HT1338 can I use upgrade to ICloud if i'm running 10.5.8

can I  upgrade to ICloud if i'm running Leopard 10.5.8

Not anything other than eMail, & viewing it in a web browser.
Do not delete the old account yet. sign up for an iCloud account if you haven't.
I understand .mac mail will still come through. Do not delete the old account yet.
You cannot use .mac or MobileMe as type of Account, you have to choose IMAP when setting up, otherwise Mail is hard coded to change imap.mail.me.com to mail.me.com & smtp.mail.me.com to smtp.me.com, no matter what you try to enter.
iCloud Mail setup, do not choose .mac or MobileMe as type, but choose IMAP...
On second step where it asks "Description", it has to be a unique name, but you can still use your email address.
IMAP (Incoming Mail Server) information:
• Server name: imap.mail.me.com
• SSL Required: Yes
• Port: 993
• Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
• Password: Your iCloud password
SMTP (outgoing mail server) information:
• Server name: smtp.mail.me.com
• SSL Required: Yes
• Port: 587
• SMTP Authentication Required: Yes
• Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
• Password: Your iCloud password

  • I have two iphones, different telcos, i am using the same apple id for both - how can i use the 10GB icloud free memory of my new iphone 5?

    I have two iphones, different telcos, i am using the same apple id for both - how can i use the 10GB icloud free memory of my new iphone 5?

    Thank you KiltedTim!
    YES, that is the free 5GB icloud memory for each apple ID. Can I not add the free 5Gb of my second Iphone to my original apple ID (5GB also) as I want to use one Apple ID name on both 2 Iphones? Is it necessary to have a different apple ID for the second Iphone to avail the free 5GB it carries with it?

  • Can I use the same icloud username and password for multiple phones?

    I have 6 iphones and wanted to use Apple Configurator to install the same apps on all 6 phones.  Some of the apps though, also require further installation by email.  Can I use the same iCloud username and password for all 6 phones to download the apps and also to configure email or do I need to create 6 different Apple IDs?

    If different people will be using these phones, you might be better off using the same Apple ID for the iTunes content...apps, music, etc. on each of these devices, but create different ID's for iCloud on each device. You can use one ID for the iTunes/App store, & a different ID for iCloud. That way, messages, notes, contacts, calendars, etc will be kept separate on each device.

  • Why can I not upgrade my iCloud storage on iOS

    Why can I not upgrade my iCloud storage on iOS

    Hard to say why that would be.  Suggest you contact iTunes store support for help with this: http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html.  They normally deal with iTunes and app store issues, but they should be able to tell you if there's an issue with your iTunes account that is preventing the purchase and how to correct it.

  • How can I use Yosemite for iCloud backup if it doesn't exist?

    There was an update to iCloud.  Now my documents on my MBP don't sync with my iPad correctly.  The computer tells me I need to update to OS X Yosemite.  How can I do that when Yosemite isn't scheduled to come out till the end of October?

    See:  OS X Beta Program FAQ
    And see this for work-arounds: Using iWork with iCloud Drive
    If you upgrade to iCloud Drive now:
    Your documents will keep up to date across devices with iOS 8, Macs with OS X Yosemite, PCs with iCloud for Windows 4.0, and iCloud.com. (OS X Yosemite will be available this fall.)
    Your documents will no longer keep up to date on devices with iOS 7 and Macs with OS X Mavericks or earlier.
    You’ll be able to use the iWork web apps on iCloud.com.
    You’ll be able to use the Share via iCloud feature on iOS 8 and iCloud.com. You’ll be able to use it on OS X Yosemite later this year.
    Documents you previously shared via iCloud will be accessible to collaborators.

  • Can I use the same iCloud account on more than one PC?

    I'm new to iCloud. I use Apple devices but a PC both at home and work. I'd like to have the same iCloud account on both PCs, but not sure if I can do this. Can anybody clarify please?
    Thank you.

    Yes, you can use the same iCloud account on more than one device. Thats actually the basic idea of iCloud, syncing and exchanging data of different devices without a cable. E.g. your address book on the iPhone is modified and you computer gets the changes via iCloud…

  • Can I use an existing iCloud email address on my mac?

    Hi everyone,
    I am wondering how I use an existing iCloud.com email address for mail on the iCloud.  Here is what I did:
    I bought a new Mac.  I signed in to iCloud with my apple ID and turned on the mail feature.  I created a new email address.
    Then, I signed out of the iCloud.  Stupid.
    When I logged back in to the iCloud, the mail was no longer synced.  I checked the box, and then it asked me to create a new email address again. Obviously, I do not want to create a new email address.  I would like to use the account that I just created.
    So, is there any way that I can use the account I created?  Or will I have to create a new one.
    Thanks,
    Katie

    OK, I'm not sure just what you have going on now. If [email protected] is both your Apple ID and your emergency email, I'm not sure how the [email protected] (or [email protected] if they are the same) address is related to it.
    Can you add the @icloud.com address to System Preferences > "Mail, Contacts & Calendars"? Not create a new one, just connect it with the "+" button and check Mail on the service list. Can you then read your iCloud email?

  • Can't use iWorks on iCloud Beta

    You can if your cellular plan allows it. Not sure how much data you mean by "quite a bit" but be aware that doing this can use up a lot of data in a hurry depending on what it is you do. The following has information on how to share your cellular iPhone data: iOS: Understanding Personal Hotspot - Apple Support
