Control Panel with Windows 7

When I click the options button on Photo Stream, the following two options come up-
My Photo Stream
Shared Photo Streams
Where did the Upload Option go? It worked before

Windows 7 is compatible with the iCloud control panel for Windows. It supports Vista SP2 and above. You can download it here: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1455. This guide explains how to sync your PC with iCloud: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/pc.html.
However, if you are running iOS 4 on your phone you must first update it as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972. After doing so, you can create your iCloud account by going to Settings>iCloud on your phone and signing in with your Apple ID. Once the account is created, you can then sign into the account on the iCloud control panel for Windows.

Problem with Office 2007 whenever I install the iCloud Control Panel for Windows

Sadly I have a Win7 laptop as my work hack and am using Office 2007. Outside of work I use iCloud to sync calenders between various iOS/OS X devices however whenever I install the iCloud Control Panel for Windows Plugin my email no longer loads. Outlook starts fine and just sits there with an empty inbox waiting for mail to load. I can't even open the iCloud Panel from within Control Panel either to set preferences!
Unistalling the iCloud plug-in resolves this but I really want to sync my iCloud calender with Outlook and can't see any other way to do it, plus it worked before and then just stopped.
Any assistance would be appreciated.

I tired everything that was suggested in the forum. Tried IE and firefox to no avail. When I tried computers in stores both worked. A friend of mine who has the 32 bit setup got it to work. Several folks have stated it is the compatability issue with 64 bit. As a last resort, I loaded safari on my home computer, and yep, it works. Go figure, apple product.

How to change a setting in the Java Control Panel with command line

Hi,
I am trying to figure out how to change a setting in the Java Control Panel with command line or with a script. I want to enable "Use SSL 2.0 compatible ClientHello format"
I can't seem to find any documentation on how to change settings in the Java Control Panel via the command line
Edited by: 897133 on Nov 14, 2011 7:15 AM

OK figured it out. This is for the next person seeking the same solution.
When you click on the Java Control Panel (found in the Control panel) in any version of Windows, it first looks for a System Wide Java Configuration (found here: C:\Windows\Sun\Java\Deployment). At this point you must be wondering why you don't have this folder (C:\Windows\Sun\Java\Deployment) or why its empty. Well, for an enterprise environment, you have to create it and place something in it - it doesn't exist by default. So you'll need a script (I used Autoit) to create the directory structure and place the the two files into it. The two files are "deployment.properties" and "deployment.config".
Example: When you click on the Java Control Panel it first checks to see if this directory exists (C:\Windows\Sun\Java\Deployment) and then checks if there is a "deployment.config". If there is one it opens it and reads it. If it doesn't exist, Java creates user settings found here C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\LocalLow\Sun\Java\Deployment on Windows 7.
__deployment.config__
It should look like this inside:
*#deployment.config*
*#Mon Nov 14 13:06:38 AST 2011*
*# The First line below specifies if this config is mandatory which is simple enough*
*# The second line just tells Java where to the properties of your Java Configuration*
*# NOTE: These java settings will be applied to each user file and will overwrite existing ones*
deployment.system.config.mandatory=True
deployment.system.config=file\:C\:/WINDOWS/Sun/Java/Deployment/deployment.properties
If you look in C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\LocalLow\Sun\Java\Deployment on Windows 7 for example you will find "deployment.properties". You can use this as your default example and add your settings to it.
How?
Easy. If you want to add *"Use SSL 2.0 compatible ClientHello format"*
Add this line:
deployment.security.SSLv2Hello=true
Maybe you want to disable Java update (which is a big problem for enterprises)
Add these lines:
deployment.javaws.autodownload=NEVER
deployment.javaws.autodownload.locked=
Below is a basic AutoIt script you could use (It compiles the files into the executable. When you compile the script the two Java files must be in the directory you specify in the FileInstall line, which can be anything you choose. It will also create your directory structure):
#NoTrayIcon
#RequireAdmin
#Region ;**** Directives created by AutoIt3Wrapper_GUI ****
#AutoIt3Wrapper_UseX64=n
#EndRegion ;**** Directives created by AutoIt3Wrapper_GUI ****
Func _JavaConfig()
     $ConfigFile_1 = @TempDir & "\deployment.properties"
     $ConfigFile_2 = @TempDir & "\deployment.config"
     FileInstall ("D:\My Documents\Autoit\Java config\deployment.properties", $ConfigFile_1)
FileInstall ("D:\My Documents\Autoit\Java config\deployment.config", $ConfigFile_2)
     FileCopy($ConfigFile_1, @WindowsDir & "\Sun\Java\Deployment\", 9)
     FileCopy($ConfigFile_2, @WindowsDir & "\Sun\Java\Deployment\", 9)
     Sleep(10000)
     FileDelete(@TempDir & "\deployment.properties")
     FileDelete(@TempDir & "\deployment.config")
EndFunc
_JavaConfig()
Now if you have SCUP and have setup Self Cert for your organization, you just need to create a SCUP update for JRE.

ICloud 3.0 Control Panel for Windows - Non-IE Bookmark Sync

FYI
The new iCloud Control Panel for Windows 3.0 offers bookmark sync with Chrome and Firefox
I could not get the new iCloud Control Panel for Windows 3.0 to recognize bookmark sync for any browser except IE. I downloaded the Firefox add-in and enabled it but it would not show Firefox bookmark sync as an option.I tried deleting and reintstalling both the iCloud Control Panel and Firefox.
I finally solved the issue and got it work when I removed the additional profiles for Firefox.
Check your (windows) Firefox profile at:
users/yourusername/app data/roaming/mozilla/profiles
Once I deleted the additional profile and restarted Firefox and the iCloud Control Panel I was able to select Bookmark sync with Firefox or Chrome.
I hope this helps others that could not enable this option.

Hello Todd,
I too have the same problem (I can not display the "Options" button on the control panel, therefore I can not synchronize)
I looked in the profiles of Mozilla Firefox, but unfortunately I have only one profile (default profile)
How do I solve the problem?
Thank you very much
Maurizio

Outlook 2010 and the I Cloud Control Panel for Windows

After setting up the I Cloud Control Panel for Windows on my PC and watching it upload and download all of my Outlook 2010 calendar, I find that I now have 4 calendars: my calendar, an I Cloud calendar, another called Pocket Mirror Archive - I Cloud and yet another called Pocket Mirror Conflict - I Cloud. Also, Outlook is now very, very slow and unresponsive when I do anything and hangs up a lot for a minute or so. Do I need to keep all of these calendars open? And what's with the Pocket Mirror Calendars? And which one should I enter things into?
Then when I checked Contacts from Outlook in the Control Panel, it uploaded and downloaded and then permanently hung up with the wheel turning in the setup process - finally had to use Task Manager to exit the Control Panel.
I haven't yet changed my I phone or my I pad or my Macbook Air over to the cloud, mostly afraid to because when I've tried it previously, it caused all kinds of missing calendar items or duplicates and I had to erase it all and re-do the sync with I Tunes, the old way after restoring my .pst file and restoring my phone from a backup.
Do I dare re-connect my phone and ipad to the cloud now that Outlook is uploaded there?
Or must I just forget the cloud completely and stick to I Tunes?
Can anyone help me out with all of this? I know it's a lot of questions, but I'm at my wit's end.
Thanks in advance.

Why are you running Pocket Mirror, do you have a Palm device?
Uninstall Pocket Mirror, delete the 2 Pocket Mirror calendars, ignore 'My Calendar' the iCloud calendar is the one to use.
If you do not uninstall Pocket Mirror the calendars will keep recreating themselves

HT4759 iCloud Control Panel on Windows XP

Are there any workarounds to be able to download & use the iCloud Control Panel on Windows XP?

here is a simple hack to get iCloud control panel to work on Windows XP to give you synced access to Contacts, Calenders, Reminders and Bookmarks. It also can be used to set up your me.com mail. Photostream doesn't work.
I found a solution here, have written it up in clearer english and added details re IMAP support for me.com addresses here:
http://42i.co/s/1ii
In summary:
You need:
Unpacking program e.g. 7-Zip or WinRar
Orca MSI editor
The iCloud setup hack for Windows XP:
Download iCloud Control Panel for Windows- NOTE: old versions that work are still avaliable in my solution: http://42i.co/s/1ii
Open iCloudSetup.exe file with WinRar or 7-Zip and extract.
Navigate to and open the iCloud.msi or iCloud64.msi (for 64bit systems) with Orca.
In the left table select LaunchCondition. Then change in the right table “VersionNT> = 600” to “VersionNT> = 200” and Save.
Run modified iCloud.msi and install.
Run iCloud Control Panel, located in the Windows Control Panel, and set up as you want.
I've had reports that you need to keep the files extracted from the .exe file in the same directory during installaton of the .msi file.
Have fun!

Where can i find the icoud control panel for windows vista

I need to back up my iphone and cannot find the software for the icloud control panel for windows vista --- only for windows 7 and 8.
Where can I find this as Ineed to back upp my phone before an appointment tomorrow to replace my battery.
Thanks for your help

Here: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1687.
If you're trying to back up your phone to iCloud, you don't do this on your computer. You have to do it using wifi. First go to Settings>iCloud, sign in with your Apple ID to create your account, tap Storage & Backup and turn iCloud Backup on at the bottom. Then, to manually start a backup right away, tap Back Up Now at the bottom. Connect it to your charger as the first backup will take some time to complete. (Subsequent backups will be much faster as they only back up changed files.)
After that, just connect it to wifi and your charger and lock the screen when you go to bed at night. It will automatically back up daily.

Uninstall MobileMe control panel for windows

Hi I saw a post from
turingtest2
Re: MobileMe Services has stopped working in Windows.
Feb 8, 2014 5:58 PM (in response to AKAJEF)
on: MobileMe is a discontinued service and the control panel should be removed if still present. Not doing so could cause Microsoft Outlook to freeze and/or issue error messages. See HT2992: MobileMe: Uninstalling the MobileMe Control Panel for Windowsfor details.
But I cannot fin out how to do this. I have only iTunes installed on my PC and I keep getting bluescreens and errors messages about MobileMe. I want to try to uninstall MobileMe, but cannot find out how to do so. Can you please help me with some instructions?
Thanks
Vickifb

I tried that, and it did not work. When I went to Control Panel, selected MobileMe, and clicked remove, I got a loud error noise and the following error message: "The procedure entry point obj_exception_try_enter could not be located in the dynamic link library objc.dll"
It then gives me an option to look for an answer online. I select that option, but nothing happens.
The link reference in the first post on this thread, HT2992: MobileMe: Uninstalling the MobileMe Control Panel for Windows, does not seem to exist. Clicking it just takes one to the main Apple support page.
This is causing me problems every time I use Outlook! There must be some way to fix this! Please help.

And during the installation i got the option to install like 8 different programs to install for my soundcard including the Control Panel wich i pretty much only care about

Hi dylan1990,
You may want to reinstall the drivers again. From the details section, it did mention that the driver includes Creative Audio Control Panel in Win 8.1.
Hope the suggestion works for you.

ICloud Control Panel for Windows will not install on Win 7 64-bit

I already installed iTunes 10.5 and I downloaded the iCloud Control Panel for Windows and when I tried installing it I got the following error message:
I cannot find a a 64-bit of iCloud (if that is what I need). The 64-bit iTunes installed ok. What am I doing wrong?

I don't know how to answer that question, Rob, or why I would be able to. Obviously people will have different configutrations. It really just points to the question I am asking. I can only assume Adobe hasn't tested it thoroighly enough and is not making any effort to find out why, which suggests to me they don't really care enough about their users to bother. This issue has been raised often enough and nothing has been done.

When I try to use the bootcamp control panel in Windows 7 to reboot into Windows 7, the computer reboots into MacOS

Any ideas how to resolve this problem?

I open the Boot Camp control panel in Windows 7 and select the the Boot Camp Windows disk. Next to the Restart button I see it tells me it will restart in Windows. When I click the button there is a dialog box that asks if I want to restart in Windows. I hit OK and it restarts in MacOS.
Ever since I installed Windows 7 some years back this process has worked incorrectly. I waited, expecting Apple updates to Boot Camp would resolve the problem. Does anyone know a solution?

I installed the latest version of icloud control panel (allegedly Windows 8 compatible) on my Windows 8 laptop. Installation successful, but on clicking on the icloud icon nothing happens. The same software worked on my Windows 7 PC.

Superb detail, thank you.
(1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
(2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
(3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
(4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
(5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?
