I'm trying to upgrade my icloud storage but don't have an icloud icon in my settings...only a mobileme icon...What should I do?

iCloud requires OS X Lion (10.7.2) or higher.  You will need to upgrade to either Lion or Mountain Lion in order to set up iCloud on your Mac.  First check to see if your system meets the system requirements to upgrade.
Lion system requirements 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
Mountain Lion system requirements are shown here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5444.
If you can run Mountain Lion, you can purchase an upgrade from the Mac App Store.  If you can only run Lion, contact the online store in your country and purchase a download code to download it from the Mac App Store.
After upgrading, you will find iCloud in System Preferences>iCloud on your Mac, and can set it up as explained here: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/mac.html.
Before upgrading, you may want to check the compatibility of your existing programs by checking here: http://roaringapps.com/apps:table.

  • HT204264 Do my photos still backup in my iCloud if I don't have my iCloud library beta on?

    Do my photos still backup in my iCloud if I don't have my iCloud library beta on?

    They are included in an iCloud backup if you don't have iCloud Photo Library turned on. See the following quote from the section of what is included in an iCloud backup from iCloud: iCloud storage and backup overview
    Photos and videos on your iOS devices, unless you turn on iCloud Photo Library beta on your iOS 8.1 device. If you turn on iCloud Photo Library beta, your photos and videos are already stored in iCloud, so they aren’t included in your iCloud Backup.
    Be aware that the contents of an iCloud backup are not viewable at iCloud.com and are only usable when doing a full restore to an iOS device or when transferring to a new iOS device. Because of that I also import my photos to a computer for safekeeping. Import photos and videos from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to your Mac or Windows PC - Apple Support

  • I have a dumb phone I am trying to update my operating system but don't have the software update under general setting. I've tried to do this on line but nothing! Help

    I have a dumb phone not a smart phone. It doesn't have the software update under general setting. I tried to upgrade online but nothing! Currently, I cannot get many apps because I need the upgrade. Help

    That's because you don't have iOS 5 or higher. See the following:
    Connect the phone to your computer. Open iTunes. Select your phone from the sidebar under Devices. Click on the Summary tab in the main window. Click on the Update button.

  • Please tell me what I should upgrade to be able to play Guitar Hero III

    Hello I have an April 2006 13' Macbook.
    It is a 2Ghz, 1GB 667 Mhz.
    Ive got an Intel GMA 950 with 64MB VRAM.
    I know I'm not anywhere near where i need to be but please, is there anything i can do?
    THank you

    Hi ckyo01!
    Unfortunately, there's little/nothing to do that will allow you to "upgrade" your machine to meet the minimum system requirements of Guitar Hero III. That game does not support shared/virtual graphics processors in laptops, which the MacBook is configured with from the factory.

  • I logged on to my account on apple and tryed to reset my security questions but i dont have the i forgot my security question send it to this email under my question and i dont know what to do

    help me

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions. To do this, click here and pick a method; if that page doesn't list one for your country or you're unable to call, fill out and submit this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts   Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

  • Uh oh.  I installed MacKeeper before I saw the warning posts. I purchased the $38.00 version, but if what you all say is true,I want to get rid of it. So I lose $38.00. I'm a computer idiot. Please tell me what I should do.    Please tell me what

    Uh oh.  I installed MacKeeper before I saw all of your warning posts. I only purchased the basic program--it was on sale for $38. and change.  I'd rather be safe than sorry, so I'll go ahead and take a loss on the 38 bucks. But I need someone to tell me how to get rid of it (I am a computer moron, so please use very simple language, like you would for a kindergartner).  Many thanks.

    Removal is simple.
    If you used MacKeeper to encrypt any files, un-encrypt them first.
    Quit MacKeeper.
    Drag the MacKeeper icon from the Applications folder (not the Dock) to the Trash.
    You will see this dialog box:
    Type your Password and click OK.
    You will then see this dialog box:
    You do not need to provide a reason.
    Click the "Uninstall MacKeeper" button. You will need to authenticate again (first screenshot).
    That's all there is to it. All of MacKeeper's pieces will be gone, except for a log file that is inert and can be ignored.

  • HT1864 Can I still use iCloud if I don't have Vista or Windows 7?  I have XP.

    Can I still use iCloud if I don't have Vista or Windows 7?  I only have XP on my computer.

    Yes, using iCloud does not require installing anything on your computer.
    If you want to use the features of iCloud that do involve loading the iCloud Control Panel on the computer then you will need to either upgrade the OS on the computer or buy a new computer.

  • URGENT. Please tell me what the inside of a G3 should look like

    Hello, I just received an iMac G3 (600mhz) in the mail. Something happened to it which it causing a weird high pitched sound upon startup. It won't continue into the logon screen. I will be opening this G3 up in a few hours. Please tell me what the insides should look like -- what the pheriphials should be like, and connected to -- whatever else is relavant, such as the logic board. What should everything look like? I might need to fix something. I'm stressed and don't have time for questions. Please tell me what I should inspect. Thanks!

    You may search online to see if anyone formerly in the service business has older .pdf manuals for sale, maybe along with any older parts or vintage tools. That's a long shot. A local user group of vintage computer owners may also have some leads. A few with libraries of older tech database may have pdfs on DVDs.

    Tried to upgrade os4 to os7 but could not due to "find my iphone" still turned on. 
    Could not turn it off at that stage so set up as new iphone.  Now icloud will only accept past id email address and password which i no longer have,
    but itunes on my phone has my correct current id and password.  I need to restore my back up from itunes, i did not use icloud.
    Any help please. 
    I did try yesterday but did not realise at that time that itunes had correct apple id.  Hopefully this is a good thing!

    Thank you for your prompt reply.
    I have looked at icloud.com/find numerous times and my iPad is not showing at all (see picture below). As I said I did turn off 'Find My iPhone' on my iPad and then erase all settings and data before taking it to the repair centre.
    The gentleman at the repair centre said that the device won't restore because "Apple thinks that 'Find My iPhone' is still turned on" (I'm repeating what he said).

    It still didn't work...
    Within this commonfiles\apple folder, there is only one folder, labeled "Internet Services." Within this folder, there are 6 folders, labeled:
    APLZOD.resources
    BookmarkDAV_client.resources
    CoreDAV.resources
    iCloud.resources
    iCloudServices.resources
    ShellStreams.resources
    Within all but CoreDAV and BookmarkDAV_client, there are multiple different folders, all labeled starting with a two letter (acronym I believe, for different languages) then .lproj (for example, a folder is labeled "ar.lproj".
    In each of the folders of APLZOD.resources, there is a file labeled "APLZODlocalized.dll."
    In all of the folders containing the multiple .lproj folders, there are likewise "name"localized.dll files contained.
    In the BookmarkDAV_client and Core DAV folders, they each contain only one file, "Info.plist"
    I attempted to delete all of these files, and still, the FileAssassin could not delete them. I unlocked one of them for instance, and I tried to delete the file myself (thru windows explorer and just clicking delete), and I still had the same issue of coming eventually to the window requesting me to "try again" to have permission.
    What can I do?? I'd like to avoid Unlocker, but if it really is a reliable and SAFE program, and someone knows a SAFE place to download it from, I'd appreciate it very much so!!
    thanks!!

    You have to respond to the verification email that Apple should have sent to you by clicking the Verify Now link.  Make sure you check the email address you used to set up your iCloud account.  This would not normally be an @icloud.com email address.  Also make sure you check the spam/junk folder as well as the inbox.  If it isn't there, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage your Apple ID, sign in, click on Name, ID and Email addresses on the left, then to the right click Resend under your Primary Email Address to resend the verification email.
