Can you answer any questions you know, such as:
Mobile device support (i.e., platforms) ?
Is there file synchronization among multiple devices ?
Central administrative management console?
How much does the service cost per $/month/system?
Are there Bandwidth caps and/or data transfer fees?
Is there a Free trial?
How about Free storage?
Does the service enable file downloads to local devices?
Is there Bandwidth throttling?
Real-time collaborative editing?
Is there any Third-party application integration like MS Office, etc.?
Is there the ability to Wipe files/folders from user devices?
Public file share?
Data compression/ deduplication
Is there Restore of individual files/folders?
Does the service offer Stored data encryption?
How about Data transmission encryption/
Is there Password protection for linked files?
Data integ./tampering checks?
Is the service FIPS 140-2 compliant?
API for custom apps?
Customer support hours?
Concierge-style customer service?
Option to host data on-premise?
Thanks in advance!

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Mobile device support (i.e., platforms) ?
Is there file synchronization among multiple devices ?
Central administrative management console?
iCloud only works with iOS based mobile devices, it works across multiple iOS devices, aside from turning each feature on and off on each device, there is no other management system.
How much does the service cost per $/month/system?
Are there Bandwidth caps and/or data transfer fees?
Is there a Free trial?
How about Free storage?
The service is free and includes 5 GB of storage (you'll need to subscribe for more), as such there is no need for a free trial, data caps are a matter for your service provider, Apple has no restrictions.
Does the service enable file downloads to local devices?
Is there Bandwidth throttling?
Real-time collaborative editing?
Is there any Third-party application integration like MS Office, etc.?
Document and data syncing are a feature of iCloud, bandwith is a matter for your service provider, changes made on one device are synced relatively quickly to other devices, there are lots of other developers that have integrated their apps with iCloud, M$ office isn't currently one of them, they don't have an app.
Is there the ability to Wipe files/folders from user devices?
Public file share?
Data compression/ deduplication
Is there Restore of individual files/folders?
Anything you delete on one device is deleted on all others, there is no public sharing, iCloud is a personal service,your documents are not compressed, you can only restore documents and data from a back up.
Does the service offer Stored data encryption?
How about Data transmission encryption/
Is there Password protection for linked files?
Data integ./tampering checks?
Is the service FIPS 140-2 compliant?
API for custom apps?
Your data is encryted online (well not all, some things aren't to enable fast searches), no password protection for documents, your account is password protected, no idea about encryption certification, API's are available for developers.
Customer support hours?
Concierge-style customer service?
Option to host data on-premise?
This is a free personal service, customer support is online as per other support from Apple.

Hi Mary,
I don't remember those arrows in 10.6, only 10.7 & up!?
I have 10.6.8, as you do. To make your Safari full screen, make sure you have the left hand side of your safari page moved all the way to the left. Then move your cursor to the BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER of the safari page, and simply drag your page towards the lower right hand corner of the screen. NOTE: you will see a series of lines on the bottom right corner of the page, indicating where to place you cursor arrow.

Hi Patrick,
Yes, a very frusterating issue indeed. Someone else had mentioned a possible issue with real player, I tried getting rid of that and same issues. I even got completely rid of firefox for the moment. Guess what, problem still is persisting. I think this means it maybe something else altogether. I will go back to re-add firefox after I get this straightened out but now using Chrome for the moment.
What I've also found out is that the sound can be restarted when I unplug and replug in the 3.5mm speaker cable from the audio output jack on the back of the computer. Any ideas?
Thanks!

Hi there,
You're running an old version of Safari. Before troubleshooting, try updating it to the latest version: 6.0. You can do this by clicking the Apple logo in the top left, then clicking Software update.
You can also update to the latest version of OS X, 10.8 Mountain Lion, from the Mac App Store for $19.99, which will automatically install Safari 6 as well, but this isn't essential, only reccomended.
Thanks, let me know if the update helps,
Nathan

HT1926 I'm attempting to reinstall ITunes because of a runtime error (R6034) when I start it. At end of install it says 'Apple Mobile Device' failed to start. I verified that I have admin privileges. Can anyone help?

Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
Please note:
Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

Ipad 2 - 30gb and running out of space, but i don't have that many movies - can anyone help

ipad 2 - 30gb and running out of space, but i don't have that many movies - can anyone help? How do i find a directory of files that I can manage (PC user)?
thanks!

You might have to do some experimenting from iTunes on your computer.
Several months back, I had a phantom 5G of video. I unchecked ALL video files and synced the iPad and the 5G was still there. I was able to delete the 5G and bring it back by repeatedly unchecking and checking the "Sync Movies" box.
A "Restore" solved my problem. Be forewarned that it's not quick:
Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."

Hi I have a geometry problem.Can anyone help with java code

Hi I have a non simple polygon . My job is to make it a simple. for that First I need to find the intersecting lines say line AB intersects line CD. If so then I must replace AB & CD with AC & BD or AD or BC which ever keeps the polygon closed . So can anyone help me out with this code

Hi I am sorry I could explain you properly . Ok
My program gives me a polygon(as you can see when u
run this program)But the polygon is a non simple
polygon.So to make this polygon we must remove all
the crossings betweeen edges in the polygon.The
algorithm which i gave will remove all the crossings
and make the polygon simple.You did not give an algorithm!
SO my job is to take the
existing code and implement the algorithm for this
program in the Createsimpelpolygon() function. For
this First the program must find whether two edges
cross if they cross then swap the vertices like
replace AB & CD with AC & BD or AD & BC.Which ever
keeps the polygon closed . Still not entirely clear to me. You cannot just go and replace vertexes from a polygon: that way you'll end up with a different polygon.
So as we go on we find the
many crossings and iterate the algorithm on all the
crossings until we get simple polygon.Like I said: I don't really understand what it is you're after. You did not respond to my suggestions, so I gather it is not what you're after?
What about Polygon Tessellation (Google for it)? Perhaps that's what you want.
Also, why do you not create a (or use java.awt's) Point class and a Polygon class which holds a java.util.Set of Point's? Your current code looks rather messy.

When trying to download apps, it's telling me to choose e security questions, but won't let me see the 3rd question to continue, can anyone help pl

when trying to download apps, it's telling me to choose 3 security questions, but won't let me view the 3rd question, can anyone help plz ?

Reboot your iPad and then see if you can set the security questions.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

My music keeps jumping and i cant play it on my iphone since i backed up to icloud. can anyone help me and tell me how to get my music back to normal. thanks

my music on my uphone that i bought through itunes keeps jumping around and i cannot play it since i backed up my phone to icloud. Can anyone help me play my music again without it all jumping around. thanks

Backing up to iCloud should have nothing to do with how your music plays. Try force-closing the misic app: from the home screen, double-tap the home button, locate Music in the list at the bottom, tap and hold it until it wiggles, tap to close it, tap the home button again. Try your music again.

Trying to get my iphone 4s to voice text. can not find siri. i have model MC676LL/A can anyone help?

I'm trying to use voice texting on iphone 4s. The model is MC676LL/A yet i don't find siri in settings-general. can anyone help?

As provided:
The model number you posted is for an iPhone 4, not a 4S. Thus, if you have an iPhone 4, that's why you don't have Siri.

I have multiple Apple IDs. Is there a way for me to merge them into a single Apple ID?
Apple IDs cannot be merged. You should use your preferred Apple ID from now on, but you can still access your purchased items such as music, movies, or software using your other Apple IDs.

When was the last time you did a backup with iTunes? If your latest backup has all of the material you have been using you can recover by connecting to the computer you sync with and restore the content via iTunes. Attach to your computer, open iTunes and do a backup restore.
