Do I have to use icloud.

Have ipod touch 3rdGen. Primarily use for itunes music . Do I have to use icloud. If not, how do I delete (disable) Mobile Me? It causes issues with my MS Outlook 2007.

Perhaps it didn't fully uninstall. You might try this utility from Microsoft: http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall.

Do I have to use iCloud to use Calendar?

I cannot add entries to my Calendar on my iPhone (the plus is greyed out). I suspect it is because I have not setup an iCloud account. Do I have to use iCloud to use the Calendar? I do not want to use iCloud, I do not want to share my calendar with other devices, I just want to put things on the calendar in my iPhone.

I may try that if I cannot find another way to get this one to work or find another calendar app. I just don't see a reason to link it to anything else when all I want is a standalone calendar.

Got a new lap top my husband wanted to help me by downloading itunes on it I have not used icloud but do have it on my phone When he pugged it in it asked if he wanted to backup he said yes Then reset my phone now all my pictures are gone please help

I got a new lap top and my husband thought it would be a good idea to help me by downloading itunes on it. Well Not so much... I have not used icloud but do have it on my phone and other items. When he pugged my phone in to my laptop it asked if he wanted to backup he said yes. Then it reset my phone and now all my pictures are gone please help

If your phone was backed up to your computer, the backup would contain your camera roll photos (and videos). Restoring to this backup would recover them. However, if it was backed up a second time after losing them, this would overwrite the backup containing the data and your photos would be lost.
You can try restoring to your backup, but before doing so go to iTunes>Preferences>Devices and check "Prevent...from syncing automatically". This will prevent the phone from automatically syncing and backing up when you connect it to your computer, thereby overwriting the backup you want to restore to. After doing this, open iTunes on your computer and connect your phone, then right-click on the name of your phone on the left side of iTunes and choose Restore from Backup. (If you have iTunes 11 first go to View>Show Sidebar.)
Again this might work, as long as the phone was only backed up and then not subsequently backed up again after the photos were lost.

I have been using iCloud since it came out to coordinate my schedules from my phone, ipad and Mac laptop. Last week they stopped synching...I can't upgrade b/c of memory. Could this cause the problem?

I have been using iCloud since it came out to coordinate my schedules from my phone, ipad and Mac laptop. Last week they stopped synching...I can't upgrade past OS 5.1.1. b/c of memory (1st generation iPad and iPhone 4s). Could this cause the problem after the release of the new OS?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
First check that all your settings are correct, that calendar syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
Make sure the calendars you are using are in your 'iCloud' account and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud account (you can do this by clicking/tapping the calendar button in the top left corner of the application ), non iCloud calendars will not sync.
If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your calendars are in the iCloud account, you might try unchecking calendar syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling calendar syncing settings.

I have been using Icloud but want to stop. I connected to itunes but it wants me to set up as a new phone.

I have been using icloud to back up my Iphone 5, but it hasn't backed up in a while because the backup is too big. I want to start syncing to itunes instead but when I connect to itunes it wants me to use a backup that is over a year old or set up as a new phone. If I set up as a new phone will I lose everything that is on my phone now?

Hi denmardel,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
You should be able to back up your iPhone to iTunes using these steps, without syncing or setting it up as new:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
To back up the content on your iOS device, follow these steps:
Make sure your computer has the latest version of iTunes.
Connect your iOS device to your computer.
Choose File > Devices > Back up.
To verify that the backup finished successfully, open iTunes Preferences and select the Devices tab. You'll see the name of the device along with the date and time iTunes created the backup.
Best Regards,
Jeremy

I have been using icloud for itunes and aps purchases, but now I would like to create a new icloud account so that my calendars sync without having to plug in ... how do I do this, as my phone won't let me change the icloud account

My husband and I have been using our iCloud account for music and ap purchases only. I have decided that i would like to now create a new icloud account so that i can sync my calendar and contacts. I read about doing this online and it looks simple and easy ... and yet, when i go to switch it on my iphone, there is only 1 place for an icloud account (our shared account) and it is greyed out so that I cannot change it. How do I do this?

Whenever a menu choice is grayed out, that is because you have Restrictions turned on in Settings. Be sure to turn it off.
You are confusing an itunes store account with an icloud account. You two can continue using the same ID for itunes (thus sharing purchased music, apps, etc.), but you really should have separate accounts (different IDs) for icloud, since an account is intended for one user to keep his/her devices in sync.
To create a new icloud account, go to
http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/
Then go to Settings>icloud and scroll to the bottom of the screen and tap Delete Account. (have restrictions turned off) That will disconnect the device from the account but will not delete data in icloud or other devices. Then sign in using the new ID.

Installed Windows 8.1 and Outlook 2013 - have to use iCloud Outlook Add-in to sync my Iphone 5 with Outlook - reminders work on iPhone, but reminder window & email reminders don't work in Outlook 2013. Help

Using windows 8.1 and outlook 2013 with iCloud Outlook Add-in so that my iPhone 5 will sync with outlook. Now reminders work on iPhone 5, but don't work in outlook 2013. Help, I've tried everything I can think of or found on the internet.

Hi,
Please follow the steps below to make sure the reminders have been enabled in Outlook:
On the File tab, click Options.
Select Advanced in the Outlook Options dialog box.
In the Reminders section, select Show reminders.
Click OK.

As mentioned in the thread, you can try these steps:
Use MFCMAPI to delete the Reminders Folder, then run "outlook.exe /resetfolders" to recreate this folder:

HT5029 Why on Mavericks do I have to use iCloud to sync my calendars in iCal with iPhone?

is there any way to sync calendars and contacts between Mac and iPhone other than iCloud?
before migrating to Mavericks I could sync and keep my calendars and contacts in my Mac only

Of course you could also use another provider for syncing your data between devices e.g. Google. I personally like iCloud the most, because it works seamless, especially if you are using various iOS devices and Macs.

Do I have to use iCloud with new Photos app?

I see that Apple has eliminated iPhoto and is going to require me to update to the new Photos app. When I read what Apple has to say about the update/change I am worried that I have to put my photos on the iCloud... I read quotes like "If you shoot a snapshot, slo-mo, or selfie on your iPhone, it’s automatically added to iCloud Photo Library as well" and "iCloud Photo Library automatically keeps all your photos in the cloud" directly from the Apple website. I absolutely do NOT want my photos on the iCloud. I currently take photos on my phone and upload them onto my Mac when I want to, and I want to continue to do this. So I'm trying hard NOT to update my software until I understand better what the new Photos app will require of me. Any help is appreciated.
Update is OS X 10.10.3, Photos app

I see that Apple has eliminated iPhoto and is going to require me to update to the new Photos app.
For the time being is iPhoto still working very well with the latest release of MacOS X 10.10.3. You can try out the new Photos for Mac app, while you are still keeping your main Photos library in iPhoto.
With MacOS X 10.10.3 you need iPhoto 9.6.1. Apple does not sell iPhoto any longer, so you can neither update it nor purchase it. But you can reinstall, if you already own iPhoto and it is associated with your Apple ID.
See this user Tip:
Get iPhoto 9.6.1 if you didn't update before OS... | Apple Support Communities
The main idea is to move the iPhoto app to the Trash, so Spotlight does not see it as installed, reload the AppStore, and then to try to download again from the App Store - from your Purchases tab, not from the main page, since you can neither buy iPhoto nor update it, but you can reinstall, if your AppleID is associated with it.
You may need to unhide your Purchases, if you do not see iPhoto on the Purchases page when you sign into the AppStore with your AppleID:
See this link: Hide and unhide purchases in the Mac App Store - Apple Support

Do we have to use iCloud?

Is iCloud important to have or does it make it easier to store things on there for extra space?

We live in changing times, and Cloud storage may seem trendy, but it is very beneficial.
iCloud is very secure as long as you have a good password setup with your Apple ID.
I found this out when I lost a iPhone, and the next day with a new iPhone, I restored from iCloud, and it was as though I never lost my phone in the 1st place.
LOOKFACEHELP.

When I open Itunes, i get a dialog box saying 'icloud session is closing'. I have never used iCloud and my library is missing (or i am looking at the iCloud library which should be empty).

How do I know I am on the iCloud, I never signed up for it, and should not be in/on it. How do I get out of the iCloud if I am indeed in/on it.

Hi,
Just several ideas to be checked:
1. Please, verify the prerequisites of Operations Console listed by the following link:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn249696.aspx
2. Install all the SCOM related system updates.
3. Clear SCOM Console cache:
http://systemcenter.no/?p=215
4. Try to clean up Ops Manager cache on SCOM Management server. To do this stop Microsoft Monitoring Agent service, navigate to SCOM installation path (by default, C:\Program Files\Microsoft System Center 2012 R2\Operations Manager\Server) and
delete Health Service State folder. Start Microsoft Monitoring Agent service afterwards.
5. If nothing helps, maybe try to reinstall SCOM Console.

I have been using Pages for a short time (5 documents so far) I just got a new iPad2 and wondered how you get them to appear from my iMac onto my Ipad2 using iCloud?

thanks!

Apple has not updated the desktop versions of the iWork apps to use iCloud. Until they do you have to use iCloud.com in a web browser or iTunes to sync files. You could also try e-mail or DropBox.

When using iCloud Mail with a laptop and smartphone, how do I delete an e-mail from one without deleting it from the other?

I recently have started using iCloud for Mail on both my laptop (MacBookPro, OSX 10.8.5) and my smartphone (iPhone4, iOS7.1.1).
I understand that with iCloud mail is stored in the cloud. Is there a way of erasing a message from either the laptop or the smartphone while leaving it on the other? How?

Hi jeagle7,
iCloud uses a form of IMAP for mail, meaning that by default, the mail should appear the same on any device accessing the account, and anything done to the mail (such as deleting it) should apply to all devices. If you like, you may want to make a local copy of the mail prior to deleting it; the following article may be helpful:
