Can't log into my iCloud account from Windows 8 I have got Windows 8 and I have tried several times to log into iCloud account, but nothing is working. The only way I am able to access my photos is if I go online to the iCloud website and log on. There has got to be something that I am doing wrong.
Is this the first time you've tried to access your account through iCloud's App on windows? I also had a similar issue with Windows 8.1 a week ago. 
The way I managed to solve this problem was uninstalling the iCloud from my computer, restarting, and reinstalling back the application.

Here is the Apple Support Guide for Setting up iCloud on Windows.
