How do I set up my iCloud to back up iPhoto? I found an option to stream my photos, but not to back them up.
Only for 30 days. If you have your Mac and iPhone signed into the same iCloud account and have Photo Stream enabled on each device
AND have iPhoto's Photo Stream preferences set as follows:
the photos you take on your iPhone will automatically be imported into your iPhoto Library.

I have 3 years of pictures on my iMac in iPhoto. I have never used iCloud. Can I join iCloud and put all my pictures in iCloud at one time?
When I try to put my pictures on iCloud it says I can either the last 18 months for the last 30 days something like that.
Where are you seeing this message, and how are you trying to put your pictures on iCloud? There are two ways to use photos with iCloud right now:
My Photo Stream:(see iCloud: Photo Stream FAQ ) This let's you upload full resolution photos to iCloud, and other devices sync with these photos in iCloud. It is limited to 1000 photos, and only the photos added during the last month will be kept.
Shared Photo Streams:(see iCloud: iCloud Photo Sharing FAQ) Shared streams can hold more photos (up to 5000), and the photos will stay until you delete them. However, they will be reduced in size, and there is no way to organize them. They will appear in exactly the order you add them to the stream.
Both ways are designed to transfer photos, not as a long term storage. -
Would like to verify Time Machine backup but when I enter TM and then open iPhoto, it only provides me a gray window telling me the size of the file. How do I make sure all iPhoto pictures have been backed up on Time Machine?

Since Snow-Leo time machine offers an option to verify backups, but I have found that it does not work for external disks attached by USB or FireWire.
Yes, that's for network backups only.
What can I do to make sure that the backups are OK?
You can tell if the File System (the various directories, catalogs etc.) is ok by repairing your backup drive, per #A5 in Time Machine - Troubleshooting.
You can "spot check" whether the Time Machine "Star Wars" display seems correct.
You can do a full system restore to another disk per #14 in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions, then start up from it and see if things are there and seem to work.
You can keep "secondary" backups (always a good idea). See #27 in the FAQ post for some suggestions. -

How do you connect to photo stream on the Mac Pro? When I sign onto iCloud there's no option for it.

How do I get signed into Icloud when it says my apple id is valid but not an icloud acct?
How do I get signed into Icloud when it says my apple id is valid but not an icloud acct?
You will have to sign in to I cloud on any of the iOS device with version 5 or above once with your Apple Id to use your Apple Id as I cloud account. So if you have an iPhone iPad or iPod touch with iOS 5 or later.
On your iOS device go to settings > I cloud and sign in and you should be able to use your Apple Id as an icloud Id. -

I have copied some photos to my I phone through the computer of my friend. I want to delete those photos but not able to do. My friend is not in my country. I tried through another computer but didn't know how to delete it
If they were synced to your phone, they can only be removed by syncing them off with iTunes. Create an empty folder on the computer you normally sync your phone with. Then connect your phone to your computer, open iTunes, click on the name of your phone in iTunes, go to the photos tab and select to sync the empty folder you created earler. Then click Apply at the bottom to sync your phone. This will remove any photos on your phone that were synced to it from a computer.

Hi. I tried using Pinterest tonight and got a message that I have a bot in my network..what is this, and how do I get rid of it? My phone has been running really slow too on Safari (but not on Google Chrome)
Google changed their menu bar. Firefox hasn't used Google for the default homepage since the Firefox 3.6 versions. Firefox 4+ versions use '''about:home'''.<br />

How do I transfer ALL my photos from iphone to photo stream? I have just turned on my photo stream on my PC and it only copied some photos and not all of them.
Photo Stream will only transfer photos taken in the last thirty days.
Connect your iPhone to your PC and transfer the photos manually.

I was using my iPhone got a text opened in and all my contact names had gone went into my contact and it had deleted them all . I turned my phone on and off and 100 came back but not most off them what do I do ?
I suggest you immediately make a backup of your data. You don't know if or when the computer will show some symptoms from the drop. You may want to, for piece of mind, take the computer to an authorised service center for assessment. No one here can assess any internal damage you may have done.
