An iCloud idea (Wifi settings stored in iCloud)

Hi Everyone and Apple.
I'm the happy new owner of an iPad. Wonderful device by the way.
One idea:
I have to ask every business relation I visit for access to their WiFi ones again.
All the SSID og Passphrase is already stored in OSX on my MBP.
Couldn't you place these Wifi Setting in iCloud. This way all my apple devices would have access everywhere.
This could also work wonders for my iPhone cellular data consumption.
Hope you can use this inspiration.
Best regards

Welcome to the Apple Community.
iCloud only comes with OSX 10.7.2 or later, you need to upgrade your OS. Go to the Mac App Store and try downloading OSX Mavericks. The store will only let you download it if your computer meets the required specifications.

"If you turn off iCloud Drive, all documents stored on iCloud will be deleted from this Mac.

My wife changed her iCloud password on her iPhone, and when she went to her iMac she changed her iCloud password there to match the iPhone. Then she got the following message:
"if you turn off iCloud Drive, all documents stored on iCloud will be deleted from this Mac. This appears under her iCloud account. She has Yosemite on her iMac.
So she's stuck. Any ideas?

The documents remain in iCloud, but are removed from your mac. So if she turns it off, they will be removed. If she turns it back on, the documents would again be available.

Why don't i see icloud in my settings menu?

am tyring to set up my ipad 2 to back up automatically to either my computer or icloud or both. instructions say to select "icloud" in the settings menu but "icloud" is not an option in my settings menu. Neither is it in my itunes menu.

Have you updated your computer's iTunes to 10.5 and your iPad's iOS to version 5 ?

TS1559 I have two problems but since they both started at the same time I'm guessing that they are related. My WiFi on/off button is greyed out AND my iCloud Drive (under "Settings") has been "Upgrading" with that spinning download symbol for 2 wks now! N

I cant be positive but I think this started when my iPhone did an automatic software update. I couldn't get any WiFi connection because when I go to turn it back on the iPhone wont let me and Greys out my WiFi on/off button.
But also I think something happened to my iCloud connect as well because next to my iCloud Drive under "Settings" it has that spinning symbol that usually denotes waiting for something to finish downloading. But this time it never stopped! Its been spinning saying "iCloud is Upgrading" for 2 weeks now! I have tried the on/off iPhone restart or reset, and I've even put my iPhone into "Recovery Mode" as a last resort. but when iTunes was finished "Restoring" it, nothing had changed; Still Greyed out WiFi button and iCloud is still "Upgrading"! Help please!

Hi Ichin,
I am a bit confused with your statement -
if ((p_select_list is not null) and (p_text_field is not null)) then
return true;
elsif ((p_select_list is null) and (p_text_field is null)) then
return true;
else
return false;
end if;Here this statement -
if ((p_select_list is not null) and (p_text_field is not null)) then
return true;returning the result TRUE when both fields are not null
And this statement -
elsif ((p_select_list is null) and (p_text_field is null)) then
return true;returning the result TRUE again when both fields are null. If you see closely basically is not validating becoz it returning true whatever the input is.
I do not know what you want to use the second statement when you have else statement at the end. It will return false if one or both fields are null unless you want to validate either text field.
Hope this make sense.

TS4036 My wife and I have iPhones that backup to iCloud I upgraded my iPhone to iPhone 5 when I see stored from iCloud it restored all of my wife's phone data not mine how do I change it

My wife and I have iPhones that backup to iCloud I upgraded my iPhone to iPhone 5 when I see stored from iCloud it restored all of my wife's phone data not mine how do I change it

You need to restore from your backup and not your wife's. You need to check if your backup is under the same or different apple id. If Id is the same you need to erase phone and find correct backup to restore from. If different you just need to use it at restore time.

My music is stored on iCloud and when I'm playing a playlist, it'll only play the track I choose and won't go on to the next one, it just repeats the one I selected. Any ideas please?

Hi
All my music is stored on iCloud but when I try and play music from a playlist, the iPhone 4 will only play the track I select and won't progress on to the next one. It just keeps repeating the one I selected. Does anyone else have this problem? Many thanks.

If you live in a Region that allows re-downloading Music...
Delete the Song(s) and re-download...

Photos which are stored in iCloud went missing from my iPhone's Photo app

After signing out and signing in to the iCloud account in my iPhone, all the photos which were earlier stored in iCloud, ready to be retrieved with wifi, are now not being shown up in Photos app. The missing photos are visible through iCloud.com's Photos, but not from my iPhone. I tried restarting my phone, resetting all settings, signing out and signing in to my iCloud account, but the problem remains. Please help.

HT203521 In iOS8 I can't turn off shared iCloud calendar alerts. I share iCloud calendars with 3 others and am constantly getting their alarms for upcoming appointments. Settings- Notifications- Calendar- Shared Calendar Changes turns off changes only.

Have had new iPhone 6 for 2 months, using iOS 8. I share iCloud calendars with 3 others and I am getting bombarded with their upcoming appointment alerts. There seems no way to turn this off. I went to Settings->Notifications->INCLUDE(Calendar)->Shared Calendar Changes and turned everything off, but this only blocks alerts about new events or changes to events being added to the calendars, it does not block the 5-minute/10-minute/etc. alarms that go off immediately in advance of the appointment. There used to be a setting in iOS7 in "Mail, Contacts, and Calendars" way at the bottom to turn off alarms from shared calendars, but I don't see that in iOS8. Any ideas?

Finally figured this out when I read jodiemcneill 's post about Google calendars. Thanks!
Reposting the basic idea: to turn off event alerts from shared ICloud calendars, select the Calendar App, then click the "info" (i.e., the circled red 'i') icon next to the shared iCloud calendar to be silenced. Go down to "Notifications" and turn the slider off for "Event Alerts: (Allow events on this calendar to display alerts.)"
For good measure, you can also turn off the slider for "Show Changes" to prevent the calendar from displaying messages when shared events are added/modified/deleted, although this can be done "globally" for all shared iCloud Calendars in Settings->Notifications->Calendar->Invitations (turn off all sliders, click "none" for Alert Style).
This has been a major pain in the ... neck ... for the past 3 months. So glad to start the new year with a suddnely-much-quieter iPhone 6.

I've edited a Pages doc stored on iCloud on my iMac, and for the past hour or so it's been showing as updating on my iPad with the cogwheel going round. How do I stop it?

I've edited a Pages doc (which is stored on iCloud) on my iMac; when I checked on my iPad it just shows that the document is updating with the cog wheel going round and it's been like that now for well over an hour. While that is going on Pages on my iPad is frozen and I can't open the document. When I logged onto my iCloud account I found that the document is updated there. Can someone please explain what is going on with my iPad and how I can stop what seems a never ending process.

Hi tomtreb,

iCloud: Troubleshooting Documents in the Cloud
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3991
Unable to update documents
Documents I've updated on my Mac or uploaded from iCloud.com don't appear on my iOS device
If you're using an iWork for iOS app (Pages, Numbers, or Keynote), check the iCloud system requirements and make sure that you're using the latest version of iWork. For third party apps, check the documentation that came with the app, or check with the app developer to make sure the app supports iCloud. App Store application descriptions often indicate whether the app supports iCloud.
Go to Apple () menu > System Preferences on your Mac. Click iCloud and confirm that you're signed in to iCloud and the Documents & Data checkbox is selected.
After opening your iOS app, wait a few minutes for the documents to appear. Your iOS device may not have connected to iCloud since changes were made to the document at iCloud.com or on your other devices.
Try creating a new document on your iOS device, then check again for the documents from iCloud to appear.
Go to Settings > iCloud > Documents & Data and confirm that Use Cellular Data is turned on.
Confirm that you're connected to the Internet by checking for an Edge, 3G, 4G, LTE, or Wi-Fi icon in your device's status bar. Test your connection by opening apple.com in Safari.
Try resetting iCloud Documents & Data service.
Note: Preview and TextEdit documents uploaded to your iCloud Documents Library on your Mac will not be visible on iCloud.com or an iOS device, and iCloud iWork documents saved to iCloud cannot be viewed in Preview or TextEdit.
Cheers,

I cant open files stored in iCloud in iWork

I am using the latest version of iWork on my iMac and I can't open any files that are stored in iCloud any time I try to open a document stored in iCloud in an iWork app I get a dialog box that says 'The file "xxx.pages" couldn't be opened.' It does not mater which iWork application I am trying to use I get a version of that dialog. I can still access these files using the iCloud apps on the web or the iOS apps on my iPhone or iPad.
I was able to access these files at the beginning of January 2014 but sometime this month they stopped opening on the iMac and the latest updates to iWork did not help. I have reported this in feed back to Apple.
Any ideas?

As a work-around:
In the "Pages -> Open ..." dialog, drag the document out of the iCloud, and onto your desktop.
Once I did that, I could open and edit documents that I could not open when stored in the iCloud. After the edits were complete, I could drag the document back to the iCloud and could open/edit it from my iPhone, but again not from the iMac until it was dragged back to the desktop.
This only applies some of my documents. Some simple "test" documents, open fine when they are stored on the iCloud. My more complex documents, containing mathematical symbols and other advanced formatting, need to be dragged to the desktop.
Hope that helps.

How do I find pdf's stored in iCloud Drive with my iOS devices?

I have recently updated OS X to 10.10 and all of my iOS devices to 8.1. And I routinely store Pages, Numbers, Keynote and pdf documents on iCloud Drive.
But I can't figure out how to find a pdf stored on iCloud Drive from an iOS device. It's obvious (in the finder) in Yosemite, but I have no idea with iOS.

You have to access documents in iCloud drive on an iOS device from an iCloud compatible app that can read the document you are trying to open. For PDFs, you can use an app like Documents 5 by Readdle.

Can't select iCloud icon in settings

I can see the iCloud icon in settings on my iPad2 but it won't allow me to select it. Could someone please help me as I've looked at various things like upgrading and restoring but none of them have worked.

When I go to settings>mail the iCloud options are there but it won't allow me to select them. They are shaded text and therefore not accessible. When I set up my iPad I may have passed over setting up iCloud but according to the tutorials I've read it says you can go into settings>iCloud and set up from there but when I try that it doesn't allow me to select iCloud. When I go into iCloud.com it is just a tutorial page that comes up so I'm not really sure what to do. It is probably something really silly and easy but it's really frustrating me. Thanks for your response. Any other ideas? Am I missing something?

HT1414 Some videos that are stored in iCloud remain on my iPad after backup.What can I do to store them in the cloud again?

After watching tv shows that were stored in iCloud, they remain on the iPad device even after backup is performed on iCloud.
This limits my iPad storage. How do I get them back to iCloud as soon as I have finished watching?

Backing up your iPad won't change what is stored on your iPad, and you can't put TV programmes into the cloud - they will only show there whilst the TV company has them for sale in your country's store.
How did you download them onto you iPad e.g. via the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app or syncing, or do you have videos in the cloud showing (Settings > iTunes & App Store > Videos 'on') and tapped on a cloud TV programme in the Videos app ? If the former then you should be able to delete them directly in the Videos app, either via the Edit button on the TV programme selection screen, or by selecting the series and swiping across the episode from right to left. If the latter then do they show in Settings > General > Usage > Videos (under the 'Storage' heading) ? If they do then you should be able to delete them by swiping across them from right to left.

How do I access a document that's stored on iCloud from my iPhone?

I have an excel document stored on iCloud and I'd like to be able to access and edit it from my iPhone. I can not figure out how to do this! If I go to iCloud.com on my iPhone it gives me 3 options 1. set up iCloud on this phone 2. Install Find My iPhone 3. Install Find My Friends. I already have iCloud set up on my iPhone and it's backing up and doing what it's supposed to. If I go to iCloud.com on my Mac I can sign in and see my document. Just can't figure how to see that document and edit it from my phone. Any ideas???

It's a Numbers (excel) document. So, I have to have that app first? When I went to iCloud I could download an already existing .xls page without having to have that app (it was just part of iCloud) - and I don't have Numbers on my iPhone. Is there any way to view and edit what's on my iCloud?
