When I try to connect to iCloud, say, the maximum number of free activations on the iphone
when I try to connect to iCloud, say, the maximum number of free activations on the iphone.what should I do?
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
You have to restore the device if you want to use more iCloud accounts. Make a backup and go to Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings. Note that you will have to set up the iPhone again and you will lose everything

When I try to connect to iCloud, it says there is a server error and does not log me in. This happens every time. How can I circumvent this server error?
Try restarting your computer and your router.
If there is a specific error code, take a look at this article.

On my laptop when I try to connect to iCloud it says there's a problem connecting to the server. But I can connect from my iPad what is the problem?
I know what I was doing wrong. You need to remove private browsing.

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?

everything else works on my iPhone in iCloud but when I try to connect to iCloud on safari I get the page ICloud set up iCloud on this device etc. What's up?
You cannot connect to iCloud.com from an iOS device, you can only connect from a computer. You can access any of the data in your iCloud account from the appropriate apps on your device (mail, contacts, calendars etc)

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.

Hi , I have recently bought an second hand iPhone 4 , Now most of the thing on the iPhone you need iCloud ,i try logging on to it but when i do it say The maximum number of free account have been activated on this iPhone, i don't know what to do. Help
When you have kernel panics, the pertinent information is in the panic report.
These instructions must be carried out as an administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.
Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
In the Console window, select
DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION ▹ System Diagnostic Reports
(not Diagnostic and Usage Messages) from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points down. You'll see a list of reports. A panic report has a name that begins with "Kernel" and ends in ".panic". Select the most recent one. The contents of the report will appear on the right. Use copy and paste to post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot.
If you don't see any reports listed, but you know there was a panic, you may have chosen Diagnostic and Usage Messages from the log list. Choose DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION instead.
In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report.
I know the report is long, maybe several hundred lines. Please post all of it anyway. -
I wanted to reset my device and delete everything in it. When I try to connect I tunes says "This IPod cannot be used because Apple Mobile Device service is not started". I have tried the reset all content but I couldn't remember the password. Actually, I don't remember that I had one. How can I reset and operate it the latest OS? Thanks!
Do you have WinXP, Vista, 7? Or Mac OS X?

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?
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.
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. -
how can i access to iCloud to my iphone because it appear to the screen of my iPhone when i try to access my iCloud that the maximum number of free account have been use already please help me
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. -
How can I get on iCloud when it say the maximum number of free accounts has been activated on this IPad?
A maximum of three new iCloud accounts can be created on a single iOS device. If you have already created three iCloud accounts (why?) then log in using one of those to start using it.
Otherwise, you'll have to find another device to create an iCloud account on. -

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.
