If you see a Could Not Create Apple ID message, it means that you have exceeded the number of new Apple IDs you can set up with iCloud on a single device in one year.
If you see a Could Not Set Up iCloud message
If you see a Could Not Set Up iCloud message, it means that you have exceeded the number of Apple IDs you can set up with iCloud on a single device in one year.
Why did I see this message?
You may see this message when:
Signing in with an Apple ID you already created on the web, an Apple TV, or a third-party device, but have not yet set up with iCloud
Signing in with an Apple ID that has web-only access to iCloud
What should you do?
If you have another iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or Mac, you can try setting up iCloud with your Apple ID on that device. Sign in with your Apple ID, then follow the onscreen steps to start using iCloud.
Or, if you already have an Apple ID set up with iCloud, sign in with that Apple ID instead.
If you still need to set up iCloud with this Apple ID, contact Apple Support for help.
Your Apple ID is the account you use to access Apple services like the App Store, Apple Music, iCloud, iMessage, FaceTime, and more. You sign in to all Apple services with this single Apple ID and password.
When trying to set up a new Apple ID on an old iPad it says "Could not create Account, your account cannot be created at this time". What can I do to set up an Apple ID? See first comment for details.

Some more context for this question. I’m trying to prepare my late mother-in-law’s iPad mini for my father-in-law to use. It’s only ever had her Apple ID created on it, and that was a number of years ago - she died 2 years ago and it was well before that.
So I wiped it using her Apple ID, then tried to set it up for my father-in-law. But it tells me
Could Not Create Account
Your account cannot be created at this time.
According to Apple Support online:
If you see a Could Not Create Apple ID message, it means that you have exceeded the number of new Apple IDs you can set up with iCloud on a single device in one year.
However, no attempt has been made to create an account from this device in over 5 years, and hers it the only one that was ever created on this device. It’s hardly been turned on in the last two years.
I’m using a Gmail account as his Apple ID if that matters, and I’d rather not create another - he’s in his 90s and doesn’t need more confusion.
Any idea how I can resolve this?
