After getting everything installed on both an iPad1 and an iPhone4, I discovered that I had accepted the default offered for my iCloud username and password on my iPhone. Because it is not the same on all devices, there was no cloud sharing. The iPad has the message app but none of the contact data came over from the iPhone. The iPhone has the incorrect username/pw but I got it right on the iPad.
The problem is that I cannot change the username/pw on the iPhone. The software tells me that it doesn't match and offers an "edit" function, but it does not work. The username is grayed out. There is no way to change it.
When I check Setting>iCloud, I see the "Account Not Verified" display and get a pop up error message from iCloud saying "User name or password is incorrect" and offering the options to Ignore or Edit. Choosing Edit takes me to the iCloud Account panel with Apple ID showing the incorrectly chosen information grayed out therefore it cannot be changed. Strangely, the password field is active and I can change it, but there is no Apple ID set up for that user name (nor do I want to set one up for it).
I've posted with Apple support but suspect that it will be days before their teams can get to it due to being swamped with release calls. I've also read many forums and even found the subject, but none of the offered solutions work for me.
Anyone?
