I have a 2007 MacBook and a new Ipad Air. Is it possible to sync the two even though I don't have Icloud in my Macbook preferences? There is something called "Mobile Me".

Yes. You can use iTunes 11.
As noted, you need 10.7.5 to use iCloud though.

How do I see the other subscribers photos on a shared photo stream on iPad Air? I can see everyone on mac book pro, but not ipad. I can only see myself and the owner. Please help.
thanksHello there, missjanellez.
The following link from the online iCloud Help menu provides some practical information in regards to shared stream functionality:
Manage Subscribers to your shared streams.
http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mmc0cd7bfa
On an iOS 7 device
In the Photos app, tap Shared at the bottom of the screen, then tap Streams at the top of the screen.
Tap the shared stream whose subscribers you want to manage, then tap People.The Activity stream doesn’t have subscribers.
Do any of the following:
To invite more people, tap Invite People, enter email addresses or tap the Add button to select from your contacts, then tap Add.
To remove a subscriber, tap the subscriber, then tap Remove Subscriber.
To choose whether subscribers can add photos and videos, tap Subscribers Can Post.
If the subscriber list doesn’t include Invite People, you don’t own the shared stream.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,

I Have the same issue on a brand new iPad mini 2. My battery is only lasting up to 5 hours. I went on chat with Apple last night and they said my battery is fine and its a Safari issue. I'm literally losing 1% every 3-4 minutes. I tried recalibrating my battery, signing out of iCloud, shutting off all locations, turning off background app refresh, restoring network settings, restoring all, and finally restoring from iTunes with no luck. This is just awful. I got this iPad so I could use it on my long flight for a trip I have coming up, and unfortunately, it's not going to last that long, plus I'm concerned about how many times i will be recharging my battery because of this since battery's do have a life cycle dependent on the number of charges. This is frustrating and needs to be fixed ASAP and addressed by Apple.
By the way, Apple told me to bring my device to the Apple Store because it's still under warranty. That's great and all, but I'm going to waste my time if there is no fix for this issue.
Ok so you want Apple to address the problem, but yet you don't want to take it to them just in case they can't fix it? What if they can fix it? Complaining here certainly won't fix it. -
I synced about 50 books to my new ipad air 2. When I click any other books, the sync starts all over again for all books (it shows 51 books syncing). If I abort the sync, all of a sudden, all books are gone from my ipad. I don't know why. I did not have this problem on my old ipad...or before I upgraded to the latest version of iTunes. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Hi were you able to resolve yours?
I was very worried losing all my medical stuff on my iPad Air 2, plus i have nothing to use for the next day! So i have to try all the possible things i read on the internet!! And this worked on my part (Thank God, and thank you Google)
Perform a hard reboot
Hold down the Home button and Power button on your iPhone or iPad and keep holding them until you see the Apple logo. Once you do, you can let go. When your device boots back up, go ahead and check to see if the apps have started re-downloading. If they still appear to be stuck, continue on. -
I have updated my mac book pro and am trying to get icloud and the new lion version. The lion version will not download and my biggest problem is finding icloud on my system preference. Can anyone help me?
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
Connecting your MacBook Pro and your MacBook Air will be the fastest way, but you have to spend money on cables and adapters (also, your MacBook Pro doesn't support Thunderbolt).
As you have a Time Capsule, one thing you can do is to start your MacBook Pro and make a Time Machine backup. Then, turn on your MacBook Air and set it up. Setup Assistant will ask you to restore a backup, so select the option to restore the backup from the Time Capsule and be patient. This can take a lot of time if you have to migrate a lot of files -
i am unable to find icloud in my system preferences. What do i do? I don't have time to get to apple until next week and now im going to lose a bunch of data bc i can't update my icloud starage.
You say you have iOS6: you can perfectly well pay to extend your free storage as an ex-MobileMe subscriber.
If you wish to continue your current storage level, the instructions are here:

Scroll down to 'How do I purchase my current plan?' and expand the section applicable to iOS. -

Mail crashing after doing software update
The Mail application now constantly crashes since doing the Software Update and updating the iLife 06 components.
I am getting the following error message:
"Program received signal EXCBADACCESS, Could not access memory.
Reason: KERNINVALIDADDRESS at address: 0x7472756d
0x95895d64 in KWQFontFamily::KWQFontFamily ()"
Can someone please help me get Mail working again???
Thanks!!!Given everything you have done so far, it may be a more simple path to simply reinstall Safari and Mail. Have a look at this post for how to extract these applications from your installer DVD. In the post, I mention the combo updater for 10.4.4. Use the combo updater for 10.4.5. Hopefully, this resolves whatever is causing the crashes. Please post back with results.
"have never made a clone copy of my system "
Two years ago, I had one of the worst computing experiences. I lost all of my computer information from a hard disk failure. I did not have a backup. Learned the lesson quickly. I purchased an external HD for $150 (you can certainly do better with the price) and SuperDuper for $20. Made backing up the system very simple and quick (after the initial backup). Has been a huge time saver on a few occasions where I have needed to retrieve an file(s). Also, gives me peace of mind knowing I have options for data recovery. I encourage you to create a backup strategy.

After doing "software update" iMac wont start up !!!!?????
So the Software Update window poped up and resquested i do a softwareupdate. So I said fine... it was for iTunes. It downloaded the files... and asked to start up and when it when to start up it hasn't been able to start up. It just make steh sound, and stays blank...after a minute the fan come on very loud. Ok, what's up?
It's Sunday, so 800 line is closed. I tried the on-line tech support... but I got this computer in Nov 2005, so the basic tech support is done with. However, since this happened after one of their SUGGESTED Software Updates, i feel they should help me.
And no I haven't done any back up in over two weeks. So, I don't want to do a fresh install.
Any ideas on how I can get this thing started? or at least retrieve my old files and so I can take it to an Apple Store?I have found that the best way to avoid problems with updating your OS is to skip the delta (incremental) updates from software update and use the combo update that are offered in the "downloads" section of this website.
I follow the following procedure each and every time and have yet to have an OS update go bad.
1) Backup your data, preferably by cloning the hard drive to an external FireWire drive using a program like SuperDuper. If things go horribly wrong, you can then boot up from the external drive and restore everything back to the internal.
2) Test your clone to see if it boots your Mac. A clone is no good to you at all if it doesn't work.
3) Download, but do not apply the combo update.
4) Download a tool like OS X Cocktail and run all the scripts and then reboot.
5) Unplug all USB and FireWire devices - except the keyboard and mouse - from your Mac.
6) Apply the update and reboot.
7) Run all Cocktail scripts again.
That is the method I have used since getting my Mac - recommended to me by others - that has never failed me once. I have yet to see an OS installation or update - including a major one from Panther to Tiger - go bad and I do not expect it to be otherwise in the future. -
HT204053 I have snow lepard loaded but can't find icloud in my system preference
I have down loaded snow lepard but when i came to use i cloud could not find it in my systems preference
Mac OS X Snow Leopard isn't compatible with iCloud. iCloud needs OS X Lion or later.
First, check that your computer is compatible > http://www.apple.com/osx/specs If it's, open > Software Update, and install the latest version. After that, open the App Store and purchase Mountain Lion.
While it's being downloaded, make a backup of your files and check that your apps are supported > http://www.roaringapps.com
When the download finishes, the OS X Mountain Lion installer will appear, so follow the steps. After upgrading, open System Preferences > iCloud, and follow the steps. See > http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup -
Can't edit photos after upgrading ipad1 to 5.1.1
The edit button for photos is alive and well in iOS 5.1.1. There is no logical reason, why you would not have the edit button. When you open an individual picture in Photos on your iPad, the Edit button should be at the top on the right hand side. If you don't touch the picture for a few seconds all command buttons disappear until you touch the screen again.

After a software update, why doesn't Apple TV do Airplay?
I like Apple TV and have two of them on two TVs.
I updated the software on one Apple TV and now can't make Airplay work. I could before. It's not my Ipad, which will do Airplay with the other Apple TV. I can play music from iTunes on my computer through wifi and both Apple TVs.
Another strange thing: when I do "Network Test" on my TV and Apple TV, it says "Cannot connect to Apple". Yet it says it is connected to my wifi system and can play music from my computer. I get a download speed of 8 MBPS on my iPad in front of the TV.
Is there a way to reboot Apple TV or reload its software?
Would like some help.
RalphHey, guys, I have solved my own problem.
I unplugged the Apple TV (there is no off switch) and let it rest overnight. When I plugged it in again, it re-booted (I suppose) and, anyway, Airplay works now.
