Cannot set up iCloud on MacBook Pro to find my iPhone??

I can login to MobileMe but not iCloud. Can't even get to the 'agree to terms' page before a window pops up saying 'iCloud is too busy to let new users log on'.
It also has in red letters unrecognised username and password when both work fine on iTunes etc. Also, I don't have Find my phone on my iPhone which is lost, so can I still locate it?
Any help would be good.
Cheers, Carlo.

Without having turned on Find My Phone in the iPhone settings, you can't track it.

    Yes, you have to have Mac Os X 10.7.2 or better to use the iCloud sync functions with your calendars, etc.

  • I decided to remote lock my Macbook Pro from Find My iPhone. It's been three weeks and still no lock.

    About three weeks ago, I was sitting in class, got bored, and decided that I'd try and see what would happen if I locked my Macbook Pro (17-inch 2.66 GHz on 10.8.2, early 2009) from Find My iPhone. I'm concerned because my Mac has never locked, despite being used daily, on a variety of networks, including buying from iTunes, and using Messages. I've turned off the computer multiple times since, and I really can't think of any other scenarios that I'd have to go through to get the Mac connected to Find My Mac. Is there anything I can do or is this just an oversight by Apple?

    I think this is what you're saying, but I'm not sure:
    You had turned on Find My Mac on your MacBook Pro in System Preferences > iCloud.
    Then (while in class) you did a Find My Mac from your iPhone.  Presumably you did indeed see it pop up on a map there in its correct location.  You then sent a "lock" command which never took effect.  Further, you received an email confirmation that the lock commend actually got sent.
    Is that right?

    how to chek my iphone location in my mac via find my iphone or my mac software

    Log into icloud.com and go to the Find My iPhone page to track your mac.  Your mac must be using wifi to be found (wired to a router doesn't work).

  • So my Psychotic now Ex-Boyfriend locked my Macbook Pro using " Find my iPhone"

    I need to ask how to get my Macbook unlocked. My now Ex-Boyfriend decided since I broke up with him, it was a good idea to Hijack my Macbook Pro and lock it with the 4 digit pin number. I just got to my mothers house and I am now trying to figure out how to unlock it. Should I call Tech Support? Should I call the Apple store? Should I take it to the Apple store? Any suggestions? Is there any way to unlock it right here and now?

    Take it to the Apple store along with proof of ownership and they can unlock it.  If he has access to your iCloud account, you should also change your password as explained here: iCloud: Change your iCloud password.

  • If you set up icloud does that automatically setup find my iphone?

    If icloud is setup on the device, does that automatically setup "find my iphone"?

    Unfortunately not, you need to do it manually yourself.

  • Playing music from iCloud on Macbook Pro without external hard drive

    I have iTunes match set up on my macbook pro. All my music is physically stored on an external hard drive and is perfectly matched to iCloud. So I can stream/download all my music to my iphone and ipad no problem.
    I would have thought as all my music is now in the cloud i should be able to, for example, take my macbook on holiday and not have to bring the hard drive that all the music is on with me.
    This doesn't seem the case - if my hard drive is not attached - it "can't locate" the song.
    Am I missing something really obvious here? Is there an icloud mode I have to switch it too?
    I've tried turning off itunes match (restarting) and logging in again without the hard drive connected but it still seems to be looking for the music locally.
    Any thoughts?
    PS - I have the latest iTunes and am using Mountain Lion

    I have just worked this out.
    Just created a new library by clicking option while opening iTunes. Then just turned on itunes match with this new library.
    Works fine.

  • I plug my iphone 5s into my macbook pro, itunes says: The iPhone "iPhone" cannot be synced. An unknown error occurred (1723).

    Every time I plug my iPhone 5s (32 GB) into my macbook pro, iTunes says: The iPhone "iPhone" cannot be synced. An unknown error occurred (1723). And none of my recently bought songs or my ringtones will transfer to my iPhone. I have iOS 8.1.2. I have only had this iPhone for about a month and a half. A week ago when I plugged it in it would say something along the lines of " This iPhone cannot be synced because the Photo library is not set up. Please try again later." What does that even mean? And now it is saying that it can't sync because of an unknown error. Well, how do I fix this? I have not yet downloaded the Yosemite update because it got horrible reviews and everyone I've talked to said their computer has gotten extra slow because of it so I was wondering if I need to download Yosemite so my iPhone will sync. I have tried turning my computer on and off, quitting and reopening iTunes, restarting my iPhone, and nothing has worked. I would really like to be able to transfer my music and ringtones etc. onto my phone.
    Thanks you!

    You have told us you have iOS 8.1.2, and a non-current version of OS X   Do you also have an old iTunes?  Current is 12.0.1.  I'm quite certain iTunes 12 is required to sync with iOS 8.
    The current iPhoto version is 9.6.  You are probably behind there as well, and that likely caused the first "photo ..." error.  As you may know, iOS is changing its approach to managing photos in iOS 8, so I would imagine it would be important to be current with this application.

  • How do I set up my new Macbook Pro without using the annoying Voiceover?

    How do I set up my new MacBook Pro without using the annoying Voiceover?  I cannot get it to work right; it seems to get stuck and repeats the same thing over and over.  It is driving me nuts!  Is there a way to begin the setup process without using the Voiceover system?  I am a new convert from a PC and I thought a Mac was supposed to be "intuitive!" 
    Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks.
    Pamela

    There is no good reason to register your Mac anyway.
    You can opt out of the setup process and registration by pressing Command (Apple key) and the "Q" key.
    The registration process requires you to divulge a lot of unnecessary information.

  • I cannot open Iphoto on my macbook pro

    I cannot open Iphoto on my macbook pro what do I do?

    That's a bit like saying my car is broken, what do I do?
    There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 10 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
    - History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    - Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
    Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

    How do I set up my new Macbook Pro to associate with my Apple ID so I can download purchased music?
    Under 'Manage Devices' it only lists my iPhone and iMac. I've bought stuff on my new Macbook Pro using my Apple ID, but I can't find music I previously purchased using the iMac.

    Oh, wait, I've found it. Silly me!

  • Cannot Install CS6 on my MacBook Pro.

    I cannot install CS6 on my Macbook Pro.
    It says to re-install but I can't un-install and some components may be missing.
    Error Code: 1
    Please help, in desperate need.

    What Mac? What version of OSX? Exit code 1 basically means that your system is not compatible at all. As a start, run the Creative Suite Cleaner Tool and try again - assuming you are on a supported system.
