How do I find the iCloud icon to add to the dock

How do I find the iCloud icon to add to the dock.  I believe this was on the dock when I first had the computer.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
iCloud is not an application, so it does not appear on the Dock or Applications folder. Instead, you can manage iCloud settings in System Preferences > iCloud.
iCloud only appears as an application in Windows because of iCloud Control Panel

  • I installed the latest version of icloud control panel (allegedly Windows 8 compatible) on my Windows 8 laptop. Installation successful, but on clicking on the icloud icon nothing happens. The same software worked on my Windows 7 PC.

    Superb detail, thank you.
    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • Where is the iCloud icon? I have a new ipad and although in settings I have the icon and have set music, mail etc to be stored on the cloud I do not have the icon on my home page or on the safari tool bar

    Where is the iCloud icon ? I have the iCloud settings set to on for music, mail etc but the icon is not on my safari tool bar nor is the icon present on my home screen

    There is no iCloud app or icon on your phone.  iCloud is enabled and configured in your settings, but you access your iCloud data through the apps you are syncing with iCloud.  iCloud contacts are accessed through the Contacts app on your phone, Mail through the Mail app, Reminders through the Reminders app, etc.
    You can also access some of this data on icloud.com from a computer.  You can't, however, access icloud.com from your phone.

  • I want to update my imac software to a version that uploads the icloud icon in preferences. Which version do I need and how do I force my imac to update that software.

    I am currently running OSX 10.6.8. this version does not have the icloud icon in system preferences. How do I do a forced software update to a version that allows icloud operations. To qualify I have done a number of software updates using the software update dropdown but it does not find the most recent software like mountain Lion or Mavericks etc.  Why? surely if I am asking the computer to find the most recent software it would tel me that I am running an out of date software level?

    Hi Tubbsy,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    When you run Software Updates from the Apple Menu, it looks for software to update for your current operating system. The first version of Mac OS X to have iCloud functionality built into the System Preferences was Mac OS X Lion 10.7. The current version of Mac OS X Yosemite 10.10 is available in the Mac App Store that you can access from the Apple Menu and it is free. Please be sure to check the system requirements to make sure your computer can support the software before downloading and installing. The attached article contains that information and instructions for downloading and installing.

  • I have the ICloud icon.  When I try to sign in using my Apple ID, the message says that the ID is valid but I don't have an account.  How do I get an an Icloud account?

    I have the ICloud icon on my PC - Windows 7 - and the program.  When I try to sign in using my Apple ID, the message says that the ID is valid but I don't have an account.  How do I get an an Icloud account?

    You can't create an iCloud account on your PC.  You have to first create an iCloud account on an iOS device (iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch) or Mac (running OS X Lion or higher).  After creating the account on one of these devices you can use the ID to sign into the account on your PC.

  • HT202667 I don't know the password to my iCloud email account. My Apple and iTunes ID is not my iCloud email address. How do I find my iCloud password? I would like to add this email address to a mail app.

    I Downloaded an app that keeps all address' in one place. I went to add my iCloud email and when asked for my password, nothing I tried worked. It is obviously not the same password that I use to login to my Apple or iTunes account. How do I find out my password?

    Hi Kim,
    The password for your iCloud account and your Apple ID are one in the same, as the iCloud email account is an alias for your Apple ID as well.
    After you set up your @icloud.com email address, you can use it to sign in to iCloud. You can also sign in using the Apple ID you used to create your iCloud account.

  • I can't find the icloud icon in my system preferences so i can use find my iphon max book.

    I'm trying to use the Find My Iphone app to track my MacBook but i cannot find the icloud icon in my system preferences. Is it true that I have to buy the latest software up-date before i can do this. I can't believe that PC users can get it for free and Mac users have to pay for it.

    iCloud is part of the 10.7 Lion operating system.

  • I accidentally deleted the iCloud icon, how can I get it back?

    Where can I find it to add back to my desktop?

    There is no iClould icon or app in iOS that you could delete.
    The iCloud setup is done inside the Settings app.

  • When I click on the iCloud icon it says that it will download without additional charge because I've already purschased it but after that it goes back to the icloud icon and doesnt download. How can I download it?

    Im having trouble downloading the iMovie app on my iPad. When I click on the iCloud icon it says that it will download without additional charge because I've already purchased it(I did purchase it) but after that it goes back to the icloud icon and doesnt download. How can I download it?

    Hello bianca,
    It sounds like you are trying to download a previous purchase to your iPad but the item never downloads. I would recommend starting by closing all the apps that are running in the background.
    iOS: Force an app to close
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
    Double-click the Home button.
    Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
    Swipe the app up to close it.
    When you have done that, sign out of your iTunes account in Settings > iTunes and App stores, and restart the phone and try again:
    iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    If the issue persists, I would next backup your device to iTunes, and restore it:

  • HT1766 I do not see the icloud icon in my settings.  How do I restore or load it?

    I do not see the icloud icon in my settings.  How do I restore or load it?

    I do not see how you could not have iCloud in the settings if you are running iOS 5 or higher. If you are running iOS 6, it should be directly below the Privacy Setting.

  • I can't find the icloud icon on the system preferences menu. There is only a Mobile me icon.  I can't set up my icloud.

    I can't find the icloud icon on the system preferences menu. There is only a Mobile me icon.  I can't set up my icloud.

    my mac os is 10.6.8 and when I try to upgrade, says I have most up to date software.
    You do. 10.6.8 is the latest update to 10.6.
    10.7 Lion or 10.8 Mountain Lion are paid upgrades. Buy 10.8 in the Mac App Store if your Mac is compatible by searching for "Mountain Lion." If not, call Apple to order 10.7 Lion after making sure your Mac meets the requirements.

  • How do I find out if my iTunes ID is the same as my iCloud password?

    How do I find out if my iTunes password is the same as my iCloud password?

    Hello jenny86753092008,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities! Your iTunes and iCloud passwords will always be the same unless you have multiple accounts with us. To check to see if you have multiple accounts, you can use this handy Apple ID tool:
    Apple - My Apple ID
    https://iforgot.apple.com/appleid
    You can also contact us for assistance to see if you have multiple Apple ID accounts:
    If you forgot your Apple ID password - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201487
    Make sure that you’re entering the correct Apple ID. In most cases, your Apple ID is also the primary email address of your Apple ID account. If these steps didn't help you change your password, contact Apple Support.
    Cheers,
    Matt M.

  • Why are all my movies and tv shows now on my ipad with the icloud icon?  How can i get rid of them?

    Why are all my movies and tv shows from my library now on my ipad with the icloud icon?  I have turned off all icloud related services. I have never used it.  On top of that, my ipad now gets stuck on step 5 of the sync - waiting for changes to be applied and never finishes.
    Help

    Hi, go in Settings, under Videos turn off "Show all videos"  this will remove the purchased videos to be displayed in the Video app.  The same can be done with the music.
    As for Step 5, connect you iPad and on the summary Tab, uncheck
    "Sync only checked songs and videos".  Then wait, it takes a while but this made it work for me after many restore attempts.
    good luck
