Q: iCloud ID already taken

I got a replacement i-Pad for a faulty one but now iCloud won't work with notes and mail; I can't save to iCloud. What do I need to do?

 

When I switch it on under Settings, it responds that "the id is already taken", (I believe by me, but it doesn't allow me to proceed).

iPad (3rd gen) Wi-Fi + Cellular, iOS 6.1.3, iCloud not working

    It sounds like when you are in Settings, somehow you have answered questions that lead the iPad to create a new Apple ID.  Instead, early in the process, you should indicate that you have an existing Apple ID that you would like to use.
