When I try to sign into my iCloud.i get a massage saying that The maximum number of free accounts has been activated on this I pad. Please can you tell me how to get round this problem ?
All you can do is re-use on of the accounts previously created on your device, or create an account to use on another iOS device or Mac (running OS X 10.7.2 or later), if you have one.

I bought a used iPod touch and when I try to set up my iCloud account, it says that the maximum number of free accounts have been activated on this device. Is there a way around this? I thought I could maybe set up the account on my PC and go from there, but it won't let me do that. It is forcing me to set up on the iPod. Am I doomed to have no iCloud account because I opted for a used device?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Unfortunately once all the 3 iCloud accounts have been created on your mobile device, you cannot create any more regardless of what you do. You will need to re-use one of the accounts that you have already created or create your new account on another device or computer. -

Welcome to the Apple community.
Once three iCloud accounts have been created on any iOS device, it can you no longer be used to create any more accounts, regardless of what you do to it. You will need to use a computer or another iOS device to create your account and then use the details to log into your account on your phone. -
I cannot sign into icloud.. It says that the maximum number of free accounts have been activated on this ipad. What can I do ?
You'll have to use a different device to setup iCloud, and then sign in using that account.
Is it a second hand iPad, or have you created multiple accounts on it already for some reason? -
I tried to set up icloud on my iphone 4 and I get this message that "the maximum number of free accounts have been activated on this iphone". My iphone was used by someone else before I got it. How do I deactivate these accounts or overcome this problem?
You were trying to create a new Apple ID for icloud. But once the device reaches is max allowed to create IDs then you can't create more. That's your situation now. To create a new account you must use another device or computer.
You can't deactivate or turn back the clock. -

"The maximum number of free accounts have been activated on this iPhone"
What I must do to sign in to icloud please help me.
I suppose the previous owner has already activate an icloud account from this iphone and the IMEI number of the phone is registered to icloud. Is there a way to erase it, or just make a second account from this iphone?You need to sign in to your iCloud on another device before you can use iCloud on your iPhone 3GS.

HT204053 The maximum number of free accounts have been activated on this iPad - what to do??
In trying to sign in to my iCloud account on a new (to me) iPad, I get the message that "The maximum number of free accounts have been activated on this iPad".
Anyone know the resolution to this issue? The iPad previously belonged to two other staff members and now won't let me use iCloud.
Thanks!Welcome to the Apple community.
Unfortunately, once all your ICloud accounts have been used up on your device, you cannot create any more, no matter what you do. You will need to either reuse one of the accounts you have already created or use another device to create your account. -

I have an iPhone 4S and when I try to add an iCloud account is gives me an error "Cannot Sign In, The maximum number of free accounts have been activated on this iPhone." Is there any way to deactivate an account? I have one for myself, one for my family and one for my work. I had all three on my iphone and then I deleted my work. I wanted to get my own person @me.com account. It wouldn't let me create it from my iphone, so I created it from my Macbook Pro. I am trying to add it to my iphone, but it keeps giving me that error. If there is a way I can deactivate my work one so I can use my @me.com personal account?

You should however be able to add existing accounts to your device, are you sure you aren't trying to create on rather than simply use an existing one. -
I receive a " the maximum number of free account have been activated on this iPhone " when I want to sign in iCloud with my Apple ID on my iphone..please someone help me..
Any one device can create only three iCloud accounts: this is tied to the hardware, not the user account, and there is no way round this.
You will have to create an iCloud account on another iOS device or Mac, then you can sign into it on your iPhone. -

You can create an iCloud account on another iOS device or a Mac running OS X 10.7.4 or later, then use this account on your phone. If you don't have one, you'll have to find a friend that will let you create one on their device as one of their 3 free accounts.
