Unable to set up iCloud email on iPhone with apple id as a yahoo email?
I set up my wife's iPhone with the new iOS 5 software. Her apple id is a yahoo email address. I also set up a @me.com email address for her and merged it from MobileMe to iCloud. However, I am now unable to have her phone set up with the new @me.com address and I am unable to change her Apple ID from the yahoo address to the @me.com.
Its really straight forward. My Galaxy s5 started at 4.4.4 and now is at lollipop 5.0.
You are talking to fellow users and ones using residential products. IF you are a Verizon Wireless user you might do better to ask there. https://community.verizonwireless.com/welcome
You may have been caught be the recent retirement of some of the old servers rather than the upgrade to 4.4.4.
Triple check your email configuration
http://www.verizon.com/emailsettings
if not using Verizon/yahoo email
outgoing smtp.verizon.net port 465 SSL plain txt passwords
incoming pop.verizon.net port 995 ssl plain text passwords.
Not if you happen to use the Yahoo interface to Verizon email its
outgoing outgoing.yahoo.verizon.net port 465 SSL plain txt passwords
incoming incoming.yahoo.verizon.net port 995 ssl plain text passwords.

Hello everybody!
I'm using ipad mini and the iOS is 7.0.4. I used an Apple ID (called: A), and I activated my ipad, used iCloud & Find my iphone with this A account. But now I've changed address of Apple ID from A@.... to the new one: B@.... (just changed email address of Apple ID, not create a new ID), and then I signed out iCloud, old Apple ID, etc... on my ipad and signed in with new id B@.... Everythings seem OK, I can sign in/out iCould, turn on/turn off Find my iphone as well with the new one (B@...)
But I still have a question (and still confusing with it): What will happend when I restored my ipad? I mean my iOS is 7, so which Apple ID will be asked to re-activate my ipad after I restore it, old id A@.... (this one cannot be used now) or the new one B@...., please?
Thank you very much for your helpful informations!If you've succesfully changed the ID for iCloud and Find my phone, it will be your new ID you use if you need to restore it.

My apple ID is Steven.carter(AT)logan(DOT)edu my original iPhone account I'd was sstevostv(AT)aol(DOT)com. The AOL account is inactive. I am unable to set my iCloud up, I need my iCloud account to be under either sw.carter(AT)live(DOT)com or Steven.carter(AT)logan(DOT)edu.
<Email Edited by Host>I am having a similar issue. I had to change my apple ID because my email account is close, but am unable to change my iCloud ID. It seems there is no way to change the iCloud ID. Unless I am missing something, this seems like an oversight by Apple. Any advice anyone has would be greatly appreciated.

I cannot set up icloud on my iphone 4s. When I go to settings it always says check your email but when I check my email there is none sent to me.
Check your spam folder to be sure it isn't there. If not, try going to https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/ and Manage your account. There should be a link there to resend the verification email.

Still can not set up icloud on my iphone 5. tells me account is not verified. I just went through changing my user name and password. now what?
Make sure you are checking the email address you used to set up your iCloud account. Check the spam/junk folder as well as the inbox. If it isn't there, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage your Apple ID, sign in, click on Name, ID and Email addresses on the left, then to the right click Resend under your Primary Email Address to resend the verification email.

When my daughter got her first iphone we set it up with my email address, she now has her own email & new iphone. I want to use my email address for my icloud, can I delete the content from the icloud account and continue to use my email?
Yes, but be sure she is on a separate iCloud account with a separate ID before deleting anything. Be sure there is nothing that you want to keep on your device too. When you delete the data from iCloud it will be deleted from all devices signed into the account. Then you can delete the data from the existing account by doing the following:
To delete the contacts, go to iCloud.com from your computer, log into your iCloud account and open Contacts, click on All Contacts on the left, to the right click on any single contact to select it, click on the Actions (gear shaped) icon at the bottom left and choose Select All, then press the Delete key on your keyboard.
For Calendars, open the calendar on icloud.com, click Edit on the bottom left, then tap the minus sign to the right of each calendar to delete it.
For Notes, open notes on icloud.com, click on each note on the left, then click Delete at the top to delete it.
For Reminders, open reminders on icloud.com, click on each reminder and press your Delete key to delete it.
For Mail, open your mail on icloud.com, click each folder on the left (such as your inbox), click on a single message to the right, press Control-A on your keyboard to select them all, then press your Delete key. Repeat this for each of your mail folders except Trash. When finished, click on the actions (gear-shaped) icon on the bottom left and select Empty Trash.
If you also want to delete your iCloud backups you can go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>Manage Storage on your device, tap the name of your device under Backups, then tap Delete Backup. -
i am trying to set up icloud on my iphone when i go to settings icloud it says verifying and a box pops up for me to sign in with my apple id but that has my old apple id on it. help??
Have you already verified your "new" email address? If not then please check your inbox for a confirmation email (also the junk folder). If you do not have a confirmation email then please sign in at https://appleid.apple.com and press "verify" for confirming your email address.

Using OS7 I am unable to set up iCloud but was able to do so with the earlier OS
I am using OS 7 on my iphone 4s and iPad 2 an am unable to set up icloud for the Find Me App. I am redirected to the icloud section of settings to sign in but there is no place to do so.
Are you using mobile Safari on the iphone to log into icloud.com? If so, you can't access icloud.com with mobile safari.
As for icloud. Check Settings>icloud. Are you logged into the right icloud account? If so, on the same page, turn on Find My iPhone, if that's what you want to do.
If what you mean is that the Find My iPhone app doesn't let you log into icloud, then you must not be using the right ID. -
Hi,
I have set up iCloud on my iPhone and Mac. When I go to iCloud on the web, sign in, and click on one of the apps (Calendar, contacts, etc.), I get a message telling me to enable the app on my iOS device - which I've already done. Any idea why it's not working for me? Thanks!This is presumably because you are running an earlier system than Lion. (Please always post your system when you have a question.)
The minimum requirement for iCloud is Lion 10.7.5 (Mavericks preferred): the iCloud Preference Pane does not appear on earlier systems - the MobileMe pane appears on Lion and earlier but is non non-functional - you cannot now open or access a MobileMe account.
To make use of iCloud you will have to upgrade your Mac to Lion or Mavericks, provided it meets the requirements.
The requirements for Lion are:
Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
2GB of memory
OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
7GB of available space
Lion is available in the Online Apple Store ($19.99). Mountain Lion (10.8.x) is also available there at the same price but there seems little point as the system requirements are the same for Mavericks (10.9.x) - which is free - unless you need to run specific software which will run on Mountain Lion only.
The requirements for Mountain Lion and Mavericks are:
OS X v10.6.8 or later
2GB of memory
8GB of available space
and the supported models are:
iMac (Mid 2007 or newer)
MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)
MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)
Xserve (Early 2009)
MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)
Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer)
Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)
It is available from the Mac App Store (in Applications).
You should be aware that PPC programs (such as AppleWorks) will not run on Lion or above; and some other applications may not be compatible - there is a useful compatibility checklist at http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
If you are running Leopard on an Intel Mac you will have to upgrade to Snow Leopard to access the Mac App Store - it's available in the online Apple Store. However if you have a PPC Mac you cannot run Snow Leopard and cannot proceed further. -
after setting up iCloud for my iPhone and iPad, syncing the calendars to my desktop PC, via USB and iTunes, doesn't seem to work. What's going on?
Regarding the USB, see if zapping the PRAM helps.

when i want to set up icloud on my iphone, it tells "can not sign in maximum number of free acounts have been activated on this iphone" what can i do now?!
You won't be able to create a new iCloud account on your phone as the maximum number of accouts have already been created. Your only options are to either re-use one of the accounts previously created or create a new account to use on a different iOS device or Mac (running OS X 10.7.2 or higher), if you have one.

I set up iCloud on my iPhone, after that my contact list was disapeared, and I coudn't find out in my iCloud account. so How can I get back my contact list?
If your contacts aren't on icloud.com when you check from your computer, and they aren't on your phone, you'll have to try restoring your last backup (or recover them from another backup source).
