Does anyone know why I cannot use my Apple ID for iCloud?, Does anyone know why I cannot use my Apple ID for iCloud?

I am trying to use the iCloud on my laptop and I have downloaded the dashboard for this but when I enter my Apple ID it tells me it is an apple id but not for the cloud. What or where do I go to get that ID?

As was clearly explained on that download page for iCloud control panel, while you can use an iCloud account on a Windows machine, you cannot create an account from one.
You need an Apple device to create an iCloud account. Afterwards, you can use that account in Windows, but to get Apple's free iCloud service, you have to create the account initially from an Apple device.

see the bit:
"Note: To create an iCloud account you need an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 5 or later, or a Mac with OS X Lion v10.7.5 or later. ..."

A year ago I brought a 1 TB hard drive (My Passport), I have not used it for over 4 months and now when I use the USB cord to connect it to my mac, it does not register the hard drive. Does anyone know why this is happening?

A year ago I brought a 1 TB hard drive (My Passport), I have not used it for over 4 months and now when I use the USB cord to connect it to my mac, it does not register the hard drive. Does anyone know why this is happening?

The beeps could be caused by something as simple as a loose internal wire or connection. If it is under warranty (not sure how long that is, as WD drives range from 1 to 5 years depending on the model's series - I think "my passport" drives are 3 years) you could contact WD and ask them about it.
If it is out of warranty, you could also try opening the case and check the connections - the drive may be fine, and there have been posts on TomsHardware forums of people getting the beeps, opening up the case and the drive is fine, just some wire worked loose.

Why when I sync my Iphone to my Mac all my Calendar to do´s appear as though due for one hour later than they show inmy computer? Does anyone know how to fix it??

Hi,
can any one tell me why when I sync my Iphone to my Mac all my Calendar to do´s appear as though due for one hour later than they show in my computer? Does anyone know how to fix it??

Not simple enough. Please read the original concern.
The issue is not "getting music to the new machine" or "authorizing the new machine" or "transferring purchases from an idevice". The issue is that after doing all those things, even creating a backup using the new iTunes/Mac, syncing my device with the new library erases all the app data from the iPhone, as well as folder structure and page layout. Music is expendable in this situation as it's just a matter of moving the files around. (Which I did before I ever started this exercise.)
The problem is that everything from email accounts to folders are lost when I sync the device with a new computer. I tried this on my iPad first and spent a good deal of time re-arranging everything and getting all the data back. The pictures are just gone. Good thing I backed them up on the old PC.
It won't be as simple on my iPhone as I have a ton of stuff on it and can't afford to lose anything. Some of the data is gave saves and such, but other things are more important. And I don't want to lose those game saves either.

My iphone 4 is in DFU mode. However I still want the photos on the phone so I cant use the itune recover option. Does anyone know of a work around

My iphone 4 is in DFU mode. However I still want the photos on the phone so I cant use the itune recover option. Does anyone know of a work around

actually its not in DFU which is suppose to be a black screen. When it powers on there is an image of Itunes logo and the usb cord. What happened is I did an update before I backed up my photos the phone worked great after the update no issues till it powered off. When I turned it on again it had those two icons and was forcing me to sync with Itunes to system default which will wipe out my media.
Have you heard of any data recovery services

Every device (iphone4, iphone4s, ipad2) I try to hook up to iTunes gives me a message "this device cannot connect because the apple mobile device service is not setup" does anyone have ideas as to why it keeps popping up? It just started doing this.

I'd start with the following document with that one:

I copied several MOV files to a CD. When I play them from the CD the video is fine but the audio works fine for the first few seconds then stops (using Qicktime Player 7.7.1. Everything works fine if I use VLC Media Player. Does anyone have any idea why?

My purpose for copying to a CD or DVD is so that I can make copies and send to friends and relatives. What is the best way to get these files on a CD/DVD with the right codecs?
The easiest thing to do is to simply tell your friends and relatives to copy the files to their local hard drive before playing them. Your basic problem is that data discs have a limited real time transfer rate. Since you say VLC plays the files fine, I might suspect its player is likely buffering the data while the QT 7 Player is not.
Data discs made for playback directly from the CD or DVD are normally encoded using MPEG-4/AVC (H.264) video with AAC audio. This is a modern codec which has specific settings to re-package the data (i.e., must be encoded using the multipass option and then select the "optimize for CD/DVD" option).

TS1559 I have 4s. After I updated ios7.0.3 my wifi is geyed out. I expected after ios7.0.4 update wifi will work again, but does not. It annoying, because I have to use my data... Does anyone know when it will be fixed or does anyone have the same problem

I have the same problem. After the upgrade, my wifi is greyed out, and the battery won't hold a charge long. I reset all the settings, tried all the things suggested by Apple, but it didn't work. I took the phone to Verizon, but they said they can't fix it, go to Apple
I made an appointment at the Genius bar, where the staff was incredibly rude and dismissive. A representative told me that the wi-fi is broken and I would need to buy a new phone for $200, because mine is out of warranty. I'm due for an upgrade in a few months, so I'm not going to pay $200 for another 4S now. I'm also not going to buy any more Apple products. Their upgrade caused this problem, and they are not standing behind their producet.

Hi, I wish to buy an Adobe Master Collection CS3 (Corporate Edition) from someone in the US and I hope to use it in the UK. Does anyone know if this can be done without any problems, also does Adobe still allow people to register the CS3 Corporate Edition

Hi, I wish to buy an Adobe Master Collection CS3 (Corporate Edition) from someone in the US and I hope to use it in the UK. Does anyone know if this can be done without any problems, also does Adobe still allow people to register the CS3 Corporate Edition? any help would be greatly appreciated

The flaw is here:
corporate edition
...which essentially means it's most likely a volume license and thus not transferable in the first place. The rest is as Steve said - buying software on eBay is risky even on the best of days.

Does anyone know how to set up a macbook pro so that other computers can join me and use my internet connection?

Have you set up any security on the Mac Connection Sharing?
Sorry but I don't use that so I'm not familiar with the settings.
But if you haven't setup and security the iPhone might not mind but I know most Windows computers do not like to connect to Open WiFi. and make sure it is WPA or WPA2.
Then again it may be a setting in the connection sharing like some type of MAC filtering or it may simply be that Mac OS X connection sharing only allows one connection at a time. Try disconnecting your phone and then connect the PC.
As to Linc's response about Windows.
Windows basically does care about connecting to open, unsecured, WiFi. But it will normally pop up a windows asking "Are myou sure you want to connect to this open network". And a simple click on yes will get you connected and an IP address.
So this is clearly a Mac OS X problem.

When using safari I will lose internet connection, however whenever I'm using firefox this never happens. Does anyone know what is going on here?

When using Safari I will lose internet connection, however when I am using firefox this never happens. It is very annoying, does anyone else have this problem and more importantly know how to fix it?

Thank you for the reply. I did what you said, and it worked for awhile and then it started doing the same thing again. I know it's not my internet connection or router, because like I said, Firefox never has any problems. I dislike the new Firefox, so I went back to Safari, but if this keeps up I guess I'll have to go with Firefox.
You are not connected to the Internet.
Safari can’t open the page “http://www.yahoo.com/” because your computer isn’t connected to the Internet.

All ISP-provided equipment is junk. You could get a decent router and connect it to the Verizon router in bridge mode. It should cost about $ 30.

Bus powered external drive?
Backups?
Does Disk Utility can see and repair the drive or not?

Does anyone know how to get Adobe to stop charging for a subscription that is no longer being used?

Does anyone know how to get Adobe to stop charging for a subscription that is no longer being used?

For full details on cancelling a membership and subscription see the following page:
Cancel your membership or subscription | Creative Cloud
Depending on where you are in your subscription cycle / membership and the type of membership
If you have an individual membership, and opted for the annual membership (lower monthly fee). If you are cancelling in the middle of your membership, then you would be billed 50% of what's left of your membership for the remainder of the year, basically that would then in $$s become more like having taken out a month-by-month membership (higher monthly membership fee).
If you are in the last month of your annual membership or your are on a month-by-month membership, you can log into your creative cloud account, cancel the plan yourself (no additional charges apply), by logging in with your Adobe ID and password, click your name in top left of screen and click on Manage Account.
