Currently I have 'on my mac' mail boxes (in MAIL) and I have folders and mail boxes in iCloud.  How do I transport all the folders/mail boxes from 'on my mac' to iCloud?

Are the mailboxes you are talking about belonging to other email accounts? You can't get iCloud to receive mail from other email accounts. However if you have 'On My Mac' mailboxes which contain emails you can move these (or their contents) to iCloud easily enough. For each mailbox:
1.Create a new mailbox with the same or a suitable name on iCloud.
2. Open the mailbox you want to move.
3. Hit command-a to select all the messages.
4. Click and drag on any of the messages to move it to the new mailbox in the sidebar.
5. If there are a lot of messages, take the dog for a walk because it's going to take quite a long time as they all have to be uploaded
If you have a very large number of messages don't try to do them all at once.

  • HT1329 what about music that I have taken from a bought CD and put onto my ipod? I have already transfered music purchased through the itunes store, but how do I transfer all the stuff I took from my CDs?

    How can I transfer my ipod content from old pc (which cannot be connected to the internet anymore) to my new laptop (which is connected to the internet), Bearing in mind that:
    1, I already have itunes on the laptop and have successfully added to my laptop itunes library the few songs PURCHASED from itunes.
    2, My ipod (classic) and the itunes library on the pc also has a number of tunes that I have taken from my cd collection.
    3, when I connect my ipod to the laptop, it wants to sync to the laptop by keeping the PURCHASED items, and deleting the stuff I have put on from my CD collection.
    4, I cannot activate home sharing on the PC because it's not longer connected to the internet and cannot be re-connected to the internet.
    What do I do?

    Type "move iTunes Library" into the search bar and follow the instructions found there.
    There are multiple ways to move the iTunes library.  Hint:  None of them involve using an iOS device.

  • My PC broke down, and I bought a MacBook, how do I get all the stuff from my Iphone to Mac?

    My computer was completely destroyed, so I bought the new MacBook Air. But I used my old PC to sync everything with my iphone, info, calendar, notes, SMS, etc. How do I get everything out from the iPhone, so I can sync with iTunes without losing everything. And without spending money? Thnx for answers =)

    On your MBook launch iTunes. From the menu bar click Store / Authorize This Computer
    The only thing that may not sync is the SMS.

  • After hours of back-up, downloading and uploading...I am now updated with all the latest Mac software. However, I no longer have access to Excel and Word. Is there a way I can access my documents in either of those? Help, please.

    After hours of back-up, downloading and uploading...I am now updated with all the latest Mac software. However, I no longer have access to Excel and Word. Is there a way I can access my documents in either of those? Help, please.

    If you have older versions of excel and word that previously ran under the Rosetta emulator (allows PowerPC code to run on Intel system), they will no longer work with Lion.
    You can use the Apple programs Pages and Numbers to access the files. They can be bought and downloaded from the App store. NeoOffice is available at http://www.neooffice.org/neojava/en/index.php which has Lion support. OpenOffice doesn't talk to Lion support, it's at http://www.openoffice.org/

  • This is my 3rd macbook air and pro that kicks me out my yahoo email all the time and tells me my password is wrong when its not this been going on 2 years 3 different macs sometimes it dont do it for months after a software update

    Don't switch email providers. Switch to another email client on your Mac. It is not Yahoo. I have 3 Yahoo accounts and never have any problems getting or sending mail from/to those accounts. But I don't use the built in Mac Mail program. I use Thunderbird. I use thunderbird on both Mac OS X and Windows. Been using it for some time now with no problems getting my Yahoo mail, Google gmail mail or form my work email account.

    How can i transfer all my data 250 GB from external hard disk to MAC pro

    The simple answer is just connect the external hard drive and drag the files from there to wherever you want them to go. If you need to do something more specific, you'll have to provide more details.

  • How do I collected all the SMS from iPhone to Mac.

    How do I collected all the SMS from iPhone to Mac. Besides these paymentprograms. And I have no previous backup that I can get it from.

    This is amazing! Pick out everything I need from the iPhone. Just what I've been looking for a long time, but did not find anything I liked. So started to see if I could pick out one and one thing ... Definitely worth the money. Thank you Julian!
    PS. I fully support the payment thing, but theres allot of legal free programs aswell, so just wondered =)

  • TS4124 Hi, do you know how can I upload inelegible songs from itunes to Icloud. They are songs added from original CDs. Another question would be how can I transfer all the music I have in my Ipod Classic to my Itunes or ICloud as I want to back it up.

    Hi, do you know how can I upload inelegible songs from itunes to Icloud. They are songs added from original CDs. Another question would be how can I transfer all the music I have in my Ipod Classic to my Itunes or ICloud as I want to back it up.

    Depends on why it's ineligible.  If it's under 96 Kpbs, try right-clicking on the file and choosing Create AAC Version.  (If you don't see this option, go to iTunes>Preferences, click "Import Settings..." then choose "Import Using: AAC Encoder" and "Setting: iTunes Plus".)  Then rescan your library to see if this version will add to iTunes Match.  Or, after changing your import setting, just re-import the song to your iTunes library.
    If the song is over 200 MB you would have to reduce it's size to make it eligible.

  • I got a new iPhone yesterday. The sales people set it up to use. I want to have all the apps, pics, etc from my iPod to be on the new iPhone. How do I do this from my iCloud backup  of the iPod??

    Go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Erase All Content and Settings.  This will erase your device.  Then you will go through the setup screens again as you did when your device was new, and when given the option, select Restore from iCloud Backup.
    This link gives another overview of backup and restore:

    Be aware that photos should always be synced to a computer for archiving and that relying on a restore from an icloud backup may not return all (or any) of your photos.  Once on the computer, you can sync the photos to the new device...

    Exactly what the title says. On iMovie, how do I combine all the audio tracks so that Youtube chooses all of them?

    This forum is for mobile iMovie.
    As far as I've experienced iMovie iOS only exports stereo sound.

    Any suggestions on how to properly format and drag into this lttle guy would be great.
    1. go into FINDER at top then PREFERENCES  then GENERAL tab
    then check "hard disks" and "external disks"
    THIS WILL PUT A HD ICON ON YOUR DESKTOP YOU CAN OPEN AND DRAG AND DROP FILES TO
    Your new HD needs to be formatted for use on your Mac, so:
    2. TO FORMAT THE HD:
    Applications > utilities > disk utility
    go to DISK UTILITY and verify what it says your HD is formatted as under the "ERASE" tab
    see from mine below, HD on left selected,   .......ERASE tab highlighted.... and middle right roughly, it says "MAC OSX EXTENDED JOURNALED"
    thats the format,  but yours may be different of course
    bottom right ERASE tab lets you erase/ FORMAT your external  (remember this erases all data ON THE HD!)
    Format/erase it as: "MAC OSX EXTENDED JOURNALED"
    highlighted in RED   Erase.......format (middle) ...........erase ACTION to Erase/Format (bottom)
    Now you can drag and drop files

  • Hard drive on my mac died, installed new hard drive.  When I try to sync my phone for the first time, will the computer wipe all the songs, photos, ibooks from my phone?

    hard drive on my mac died, installed new hard drive.  When I try to sync my phone for the first time, will the computer wipe all the songs, photos, ibooks from my phone?

    Yes because that information is not located on the hard-drive of your new mac! If it is purchased content from the store, than this issue isn't as bad as it looks!
    Here is a link explaining how to get your previously purchased content back:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
    You also want to authorize your Apple ID account on the computer by following these instructions as well:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH1730
    Basically this link explains to go to the top left corner of your screen where you will see file, edit, view etc! Click on Store in that section and click on authorize this computer, also you want to make sure that the computer will not automatically sync by going to iTunes in the top left corner, just to the right of the apple symbol if iTunes is selected, and go to prefrences, and here you will see back up! Right under the back-ups has an option explaining to prevent devices from automatically syncing which is good cause you may be able to transfer your purchases from there which will put your content into the computer, and if that happens than we don't lose anything
    Hopefully I was of some help:)
