i cannot connect the icloud with my Imac

Go to System Preference and click 'iCloud'. Then, just login with your apple account and click on items you want to activate. (like mail, notes, and photo stream)

  • Cannot find the iCloud app on iMac Computer, how do I obtain it

    Ho do I install  iCloud on my  I Mac

    Please always post your operating system when you have a question: it can make a considerable difference to the answer. If you do not have an iCloud icon in System Preferences then you are presumably running an old system.
    The minimum requirement for iCloud is Lion 10.7.5 (Mavericks preferred): the iCloud Preference Pane does not appear on earlier systems - the MobileMe pane appears on Lion and earlier but is now non-functional - you cannot now open or access a MobileMe account.
    To make use of iCloud you will have to upgrade your Mac to Lion, Mountain Lion or Yosemite, provided it meets the requirements.
    The requirements for Lion are:
    Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
    2GB of memory
    OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
    7GB of available space
    Lion is available in the Online Apple Store ($19.99). Mountain Lion (10.8.x) is also available there at the same price (though it's reported to have been removed from sale in some countries so may well cease to be available generally) but there seems little point as the system requirements are the same for Yosemite (10.10.x) - which is free - unless you need to run specific software which will run on Mountain Lion only.
    The requirements for Mountain Lion and Yosemite are:
    OS X v10.6.8 or later
    2GB of memory
    8GB of available space
      and the supported models are:
    iMac (Mid 2007 or newer)
    MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)
    MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)
    Xserve (Early 2009)
    MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)
    Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer)
    Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)
    It is available from the Mac App Store (in Applications).
      You should be aware that PPC programs (such as AppleWorks) will not run on Lion or above; and some other applications may not be compatible - there is a useful compatibility checklist at http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
      If you are running Leopard on an Intel Mac you will have to upgrade to Snow Leopard to access the Mac App Store - it's available in the online Apple Store. However if you have a PPC Mac you cannot run Snow Leopard and cannot proceed further.

  • Mac cannot connect to iCloud because of a problem with my iCloud account

    I keep getting the following message when opening my email....mac cannot connect to iCloud because of a problem with my iCloud account. 

    I have another kind of message. I am connected perfectly to iCloud but receive this every hour or so : "This Mac cannot connect to iCloud due to a problem with "address mail" of said account.
    But :
    1. I AM connected
    2. When I open i Cloud prefs it asks me to type my iCloud details (email address and password), then it says iCloud is in fac ALREADY open.
    3. When reading troubleshoot doc Carolyne linked to, I read this :
    Close and reopen iCloud preferences before attempting to sign in to iCloud again.
    If that does not resolve the issue, check your email folder and Junk folder for a verification email sent from Apple.
    If there is no verification email in your email folder or Junk folder, click the Resend Verification Email button in iCloud preferences.
    My comments :
    - How can I close iCloud ? Document doesn't say. By clicking the "—" sign in iCloud prefs ???
    - I cannot see any "Verification Email button in iCloud.
    I'm on Yosemite…

    When I go to access my albums from any app on my phone or iPad, I cannot access the iCloud albums, only the albums synced with iTunes/iPhoto manually.  This is frustrating because I cannot add to those albums from mobile device, I have to add to them during a Mac sync.  I would like to be able to use my iCloud albums to organize my photos but if I cannot access them from apps it seems pointless.  I will end up having to maintain both an iCloud library and a separate iPhoto library which is more work that seems necessary.  I want everything easy to organize and access.  It seems like in this age where most people are more likely to use their mobile devices than their Macs (and some do not even own Macs) that there should be a mobile solution.  Hopefully I am simply without a clue and you folks can help me out with a fix or a source of info as a solution.  I have not found answers yet.

  • Cannot access the iCloud mail for some reason I don´t know. Worked perfect until Nov 28th, but a message with "incorrect ID/password" popped up. Contacts and iCal is accessible. Have tried from iPad, Mac, iPhone and PC. Any recommendations?

    Reset your password. Be sure your new one meets the requirements for length (8) and characters (at least one upper case and one number).

  • I cannot retrieve the password for the wifi connection on my imac and so cannot access the internet with my ipad at home.  I have a cable modem. Help please!

    I cannot retrieve the password for the wifi connection on my imac and so cannot access the internet with my ipad at home.  I have a cable modem. Help please!

    If you mean that you cannot remember the password for your WiFi network this will work for you - or it should work if you are the administrator on the Mac.
    You will need to be logged in as the administrator on your Mac and you must know the password - Open Keychain Access on your Mac in the utilities folder, click on Passwords. Find the Airport Network Password listed on the right. Double click on it. Click on show password in the the window that pops up. Enter your administrator password when prompted and click allow.
    If Keychain is locked - you must enter the administrator password there as well to unlock it and access the password.
    If you have set the Mac up for Internet Sharing for the iPad to share the Mac's connection, just create a new network On the Mac with Internet sharing and a new password.

  • HT4759 i cannot get the icloud to load any of my apps.  What is wrong tonight?  It worked fine earlier and yesterday.

    I cannot get the icloud to load any of the apps.  It worked fine earlier today and yesterday.  What is wrong?

    You said:
    "whatever is attached to usb port is not recognized and there are no drivers."
    This imples that your computer does not see any device, not just the iPod when it is connected ot a USB port.  This points to a major problem with Windows or a hardware problem. Use the WIndow's troubleshooting to get the USB ports to work.

  • Verification failed cannot connect to icloud

    Trying to erase and reset my iPhone 5 (since I have activated an iPhone 6) and cannot get past the 'verification failed, cannot connect to iCloud'.  I've been receiving the same message for 5 days.

    Hello kmb1727,
    To start with troubleshooting this issue where you are getting the error "Verification failed, cannot connect to iCloud," I'd like you to please go into your iPhone settings, and reset the network settings.  After that, please try to erase your iPhone.
    Reset iPhone settings. Go to Settings > General > Reset, then choose an option:
    Reset Network Settings:  When you reset network settings, previously used networks and VPN settings that weren’t installed by a configuration profile are removed. (To remove VPN settings installed by a configuration profile, go to Settings > General > Profile, select the profile, then tap Remove. This also removes other settings or accounts provided by the profile.) Wi-Fi is turned off and then back on, disconnecting you from any network you’re on. The Wi-Fi and “Ask to Join Networks” settings remain turned on.
    Reset iPhone settings - iPhone
    Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!
    Cheers,
    Alex H.

  • Cannot connect to iCloud in preferences

    With my macbook Air, I cannot connect to iCloud in preferences
    Also I cannot update in the App Store. Message device or computer not verified
    When I try to maintain iCloud everything looks A-OK. All devices an computers are verified.
    Also I use a iPad air with the same ID an an Iphone 4s , no problems with those
    In iTunes i can check my account en my computer is verified. There my ID seems OK
    I swiched back from Yosemite to Mavericks but I am still without Wifi
    With the also present Mini Mac everything runs fine with , yes. the same ID
    What's happening that I still get thrown out ?

    I have just had this problem myself with iCloud and not being able to sign in, but my macbook Pro was brand new and right out of the box. it had the OS X Lion v.10.7.4. So, I called Apple, but they said they have never heard of this, but it has happened to many, many others. the Apple people could not help me, but where I go to university there is an awesome tech program and they were able to help me out... after 2 hours though of the techies searching the internet for answers.
    SOLUTION:
    be in your Finder and go to the menu bar.
    open the "Go" option and go down to "Go to Folder..."
    type in "~/Library/" and press enter.
    then open the "Application Support" folder
    delete the "iCloud" file/folder
    try signing back into iCloud under System Preferences
    *this is what has worked for me anyways ... and hopefully for you too.
    Also, my Safari kept quiting unexpectantly, so we installed Safari6Lion.pkg from... http://discussions.apple.com/message/19096754#19096754

  • Mail cannot connect to iCloud - restart every time necessary

    Hello,
    I have problem with iCloud and Mail. I have a MacBook Air and I always shut down my computer by putting down the screen.
    Since a few weeks, whenever I restart the computer by putting up the screen, the Mail-App cannot connect to iCloud. It can connect to another exchange-mail server. I have to close Mail and reopen it again to get my mails from iCloud.
    Does anyone knows a fix?
    Best,
    Matthias

    In System Preferences > iCloud > uncheck sync to Mail.
    If you have other email account go to System Preferences Internet Accounts and uncheck sync to Mail
    Go to your User's Library.  How to view the User’s Library folder
    1) Go to Containers in the User's Library folder. Delete the com.apple.mail folder.
    2) Go to the Mail folder. Rename the Mail folder to MailXX
    3) Go to Preferences in the User's Library folder.
    If you find any com.apple.mail.plist files, delete these.
    Log out under the Apple in the Menu bar
    Log in
    Open Mail. It will open in an empty Mail with no accounts. Add one account at a time and verify before adding a second email account.
    Let me know if this helps. If you have messages saved under "On My Mac" we can import those into the new Identity. We'll go over those detail after we get your iCloud account working.
    We can rename MailXX to revert if needed.

  • Changed apple-ID password - cannot connect to icloud via macbook air but it works on iphone and itunes..

    My Ipad got stolen soon after i updated in to ios7.
    the idiot i am, i did not activate find my ipad, so i changed all my passwords, including the apple-id.
    now i have the following problem:
    on my iphone, everything works as usual.
    however, i cannot connect to icloud via my macbook air, if i type in my password (and trust me i have already changed it a few times, it always works on the phone but not on the macbook) i get the following message: "Sie konnten aufgrund eines Kommunikationsproblems mit iCloud nicht angemeldet werden." which means more or less that i could not connect to icloud due to a communication problem.
    does anyone have an idea how to fix this?
    thank you!
    regards

    Sign out of iCloud, the sign in with the new ID/ Password.

  • Cannot login to iCloud with Yosemite

    Hi everybody,
    a few weeks ago I updated my iMac to Yosemite. It all works fine except that I cannot login to iCloud with my wife's account.
    When she logs in into her iMac account it sometimes appears a Mac configuration screen. It seems that everything's ok, because
    the configuration finishes without error message, but when I look into the System Preferences -> iCloud her iCloud account is not active.
    When I try to login with her ID a message appears "You can't sign in at this time. Please try again later."
    It also doesn't work when I go into the System Preferences -> Internet Accounts and try there to login into iCloud.
    It really bothers me because I didn't find a solution. And also I don't understand why it works with mit ID on my iMac account.
    There is no problem to login with her ID on the Apple page, I've already tried that.
    Thanks in advance!

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    1. Sign out of your account
    (If you are unable to do this because System Preferences has frozen, Force Quit System Preferences and try again)
    2. When prompted, opt to delete, contacts, calendars etc from your Mac.
    (You are only deleting this data from your Mac, not from iCloud, the data will be reinstated when you log back in. If you need to check that the data is in iCloud before deleting it go to iCloud.com and check each section for data)
    3. Having logged out, check that the iCloud accounts along with their data have disappeared from the Mail, Address Book and iCal Applications.
    (If necessary, delete the iCloud accounts from each of these application separately from each Applications Preferences)
    4. At this point it may be worth trying to log into iCloud from the System Preferences iCloud settings again, if this works, all well and good, if it doesn't continue to step 5.
    5. Open your User Library folder in the Finder. (When in the Finder, go to the Go menu, hold down the option key (alt) and choose Library when it appears in the Go menu)
    6. Navigate to Library > Application Support > iCloud and drag the iCloud folder to your desktop. (This action only copies the folder and will provide you with a back up)
    7. Select the iCloud folder again in Library > Application Support and drag it to the trash, enter your administrators password when prompted.
    8. Restart your computer.
    9. You should now be able to enter your ID and Password in system Preferences > iCloud and log into your account. Check the services you wish to use and once you are satisfied it's working as it should, trash the iCloud folder you copied to your desktop earlier.
