What system are you running? You need 10.7.5 or later in order to get iCloud. These two Apple documnets list what you need to utilize all of iClouds features.

Just converted from MobileMe to iCloud. But now my iCal does not sync with either my iPhone or iCloud. What have I missed?

Just converted from MobileMe to iCloud. But now my iCal does not sync to my iPhone or iCloud. What did I do wrong?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Is calendar syncing enabled on both the computer and the phone.
Are your calendars in your iCloud group and not in a on my mac group.
only calendars in the iCloud group will sync.

I now recieve duplicate email on my ipad 2 since I converted from MobileMe to iCloud

i now recieve duplicate email on my ipad 2 since I converted from MobileMe to iCloud

Thanks for starting the thread clisfromSLC.
I am facing the exact same problem with my brand new ipad2. The addition of a single contact post a successful sync, caused the app to crash. Restarting the app did not get the contacts back. Neither did restarting the ipad itself.
I dont want to rely on the ipad now until I have a patch or OS update that corrects this issue. If I add several contacts and suddenly lose all of them, it's not something i really look forward to.
Can someone please help? Thanks so much.

Appointments disappear in iCal after converting from MobileMe to iCloud

We recently converted to iCloud from Mobileme after upgrading to 10.7.2 and we have lost all of our appointments, both past and future in all calendars, both on the Macs and in iCloud.
When I first converted my machine, I had duplicate and triplicate entries, then after opening iCal for the third or fourth time, all entries dispapeared. My wife experienced the same thing this morning.
Checked the "Hide" boxes and all are unticked. If we add a new appointment, it will duplicate and/or disappear.
I have an iPhone and the calendar is empty on that also. My wife's Mac does not sync with an iPhone or any other device, just iCloud.
Any clues as to what is going on?

It took over an hour and three people, including second level support, but we have an answer.
Basically there is some confusion between the meta data being held on an external server (iCloud and/or Mobile Me) and the local machine. Here's the SBS for the solution:
In System Preferences, uncheck all syncing in iCloud (pay attention to messages)
Logout of iCloud
Logout of Mobile Me
Sever the Internet connection, killing the connection to the external servers
Restore the Calendar data stored in user/library/calendar via Time Machine or other backup source
Open iCal and export all calendars to a backup location (user/documents will do)
Reconnect the Internet connection
Open System Preferences > iCloud, log back in to iCloud and re-establish syncing for all desired options, including Calendar
Open iCal and import backed up data
Check calendar for accuracy in iCal and iCloud

HT204053 going from mobileme to icloud?

I have 10.5.8 on my macbook, I have done the updates for this computer and now when I sync iphone and ipad it won't sync as I don't have icloud on macbook only mobile me. Please help me. Shirl

If you're iPhone and iPad running iOS 6 with your MacBook using iTunes you'll need to be using iTunes 10.6.3 or higher. Go here: http://support.apple.com/downloads/#itunes, download the iTunes 10.6.3 for Mac installer (.dmg file) and save it on your desktop. Then close iTunes and double-click on the file to install iTunes 10.6.3. You should then be able to sync your devices with iTunes. However, if you have an iPhone 5 or iPad 4, you'll need iTunes 10.7, which requires OS X 10.6.8 or higher. You can purchase OS X 10.6 from the Apple online store here, then you can update to iTunes 10.7 and sync your devices.)
If you want to sync your Mac with iCloud this requires OS X 10.7.4 or later. You'll have to purchase and install OS X 10.6 from DVD from the Apple online store: http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard, and then upgrade to OS X Mountain Lion from the Mac App Store. After doing so you can set up iCloud syncing as shown here: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/mac.html.

HT204053 moving from mobileme to icloud - password has gone missing

Not certian why I have lost it in my outlook 2011 account
Thanks

Welcome to the Apple community.
You can reset your password using the iForgot.com site.

I seem to have 2 Apple IDs, one on my MacBook Pro and another on my devices. If I switch from MobileMe to iCloud on my Mac (under the apple logo) will my devices work and sync in iCloud. I have no idea how I go 2 IDs

Can I get rid of one ID? How do I do that?

one on my MacBook Pro
That's not an Apple ID. That is your admin account which you can view in System Preferencs > Accounts or Users & Groups.

Just use your current Apple ID when you setup your iCloud account that you use for your devices.

I have .me and .mac email accounts on my iPhone 4. I thought I had successfully transitioned from MobileMe to iCloud, but something must be wrong. iCloud seems to work fine on my computer and, with the exception of two email accounts, seems to be fine on

I have .me and .mac email accounts on my iPhone 4. I thought I had successfully transitioned from MobileMe to iCloud, but something must be wrong. iCloud seems to work fine on my computer and, with the exception of two email accounts, seems to be fine on my phone. Can/should I delete the accounts on my phone and start over? It is somewhat of a nuisance to have two email accounts and double the amount of emails. The only thing different about the two iCloud accounts is the email addresses. Thanks.

Well, seems I managed to unscrew this...I deleted my iCloud mail account and reinstalled it on my phone. That got rid of the duplicate .me/.mac email accounts.

I'm trying to migrate from mobileMe to iCloud but I have Snow Leopard (the latest version). It looks like Lion is no longer available because Mountain Lion comes out next month (July). The problem is mobileMe ends on June 30th. How can I migrate?

I'm trying to migrate from mobileMe to iCloud but I have Snow Leopard (the latest version). It looks like Lion is no longer available because Mountain Lion comes out next month (July). The problem is mobileMe ends on June 30th. How can I migrate?
My iphone and my ipad are compatible but when I try to go to icloud on my phone it says to do it on my computer.
I would like to have my calendar, contacts, etc.. all sync like they do now. Is there a way to upgrade before June 30th? If not, will the gap be an issue or will I just be able to buy mountain lion and sync everything?
Any suggestions?
Thank you!

You can buy Lion in the App Store now, but move to iCloud now. If you wait to Mountain Lion, you will only have Mail in Snow Leopard, so you will lose syncing unless you use Lion or Mountain Lion. It's up to you

Firstly, I note that your profile states that you are using OS X 10.5.8, in order to use iCloud on your computer you need OS X 10.7.2 or better.
Secondly, I have asked for your email address to be edited out. Post your address in an open thread is a sure way to be bombarded by unwanted email, remember it will be here long after you have resolved your problem, for automated detection software to find.
If you want people to contact you, enable others to see your email address in your profile.
Finally, are you sure that these additional addresses are aliases and not sub accounts on a family pack, aliases from MobileMe should transfer to an iCloud when you migrate.

Does that mean though that I have to change to the Lion, despite its shortcomings, in order for iCloud to work and not lose the current beneifts of synchronisation I have with Mobileme
Basically, yes.
You can migrate your MobileMe account to iCloud at http://me.com/move even with Snow Leopard - when asked to confirm that you have Lion on your Mac, just lie and say 'yes'.
If you have MobileMe mail set up to collect mail from external POP accounts you should cancel this before migrating, or you may find it still working in iCloud (where it isn't supposed to) and with no way of stopping it. You may find the MobileMe email settings will continue to work for a time after migrating but it will stop eventually so you should not rely on this. You should delete your MobileMe email account from Mail.
You can then set up Mail manually in Snow Leopard to access iCloud email; it's a slight fudge because the 'wizard' will attempt to connect you to MobileMe as soon as you enter an @me.com address. The process, which includes a workaround for this, is described here:
http://www.wilmut.webspace.virginmedia.com/notes/icloudmail.html
You may be able to sync your calendars to iCloud by means of an unsupported hack, but you cannot sync Contacts or Bookmarks and iCloud's other facilities will not work. This page outlines the situation when you migrate to iCloud, including a link to the calendar hack:

To get the full functions of iCloud you need Lion 10.7.2

HT4597 Am I missing a step from MobileMe to iCloud?

I am trying to switch from MobileMe to iCloud and have gone to me.com/move, but when I open up iCloud in System Preferences, it still tells me that I need to move my account to iCloud.

how do i activate it on my mac? i think this is the root of my problem. it still shows me this, although i activated my iCloud account long ago.

I have an 8 year old G5 / OS X 10.4.11, what kind of problems will I have now switching from Mobileme to iCloud?

You can migrate to iCloud, but the only thing you will be able to do is access email, and you will have toi set Mail up manually to do this:
Entering iCloud email settings manually in Tiger
This is worth doing to maintain your email address, but you won't be able to sync calendars, contacts or bookmarks. Your calendars and contacts will be removed from MobileMe (though not from your Mac) and won't appear on the iCloud website.
