Too many iCloud account registered on my device?

I bought iPad 2, used one.
I was trying to set it up for my parents, living in abroad.
They're senior, not techie. I had to creat all the Apple account, email account for iCloud, so I can manage iPad and use facetime.
But when I set up iCloud with new Apple ID, it says "no more free iCloud account can be registered on this device".
I bought USED one. I just tried my ID for test, and new ID created for my parents, and it say no more.
How many ID can be registered on one device? and how can I delete previously registered ID, which I didn't register?
I can register Apple id for face time and apple store, but not iCloud.
Thanks.

Each device can create a maximum of 3 free iCloud accounts. After that all you can do is re-use one of the accounts previously created, or create a new account on another device if you have one. If you bought this used and the previous owner already created all 3 accounts, you can contact iCloud support and plead your case and see if they will grant you a new one.
You can use your Apple ID for FaceTime and the iTunes & App stores even if you can't use it to create a new iCloud account.

TS3988 trying to get a icloud account but it keeps saying too many free accounts on my phone, how do i delete icloud accounts?

hi how do i delete icloud account from my iphone 4 as i want my own account but its just telling me there is too many free accounts registered to my phone

You can set up a maximum of 3 accounts with any device. After that all you can do is either re-use one of the accounts already created or set up a new one using another iOS device or Mac running OS X 10.7.4 or later, if you have one. (You can't delete iCloud accounts.)

How do you set up iCloud on the iPod touch if it says too many apple accounts have been signed onto the device

How do you set up iCloud on the iPod touch if it says too many apple accounts have been signed onto the device.

Welcome to the Apple community.
Unfortunately you will need to create your Apple ID (account) on another mobile device or a Mac computer. Once three iCloud accounts have been created on an iOS device, it doesn't matter what you do to that device, no further accounts can be created on it.

I have an iphone 4 that says i have too many free accounts on icloud. Ive never had an account, what should i do?

You can only set up a limited number of new iCloud accounts per device. Is it possible that someone else created these accounts? Is it a second-hand device? In this case you will have to use an other device if you want to create a new iCloud account.

Hi there
I had the same problem and I found this answer to a similar question to ours, so I copied and pasted it for you
Reset the device by holding down the home button and the sleep/wake button at the same time for approximately 10 seconds. After it resets the message will be gone and you can go to settings > icloud and put in your password.
That seems to be a bug with the password alert where it won't respond correctly sometimes.
Hope this helps

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Whenever you use your Apple ID to sign into iCloud it's always the same account so to speak.

How do I get the correct ICloud account on my iOS devices?

Hello. A few days ago, I changed my Apple ID username from my old email to my new one. Everything worked fine and I was able to re-login to the App Store, iMessage, etc. A few days later, I got a message from iCloud asking me to login. When I tried to login it failed and I realized that it was using my old Apple ID email to login to iCloud. So I went into accounts and tried to delete that account and add the account with the correct Apple ID. When I tried to delete the account it asked for my iCloud password to confirm, which doesn't work because it is using my old Apple ID. I then tried to add my current iCloud account without deleting the old one, but when I did it said it was already on the device. How do I get the correct ICloud account on my iOS devices?

Log out of the old ID, then login using the new one with the correct pw.

HT204053 can you have two separate iCloud accounts on one iMac device?

can you have two separate iCloud accounts on one iMac device?

You can have only one iCloud "user configuration" per local user on the Mac. Who the local user belongs to doesn't mind. Since it's a local user it's not related with who actually uses it. So let's say you want to set up Photo streaming using your iCloud user, just configure iCloud (under System Preferences) the same way you did on your phone and you're done.
But, beware: if you're only interested in synching photos, uncheck everything else when configuring iCloud on the Mac, otherwise you will merge, for example, your husband contacts, calendar and mail with those on your phone.
If you want to avoid any problems you can easily create another local user on the Mac with your name, under System Preferences, System, Users & Groups. After you create the user, logoff. The Mac will ask if you want to disable autologin (since there's more than one user that can log in now), answer yes and you will be presented with a logon screen. Click on your account name, insert the password and configure iCloud to sync with your phone.

Are you trying to change the iCloud ID on your phone?
Also, you can change your iTunes ID by going to Settings>iTunes & App Store, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with the ID you want to use.

How many iCloud accounts can you create on Mac?

I use different emails for different purposes (subscriptions, shopping, forums, iTunes, etc.). With that in mind, I created 3 iCloud email accounts on my iPad and upon trying to register a 4th one I was told that this device is no longer eligible to create an iCloud account. Anyways, does the same rule apply to Macs (3 IDs per device)?

Why not create aliases to your primary iCloud mail account for those other email needs. That way you can access all emails from each of your devices with the same email client, Mail. On your Mac Just create a Rule to put emails to each alias in its own specific folder.
OT

How could i know the icloud accounts associated to one device?

When I try to make a new iCloud account from my Mac says I can not because I have already done all accounts that could be done on that device, but I don’t know which are these, is there any way of knowing about these accounts?

I have a jframe which have always displayed a jpanel and contains also a jdesktoppane
with the last to have a minimun of 0 jinternalframes and maximun 2 jinternalframes
displayed at the same time.
I want to do the following.
If the jdesktoppane doesn't have any internalframe then the panel should have the focus,
else if there is one internalframe (even if this is iconified) i want to be displayed and when the user closes it, the focus to travel at the panel, else if there are 2 internalframes (even if they are iconified) to display the one of them and when the user closes this to display the other one.
Here is what i have done but i don't know what is wrong.
[code start]
this is the ContainerListener of the JDesktopPane which i have registered for this job.
public class DesktopContainer implements ContainerListener {
public void componentAdded(ContainerEvent e){}
public void componentRemoved(ContainerEvent e) {
if(aDesktopPane.getAllFrames().length==1) {
JInternalFrame[] inFrames = aDesktopPane.getAllFrames();
try {
inFrames[0].setIcon(false);
aDesktopPane.setSelectedFrame(inFrames[0]);
}//end try
catch(Exception exc) {}//end catch
}//end if 1
else if(aDesktopPane.getAllFrames().length==2) {
JInternalFrame[] inFrames = aDesktopPane.getAllFrames();
try {
inFrames[0].setIcon(false);
aDesktopPane.setSelectedFrame(inFrames[0]);
}//end try
catch(Exception exc) {}//end catch
}//end if 2
else {
internalPanels.RequestFocus();
}//end else
}//end componentRemoved()
}//end class DesktopContainer
[code end]
Any help is appreciated.
