Valid apple id is valid but not icloud accout

this is what I get when trying to set up the Icloud, any ideas

I was, and still getting, the 'valid id but icloud account' but got an idea from another forum how to solve this issue. I have a PC running Windows 7 (updated today) and wanted to set up Outlook 2010 to send and receive my iCloud mail. Outlook could not find the server information on its own. A forum mentioned Mobileme. Before I set up my iCloud account i was prompted to sign out of Mobileme. Now that I have an iCloud account, signed in on Mobileme and it started to 'migrate' the account info and suddenly the iCloud settings panel appeared. I click Mail and Contacts. It set up my Outlook. During the set up you can select to have the iCloud icon appear in the system task bar. I recommend you select that option because you can access the setting panel from that icon. If the Mobileme is no longer on your compter, you can still download it via Apple's support page. This is what worked for me, but I should repeat this did not solve the sign in issue. Since I had this problem on 2 computers, I tend to agree with those who believe this an Apple server problem.

Hi reswaikiki,
Usually if it says your Apple ID is not an iCloud account, that means you have not yet enabled your Apple ID as an iCloud account. So you did set it up correctly on your iPod touch?
If not yet, please see Set up iCloud on all your devices.

To use iCloud, you must first set it up with your Apple ID on a device with iOS 5 or a Mac with OS X Lion.
On an iOS 5 device go to Settings>iCloud and sign in using your Apple ID.

Music purchased from the iTunes Store is automatically available in iCloud. This is "iTunes in the Cloud" and does not require an iCloud account. The music is stored in the iTunes Store, not in a personal iCloud account.
If you don't have any Apple devices you will not be able to create an account. It wouldn't be any value to you anyway as it syncs data on you computer with your Apple devices. If you don't have any, there is nothing to sync.

You will have to sign in to I cloud on any of the iOS device with version 5 or above once with your Apple Id to use your Apple Id as I cloud account. So if you have an iPhone iPad or iPod touch with iOS 5 or later.
On your iOS device go to settings > I cloud and sign in and you should be able to use your Apple Id as an icloud Id.

Go to the 'Go' menu in the Finder and hold down the option key to reveal the Library. Then navigate to library > preferences > system configuration and drag the 'Networkinterfaces.plist' file to the trash and restart for mac. Now try again.

I downloaded icloud because some of my music files got deleted, and I was hoping to be able to re-download them if I installed icload.Supposedly you can use your Apple ID to sign.

You can't create an iCloud account on your PC. You have to first create an iCloud account on an iOS device (iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch) or Mac (running OS X Lion or higher). After creating the account on one of these devices you can use the ID to sign into the account on your PC.

I don't have any apple products personally, this is for work to use Photo Stream so when Superintendents & Project Managers take pictures of their construction site, I am able to have those images immediately.
Thank you

You can not create an iCloud account using a PC, you will need an Apple product. Once the account exists you can logon to it from a PC.

I've tried the account set up several times but it keeps just spinning me in circles, asking me to sign in and then I get the same message again. This is getting frustrating and I really don't seem to be able to get help. I can't contact customer support because I have a PC and there is a serial number of an apple device required.Can anyone help please?

You can't setup (create) an iCloud account using a PC. You must use an Apple device, a Mac or an iPhone etc. Once you have created an account you can sign in from your PC.

repeating error message reads: "valid apple id but not icloud account." when trying to start my icloud account. I tried downloading on a different computer and logging in and it did not work. I have restarted my computer several times. I have changed my password several times. I have tried to access the icloud page. Nothing has worked. Now I have this stupid app and some of my music is still not being shared on both of my computers.

I have the same problem signing in...but, I finally got a screen saying you have to set up a account on a device..like an ipad to get a iCloud sign in ...my apple id is [email protected] and this screen reset to [email protected]
If you don't have an apple device you may be out of luck. I don't know. I'm still waiting for help just as you are...good luck to both of us though.

My friend has lost his iPhone 5.on find my iPhone when entered id and password app says id is valid but not activated. What should I do to find that lost iPhone

If Find My Phone has not been activated on the iPhone before being lost there is nothing more that you can do to locate it with iCloud. The only option is physical search for it.
If you have an idea of the location, call the iPhone and see if you can hear it ring.
