I am trying to download the find my phone app and sync my devices, an iPhone 5 and an iPad 2. I tried to tap the icloud in general setting but there is no icloud there. When I tried to download the find my phone app from the apple store I got a message to Upgrade or Quit.. When I tapped Upgrade i got the safari can't find page because of a invalid address. First how do I get icloud into my settings menu?

While looking at a photo on photobucket.com I got the pop up message "Safari cannot open the page because the address is invalid". The pop up will not go away and so I cannot use Safari. I shut down the iPad and restarted and in the second before the pop up appeared managed to delete the photobucket.com address, but the pop up still appeared even though there is no address shown. Incidentally I notice someone else had the problem in connection with photobucket. Maybe I have to delete Safari and reinstall, though there may be a file on the iPad that will not be eliminated this way.

It seems to be caused by Javascript. If you disable it in settings/safari the pop up window will not appear. However the drop down menus etc will not work without Javascript. Best option is to download "Chrome" or "Mercury" or wait for Photobucket to fix it:)

If you enable the "De Bug" console it will sometimes work. I am currently using an Ipad 1 with OS 5.1.1 but the problem also happens on an Ipad 3 with OS 7
