Guessing there are some people at Apple not getting any sleep tonight. Hate to be the guys/gals responsible for this system. Yeouch.
Whew....
Tried to download a new app on my Iphone, then went to Itunes and password was invalid.
Freaked out at first thinking I got hacked, but then thought to come to good old MacRumors to check on the situation.
Going to bed now, sure it will be fixed tomorrow.

OMG I freaked out so much, thinking i was hacked. Hope they work it out as many people have got their cc details and other personal information up. One this works out, I'm going to change everything, all information

Yep, same problem here (Kuwait) on iCloud / iTunes & iDevices.
And the irony is: just an hour ago I successfully registered a new iPhone 4S - which was officially released in the region today :-/
Update: 15 minutes after posting, now iCloud is web-accessible. But iTunes & iDevices actions such as "Find my Friends" are still down.
Update #2: 5 minutes later, and everything is back to normal.

Yeah, my's is sort of up. I still can't log into my Apple Account on my Apple TV.
Phew! Thought it was just me! I had someone break into my iTunes account a few months back, and it was giving the exact same message.
Apple still haven't got the ability to run a successful web service. The stupid thing is, it would be cheaper and more reliable to use Amazon, Microsoft and Rackspace as their cloud providers. The three of them combined are the best in the industry, way ahead of Apple who have had huge problems with their fake cloud (I call it fake as they are running it out of 1, maybe 2 datacenters - both in the same country, meaning poor redundancy).
