Access to iCloud I have an Apple ID and want to use iCloud for Windows. I followed the instructions to set up iCloud for Windows and get the error: "Your Apple ID must be used to setup iCloud on an iOS or OS X device before you can use iCloud for Windows." I don't have an Apple device anymore. I was hoping I could regain access to the stuff I saved to iCloud. Thank you

Exactly what is says. Do you have a Mac or an IOS device that you have logged into with your Apple ID?
