How do I download icloud on to my macbook pro? It does not automatically have it...

Just need a download link for icloud so I can install it on my macbook pro. Already have an icloud account on my phone, but not on my laptop... Thanks!

The minimum requirement for iCloud is Lion 10.7.5 (Mountain Lion preferred): the iCloud Preference Pane does not appear on earlier systems - the MobileMe pane appears on Lion and earlier but is non non-functional - you cannot now open or access a MobileMe account.
To make use of iCloud you will have to upgrade your Mac to Lion or Mavericks, provided it meets the requirements.
The requirements for Lion are:
Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
2GB of memory
OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
7GB of available space
To purchase it you will have to ring Apple at the number given at the bottom left of this page. It's also possible to purchase Mountain Lion the same way (it's no longer directly available in the Mac App Store) but there seems little point as the system requirements are the same for Mavericks - which is free - unless you need to run specific software which will run on Mountain Lion only.
The requirements for Mavericks are:
OS X v10.6.8 or later
2GB of memory
8GB of available space
and the supported models are:
iMac (Mid 2007 or newer)
MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)
MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)
Xserve (Early 2009)
MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)
Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer)
Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)
It is available from the Mac App Store (in Applications).
You should be aware that PPC programs (such as AppleWorks) will not run on Lion or above; and some other applications may not be compatible - there is a useful compatibility checklist at http://roaringapps.com/apps:table

    First... Check here to see if your Mac is compatible...
    http://www.apple.com/osx/how-to-upgrade/
    If so... would recommend at least 4GB of RAM... if not 8 GB
    It is important to get the Correct and Matching RAM
    See Here  >  OWC RAM  >  http://www.macsales.com
    The above site also has videos on how to Install RAM should you need it...
    Also... Check here for compatibility of 3rd party Software you may be using...

  • How do I use iCloud to backup my Macbook Pro?

    How do I use iCloud to backup my Macbook Pro?

    Hi Rob
    It sounds like my problem is the same as yours..... Sorry, but I'm a bit of an iPad dummy so am writing for some more clarification...
    My problem is..... I am away from home and only travelling with my iPad, however we have sold our house and my bigpond email address on my iPad is getting clogged with all the solicitors stuff etc, so I really need these emails for my files...
    I want to be able to backup these up (so that I can retrieve them later to print out and file) and delete them from my iPad...
    I've just created an iCloud email account (I think) is this what you did? So should I forward all my emails to this iCloud email account? And will I be able to retrieve them later?
    I hope you login here to see my question.....
    Thanks Janet

    How do I download Adobe Flash Player for a computer that does not have internet?

    Hello Walter,
    that's it, usually you get and Adobe Flash Player Installer only.  For a distribution in a company, or an installation on a PC without internet access, Adobe has available an offline installer. This installer you don't need to uncompress it first. You can download the installation file from there (you must logged in with your Adobe ID): http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/distribution3.html

    You would be incorrect on that.  
    Commercial music videos are not to be downloaded, nor is there any difference between that and illegal torrent downloading of copyrighted material.
    Such actions pertaining to commercial copyrighted videos / music videos (lots on youtube) is not legal.
    Any distribution of videos, music or text without the express permission of the copyright-holder is copyright infringement
    regardless of all of that, Google/Youtube clearly notes that its against their policy to allow same from their site on such materials (not all, but most of it there).
    most such videos are not free and "open public domain" materials

    Thanks for any help!

    You may need to put the iPad into recovery mode : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808 - you should then be able to reset the iPad.
    If you haven't synced to a computer them (from here) :
    If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present.

  • I have bought the iPad 3 and created an iCloud account.  How do I download the data from my Macbook pro to my desktop Mac?

    Please help me.  I want to sync all of my data on my iPad 3, my Macbook Pro and my Mac Desktop.  I have created an iCloud account and what I see on my Macbook Pro is also on my iPad. How do I now download the data which I think is on my iCloud account to my Mac Desktop? 
    I have already gone into preferences on my desktop, found the iCloud and set up my preferences under my account.  Am I missing something?
    I would hate to have to take my desktop to an Apple store.  Thank you in advance for all of your help.

    This forum is for questions about Apple Remote Desktop, Apple's software for managing networked Mac systems, and hence not the best place for your question. I'd suggest asking for assistance in the iCloud forums.
    Regards.

  • How can i download icloud on a white macbook

    i am havng diffuiculty trying to download icould for my macbook it is the latest white one out before they canceled them.

    iCloud requires OS X Lion 10.7.2 or higher, which in turn requires:
    Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
    2GB of memory
    OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
    7GB of available space
    If I'm not mistaken, your MacBook does not have an Intel Core 2 Duo processor (you can check by going to  > About this Mac) so it will not be able to use iCloud, other than adding your iCloud email account.

  • How do I get icloud on a 2010 MacBook Pro?

    I have a 2010 MacBook Pro and when I update my system preferences I don't get Icloud?  How do I install/download icloud?

    Open the Mac App Store. Icon for it is in the Dock.
    Once the App store is open search for Mavericks. That is IF your Mac can run Mavericks. If not you might be able to install Lion which you would first need to buy from the Apple Online Store, Link to that store is at the top of this forum page.

    You connect the iPhone to the MBP using the supplied cable and set up the iPhone in iTunes to sync your contacts. Posting in the iPhone forums might be a better venue for you.
