Can't see my mac in Find My Mac, even with it enabled.

I have a C2D Macbook Pro, Late 2006 Model. I have successfully upgraded to the newest version of leopard, and have enabled all the settings of iCloud with no error messages. Problem is, when i go to look at my iCloud account in a browser and look for my Mac to appear, nothing shows up. There is no listing whatsoever for my Mac.
This is also the case when i search for it via the Find my iPhone app on my phone. I can see my iPhone on the map, but again there is no listing for my mac.
Anybody have any suggestions?

No luck. I unlock the Security & Privacy section, move to the Privacy tab, and click to enable location services. Then I leave that section (with or without locking things down, and re-enter Security & Privacy. Presto! Location Services are unchecked.
This is frustrating. I can't enable "Find my Mac" in iCloud...which is problematic when on vacation (where I don't have control of physical security.
Early 2011 MBP. Do they have a GPS location capacity?

  • Can't see USB disk attached to other mac

    I have an Airport Express, on the network is a Mac Mini which has an USB disk attached to it (to the Mac Mini).
    However, I can't see the disk from any other mac that uses the Airport (this used to work)
    I've looked for "disk sharing" in Preferences and in the Airport Setup Utility, but couldn't find anything.
    I've also made the Sharing & Permissions of the USB disk for "Me" and "Everyone" as " Read & Write"
    Any idea how I can resolve this issue?
    Thanks,
    Awfers

    Ok, thanks for clarifying. You don't need to change any settings within the AirPort Utility, but let's double-check your Mac Mini's settings to make sure that it is both sharing the disk properly and that it's OS X firewall is not blocking the requests.
    For File Sharing: System Preferences > Sharing > File Sharing
    o Make sure that the folders on your external hard drive, that you want shared, are selected in the Shared Folders window.
    o Make sure that you have, at least, Everyone = Read Only set in the Users window.
    o Select Options..., and then, verify that you have "Share files and folders using AFP" is enabled for Mac clients, and "Share files and folders using SMB" is enabled for Windows clients.
    For the OS X Firewall: System Preferences > Security > Firewall
    o If "Allow all incoming connections" is enabled, verify that: "File Sharing (AFP, SMB)" is now displayed in the list.

  • I can't see .NEF files in finder from mi NIkon D7100. Helllp !!!!!

    I can't see .NEF files in finder from mi NIkon D7100. Helllp !!!!!
    I can open NEF files in Camera Raw but Im not seeing tumbs in finder !
    Also I cant see them in preview too.

    Well, I don't know what the problem actually is in the first place, it should work as is, I think something is messed up with the present driver and replacing it would perhaps get around that problem.
    It seems like I'd be adding one more layer of complexity to the Vista machine...
    Not sure how the Vista machine is involved in this, since these are drivers for the Mac.
    Though to involve the Vista Machine, One option not mentioned yet is MacDrive for you PCs... allows them to Read/Write HFS+...

    Hi, Abril_Perez17.
    This may be related to a new feature embedded in iOS7 that shows all purchased music by default.  Go to Settings > Music, then turn off Show All Music.  See if the issue ceases once the feature has been disabled.  This information is located on page 63 of the user guide below.

    Apple provides repeat downloads as a convenience, not a substitute for your computers being the primary source of file transfers.  All your iTunes information such as playlists, ratings, etc. are in a file on your computer, not in the Apple Store.  Typically when you move computers you copy the whole iTunes folder and everything it contains to the new computer.  Moving media files can be done with a drive, or by Home Sharing.  You can also redownload media but let's say somebody desiced Apple may no longer sell a certain album; it cannot be downloaded again but if you already have it on a computer you can move your copy of the file.
    5 authorizations:  Some households have multiple computers.  If you want ot use one with an account it has to be authroized.  It means you can use any computer in the house to make purchaes, etc.

  • Greetings, I am working in Final Cut Pro 7. In the timeline some clips show as offline. I tried going to sequence and reconnecting to media but it does not work. I can still see the video in the timeline and work with it. It just has the red box.

    If the clips are not actually missing, you could try to refresh the timeline by using cmd-0 and then going to the timeline options tab. Then select name only where it says "thumbnail display". Press ok to accept the change, then repeat the process to add thumbnails back to your timeline.

  • How can I see the windows 8 contacts in outlook 2013 with groups preserved

    I an see my windows 8 contacts.
    they are all nice and some are broken down into groups.
    (I double clicked an old .wab and they imported nicely into windows 8, preserving groups)
    now how can I see this same structure as an email lists with groups in outlook 2013?  I see the emails, but no groups.
    can you help?
    thanks

    Those groups are not supported in outlook - outlook uses a different format for groups. You'll need to import the individual contacts into Outlook and recreate the groups.
