Am I supposed to use iCloud to check my mail now?

Am I supposed to use https://www.icloud.com to check my e-mail, both on my iMac and my iPhone? I am confused. Apple usually makes things so easy to do, and this is one of the most complicated installs I have ever done. This makes installing updates to Windows 3.5 EASY!!

You check your mail in your mail application, just as you have always done, iCloud is just somewhere else you can check it if you aren't at your own computer and don't have your phone with you.

Install ClamXav and run a scan with that. It should pick up any trojans.

Why am I not able to use iCloud Drive with the Mail app?

I have an iPad Air and recently updated to the latest iOS currently version 8.0.2. I understand that Apple just opened up iCloud Drive to be able to access your documents or anything within your iCloud account. I like the feature of being able to access docs from Pages, Keynote, and other apps. However, it's unfortunate that I simply cannot access my iCloud Drive from the Mail app. Is there a step that I'm missing to access my documents via iCloud Drive within the Mail app? Any feedback would be much appreciated.. Thanks in advance!

Full functionality for iCloud Drive will not be available until Yosemite is released.

TS4083 Using iCloud I deleted e-mail on my iPhone but it did not delete from iPad. What settings do I need to fix this?

Thanks.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Is the calendar you are adding events to on the phone an iCloud calendar.

HT4436 Can I use icloud just on my PC without setting up the phone?

My phone is having issues and I just need to use icloud to check and share calendars. Can I set up an account without setting up a phone?

No.

I just upgraded to iOS7 and started using icloud with Outlook 2010. My calendar reminders are only randomly showing up which is very frustrating. They show up on my phone however. Any suggestions on a fix?

I just upgraded to iOS7 and started using icloud with Outlook 2010. I dealt with switching over to only using icloud for my calendar, but now my calendar reminders are only randomly popping up which is very frustrating. They show up on my phone however. And under my calendar on my main page it doesn't show any appointments coming up. Any suggestions on a fix?

Hey Csound1,
Looks like we found a solution, it's Mickey Mouse but it works. After talking to two Apple Senior Advisors, this is the fix they came up with:
The first advisor after exploring it for awhile, came to the conclusion the way to get my calendars back local On my Mac with the alerts as I had then was to import the saved .ics files with my my 'dangerous email alerts' being removed then me manually re-adding them. I said that was a no go.
The second advisor, after speaking with me for awhile and trying a few things that we'd tried before said he'd do some work on his end and call me back. A couple of hours later he phoned back with a fix that I guess will have to do, his solution:
I had to go into Calendar-preferencs-accounts and create a Gmail calendar, quit and restart Calendar, I created a calendar in the gMail account. Then I was given the option in Calendar under File-New Calendar to create On my Mac local calendars. Next was to create local calendars with the same names as my iCloud calendars. Now I had to un-check all calendars but one, put Calendar in month view, command-click all the events for the given calendar and drag them to the new local calendar of the same name. I then had to repeat this for each of the calendars and for all 12 months of the year.
I'm not done yet but it seems to be working. As I said Mickey Mouse but doing the job. It seems creating another online calendar account was the only way to get the local On my Mac option, active again. What a pain in the a** this has been, I will repeat it again
iCloud is EVIL.

PLEASE HELP! I transfer one of my garageband songs to another ipad using icloud. I see the song shouw up under "My Songs" with a grenn down arrow at the top right hand corner. When I click the green arrow they song becomes greyed out and wont do anything.

Is the song just taking an extremely long time to download or have I done something wrong?? I have searched everywhere for an answer and cant seem to find it.

Hi
I have the same problem too with two songs which are in the same state. Mine happened when I was uploading to iCloud and GarageBand crashed during the upload.
It's really annoying as these songs were from live instruments plugged into my iPad and I was using iCloud as a backup but now it's lost the entire song.
I've tried turning off iCloud and getting duplicates of iCloud songs copied to my iPad and then enabling iCloud again and that didn't fix it.
I'm currently downloading the latest patch release of GarageBand to see whether installing that version (which apparently fixes the problem in the first place) will help my songs magically reappear.
Feel I have nothing to lose as I can't get to the songs ........

Photos will not open, stuck on "Use iCloud Photo Library Page"

I have had my photos app running for three days now and it still hasn't created a library. It is stuck on the Second screen after initializing the app for the first time which gives you the choice between use iCloud photo Library and not now. When I try to quit the app a dialog box pops up saying "Photos is creating or opening a library - cannot quit while it creating or opening a library"
Can Photos be re-installed?
Bit of background, I have a 3th fusion drive iMac from late 2013 and I am a photographer with about 1tb of photos on the local drive, is it overwhelming Photos?
Thanks

Hi VtBoomer,
Lets see if we can clear this up. When you turn on iCloud Photo Library beta, you are essentially switching from a collection of photos that is stored on your iPhone and moving the photos to iCloud. It does actually use iCloud storage when you do this. What this accomplishes is if you have multiple devices, then they will be in sync across all other iOS and your computer. Take a look at the FAQs page below to answer any other questions you may have.

Within this commonfiles\apple folder, there is only one folder, labeled "Internet Services." Within this folder, there are 6 folders, labeled:
APLZOD.resources
BookmarkDAV_client.resources
CoreDAV.resources
iCloud.resources
iCloudServices.resources
ShellStreams.resources
Within all but CoreDAV and BookmarkDAV_client, there are multiple different folders, all labeled starting with a two letter (acronym I believe, for different languages) then .lproj (for example, a folder is labeled "ar.lproj".
In each of the folders of APLZOD.resources, there is a file labeled "APLZODlocalized.dll."
In all of the folders containing the multiple .lproj folders, there are likewise "name"localized.dll files contained.
In the BookmarkDAV_client and Core DAV folders, they each contain only one file, "Info.plist"
I attempted to delete all of these files, and still, the FileAssassin could not delete them. I unlocked one of them for instance, and I tried to delete the file myself (thru windows explorer and just clicking delete), and I still had the same issue of coming eventually to the window requesting me to "try again" to have permission.
What can I do?? I'd like to avoid Unlocker, but if it really is a reliable and SAFE program, and someone knows a SAFE place to download it from, I'd appreciate it very much so!!
thanks!!

TS3988 My icloud account is not verifying it says check my mail witch I have done and I get a message say your iPhone for has been used to set up and Icloud account but still can not use the icloud can anybody help me.

My icloud account is not verifying it says check my mail witch I have done and I get a message say your iPhone for has been used to set up and Icloud account but still can not use the icloud can anybody help me.

Be sure you are checking the email account that you used to set up the Apple ID you used to create the iCloud account. Also, be sure to check your spam/junk folder as well as your inbox. The email you should receive looks like the image below. When you get it, click the Verify Now link.
If it still isn't there, try going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage your Apple ID, sign in, click on Name, ID and Email addresses on the left, then to the right look for a link to resend the verification email.

How old is your battery? This weird trackpad action was the same thing that happened to me when my 3 year old battery started to swell. As it swelled it pressed up on the trackpad and caused all sorts of almost ghost like mouse pointer movements...many all on it's own. The battery itself still held a charge.
I took the battery out and could barely see where it had swelled. I then ran my MacBook Pro with battery out on the MagSafe adapter. No more ghost mouse pointer movements, resizing, dragging, and clicking.
If you can remove the battery DIY, try what I did.
I installed a new battery and everything is back to normal.

Sign in with username and password every time I want to check emails on my PC using iCloud?

Signing in with username and password every time I want to check emails on my PC using iCloud
Having convinced my parents to get rid of their old AOL account and sign up for iCloud to sync their new iPhone with their old PC running Windows 7, I thought I was on to a winner. All working OK but is there any other way to get into emails besides going on iCloud website and signing in with name and password everytime? Can it be set up as a Mail account directly like on a Mac? Or using Outlook or Entourage? Help! I'm not a PC person!!
ELF

If they have Win 7 or 8, and Outlook 2007 or newer then you can.
Just download the iCloud Control Panel for Windows. Install and select the services you want (Mail Contacts and Calendars will appear in Outlook)

I was trying to connect my ipad and iphone using icloud. After signing in on both devices I clicked merge. I went to check my calendar and all my events were gone. Is there any way I can get my events back?

Check to see if they are on your calendar on icloud.com. If they aren't, all you can do is try to restore to your last backup, although it isn't clear that calendar events are included in the iCloud backup.

Check imessage online (Using iCloud)

Dear All,
Currently Im abroad and I need to check the text messages I might received. My phone provider is Verizon which doesn´t allow me to use Google Voice for missed phones calls and text messages over the internet (before was Sprint which works flawlessly with Google Voice over the internet and wifi).
Does anybody have an idea what to use to keep in touch with the US missed phone calls and text? (other than pay $ 2.50/min)??
I tried to check the text messages using iCloud but doesn't seems like allow you to do that.
Any other ideas will be very appreciatted.
Thanks.

First see in https://appleid.apple.com if her apple ID is linked with her iPhone phone number, if not, modify and save changes, then in her iPhone go to settings -> messages -> and deactivate iMessage and activate it again (the phone number should appear in "Receive At" greyed out). Do the same in settings -> FaceTime. After that reboot your iPhone. Hope that works, it worked for me

How can I check serial number using icloud

how can I check serial number using icloud?

If you are talking about an iPhone and you simply tap on settings/general/about
Both IMEI and Serial numbers are there to see.
You can use the *#06# short code on the phone keyboard to see IMEI as well
Or connect your iphone to iTunes on a PC/Mac
Click on the device in side bar and summary button at top left of browser window
In the top panel you have :-
Name of the device
Capasity
Build Version/Software version - Mouse click on it to change which is displayed
Serial Number/UDID Identifyer - Mouse click on it to change which is displayed
Phone number /IMEI -Mouse click on it to change which is displayed
Its very easy to see both numbers if you actually have the device.

Am I supposed to use iCloud to check my mail now?
