Q: IPhone5 iOS 8: Can not connect to iCloud

1) I updated to iOS8 lately and it first worked fine. But 24h later suddenly my contacts, calender and notes were gone. This problem is due I can't log into my iCloud trough settings. When I open it: Verification failed, error connecting to iCloud.

 

2) Every time I open the settings app it crash immediatly for no reason. The only way to open it is in airplane mode. This also happened 24h after installing iOS8.

 

Now 6 days after the problems began I tried first to: reset all settings but that doesn't work. I also tried to restore my phone but still the same problems.

Any more ideas?

 

iPhone5, iOS8

    Hello brenden,

    First thank you for responding to my issue.

     

    Then, my problems are partly solved. I managed to get mij contacts, notes, calenders from iCloud by simply adding my iCloud mail again under the 'mail' butten in settings.

     

    But the settings app still crash when I open it in normal mode. It does work when I am in airplane mode. After I opende The app in airplane mode I turn in my WiFi and Carrier. Now when I open iCloud in the settings app I get like 10 times the error: verification failed, but sometimes for a reason I can enter my iCloud password but then again the settings app crash itself back to home screen.

     

    Should I wait till Apple bring out an update or do you have an other idea?

     

    thanks for helping,

    Mangel
