    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.

  • HT5622 I can't find icloud on my system preferences?

    I cannot find Icloud on my system preferences.  How do I get it on my imac MAC osx 10.6.8

    You need to upgrade the computer to at least 10.7.2. Open the Mac App Store and try downloading Mavericks. If you get told it's incompatible, choose About this Mac from the Apple menu, check if the computer has at least a Xeon or Core 2 Duo(not Core Duo) CPU and 2GB of RAM, and if it does, click here and order a download code for Lion 10.7.
    Back up your data before upgrading. Mac OS X 10.7 and newer don't support PowerPC programs such as versions of Microsoft Office prior to 2008.

  • How come i don,t see icloud in my system preferences i have version 10.6.8

    how come i don,t see icloud in my system preferences i have version 10.6.8

    iCloud is only available with 10.7.5 or later. Upgrade your computer accordingly:
    Upgrading from Snow Leopard to Lion or Mountain Lion to Mavericks
    To upgrade to Mavericks you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8, Lion, or Mountain Lion installed. Purchase and download Mavericks (Free) from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. The file is quite large, over 5 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
         OS X Mavericks- System Requirements
           Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mavericks
             1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 7,1 or later
             2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) —
                 Model Identifier 5,1 or later
             3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 2,1 or later
             5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             7. Xserve (Early 2009) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
    To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
    Are my applications compatible?
             See App Compatibility Table — RoaringApps.
    Upgrading to Lion
    If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mavericks, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
    You can purchase Lion by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax.  It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
         Lion System Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
               or Xeon processor
           2. 2GB of memory
           3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
           4. 7GB of available space
           5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.

    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

  • My IMac don't have Icloud in the system preferences?

    I have a IMac I5 and don't have ICloud on the system preference. What do I do to install ICloud on my system preferences?

    I believe that icloud requires OS 10.7, your post indicates that you have 10.6.8.

  • I don't see iCloud on my system preferences I only see MobileMe

    If you're using a Mac, you have to update to OS X 10.7.5 or later in order to have iCloud in System Preferences.

  • HT5527 I don't have iCloud in my system preferences, I am using 10.6.8 how do I see how much storage I am using and how do I purchase more?

    I don't have iCloud in my system preferences, I am using 10.6.8 how do I see how much storage I am using and how do I purchase more?

    You can't check your usage on the iCloud website - you have to do this from the iCloud prefs pane, which you don't have. If you are only using it for email you would have to be storing an awful lot of messages to exceed 5GB. If you are concerned about this you can download some of them to your Mac and off iCloud.
    To do this simply create a folder under 'On My Mac', go to the iCloud mailbox, select some of the messages and drag them to the folder you created. Don't try to do too many at once (say more than 100) and allow time for them to download.
    If you haven't yet set Mail up to access iCloud, but are simply using the website, you can set it up as detailed here:
    Entering iCloud email settings manually in Snow Leopard or Leopard
    If you do decide to upgrade, the latest version of iPhoto is only £10.49, though MS Office is more of a problem. But you can go on as you are as long as your Mac holds out - Snow Leopard is a good solid system.

  • HT204053 After doing software updates on my 2007 Apple MacBook,  I couldn't find icloud in the system preferences.  It had "mobile me"  Can I still snc the mac book to my new Ipad air?

    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.

  • HT204053 How do i get icloud in my system preferences? Currently has mobile me.

    Ive done a system update and still no icloud in my system preferences, just mobile me.

    iCloud requires Lion (10.7.2) or greater, you never mentioned your version of OSX but, at a guess I would say that you have Snow Leopard (10.6)
    Upgrade to the current version of OSX, 10.8.2.

  • HT204053 I have snow lepard loaded but can't find icloud in my system 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

  • Why can't I find iCloud in my system preferences?

    I'm hoping to set my Macbook up on iCloud so I can have back up of my photos etc. When I follow the set up instructions I don' have an iCloud option in my system preferences. Help please!!!

    Your Mac needs to be running OS X 10.7.4 or later to have iCloud in System Preferences.
    What version is yours running?
    Note that iCloud does not backup photos from a Mac. The Photostream feature is a temporary storage for transferring photos between iOS devices and back to a Mac for download.
