How do i replace mobile me with icloud

In system preferences mobile me icon still there. I need to switch to icloud. How do I download it? How do I switch it? I have an icloud account and want to sync my new laptop to my imac and my ipad mini.

The minimum requirement for iCloud is Lion 10.7.2 (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.
You can set Snow Leopard up to access the email on an existing iCloud account which has been set up on a compliant device, and you may be able to sync iCal using an unsupported (and possibly unreliable) hack, but no other facilities will work. You cannot open an iCloud account on Snow Leopard.
This page outlines the limited use you can make of an existing iCloud account with Snow Leopard:
http://www.wilmut.webspace.virginmedia.com/notes/icloudSL.html
To make full use of iCloud you will have to upgrade your Mac to Lion or Mountain Lion, 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.
The requirements for Mountain Lion are listed here:
http://www.apple.com/osx/specs/
It is available from the Mac App Store (in Applications). (If you are currently pre-Snow Leopard you will have to upgrade to that to access the Mac App Store: it's available in the online Apple Store.)
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

How do I replace the organiser with a new one

How do I replace the organiser with a new one

The problem is to understand your question (or your two questions : do you both mean the same thing ?)
An answer to Hatstead question would help.
1 - Do you really mean using another software to organize your workflow ?
2 - Do you mean using other softwares based on folders rather than databases ?
3 - Or do you mean working with different catalogs ?
If you don't want to use the Organizer, it's not possible to 'delete' it, but it is simple not to use it.
Most other organizing solutions include the choice of selecting PSE editor as the external editor
There are various solutions depending on your platform : Windows, Mac, Linux...
It's important to know if you prefer the folders or database organization to suggest possible solutions.

How to replace .mac account with iCloud for web hosting?

I have a website that I created on MS Frontpage and have been uploading that to my .mac account for years. Eventually I'll probably change to iWeb, but for the time being I just want to make it active again. With iCloud, my .mac account was deleted, and I am just now getting around to updating. The question I have is whether or not this same funcationality exists now that .mac or mobileme is no longer around.

iWeb is no longer being developed or supported by Apple but it is still functional under the latest OS X...

How to change the name associated with iCloud email alias??

I had MobileMe on the iPhone with alias email addresses and I liked how it didn’t attach any “name” to an alias. For example, I had MainUserName, then for aliases I would have [email protected], [email protected], etc. When I sent an email from my iPhone using one of the aliases as the "from" no name would be associated with the alias email address. If it was the MainUserName then it would associate it, e.g. Main User <[email protected]> will show up on the "From" field when I sent an email. But with iCloud on the iPhone (and iPad), it’s Main User <[email protected]>, Main User <[email protected], etc., which I don’t want. If anything it should be Alias 1 <[email protected]> or Alias 2 <[email protected]>. Anyway, I don't want any name associated with the aliases, so when I send an email it will simply say [email protected] or just [email protected] with no name association.
It works differently if I access iCloud through a web browser. If I send an email via iCloud on the web, I can customize and have a different name with each alias, e.g., Tom <[email protected]> or Harry <[email protected]> And the customization carries over to the Mail app on my Mac. That would be ideal if the customization carried over to the iPhone and iPad, but I'd be happy if there was no name association with alias email addresses. Hopefully, there's a solution to the iPhone/iPad situation with iCloud as I don't want the name linked with the main iCloud email address linked with all the different email aliases I have.

How do i replace my ipad with a new model in itunes?

I'm replacing an iPad with an iPad 3rd generation and will be gifting the iPad to a friend.
What steps do I need to take in iTunes for this to run smoothly?
I want to end up with:
1) The new iPad working but with all of my data, screen layouts and settings from my old iPad.
2) The old iPad "de-registered" (if that's possible/necessary) and reset to factory default conditions with no data present and working on myfriends iTunes account.
Is 1) as simple as backing up the original iPad in iTunes and plugging the new one in and restoring from the old backup? Possible complication: I get the "This iPad is synced with another computer. Do you want to erase and restore..." message whenerver I plug it in, although it does seem to sync when I cancel the "erase and restore" dialog. Would this complicate things?
Re 2), my friend has an iPhone 4 and uses iTunes already. Is plugging in my "wiped" iPad all he needs to do? How do I reset the original iPad?
I hope that these are simple questions, already encountered by many of you, but myself and my friend are at the stage where we have both only had one apple product and have never had to manage another device in iTunes so we just don't know what to expect and don't want to lose any data!
Thanks in advance for your time and help!

Illustrator CS2 - How do I replace a color with another color?

Most of the image uses a gray color. I'd like everything colored with grey, to be black. How do I replace gray color w/ black?

One way would be to select one object of the gray color, then choose, Select > Same Fill Color. This will select everything of that color. Click the black swatch to change them all at once.

How do I replace quotation marks with double angle quotation marks, still keeping the word in the mi

Hi,
Does anyone know how to replace quotation marks with double angle quotation marks, still keeping the word in the middle?
For example: I search for a word with quotation marks by typing in: (")(\w+)(") in the "find what" field. What should I type in the "change to" field?
I'd be very grateful for answers!

It's much simpler: find " and replace with " (make sure that 'Use typographer's quotes' is enabled in the preferences).

I usually just write over the file with the same file name, often with DVDSP closed.
If you're doing an m2v file and the duration has changed, just go the the end of the clip in the track and drag it right as far as you can. Otherwise it'll replace the asset but use the previous version's duration.

How do I replace Admin account with transferred account?

Just setup my new Imac. Used migration assistant to transfer via firewire my existing account from my Macbook. The transferred account shows up on my new Imac in accounts under "other accounts".
HOW do I replace my Main User Account with my newly transferred Macbook account as I don't want both accounts; just the one I transferred to serve as the main account? The option to delete the main account in system preferences > accounts is greyed out.
Thx.

For new Macs, I usually try to quit the setup assistant as soon as it will let me.
I define an initial account that has no personal information, and a user called "Master", or "Administrator", or something similar.
This account is then the bare bones original account as set up by OSX, and I never change it.
In this way, if an account becomes corrupt, I can always go back to this clean, unaltered account, and delete old (or add new) administrative accounts as necessary.
This would work for your condition as well. Just keep the new imported account as your main user, and the original account setup when the machine was new becomes your "backup" Master.
