  • HT203796 I don't have the iCloud icon in "SYSTEM PREFERENCES" , any ideas?

    I could synchronize my iPad with my Mac Book Pro before replacing the hard drive and recoveing data from my Carbonite backup.
    Now I don't see the iCloud icon in SYSTEM PREFERENCES.
    Is this a common occurence?

    Welcome to the Apple Community alapan.
    Which operating system are you now using, OSX 10.6 and earlier do not have iCloud.

  • HT4597 iCloud icon in System preferences

    i can't see an iCloud icon in System preferences on my MAC. There is still the MobileMe icon, but shouldn't i see the iCloud icon?

    You should only see that if the computer is running Mac OS X 10.7.2 or newer.

  • There is no icloud icon in system preferences on my mac

    I'm trying to upgrade icloud storage on my mac because the "complimentary" storage I got when they switched from me.com to icloud is expiring.  The instructions are simple: open system preferences, click the icloud icon, change your options.  But I don't have an icloud icon: I've still got a me.com icon, which won't connect because it indicates a server error.  Anyone else have this problem?

    Open the Mac App Store and try purchasing Mountain Lion 10.8. If you get told it's incompatible, choose About this Mac from the Apple menu, check if the computer has at least a Core 2 Duo(not Core Duo) or better CPU with at least 2GB of RAM, and if it does, phone the online Apple Store and order a download code for Lion 10.7.

  • 10.7.5 on 2008 white Macbook, but there is no iCloud icon in System Preferences. how do i set up iCloud?

    my friend has a white 2008 Macbook running 10.7.5.  i'm trying to set up iCloud for her so she can sync Calendars etc. with her iPhone.  however, there is no icon for iCloud showing up in System Preferences; MobileMe shows up instead.  how can i set up iCloud on this machine?
    she does not want to install Mavericks etc. as this would slow her Macbook down to a crawl (if it even supports Mavericks...)
    many thanks!

    With Lion you  can boot into the Recovery volume (boot with the Command + R keys held down) and reinstall the system with little down time. OS X: About OS X Recovery

  • No icloud icone in system preference

    May be when I installed I answered no to some question on icloud , what I have to do to have it in my mcbook air?
    thanks marco

    I also have 10.6.8. I have been running ICloud for some time and loving it. I got a message yesterday stating that it has been since 4/17/12 since I backed up to ICloud last. Now it won't let me. I would really like to keep using ICloud. Are we going to have to buy the upgrade each time it comes out to be able to use ICloud? Thanks for any help.

    How can i get icloud on my mac when I don't have icloud icon to set it up even after updating the software?

    You won't find iCloud in Snow Leopard. Upgrade to Mountain Lion.

  • No icloud icon in system preferences

    - still have mobile me in Mountain Lion  How do I replace?

    The minimum requirement for iCloud is Lion 10.7.5 (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.
    To make 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:
    OS X v10.6.8 or later
    2GB of memory
    8GB of available space
    and the supported models are:
    iMac (Mid 2007 or newer)
    MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)
    MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)
    Xserve (Early 2009)
    MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)
    Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer)
    Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)
    It is available from the Mac App Store (in Applications).
    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

  • I have just bought an ipad mini with ret.display, I wish to link up my Mac Book Pro (10.6.8 system) to iCloud. In system preferences there is no iCloud icon to select. How do I get my MacBook updated to accept iCloud.

    I have just bought an ipad mini with ret.display, I wish to link up my MacBook Pro to icloud with my ipad, but my MacBook doesnt have an icloud icon in system preferences. How do I upgrade my MacBook to accept iCloud link.

    See -> Mavericks System Requirements.
    Most of us are running Mavericks with no problems - others seem to be having various problems (if you check out the Mavericks forum). But I would recommend that you have a current backup whichever way you go.

  • HT204053 I dont have iCloud in my System Preferences How do I get it?

    I have the old macbook and have tried setting up iCloud numerous times but have not been able to due to not being able to find the iCloud icon in system preferences.
    I have presumed that I cannot get iCloud because I'm running on MAC OS X 10.6.8 but when I've tried updating to the latest version (Mountain Lion) a pop up appears and tells me that it cannot be used on my Mac. Would this be due to me needing to download the versions before Mountain Lion in order from version 10.6.8 first or do I just have a fault on my Mac?
    Thanks in advance

    You need 10.7.2 or later for iCloud. If your MacBook is not compatible with Mountain Lion then you need to get Lion. Call Apple to order a Mac App Store download code for Lion.

  • Still have MobileMe icon (not iCloud) on my System Preferences,how can I install iCloud on Macbook pro?

    Still have MobileMe icon (not iCloud) on my System Preferences, how can I install iCloud on Macbook pro when directions say to click on iCloud icon in System Pref. ?

    Read the system requirements for iCloud.  It is not compatible with Snow Leopard which your system profile confirms you have. 

  • TS3989 New MacAir but  photostream does not work.  Message though everything is on. "In order to use Photo Stream, you have to be signed into your iCloud account in System Preferences." And,

    New computer but Photostream does not work.  I am signed into my account but get the following message:  In order to use Photo Stream, you have to be signed into your iCloud account in System Preferences.  I go to system preferences and then get a message that says that my account cannot be accessed.  However, I am using my icloud account for email and other items and it works fine.  Any thoughts?

    Are you getting this messages in iPhoto? If so try the following (again?):
    Log out of iCloud in the System/iCloud preference pane and disable Photo Stream in iPhoto's Photo Share preference pane.  Then log back in and re-enable, respectively.  That should jump start Photo Stream.
