Cannot find the iCloud app on iMac Computer, how do I obtain it

Ho do I install  iCloud on my  I Mac

Please always post your operating system when you have a question: it can make a considerable difference to the answer. If you do not have an iCloud icon in System Preferences then you are presumably running an old system.
The minimum requirement for iCloud is Lion 10.7.5 (Mavericks preferred): the iCloud Preference Pane does not appear on earlier systems - the MobileMe pane appears on Lion and earlier but is now non-functional - you cannot now open or access a MobileMe account.
To make use of iCloud you will have to upgrade your Mac to Lion, Mountain Lion or Yosemite, provided it meets the requirements.
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
Lion is available in the Online Apple Store ($19.99). Mountain Lion (10.8.x) is also available there at the same price (though it's reported to have been removed from sale in some countries so may well cease to be available generally) but there seems little point as the system requirements are the same for Yosemite (10.10.x) - which is free - unless you need to run specific software which will run on Mountain Lion only.
The requirements for Mountain Lion and Yosemite are:
OS X v10.6.8 or later
2GB of memory
8GB of available space
  and the supported models are:
iMac (Mid 2007 or newer)
MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)
MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)
Xserve (Early 2009)
MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)
Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer)
Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)
It is available from the Mac App Store (in Applications).
  You should be aware that PPC programs (such as AppleWorks) will not run on Lion or above; and some other applications may not be compatible - there is a useful compatibility checklist at http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
  If you are running Leopard on an Intel Mac you will have to upgrade to Snow Leopard to access the Mac App Store - it's available in the online Apple Store. However if you have a PPC Mac you cannot run Snow Leopard and cannot proceed further.

    I have installed Adobe Creative Cloud for teams CC Packages which says that Acrobat XI Pro is installed. Your support page says it does not install Acrobat and I have to look in the Extensions folder for an MSI file.  I have run a number of searches and  cannot find the Acrobat extension folder please advise how can I get these applications to load onto my computer?
    Also I now administer the teams and have accepted the invitation to I received to be a team member and download the apps.  The admin page shows that I have been sent an invitation but does not show my account as "ACtive" unlike my other team members.  I tried to use the link in the invite to accept it become active but the link displayed an error saying I had already accepted the invite... why is no account not active?
    Finally what other product downloads in Creative Cloud do not actually download as part of the Creative cloud Packager for downloading the apps? e.g. acrobat and what else?

    My apologies Eadeszoo I believe our support agents are unavailable on January 1.

  • I downloaded 200  photos, an event folder was created, I could see all the photos and was in the process of editing them when I got a message that iPhoto unexpectedly quit.  I cannot find the photos anywhere on my computer now.  Is there anything to do?

    I downloaded 200  photos, an event folder was created, I could see all the photos and was in the process of editing them when I got a message that iPhoto unexpectedly quit.  I cannot find the photos anywhere on my computer now.  Is there anything to do?

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

    What version of OS X do you have? Messages requires 10.8. Previously it was iChat (but does not have iMessage capability to send texts to an iOS device).

  • I installed the trial of Media Encoder CC but cannot find the imx30 preset. Where and how can i find and install this feature.

    I installed the trial of Media Encoder CC but cannot find the imx30 preset. Where and how can i find and install this feature.

    In the case of the trial mode, the license to MXF OP1a format as well as MPEG2 format are not activated if you install only Media Encoder only.  If this is the case, in order to activate those formats in the trial mode, please also install Premiere Pro, After Effects or Prelude and launch it at least once.  After this, re-launching Media Encoder should make MXF OP1a format available.

  • I have a PowerPC G4. Firefox 5 for Yahoo says that I meet the requirements. But I cannot open the Firefox.app on my computer. Why not? Thanks

    I was able to download Firefox 5. When I transferred it to my applications folder, it states that I cannot open, because my architecture doesn't support it. Why doesn't it state that when I looked up the minimum requirements? According to that, I should be able to use it.

    Beginning with Firefox 4, Macs must have an Intel x86 processor; your system is a PPC Mac.
    *System Requirements: [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/4.0/system-requirements/index.html Firefox 4], [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/5.0/system-requirements/index.html Firefox 5], [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/6.0/system-requirements/index.html Firefox 6], [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/7.0/system-requirements/index.html Firefox 7]
    The good news is that Firefox 3.6.23 still supports the PPC Mac architecture. The bad news is that support for the Firefox 3.6.x series is likely to end in the first quarter of 2012.

    You can try the third-party product '''''TenFourFox''''' that supports PPC Macs. The product is based on Firefox released versions. All support is provided by the developer, not by this site:

  • I cannot find the Mac HD in my computer.

    Hi!!! My name is Beatriz and I have been trying to update some of my mac's software and I haven't been able to do it due to the lack of a hard drive image during the installation process. After all this happened, I searched for some solutions by myself, i tried to run "disk utility" but it just crashes down everytime I try to use it. I can never see the hard drive image whenever I use the "startup disk" utility. I really don't know what to do because I haven't been able to update my software since March.
    I really hope you can help me

    Is this issue the same as your post HERE?
    "Hi there! I know probably this will be the dumbest question but I really don't know what to do. My sister's mac is unable to update the software, so I cannot update itunes nor any other software. I really think that I should reinstall de whole software so that it can work properly once again. Do you recommend it??? How can I do it?? Sorry about it, but actually I need something like "Mac for dummies"."
    Exactly which Mac model are you trying to upgrade?
    What size is the Hard Drive, and how much space is available?
    How much RAM is installed, and is it original or added?
    Exactly what are you trying to update? The OS or applications?
    Which of these; Repair Disk or Repair Permissions, crash when you run Disk Utility?
    Other than not being able to update, is the Mac functioning properly?

  • Have downloaded the creative cloud app but cannot find the single-app Premiere Pro CC

    After recieving confirmation email of payment for single- app membership Premiere Pro , followed instructions for getting started and now have downloaded the creative cloud app and when I come to download Premiere Pro it is not shown in the apps section.  What might be the problem for it not showing up ?

    Well, you're not gonna like it, but it doesn't show up because your system doesn't meet the requirements. Check them.
