How do I set up iCloud if I can't acces it in my system preferences?

All I want to do is turn on 'Find My Mac' in iCloud. Unfortunately I never moved my mobileme account over to icloud before mobileme was shut down (because it wasn't actually my account. My mom and I shared it but it was hers so I didn't want to mess with it). I have set up iCloud on my iPhone and i now have a @me.com email seperate from my apple ID, but when I go to system preferences and click on 'iCloud' under 'Internet and Wireless'
^^ this pops up. So then I click 'Move to iCloud' and
^^ this pops up. SO then I 'Visit iCloud.com' and
I am directed ^^ here. As I've said, I've already created an iCloud account and I have an Apple ID so everything works fine once I log in except I don't know how to add my Macbook as a device in the 'Find My iPhone' section. But from what I know the only way to turn on 'Find My Mac' is to go through the iCloud selection in system preferences, which I am unable to do. So. What do I do?
Basically I can't access the iCloud settings in system preferences like I should be able to.
Thanks!

I have multiple devices$ users on my apple account. How do I set up icloud so that we can have our own emails?

iCloud isn't designed for multiple users. Everyone involved should have their own separate iCloud account, which means they need a separate Apple ID to create it: and each should be using a separate user account on the Mac to sign into their iCloud account.

How do you set up iCloud on the iPod touch if it says too many apple accounts have been signed onto the device.

Welcome to the Apple community.
Unfortunately you will need to create your Apple ID (account) on another mobile device or a Mac computer. Once three iCloud accounts have been created on an iOS device, it doesn't matter what you do to that device, no further accounts can be created on it.

HT4759 How do I set up icloud for my ipod shuffle on my new computer windows 8. I downloaded the icloud but it tells me that i don't have the icloud and I cannot add songs to my ipod.

An iPod Shuffle can't use iCloud. It can only be used on an iOS device (iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch) running iOS 5 or higher, or on a supported Mac or PC.
Also you can't create and iCloud acount on your PC (or your iPod Shuffle). You have to create your account on an iOS device (iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch) running iOS 5 or higher, or on a Mac running OS X Lion (10.7.2) or higher. After creating the account on one of these devices you can sign into it on your PC. But this still won't allow you to add songs to your iPod Shuffle as it doesn't support iCloud.

How to instal/set UWL in order to test WF functionality also on test system

I am replacing colleague who is on hollydays.
I am pritty new in EP area. We have integrated ESS functionality with some approval workflows.
WF guy told me I have to maintain the UWL on test system as this one can not communicate with test backend system.
So far I created iviews with SAP transactions(and one with URL), page workset and a test role on an brand new system enironment consisting of an ides ecc on an freshly installed EP system.
On old test EP I am very confused (maybe because of ESS package). Other confusing thing is that on this EP system I can not add e.g an i.view(there I can not as "No templates to display. You are not assigned to any existing templates.").
So my question would be :
1.How to instal/set UWL (so that workflows can be tested on test environment i.e. old test system with ESS package in connection with backend
2.How could I get reed of "No templates to display. You are not assigned to any existing templates." message(espetially if this has any impact on qustion 1.)
Thank you in advance for your imout

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
In order to copy songs to your iPod, first you need to download the song you want from iTunes. If it was already purchased in the iTunes Store, follow the steps for iTunes on a PC or Mac > http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

System Preferences quits suddenly. I have lost the dock, including the trash and ability to change desktop image. How can I replace this part of System Preferences? Where can I find Trash?

System Preferences quits suddenly. I have lost the dock, including the trash and ability to change desktop image. How can I replace this part of System Preferences? Where can I find Trash? All other aspects of System Preferences work.

just that that is one method, and lacks provision for working boot image and for an emergency - Lion gives a small minimal emergency boot environment but may lack all the utilities you need to use and run, even some drivers that your mac requires for add on PCIe.
Just grab and look through Help in Carbon Copy and SuperDuper, both excellent and each has their use - together - for cloning.
And do you have two TM backup sets? ought to consider that also, rotate daily or make a weekly set. Otherwise you are putting all your eggs in the proverbial one basket.

My ipad has been stolen by one of my room mates. How do I set up icloud on it if i dont have it so I can locate it? PLEASE HELP!

Please help me. I need to set up icloud some how so I can locate my ipad that was stolen.

I'm afraid that if you didn't have iCloud set up and 'Find My iPad' enabled on it before it was stolen there is nothing you can do. It's not possible to activate this facility remotely.
