HT201317 I have no idea how to use the iCloud, it appears to be turned on but now what?

is there a sign on page for icloud?

Turn on the data you want to sync with iCloud in Settings>iCloud.  After doing this, some of this data will appear on icloud.com when you check from your computer, and it will sync with other devices and computers sharing the account.  You can also turn on Find My iPad to locate your iPad and secure it if it is ever lost/stolen, iCloud backup to automatically back it up to iCloud daily, and photo stream if you want to stream photos taken on your iPad to your other devices, and share them with others.

  • I have no idea how to use the new "messages" instead of ichat

    i have recently got my first macbook. it isnt the first time i used one.  my friend has the macbook pro as well.  she has the "ichat" app for connecting with her friends.  but i have the "messages" app and i have no idea how to use it.. i cant find the buddy list to add friends... i dont know how to sign in to my account.. and when i try to send a message to someones id it says they arnt registered with ichat.. i have no idea what to do or where to begin!

    Hi Alexaaa,
    Open the Messages app and under the Messages menu go to Preferences>Accounts and set up your account using your AppleID and password.
    Once you have your account set up, then open the messages window. Next to the Search window you will see a little square with a pencil in it, click on that to start a new message. The cursor will be in the "To" line, and at the end of that line you will see a ". Click on that, and your contacts list will come up. Find the contact you want to send a message to, and select either their email or their phone number to send a message. Type in your message in the little message window at the bottom and press Enter to send.
    Hope this helps! Let us know if you have any other questions!
    Cheers,

    Go to Settings>General>Usage. How much space does it show you have?
    If you connect your phone to your computer, what does iTunes say is on your phone? Do you see a large amount of "Other"? If so, you may have a corrupted database. You'll need to sync your phone then restore it as NEW (not from back up) then re-sync your data).

    10.4.11 is as far as you can go with Tiger.  You have to pay for the next update.  It is not available via Software Update.  Depending on which Mac you have, it can be Leopard, Snow Leopard, or Lion.

    Have you logged in and reviewed your account and entered payment details ? Unless the instructions on this page are followed when creating an account : Create an iTunes Store, App Store, or iBooks Store account without a credit card or other payment method - Apple Suppor…
    then credit card details will need to be entered before the account can be used to download any item from the store.
    You could see if this post by mountaingoatgirl lets you review your account without needing to enter credit card details : https://discussions.apple.com/message/24303054#24303054
    If not then you will either have to enter card details (you should be able to remove them after entering them), or create a new account (using the instructions on the above link).

    I have an iPhone 5 and lately the battery won't last, it turns off at 20%, what could it be? I have to recharge 3 times per day

    I heard from an apple specilist once that it is good to let your iPhone die atleast once a month. My iPhone 5 battery lasts all day if I charge it before I go to bed. Try not using your iPhone when it is charging. If you don't notice a difference soon, consult with the apple store

  • Firefox crashed before I could load my previous session - how may I restore it? I have backed up relevant session files, but have no idea how to use them.

    I was using Firefox shortly before deciding to restore my previous session (100+ tabs!), but the browser froze and went blank with the "Not Responding" label on top. This happened to me before, and I decided to just quit the session. I knew that I would lose the session I wanted, but I backed up the important session files found in the Mozilla directory (or at least whatever has "session" and "restore" in its name) while the browser was stuck (before quitting).
    What I'd like to understand is HOW TO USE these files to get my session back. I've tried replacing the session files with the back-up copies to no avail. Once long ago I managed to recover a session successfully, but with Firefox constantly changing, I may have lost touch with this.
    I use Firefox 34 and Windows 8.1, but I'll need others' help in identifying the session backup/restore files I need to use from the ones I backed up.
    I believe that the "recovery.bak" is vital, because it contains the tab/page names I was viewing.
    I would greatly appreciate whoever would help me in this, especially if they can teach me the proper methods to follow if this ever happens again (which most likely will!)

  • Do you have an idea how to improve the performance ?

    Hi All,
    Greeting,
    I'm doing SEM IP. Regarding the performance, do you have some thought about this ?
    So I have planning report for project report . As we know, if we forecast against project, means the date itself is the life of the project itself.
    It means it could be more than 10 years (forecast period) and 10 years (actual period). Currently I segregate between actual and forecast into different info cube .
    But the performance of the planning report is slow now. Do you have an idea about this how to increase the performance. The performance I mentioned here is when we're going to the report (after putting in the value in the selection screen).
    The other question, at this moment, I have a multiprovider than this multi provider consist 2 info cubes ( actual and forecast ). Than my aggregation is sitting on top of that multi-provider .
    My question whether that's approach correct or not ? Or do we have to create 1 aggregate (only for forecast), than I have multi-provider consisting forecasting aggregation and actual cube .
    than my query will sit on top of that multi-provider ?
    Which one is better ??
    Thanks a lot all,
    really need your help,

    Hi,
       For the performance tuning, you can consider any of the following three methods,
    1. Indices
    With an increasing number of data records in the InfoCube, not only the load but also the query performance can be reduced. This is attributed to the increasing demands on the system for maintaining indexes. The indexes that are created in the fact table for each dimension allow you to easily find and select the data.
    2. Partitioning
    By using partitioning you can split up the whole dataset for an InfoCube into several, smaller, physically independent and redundancy-free units. Thanks to this separation, performance is increased when reporting, or also when deleting data from the InfoCube.
    3. Aggregates 
    Aggregates make it possible to access InfoCube data quickly in Reporting. Aggregates serve, in a similar way to database indexes, to improve performance.
    4. Compressing the Infocube
    Infocube compression means aggregation of the data ignoring the request idu2019s. After compression, the system need not perform aggregation using the request ID every time you execute a query.
    And I feel that as per your scenario, you need to do first compress the data based on user requirements and have only the required data in the infocube.
    And for the approach regarding the Aggregation level design, choosing between the two approaches depends on the user requirements. For example,
    If you have aggregation level created on top of multiprovider containing actual and forecast cube, in your report (created on top of aggregation level) you can view the key figure values present in both the cubes, which is not possible in the other approach.
    So this approach is suited if your requirement is to view the records from both the cubes in your report (Comparing planning and actual values).
    The second approach is used if your requirement is only to report on planning forecast cube.
    Hopes this solves your issue.
    Regards,
    Balajee

  • I have no idea how to install the Mac OS X 10.6.1. update disc sent to me by Apple.

    I was on the phone with Apple Support telling them about the MacBook I bought used for my daughter.  I wanted to reset it to "factory settings" and clear everything off of it. I thought I was doing everything that I supposed to be doing but when it came to connecting to the Apple Store to restore the OS I kept getting the error message that the product was temporary unavailable.  They didn't really have an answer for me so they sent me the disc. I have the disc but have no idea who to access it since I don't have what normally would be my OS screen.  I can see it in Disk Utility, but have no idea what to do from this point.
    My Macbook Model is A1181.

    Boot from the Snow Leopard DVD:
    Clean Install of Snow Leopard
         1. Boot the computer using the Snow Leopard Installer Disc or the Disc 1 that came
             with your computer.  Insert the disc into the optical drive and restart the computer.
             After the chime press and hold down the  "C" key.  Release the key when you see
             a small spinning gear appear below the dark gray Apple logo.
         2. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue
             button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
             After DU loads select the hard drive entry from the left side list (mfgr.'s ID and drive
             size.)  Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.  Set the number of
             partitions to one (1) from the Partitions drop down menu, click on Options button
             and select GUID, click on OK, then set the format type to MacOS Extended
             (Journaled, if supported), then click on the Apply button.
         3. When the formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed
             with the OS X installation and follow the directions included with the installer.
         4. When the installation has completed your computer will Restart into the Setup
             Assistant. After you finish Setup Assistant will complete the installation after which
             you will be running a fresh install of OS X.  You can now begin the update process
             by opening Software Update and installing all recommended updates to bring your
             installation current.
    Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.
