How do I turn on my Notes on my mac for the iCloud without having to make yet another @me account?

All I want to do is save my hundreds of notes without having to email them to myself one by one.  So I switch the on button for Notes on my iPhone, and it prompts me to make an @me account.  I'm pretty sure I already have one but I make it anyways.
Then I go to my computer to switch on the Notes for my mac so that they can hopefully sync, but it prompts me yet again to make a new @me account.
Someone please help, I just want to save my Notes without having to make 5 accounts that'll be around forever.

That's not the way it's supposed to work. Once the account is created somewhere, you should be able to connect to that same account (same AppleID) on the other device(s).

  • TS4425 when opening the iCloud settings I do not see an option for the iCloud T&Cs (OS 10.8 & iOS6)

    when opening the iCloud settings I do not see an option for the iCloud T&Cs (OS 10.8 & iOS6)

    which Apple says should appear automatically once the update is completed...
    I am perplexed where you read that. It isn't true. The iPad is synced to the data available to all devices using the iCloud account if you have authorized it in the settings; PhotoStream, Contacts, Mail, Calendars, etc. That is how the iCloud works.

  • How do I store my photo library on my mac to the iCloud

    How do I store my entrée photo library, currently on my mac to the iCloud? I simply want to use the apparently massive storage i have paid for to have a "safe " place for family photos in the hopefully unlikely event of my house burning down.

    You can't.  The iCloud storage is only for backing up the content of mobile devices.  You can read more about it in this Apple Document: iCloud: iCloud storage and backup overview
    The best method of backing up your iPhoto Library is to an external HD formatted OS X Extended (journaled) connected to your iMac.  I you use Time Machine to do so you'll also be backing up your boot drive.  There is no cloud backup available that will backup an iPhoto Library due to the formatting requirements.  The other formats will not preserve the complex ecosystem of files and links within the library package.
    Some users have multiple backup of their boot drive, one with TM, one that is cloned to a EHD that can be stored off site and updated on a monthly basis, etc.

  • How do I stop iMessages from showing up on both of my iPhones without having to have two seperate iTunes accounts and still be able to use iMessage between these same two iPhones.

    My wife and I have iPhones.  We share an iTunes account and we want to keep it that way.  My iMessages began showing up on her iPhone and vise versa.  I figured out to go to settings, messages and have only the send/receive checked for our individual phone numbers.  When we do that however, we no longer can send iMessages to each other and it goes over SMS.  I don't want that.  I want to be able to send and receive iMessages with my wife without having to have a seperate iTunes account and without each other seeing each others iMessages to other iMessage users.  How do I do this?

    One of you needs to set up a separate Apple ID for iMessaging purposes only.

  • How do you download a web page to a folder on the desktop without having all of the other rubish with it

    When looking on Web Sites associated with Ancestry information how can i save the information i find to a folder on my desktop without having 3/4 files with other information that i do not want / need. The information i want is shown in a second file which is great but when i delete the 3/4 files i do not want it removes the file that i do want also. I use Windows 7.

    Hi bjmw,
    What is the method you are using to download the webpage? Are your right clicking on the webpage and choosing "Save as.." or using an alternative method? The 3 or 4 files you are getting are likely the style-sheets associated with the website, without them the website would be nearly impossible to read.
    Thanks,
    Scott

  • How do I move all of my contacts from one iCloud contacts group into another group (all iCloud) without having to make all my contacts again?

    So on my iPod I have all of my contacts but on my iPad I don't. This is because my contacts are NOT in the iCloud group. Is it possible to move all of your contacts to a different group (for me iCloud group) so I can have my contacts on my iPad (without having to creat all of my contacts again in the iCloud group from scratch). Thanks :)

    Do the contacts that are not in iCloud belong to an external account such as Gmail, Yahoo or an Exchange account?  Or, do they belong to On My iPhone?

  • How do I get 3 ipods on one computer have their own library without having to sync with another one and erasing its content?

    So I have a computer that I use for my iPod and my list is the main library that stays on the computer along with any other music my mom buys from her account. Anytime that I want to add music to any of theres, a window pops up saying that I need to sync to the library and erase the existing one they have. I dont want to do that I just want to be able to add any music they want for it without it saying that. My moms can add any music under her account to hers it still goes on to mine but at least it goes to hers. When my dads is attached it asks that question like I said before. Any one know how to make them all seperate?

  • Since I have synced my contacts with Hotmail, I can no longer use relationships. How can I get this back without having to set up another email account?

    I am currently using Hotmail with syncing enabled for mail and contacts. However, I cannot find or add the fields for family members or any relationship other than manager and assistant. I cannot add the fields manually, nor can I get Siri to assign the proper relationship to the right person (everyone defaults to manager or assistant).
    I'd really prefer not to have to use a different email address just to be able to use the phone; however, up until I synced the accounts I was able to edit relationships. Can anyone help me out?

    This is a limit with an Exchange account.

  • It's been months and there is not even a hotfix for the issues introduced by 4.3 yet

    It has been months since the 4.3 update, and there hasn't been a single hotfix or update to fix any of the issues introduced by 4.3, and let's not even mention the lateness of 4.4 in comparison to other brands. This is unacceptable.
    So many users reported issues, as basic as some of the Sound options not working, or abnormally high amounts of RAM usage, or even the **bleep** bug with the non-working camera button, making you miss important moments you wanted to photoshoot. Literally NOTHING has been done to remedy these very basic and (some very old) problems. I'm not even going to mention Xperia Facebook connectivity - it has become apparent that there are no plans to ever have this option work. And don't even pretend that we have forgotten about the touchscreen issues, which have also received ZERO RESPONCE from Sony. This is terrible.
    What is really sad is that they will probably 'rush' 4.4 (funny, as it's going to be an year late or more) and it will probably also have TONS of bugs, also left to decay for months or years before getting fixed.
    It really looks like Sony are so cheap that they wouldn't hire a second developer, because so far it seems that there is one person working to develop these updates, and probably 1 more person to test them.

    I have been waiting for some news of 4.4, but nothing seems to come out, still waiting expecting... However there was a leak from a carrier that the Z1 4.4.2 update will be released in April (for that carrier), hoping sony will release it soon..:')

  • Bought a new 4s and need to transfer photos from iCloud to new device. iCloud is giving me an old @me address. I do not have the email or pw  for the iCloud account. How do I retrieve this information? Thanks.

    If you need to change the iCloud ID on your new phone you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iPhone, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.  If you don't know the password for your old ID, or if it isn't accepted, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

    Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school enviroment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.
     Cheers, Tom
