to use iCloud. (emphasis mine)
Also see iCloud: System requirements
It is downloaded from iCloud Control Panel 2.1.1 for Windows
