Apple ID and icloud account

Hey I have a problem:

I just downloaded the icloud for pc. I installed it. When I tried to login I get the following error:

"This Apple id is valid but not icloud account."


I went to icloud website and I have it all setup.

I have the same problem. I've updated my Mac to 10.7.2 ->


In the System panel, when I select mobileMe and enter the credentials, I am told my account has been upgraded to an iCloud account. I can log into iCloud.com with these credentials, and my iPhone and iPad have successfully migrated to iOS5 and are happily syncing etc.


When I click on the iCloud system preference pane on the same Mac, with the same credentials, I am told "This Apple ID is valid but is not an iCloud account."


This has therefore made it impossible for me to use mail, calendars, contacts etc on my mac.


Please offer help, Apple.
