iCloud requires OS X Lion (10.7.2) or higher.  You will need to upgrade to either Lion or Mountain Lion in order to set up iCloud on your Mac.  First check to see if your system meets the system requirements to upgrade.
Lion system requirements 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
Mountain Lion system requirements are shown here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5444.
If you can run Mountain Lion, you can purchase an upgrade from the Mac App Store.  If you can only run Lion, contact the online store in your country and purchase a download code to download it from the Mac App Store.
After upgrading, you will find iCloud in System Preferences>iCloud on your Mac, and can set it up as explained here: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/mac.html.
Before upgrading, you may want to check the compatibility of your existing programs by checking here: http://roaringapps.com/apps:table.

  • Can pages purchased for ipad be installed on imac snow leopard?

    We purchased pages for our new ipad and were told at the store that we can also install this onto our imac once we upgraded to snow leopard, Mac OS X (10.6). Have made the update and now want to find out how to install pages onto it.

    Please come back and let us know what happens when you try it. I'm telling you what I have gathered from the advertising and from what I've read about the two versions, not personal experience. It would be great to hear a first hand account. It's worth upgrading to Snow Leopard in any case.
    Pages for the Mac will cost you about 20USD from the Mac App Store in OSX 10.6.6. You will be allowed to install it on all the compatible Macs you own, just as you will be able to install your iPad copy of Pages on all the iPads you own.

  • HT1386 Hi, I have an old powermac G4 laptop running OS X 10.5.8, can I sync my ipad mini with the version of itunes running on it?

    Can I sync my ipad mini with the itunes I have installed?

    Yes ... with regard to syncing. Actually, you need to be running OS X 10.6.8. This is copied from the iPad Mini tech specs website.
    Apple ID (required for some features)

    Syncing with iTunes on a Mac or PC requires:
    Mac: OS X v10.6.8 or later
    PC: Windows 7; Windows Vista; or Windows XP Home or Professional with Service Pack 2 or later

    Hi cdag144,
    I'm sorry to hear you are having these issues with your iPad. I also apologize, I'm a bit unclear on exactly what you are seeing when you try to sync. If you are unable to sync because your iPad isn't showing up in iTunes at all (you mention it showing up as a device on the computer), you may find the troubleshooting steps outlined in the following article helpful:
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch not recognized in iTunes for Windows - Apple Support

  • TS4268 If you buy an iPad mini in the UAE without FaceTime, and then bring it back to the UK and supply it with a UK carrier sim card will FaceTime download itself and work?

    If you buy an iPad mini in the UAE without FaceTime, and then bring it the UK and supply with a UK carrier sim card will FaceTime download if connected to iTunes?
    Thanks.

    An iPad from the UAE can not have FaceTime installed/activated, even if it is in a different country.

  • HT6012 I had an older version of Mac OS, I upgraded to Snow leopard and then OSx Lion, most of my software has been upgraded except for Imovie.  Now I can't get my projects to upload or share to iDVD or iTunes.  What do I do?

    I had an older version of Mac OS, I upgraded to Snow leopard and then OSx Lion, most of my software has been upgraded except for Imovie.  Now I can't get my projects to upload or share to iDVD or iTunes.   Also to compound the situation everytime I attempt to share to iDVD or iTunes, iMovie quits unexpectedly.    What do I do?

    If you want to sync it to the iPad from that Mac, you need to upgrade it to at least 10.5.8.
    If you want to copy the music to another Mac, you don't. Move the iTunes folder of the item in the Finder's sidebar over as you would any other folder. If you put it somewhere other than the Music folder, launch iTunes with the Option key held down and point it to that location.

  • I upgraded my Mac from OSX 10.5.8 to Snow Leopard and then to Mountain Lion 10.8.2.  I did have Microsoft Office for Mac 2004 in my applications and now get a message "can't open Office because Power PC applications are no longer supported."

    I just upgraded my MAC from OSX 10.5.8 to Snow Leopard and then to Mountain Lion 10.8.2.  When I try to access my Microsoft Office for MAC (2004 edition) files I am getting a message "can't open Office because Power PC applications are no longer supported.  How can I access all of my save Word documents?  I just want to be able to retrieve all of my documents that were in Microsoft Office for Mac (2004).  If I purchase the newest version of MS office for Mac from Apple will I be able to retrieve my old documents?

    Use any number of free alternatives to your nearly decade old version of MS Office.
    Consider
    LibreOffice (donation-supported)
    NeoOffice (free)
    OpenOffice (free)
    In addition to the above I also recommend Apple's Pages ($19.99). I use OpenOffice and Pages and have been completely Microsoft - free for years. Life is better without Microsoft.

  • HELP!! i have a ton of videos of my boys stored in iPhoto..They played fine on my old OSX system (leopard).  However, I just upgraded to snow leopard and then to mountain lion and now i can't open my videos at all anymore.  HELP!!

    HELP!! i have a ton of videos of my boys stored in iPhoto..They played fine on my old OSX system (leopard).  However, I just upgraded to snow leopard and then to mountain lion and now i can't open my videos at all anymore.  HELP!!

    Can you tell us about one or more of the video files - what are they?  QuickTime?  MP4?  Something else?  How did you create the video files in the first place?
    I do a lot of video and when I upgraded to Snow Leopard I discovered that many of the QT videos that I had created previously (via iMovie & Final Cut) would not play correctly in QuickTime X - the bizarre behavior was that QT X acted as if my video files were only audio files!  I reported this to Apple at the time but never heard anything back, and there hasn't been any change in later updates to QT X.
    The solution was to (re)install QuickTime 7.  But first look in your Applications > Utilities folder.  When you upgrade from Leopard to Snow Leopard, the installer normally moves the old QT 7 program to your Utilities folder.  If it's there, try using QT 7 to play one of your video files.    If QT 7 is not there, you can download and install it from here  Make sure you are running at least OS X 10.6.3 before you install QT 7.  It's even better if you make sure you are running 10.6.8 which was the last release of Snow Leopard.

  • I want to upgrade leopard os 10.5.8 to snow leopard and then maybe to lion. Where can I buy a sow leopard disk?

    Help,
    I have a MacBook Pro and would like to upgrade the OS.
    My system is 2-3 years old and came with Leopard -
    It is up to date with Version 10.5.8 and has a 2.5 GHZ Intel Core 2 duo processor
    I have 4GB  667MHZ DDR2 SDRAM memory.
    I want to update to Snow Leopard and then maybe Lion.....
    It appears my systems is to old to update online. So where can I buy a Snow Leopard disk/s. My local Best Buy does not carry the disk update anymore. Where can I get the disk?
    Not to happy with my MAC right now ............. It seems to be poorly supported by APPLE.  Am I missing something   ?
    Jimmy

    You apparently missed my response.
    It can also be found by entering "Store" under the Apple home page, and typing "snow leopard" in the search window.

    Hi there Chrisey01,
    You may find the Increase Contrast, Bold and Large Text, and Reduce Transparency options in iOS helpful for making the text more legible. Take a look at the User Guide page below for more options. Note: Reduce Transparency is found with the Increase Contrast setting.

  • How can I sync "On My Mac" iCal calendars on Snow Leopard with iPhone and Google Calendar?

    Hi,
    (I've done a lot of searching for a clear answer but without success.)
    Can someone please advise how I can get the "On My Mac" calendars on iCal v4.0.4 (running under Snow Leopard 10.6.8) to sync with an iPhone and Google Calendars,  'over the air' (i.e. not via iTunes) and both ways (two-way syncing).
    There was a great bit of software called Spanning Sync which did it all but it's now discontinued. I'm running Snow Leopard and do NOT want to upgrade to OS Lion.
    I've tried the iCloud route but it just creates an extra set of "@me.com" calendars under the "On My Mac" calendars - it is not syncing the "On My Mac" calendars themselves (and I want to use the "On My MAc" calendars as the master dataset (the 'Truth database' to use an Apple term!).
    ... And the same happens when I try to sync my Google Calendars: another set of "@google.com" calendars appear.
    Now instead of 2 calendars in iCal I have 6: 2 On My Mac calendars, 2 iCloud ones, and 2 Google ones. (This is not progress Apple!)
    Hope someone can advise.
    Many thanks.

    Thanks Winston.  I'm aware that the 'on my mac' calendar doesn't get picked up by iCloud.  I'm wondering whether anyone can help with the best alternative solution for synchronisation of phone and Outlook.

  • ITunes Help! I can't sync my Ipad Mini Retina to iTunes, it doesn't even come up on the 'choose devices' screen

    I can't work out how to sync my New 'Mini iPad Retina'. I am using the USB cable to attach it to my iPad and the other end into my laptop, i have signed in to iTunes, and i choose 'Devices' But it wont pop up anywhere, even waiting for 10 minutes. I also check when i plug the USB cable into my laptop, in -'Computer'
    --> 'Devices' . It's not there either. Someone help please!!!!

    Any one or a combo may help.
    Give your mini a reset. Hold down the sleep and home keys for about 20 seconds. When you see the silver apple, let go and let it reboot. Then try again.
    Try a different USB port
    Try a different cable
    Is your iTUnes up to date? If not, update it.
    If that doesn't work, (if you're on a PC) go into the control panel, add/remove programs and uninstall iTunes, Apple mobile device service, apple application support. THen redownload and reinstall iTunes and give it another try.

  • Why I can't sync my iPad mini?

    I bought an iPad mini 2 months ago and I activated on the ipad itself, but now when I want to conect it to my iMac, it appears as the ipad was new, I don't want to erase it because I have a lot of data on it and iCloud isn't enough.

    You can follow the steps outlined in this guide: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141 to establish syncing with your iTunes library without losing data.  (This was written for the iPhone, but applies equally to an iPad Mini.)  If you are using iTunes 11, first go to View>Show Sidebar to follow this guide.  Also, Transfer Purchases (step 5) is now in File>Devices.  If you aren't syncing your contacts or calendars with your computer using iTunes, you can skip step 2; just be sure not to enable syncing these on the Info tab of your iTunes sync settings prior to syncing your iPad.

  • How can I sync my iPad mini with itunes version 10.6.5? My mac says it is up to date.

    My iPad mini won't sync up to my iMac as it says I need a different version of iTunes.  when I try to update iTunes it says I am already up to date.  Any suggestions?

    You need iTunes version 10.7 or later. Your OS, however, Mac OS X 10.5.8, does not support a newer version of iTunes. You need to upgrade your computer's OS. If your Mac has an Intel processor, buy Snow Leopard: http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard. It is compatible with the latest version of iTunes.
