Camera Roll to iCloud. How does this work?

I need help with my photos on camera roll. I need to delete them to have more space on my phone to take more. I want to be able to keep the pics in my camera roll though. I have iCloud and a bunch of space on there. How do I know for sure that the pics will be saved on iCloud and not deleted when I delete the camera roll?
Thanks

See if your photos are there. If so, you can delete them from Camera Roll. But remember that photos are not guaranteed to stay in Photo Stream forever.

When I back up my I phone 5s or my ipad2 camera roll, contacts and documents does this save in the cloud all to view even if a photo has been removed from camera roll?

If she wants backups then she will need something like this: Seagate Wireless Plus.

My iPhone was stolen and I have contacted the police who are using the meid number to locate. How does this work and what are my chances of getting the phone back?

My iPhone was stolen. I used Find My iPhone app to lock it and display a message. The phone has not connected to the internet to locate it. I contacted the police and they have taken my meid number. How does this work and what are my chances of getting the phone back? Are there other ways the theif can use it. I was told once they put in a new sim card and use it, whatever software the police have, it will show up.

Honestly? In the US (I can't speak to other countries, though I doubt it works much differently in a lot of the world) The police took your report and filed it either in their computers or, on paper. They will now not think of this again. The only time it will cross anyones mind is if, in the course of entering information into evidence about items recovered or seized at a crime scene, the serial number of an iPhone that was found/seized happens to match yours, in which case you will be contacted.
The police in the US can and will do nothing to 'blok' the phone and it's not worth their time to try and locate it unless you know for a fact that it was stolen by a big time drug lord, master criminal, or some other such prime target and they can get a court order to track the location of the phone in order to locate this individual for your own purposes. If they do that, they'll probably keep him under surveilance for a year or so before they act.
Basically, the police don't care about your phone. If they find it, they will give it back to you. They are not, however, going to go looking for it. They have better things to do.
I'm sorry, but that's the way it is.

Was told a USB device would create a PDF automatically from the data contained within when plugged into my USB port. Doesn't seem to work. How does this work and how can I fix the device I received?

Acrobat is not on the USB device - only Adobe Reader needed on the PC. How does this work? How can I fix this device if at all?

You need to ask the people who sold it to you. Doesn't sound like it has anything to do with Reader.
However, you should be wary of devices that automatically try to open files when plugged in. They can also infect your computers with all kinds of viruses or malware.

Fantastic! Didn't work at first so restarted App store and tried again. This time it asked 'ignore update'. All gone!

You need to transfer the iTunes Library from the most recent backup you made before the hard drive was replaced.
You can't transfer the full iTunes Library from the iPad back to iTunes.
There are third-party Windows applications that will transfer data from an iOS device, but they don't re-create the iTunes Library exactly as it was before.

It should be added either to your iTunes account, or possibly to your credit card if the purchase was made on with it.
How long ago did you get the email ? It may take 48 hours for it to appear - if it's been longer than that and you can't see it on your iTunes balance (and you've tried logging out and back into the account to see if the balance updates) nor on your credit card then try contacting Support again, and include your case number if you have one.

How does this work?

This is not a complaint, but a confused sigh of admiration. I've got an email account at the university where I teach. When I got my iBook, it took me a while, and a few conversations with IT at the school, to get this account working in the Mail application. (Since I have a Verizon DSL at home, I had to include that SMTP as the outgoing server.) Anyway, I synched this mail account (along with my AOL and .Mac accounts) onto the iPhone, and it works perfectly, both incoming and outgoing. I didn't have to change any of the settings. I thought I was computer savvy, but I can't wrap my mind around this. It seems like magic. How does it work?

The sync process with iTunes transfers the email account settings (for your chosen accounts via your iPhone sync preferences) from the Mail application on your Mac to the iPhone's email application.
The iPhone is running OS X and the iPhone's email client can be considered a mobile version of the Mail application.

How does this work with multiple systems backing up with time machine

I was wondering as Apple states that this will do multiple time machine backups as in multiple computers, how does this do this? I am assumng that it will require me to partition the srive in the unit as multiple partitions. 1 for each time computer with time machine running.

I'm sorry, I'm not quite sure how to interpret your answer so I'll ask for clarification.
Do you mean that the backup belonging to each user will be protected by filesystem perms? In other words Alice's backup will be owned by Alice and only readable by her, ditto for the hyperthetical Bill?
I guess in other words, does Time Machine preserve file ownership perms?

The Daily Show Multi-Pass: how does this work?

I subscribed to the Daily Show Multi-Pass. The store said it was busy and try again later. So I thought I'd do it later but meanwhile got an email saying I had the multi-pass and 9.99 has been deducted from my account!
The email has a link to view account preferences. It says that 2 of the 16 episodes have been downloaded - nothing has been downloaded (and only one show is currently available).
According to the email: "You will receive an email when future episodes of The Daily Show are available and the episodes will be downloaded automatically to the account listed above the next time you sign in to iTunes." What? When is that?
It would be great if this worked with RSS like podcasts instead of some mysterious download time.
Is this working for anyone?

Okay here's what you have to do: Go to the Music
Store, and click the button with your e-mail address
at the top right (below "browse"). Then click "Sign
out" in the popup. Then click where your e-mail
address used to be to sign in again. Your episode
will start downloading.
This is a stupid way for Apple to do it, but at least
it technically works so until they make it easier
this is what we're going to have to do every day.
Argh!
Hmmm...when I did the above, it ran through the "Checking for purchases" before starting the download. So I wonder if doing the "Check for purchases..." selection under the Advanced menu would do the same thing without the hassle of logging out and in. I'll give it a try tomorrow...

I have two .mac addresses; how does this work in iCloud?

This is not about consolidating Apple ID's... I think.
When I got my first .mac address, I thought I picked a good one at the time. Later on, due to the peculiar spelling, I opted for an additonal (paid) address which I use every day. Now the first one (which is an Apple ID) contains my calendars, contacts, etc. I never use the email portion of it, again because of challenging spelling. The second .mac address (also an Apple ID) is an email only account. This is the email account I use daily.
When I make the transition to iCloud, I intend to keep my original AppleID (from the pre-.mac days) as my iTunes store ID.
My question is, what happens with my two other accounts?
.mac #1 with the contacts and such would move to iCloud and sync everything there as it currently does with MobileMe. Since .mac #2 is an email only account, would I even need to bother moving it to iCloud (if that's even possible), or would I just keep using that as email only using the current mail settings on my iThingys and Mac? Does anyone know if .mac #2 will live on after MobileMe vanishes, or will I loose my daily and coveted .mac email at that time?
I'm sure Apple has a good reason for not allowing us to just consolidate everything in one place, but I know there are many out there with a similar situation to mine.
I've spent a good deal of time tonight searching the various threads and can't seem to find an answer to the two .mac email dilemma. My appologies if it's already been discussed.
To sum up, I have one Apple ID that I use for iTunes and intend to keep as such. I have two .mac addresses which are also Apple ID's; one that syncs with MobileMe and one that is email only. I would like to use iCloud to sync what is currently on MobileMe, AND continue to use the simpler email address that I've been using for years.
Am I screwed??
Thanks in advance for your help, and Happy Holidays to all!!

Migrate the account which contains your calendars, contacts etc. first, at http://me.com/move and set it up on your Mac and devices.
http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/mac.html
Now migrate the email-only account in the same way. On a Mac you can add it in System Preferences>Mail, Contacts & Calendars - it won't sync anything but will be added to the accounts in Mail where you can then use the email in the normal way.
I don't know what the equivalent process on an iOS device is; very likely you need to add it as an account in the Mail app.

Installing Lion to Sell Computer... How does this work?

I want to sell my computer, but I want to buy Lion and install it... but does it get attributed to my account? How can the new owner have the OS under their name with the digital download?

G'day,
The license agreement that you will read carefully and agree to before installing Lion says that "you are granted a limited, non-transferable, non-exclusive license:"
Thus, when you sell the Mac, you should sell it with the restore disks that came with the machine, and running the OS that is on those disks.
That means doing an erase and install of whatever OS the machine came with. For example, on my 2007 MacBook... that would bust the new owner back to Tiger. Although... I would probably sell it with my retail box of Leopard, which could be the base OS for the new owner.
Cheers,
Rodney

HD installation, how does this work with installing software?

Something I was missing, is an explanation about ho wto get the new harddrive working. Maybe it is really very simple, but;
If you insert a new unformatted harddrive, how can you start up the Mac and insert the CD with the operating system? Surely, if the harddrive isn't formatted, the Mac wn't start up, and if it doesn't start up, surely you cannot insert the CD with the operating software?
Are there any other activities I need to do to install the harddrive? e.g. format it using an external bay, or something like that?
Also, what type of harddrive should I go for? Standard IDE HDD? How about SATA or SATAII, will that work with this iMac (G5, 1.8GHz, 20", non-iSight)?

Yes, you could use it. The owner of a copy under a Single User licence (the norm) can install one copy of the OS on one machine. It is implied therefore that the seller has uninstalled any previous installation. This is the seller's concern not yours.
However I would be wary about buying the latest Mac OS X 10.5 from ebay, when this product is still available new from an AppleStore. The trap could be on ebay that they are selling machine specific disks, known by their grey colour, which are not the Retail versions and most likely will not install on your computer.
In short, if you want a Leopard disk buy it new from Apple and avoid that potential hazard.

EA6500 Sharing Remote Media Files How does this work?

I don't understand how to do this.
I had thought that using the Guest Feature would work but not.
Here is what I want to do. I want to use the Router USB ports for Flash Drives and allow remote users to view that media.
I had thought that allowing someone to remotely access Smart Wifi (myrouter.local) as a guest to view this media would work.
However, guest access only works if the guest can see the router wireless signal. That means they have to be in range of the EA6500 so I don't really see what value guest access has.
So I would have to give them my Smart WIFI login information for router access, not good.
So how do I do this? For example, someone is on vacation, on a cruise, in a cabin on their vacation network accessing the internet.
How do I let them access the USB flash drive on the router?
Can you give guest access to a remote user?
That would be ideal.
Or can you use FTP to allow them to view the USB flash drive on the router. How do you do this?
Can someone supply some clarity to me. I am confused.
Thank you

The guest access feature of the router is well for guests only. The purpose for this is to allow other people to connect to your wireless network but they do not have access to your local network (no access to your computers). This feature is available for wireless connection only and will be in the local network and not for accessing the router remotely.
If you would like other people to access your files or shared media then FTP will be the answer for that. You can set up or create shares that will have permissions like read only or you can setup read and write only.

I share an apple id with my family right now but I just got a MacBook Pro and want my own apple id. I don't want any music,etc to be lost for me or my family. How does this work?

Thanks for any help with my apple id delima.

You can set up an iCloud account which makes the iCloud email address you choose the Apple ID and thus the login for it:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/22283348#22283348
though I have to say I think it's more sensible if the ID is another address, both for security reasons (so people don't know what the login is) and as a contact address from Apple if the account were to stop working and they needed to contact you. So personally I would to to System Preferences, enter the GMail address which is an ID, and then choose a nerw @icloud.com address.
If she has her own iCloud account she will need either her own computer or her own user account on your Mac to be able to make use of it. You should note that under Apple's terms of use Apple IDs are only available to children of 13 and over.
As to purchasing apps, this is nothing to do with iCloud: it's iTunes, and the login can be different. So you can all sign into the same iTunes account but have different iCloud accounts. Or she can have her own iTunes account if she is of suitable age (credit card needed for purchasing apps).
If you have other children you should be aware that any one Mac or device can create only three iCloud accounts - this is tied to the serial number, not the user account, and once reached cannot be bypassed. You can of course sign into an iCloud account created on another device.
