Can you use icloud without an apple os device on pc's?

Hi,
I have friend who has a pc and I would like her to be able to subscribe to my ical. When I look at the min requirements for installing the icloud panel it is microsoft windows vista. She installed it, created an apple id, but it tells her that she needs an os device to use icloud. Is this correct? Does she need to have an os device?
And if not, what might be the potential problem? I know that I can send her a url of my calendar but it is read-only. I would like her to have full access to the calendar thru icloud.

what if i have an account already, but i forgot my password and reset it?? it tells me the same message that i should use an IOS device.
and the problem is that i lost my phone so i need to access it from my PC.. what shall i do ?

If you're referring to the iCloud.com website for you account there are no photos there. Photop Stream is only for syncing photos between iOS devices and Macs.

can the apple tv be used if I do not own another apple prouct?

The Apple Tv is a stand alone device. It does not require an iPhone, iPad or other Apple Product.
An Apple Tv is simply plugged into an HD Tv via an HDMi cable, and has a control remote to select the options form its onscreen menu.

On the PowerMac G4 I had it had to be connected, but not sure about the model you have. My guess would be yes due to shielding in the case, but would rather wait and hear from someone else.

Can you use icloud to restore settings on a 4s to a 5?

Can you use icloud to restore settings on a 4s to a 5?

Yes. Just back up your 4S to iCloud, then restore your 5 to that backup. Note: your iPhone 5 will need to be running the same or higher version of iOS as your 4S in order to restore to the backup.

Can you use iCloud if you can't upgrade to Mountain Lion?

Can you use iCloud if you can't upgrade to Mountain Lion? I have a MacBook running Snow Leopard but is not compatible with Mountain Lion.

The requirements for Lion 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
If your Mac complies with that you can buy it by ringing the Online Store at the number given at bottom left of this page.
If it doesn' and you are stuck with 10.6.8 this page explains the situation with Snow Leopard and an existing iCloud account (you can't open one on Snow Leopard):

Can you use iCloud to transfer data from one iPod to another?

Hi, I'm a newbie to Apple. I'm getting another iPod touch with bigger storage, the only data I care about is Clash of Clans. Can I use iCloud to back up the data, and restore it to the iPod I want? Please help, I don't want to lose my data without the right directions.

Yes. Back up your current device to iCloud, the when setting up your new one, restore it to this backup. It will include your apps and app data (as well as other data and settings). See http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2109.

No it wouldn't be possible.
I mean the network makes you communicate with others connect to one internal network. Though you can connect over cellular network.
Cellular network is still a network.

Can I use iCloud like a mass storage device - pc free

I am living on a boat and I am using my iPad w a camera connector kit. Can I back up photos that won't all fit on my iPads internal memory(16G), using iCloud like an external hard drive? I don't have a pc w me and don't want one.

With iCloud and photo stream your photos are automatically syced to the cloud, but the photos will only stay in the cloud for 30 days which is enough time by Apple's standards to download them from the cloud to a mac or pc so I guess the answer to your question would be no, you cant use iCloud as a mass storage 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 you use iCloud to sync contacts and still sync google contacts too

Just switched my contacts over to sync using icloud between my imac, iphone and ipad. Im wondering, can I sync the contacts somehow with google also? Would be great to gave everyting together and have web access to contacts on any computer.

I should've just tried it before I asked this question. Once I disconnected my internet completely, I was able to fully see and use my iCloud Documents, etc... They must be stored elsewhere on the computer instead of somewhere obvious like the Documents folder.
I was able to open, edit, etc... and it appears that once you do connect to the internet that the new edits will sync with what's stored on iCloud, and then become accessible to your other devices.
Of course, I then after doing all this, found a similar question which already had answers. Sorry to clutter up the forums.

Can you use AirPrint without a computer

I found out that there will be no printer in the Paris apartment we will be using, but there is wifi. We will have need of a printer, and would bring one, but don't want to bring our laptops. We just want to use ipads and iphones this trip, but would need to be able to print via airprint to an airprint-enabled printer with no computer involved on any level. Printers that seem to say no computer is needed to print via airprint still include CDs which must be installed on a computer. Theoretically, I guess if you set the printer up here with a computer, the printer could then be used elsewhere without a computer--but there is no way to put a network wifi password into most printers without a computer. Does anyone know of a transportable, relatively inexpensive printer that will truly not require a computer to work with airprint?
Thanks! This has been a continuing problem, as we will be there for a month.

There are other technologies besides Airprint, and many of them require a computer. An airprint printer does not.

Can you use iCloud to sync Bento?

I just need to know if iCloud can be used to sync Bento databases? Also is it possible to sync several Bento databases that are not on the same network?

Hi Roger,
Thanks for your response. Do you know if there is another way to sync several users accounts of Bento? Can you somehow back up one copy onto a hard drive and download new entries onto another computer?
Thanks,
Claire
