Does seagate back up still back up if I use icloud for contacts & calendar?

will my back up hard drive back up contact and calendar using iCloud on mac bk pro?

Yes you need to maintain a local backup in addition to what goes on the cloud. To be 100% safe you should continue to back up your calendar and contacts locally in addition to using iCloud. Multiple backups are always better than relying on just one source. iCloud may go off line one day when you need something or something similarly strange could happen. Better to be safe than sorry.
Skydrive does have a Mac client so he could get those items from Windows onto Skydrive and then download them to the Mac. That would be using the cloud, so yes he could do that. See https://apps.live.com/skydrive/app/f644a8ef-9f98-4d1b-a3d2-eab969b0fd44 for more information.

  • HT204053 How does my spouse get the benefits of using my iCloud for contacts and calanders but not messages, etc?

    How does my spouse get the benefits of using my iCloud for contacts and calanders but not messages, etc?

    iCloud is designed for personal use and not for managing multiple access.  If you gives your password to someone else, this person can benefit everything including access to purchase with your account, email, etc.
    You should rather consider having each one an iCloud account and then, create and share a calendar.  As for contact, you can send them to your spouse to be save in her account but they cannot be shared nor synced.

  • I recently backed up my iPhone using iCloud and now can not get my camera roll onto my new iPhone or my Mac.  Did I lose all the photos from my old phone?

    I recently picked up a new iPhone6.  Before i handed in my old phone(iphone5), I backed it up using iCloud.
    Now I can't seem to get the photos from my old camera roll onto my new phone or my Mac.  Did I lose all
    the photos from my old phone?

    1. Create a backup of your iPad to iTunes on your computer or to iCloud
    2. Transfer any and all photos & videos on your iPad to your computer.
    3. Erase the iPad and restore the iPhone's iCloud backup to the device.
    4. Transfer any and all photos & videos on your iPad to your computer.
    5. Restore the iPad backup you reated in step #1 back to the iPad.

  • My notes are not backing up to icloud, but contacts/calendar info is.  Anyone know of a solution?

    I have the default account set to icloud under notes in the settings too & it still isn't updating my notes in icloud when I back up my 3GS phone on the pc.  Please help....I have a lot of info in my notes that I want to back up so that it can then be transferred to my new iphone 5.
    Thank you for any help/suggestions!

    Hello hayleyearnold,
    It sounds like you are trying to sync your contacts and notes with iCloud so that they show up on your other devices and iCloud.com.  I found some articles that might help with this.
    I recommend looking at the section titled "Troubleshooting iCloud Contacts update or setup issues with iOS devices" in the following article:
    iCloud: Troubleshooting iCloud Contacts
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3998
    For the issue you are experiencing with Notes, I recommend reviewing the following article:
    iOS: Syncing Notes
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4191
    Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Communities.  
    Best,
    Sheila M.

  • HT5824 The only thing I want to use iCloud for is to back up my contacts.  Since I have almost completely filled my my free 5GB I am assuming that iCloud is backing up other stuff I don't want.  Please help!

    How do I ensure that iCloud is backing up only my contacts list?  I want to stay within the 5GB and it apparently is almost full.

    You can manage your iCloud storage here:
    Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > Manage Storage > Select your device
    From here you can mangae what gets backup and see how much spoace each item is using.
    I assume it is mostly your Camera Roll.
    If so Import your photos and videos from your iOS device to your computer so they can be backed up. Then they can be deleted from your phone.
    You can also turn off iCloud Backup and backup with iTunes instead.

  • Icloud does not recognize my new ID & i can not use icloud to delete the account for a new one

    i cloud does not recognize my new Apple ID on my mini ipad i had no problem with mac book & iphone  only with the ipad

    Did you change the assigned email address of your account before you tried to change it on the iPad? If yes then you would have to change the ID back to the old email address, then sign out, then change it back to the new address and then sign in again.

  • When does a clock signal appear on a RTSI bus using DAQmx for a PCI NI-4472 DSA?

    Hello,
    I am trying to synchronize several PCI NI-4472 DSA boards over a RTSI cable using MATLAB. I have read that with DAQmx it is not necessary to use DAQmxExportSignal to put the clock signal on a RTSI line provided that the RTSI cable is registered in MAX and that the DSA cards are listed as being connected to the RTSI device. Apparently, the DAQmx drivers are supposed to route the clock signal between the cards as required….
    So I have done the above and see in MAX, in the device routes tab for Dev1, that
    /Dev1/ai/SampleClock uses RTSI6
    /Dev1/ai/SampleClockTimebase uses RTSI8
    Right now I am monitoring the RTSI lines on an oscilloscope in the hopes of detecting a clock signal on one of the three boards in the system while one board (the eventual master) is acquiring data using the Test Panels in MAX. I am getting nothing on the ‘scope (may be monitoring the wrong line – have just posted a request for RTSI pinouts for this DSA) and am wondering under what circumstances is the clock present on the RTSI bus.
    My real problem is that MATLAB R14SP3 does not yet support a master card in a synchronization application but, oddly enough, seems to allow one to setup slave cards. I would like to continue using the MATLAB data acquisition toolbox to manage the DSA cards and the application and would rather avoid using calls the DAQmx dll library. (It's not clear how to integrate the functionality of the data acquisition toolbox with direct calls to the DAQmx library.) So I am looking for a workaround to get the clock signal on the RTSI bus so that I may try out the slaves.
    Thanks,
    Sebulba

    Hi
    Both ports of a two port CAN board are handled by one processor and they use the same memory for alocating the necessary queues.
    But, both ports if connected to different CAN buses have their own handle, own queues and error handling. That means if one Bus enters to BUS OFF, the second bus can still communicate. And you can stop and restart communication independently on both ports. Even the ncaction reset works  on a single port at a time.

  • Aperture 3.3 Upgrade, still not actually managed to use Aperture for anything!

    I eagerly downloaded 3.3 as soon as it was available - the idea of a shared library/format between iPhoto and Aperture is great - sharing Faces/Places etc.
    But I haven't been able to do anything with it yet!  After the initial library conversion, once I'd gone into Aperture it started generating previews for my entire collection - about 50,000 images - not sure why this was necessary - since the previews were there before the upgrade.
    I've had the activity window more or less permanently open since I did the upgrade last week, and there are still over 8,000 previews to go - hopefully by the weekend it will have finished and I'll actually be able to try out some of the new features.
    While doing this preview generation, Aperture hangs periodically (and never seems to recover requiring a force quit and restart) when it tries simultaenously to sync the Facebook albums.
    I mention all this because unlike with the previous version, when if there was some activity to carry out, if you started to use Aperture, the activities would pause - this doesn't seem to happen now - or at least the application is so busy with the background activity, that it doesn't seem possible to kick off an action that might make it suspend background activity.
    Doesn't look like a stable release to me so far - although maybe after this questionable preview re-generation I'll find a different story - has anyone else encountered this behaviour?

    Same here.  I was able to open the Activity window and pause the generation of Previews.  I did this in order to access some of the Images in the Library.  I don't advise doing any work with it, though, until it is completely stable.  On restart, it will again commence generating Previews (and in my case, thumbnails).
    I don't know what the problem is, or why it happened, or whether once it finishes generating Previews it will be stable.
    Extrapolating, it seems it will take about four days of solid processing to generate all the Previews.  Ouch.

  • I have 3 PC's.  Two of them I use at 2 different locations and only use them 6 months a year.  So, if I have Icloud for my calendar, and turn on a computer that has not been used for 6 months, does all the old information on that computer to go Icloud?

    I have 3 PC's.  Two of them I use at 2 different locations and only use them 6 months each year.  When I turn on a computer that has not been used for 6 months, does all of the old information from that computer end up in Icloud?  Does Icloud push all the new calendar and contact items over the old items?

    A reset may help. Tap and hold the Home button and the On/Off buttons for approximately 10-15 seconds, until the Apple logo reappears. When the logo appears, release both buttons.
    No content is affected by this procedure.

  • How do I reformat my Seagate Expansion external hard drive so I can use it for Mac

    I recently purchased a 3TB Seagate® Expansion® external hard drive for PC. My plan is too reformat it so that I can use it, but it has been acting wierd on me. It says on Disk Utility that it is 4 gbs but I have a 3TB one. Im on OSX mavericks by the way. Thanks!

    akostainsek,
    the diskutil output shows that the disk has no Apple-recognized partitioning. Try the following commands in Terminal to establish the partitioning, and to see if it takes effect:
    diskutil eraseDisk JHFS+ Seagate disk1
    diskutil list
    Again, please include in your reply the full output from these commands.

  • Does firefox offer a text only of low data use browser for 3g usage

    I have a netbook and want to be economical in data with a 3g data plan. Does firefox have a means of lowering wireless data usage perhaps with low res graphics and text coming from websites?

    Something like supplying low resolution images and the caching of the full resolution images ''(for call-up at will)'' is usually a service provided by the ISP; on dial-up land-line services it's called a "web accelerator" plugin and service. Check with your wireless company to see if they offer a feature like that for Firefox.
    Take a look at the Image Block extension and see if that will be helpful to you. That's about all I can think of to do through Firefox.

  • Have two i phones owned by one person.  Gave older I phone 4 to spouse.  All synced items going to both phones.  Created two different Apple ID Accounts but still having problems.  Bought more icloud for one device but it went to the other one didnt need

    How can i seperate to i phones that have been synced together.  I created two different Apple Id accounts but for instance my icloud purchase didnt go to the phone i needed it to go to

    If you look at Settings > iCloud on each phone, is the Account different? The Apple ID listed there should control iCloud storage allocation.  [I assume your "icloud purchase" was more storage capacity.]
    The Apple ID is separately specified to control iMessage, iTunes and App Store purchases, etc.
