Can I use icloud with apple tv gen1

Hi,
I'm trying to figure out if i can put my apple tv gen 1 library on the cloud? We have 3 ipads and at least 6 ipods running around this house. It would be nice to put everything on the cloud and clear up some space on my desktop. Also, if I can't upload the apple tv library to the cloud, how do I back it up?
thank you

I don't know of any way to back up your computer to the cloud. You would be far, far better off buying an external hard drive and backing your computer to that if you are not already doing so.
I have each version of the Apple TV, the latest one is for 1080p movies. There is no storage on the latest one and it uses a different iOS than the original. You store your movies on your computer and it streams them to your television. The nice thing is you can use Airplay between your iPads and the newer ATV which will allow you to stream material wirelessy to your TV from your iPad. If you have an iPad 2 or the new iPad you can mirror the output from it to your TV.

How can i update my old 2006 iMac Intel core 2 duo running 10.6.8 to OSX Lion so that I can sync using iCloud with my newer devices? Mountain Lion is not an option for my older model and Lion is no longer available at App store.

Call Apple's online store's telesales agents: 1-800-MY-APPLE (1-800-692-7753) or Customer Service and Sales Support at 1-800-676-2775. For Lion you'll get a redemptions code via e-mail and need to DL from the Mac Apple Store (requires SL 10.6.6+).

Best.

I am using iPhoto '09 Version 8.1.2 but can not use iCloud with it. I've looked for updates in iPhoto and iLife'11 but no luck. Suggestions very welcome.

No you won't necessarily lose your photos when upgrading but it's very very unwise not to back up first. Backing up is like using a seat belt in a car. You can drive without one for years and have no issues, but if you do have a problem the outcome will be a lot worse. So, too, with back ups. And upgrading is one of those times when the risks of a problem are higher.
Most Simple Back Up:
Drag the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to another Disk. This will make a copy on that disk.
Slightly more complex: Use an app that will do incremental back ups. This is a very good way to work. The first time you run the back up the app will make a complete copy of the Library. Thereafter it will update the back up with the changes you have made. That makes subsequent back ups much faster. Many of these apps also have scheduling capabilities: So set it up and it will do the back up automatically.
Example of such apps: Chronosync - but there are many others. Search on MacUpdate or the App Store

How do I back up Contacts on my iPhone 3 I got back in 2008? With MobileMe closing down, is there a way I export my Contacts info to my laptop. Alternately can I use iCloud with an iPhone this old?

Outlook 2003, 2007, or 2010 along with syncing calendar events and notes, or with the address book app used by Windows Mail called Windows Contacts for syncing contacts only.
Before syncing contacts with an empty Windows Contacts address book, enter one contact in Windows Contacts. This will provide a merge prompt with the first sync for this data which you want to select. Syncing direct with Windows Contacts via the iTunes sync process is selected under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.

It can be upgraded, if you want more use out of it.
It just can't be upgraded enough for iCloud.
For example, you can upgrade it to 10.5. But not 10.7.

I have recently begun to use Pages and want to transfer a document between the iPad and my PC. I can transfer to the iPad, but not the other way, and am told I do not have sufficient 'privileges'. What does this mean? Also I can't use iCloud with Pages between the iPad and PC, although I purchased extra storage in order to do this.

If you have a PC, you don't have Pages on it. You can transfer Pages presentations to/from iCloud via http://www.icloud.com , however -- you just won't have an app on your PC to deal with Pages documents. Make sure that you have your iCloud account properly configured on your iPad.

How can i use ipad with apple tv

How can i use ipad with appletv

Assuming both devices are on the same network and that AirPlay is not turned off on the Apple TV, then simply tap on the screen when you are watching content you wish to stream to your Apple TV, then tap the airplay icon that appears in the control bar, choose the Apple TV from the menu that appears.
When displaying the content you wish to mirror on the iPad 2 (or better), iPad Mini, iPhone 4S (or better), double tap the home button (quickly) and swipe the bottom row of apps to the right to reveal the playback controls, tap the AirPlay icon and select your Apple TV from the list of available devices.

Can I use iCloud with Mac OS X - version 10.6.8

I have Mac OS-X version 10.6.8 on my MacPro. Can I use iCloud?

You can purchase Lion from Apple's website. You will be emailed a redemption code where you can download it from the App Store. Alternatively, you can upgrade directly to Mavericks (which is free, availible in App Store) if your system supports it:
OS X Lion (10.7) - Apple Store (U.S.)
OS X Mavericks: System Requirements - Support - Apple

Can I use iCloud with my iPod nano and windows laptop?

not clear how to use iCloud with an iPod Nano and a Win 8.1 PC

iCloud doesn't work with the iPod nano directly, and will only work on a PC with an already-existing iCloud account; these need to be created from a Mac or an iOS device.

Can i use iCloud with one apple id but app store with another; especially on iOS 6?

My household has multiple devices. I own iPhone and iPod, both on iOS 5.1.1, and iCloud (used for apps, iMessage, and backup.)
I almost never buy music, but I buy some apps.
My SO has iPhone (also on 5.1.1), and she uses my apple id for purchases (mostly kid apps.) She does not (yet) use iCloud (paranoid about it
She uses iMessage (with her own apple id.)
Anyway, I suppose at some point she would switch to iCloud too. It is also likely that we would move to iOS 6 once it is released (me first, likely.)
I know that Apple does not allow transferring app ownership from one account to another, as well as splitting or merging accounts.
Question: would she be able to use her own ID for iCloud (photo stream, backups) but my ID for app purchases? (I like it, let me control app expenses.)
If any of you are using IOS 6 preview, can you try this scenario (different IDs for app store, backups, and iMessage.)
Unsure if iOS 6 feature set is already public - if not, let me know 5.1.1 situation. Thanks!

thank you, @randers4!
(sorry for using twitter notation - hope you would not mind.)
for other commenters (especially Tawnii) - I view Apple ID (which was before essentially Store ID) as a purse with money. Money is shared in our family; I don't like "get your own milk license, and mark your bottles" approach.
Currently my spouse uses her own ID for iMessage (and she does not use icloud for mail, calendar, reminders, etc - pretty much iMessage and iOS Store are only apps she uses), but we use same set of apps (mostly kid apps) on all of our devices (including iPad, which is used by our little daughter). It does feel a little weird when purchases on one device appear on another (but this is an option which can be turned off.) We almost never buy music or books from iTunes store.
iCloud backup for my devices uses my ID (which is same ID we use for Store.) My spouse does not use iCloud backup. I suppose Mountain Lion can give her incentive to use shared Photo stream, and perhaps bookmarks.
Just so you guys know, we live in a country which did not have App store permitted until recently, so it was not possible for my SO to obtain her own ID for purhasing apps, even if she wanted (my ID is U.S.-based, where I used to live before.)
I feel that Apple model works fine for individuals but does not work well for family environments - for example, I want to listen to music from both of our computers on our Apple TV, but it is not easy: I can share iTunes collection or iTunes Match music set to Apple TV, but only from one account.
And I also suppose our two-year old would not be able to use her own account, even though she is iOS user for about a year already (iPads work great for kids, we tried 50+ different apps and have our own set.)
Again, thank everybody for quick responces, this is my first time using Apple forums and I am very happy

Can I use icloud with my ipod touch ?

It's a 2nd gen, 8GB, version 4.2.1. I'm not even able to follow steps for setting up icloud because when I go to settings and software updates, there is not even a software update category.

Thanx Winston. I understand what the "cloud" is and is not but I just received an ad about "iCloud Everywhere" via iTunes while shopping and I see it on Apple's website too. Through " iCloud Everywhere" you can upload music and thus "make it available on all your devices", according to Apple. Media can then be either streamed to all your devices through the cloud or you can download. They mention for example that you can download a movie if you know you'll be in a place where wifi is not available. They also point out that you can save songs that you didn't buy via iTunes Store and later stream through all your devices. Ergo my question. If I have an iTunes account and buy the iCloud Everywhere subscription I should be able to upload to my Everywhere files regardless of computer registration. Correct? There are programs outside Apple that claim to be able to merge differently registered Apple devices and they want the same amount of money as iCloud Everywhere. I would rather stay with Apple if that's possible. After all it's not fair to lose your media just because your computer crashes or is replaced. I know I raise several issues here so if you can help on the iCloud Everywhere question I'd appreciate any help.
