HT204053 I skipped icloud setup when ipad was new.So I did it on my PC. How do I log into it now from my ipad?
I got my ipad2 a year ago. They either didn't have the cloud or it was new so I skipped setup. When it became
More common or understood, I got it on my PC because my mind was stuck back in iPod world where you
Had to have a home computer as your sync tool. So I setup icloud on my PC. I can see icloud in my ipad
Settings but I don't know how to login to it. When I type icloud.com the screen says install icloud... I click it and it
Just takes me to the apple site where it tells about setup, but there's no actual setup button just more reading.
I think I need to login to the icloud so that I can invite my family members to share my calendar.
I hope someone can help me. Thank you
Are you sure you set up an iCloud account on your PC? You can only do that on a Mac or an iOS device such as your iPad.
If you do already have an iCloud account, go to Settings>iCloud on your iPad and enter the ID you used to set up the iCloud account. If you don't have one, enter your Apple ID to create one. Then turn on your data syncing in Settings>iCloud and when prompted be sure to tap Merge to upload the data from your iPad to your iCloud account. This article gives an overview of this process: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/ios.html.
Also, you can't go to icloud.com on your iPad. You have to do that from your computer. There you can sign into your iCloud account and see your data.

How do I set up a 2nd email address in iCloud? When it was mobile me, I could have 3 addresses. Can I have 2 with iCloud?
You must be talking about email aliases. Log into icloud.com with a browser, go to the email page and click the cog wheel icon in the upper right. Go to preferences>accounts. YOu can define aliases there. Note that they must now be @icloud.com named emails.

i recently changed my wallpaper and when i was on safari the rainbow wheel popped up and i had to restart my computer, now theres no wallpaper it just a grey denim and when i try change the wallpaper only the tool bar changes not the background, help ?
Hi. When you were in the recovery drive doing permissions, did you try and run a repair of the boot drive? Did you try single user mode? Try these first and then go back and try to reinstall the operating system.When I say repair boot drive I don't mean permissions. There are both options in disk utilities.When you open disk utilities ,you will see in the left column two drives plus possibly a boot partition that look like an external driv. click on the second drive and in first aid use repair disk. If you still can't boot and it will not let you restore, you may have to do a clean install. http://support.apple.com/kb/PH18869?viewlocale=en_US

My four year old iMac is running much slower than when it was new. Does anyone have any suggestions on what I can do to "clean it up" and get it running like it used to?
What year, screen size, CPU speed and amount of RAM installed?
To find out info about your system,
Click on the Apple symbol in the upper left of the OS X main menu bar. A drop down menu appears.
Click About this Mac. A smaller popup window appears. This gives you basic info like what version of OS X your iMac is running, the speed of your iMac's CPU and how much RAM is installed.
Click on the button that says More Info. A larger window appears giving you a complete overview of your iMac's hardware specs.
Highlight all of this info and copy/paste all of this into another reply to this post, editing out your iMac's serial number before actually posting the reply.
This will tell us everything about your iMac so we may begin to help with your iMac issues.
How full is your Mac's hard drive?
Locate your iMac's hard drive icon on the OS X desktop. Click the icon once, then use the keyboard key combination Command-I. This will give you additonal info about your iMac's internal hard drive.
Post this info in your reply here, also.
Here are some general tips to keep your Mac's hard drive trim and slim as possible
You should never, EVER let a conputer hard drive get completely full, EVER!
With Macs and OS X, you shouldn't let the hard drive get below 15 GBs or less of free data space.
If it does, it's time for some hard drive housecleaning.
Follow some of my tips for cleaning out, deleting and archiving data from your Mac's internal hard drive.
Have you emptied your Mac's Trash icon in the Dock?
If you use iPhoto, iPhoto has its own trash that needs to be emptied, also.
If you store images in other locations other than iPhoto, then you will have to weed through these to determine what to archive and what to delete.
If you use Apple Mail app, Apple Mail also has its own trash area that needs to be emptied, too!
Delete any old or no longer needed emails and/or archive to disc, flash drives or external hard drive, older emails you want to save.
Look through your other Mailboxes and other Mail categories to see If there is other mail you can archive and/or delete.
STAY AWAY FROM DELETING ANY FILES FROM OS X SYSTEM FOLDER!
Look through your Documents folder and delete any type of old useless type files like "Read Me" type files.
Again, archive to disc, flash drives, ext. hard drives or delete any old documents you no longer use or immediately need.
Look in your Applications folder, if you have applications you haven't used in a long time, if the app doesn't have a dedicated uninstaller, then you can simply drag it into the OS X Trash icon. IF the application has an uninstaller app, then use it to completely delete the app from your Mac.
To find other large files, download an app called Omni Disk Sweeper.
Download an app called OnyX for your version of OS X.
When you install and launch it, let it do its initial automatic tests, then go to the cleaning and maintenance tabs and run the maintenance tabs that let OnyX clean out all web browser cache files, web browser histories, system cache files, delete old error log files.
Typically, iTunes and iPhoto libraries are the biggest users of HD space.
move these files/data off of your internal drive to the external hard drive and deleted off of the internal hard drive.
If you have any other large folders of personal data or projects, these should be archived or moved, also, to the optical discs, flash drives or external hard drive and then either archived to disc and/or deleted off your internal hard drive.
Good Luck! -
I have Lightroom 6 (not CC) on a Windows machine. I'm prompted to log into Creative Cloud when I restart my computer (I don't have, use, or pay for Creative Cloud), and then when I launch Lightroom, it tells me to use the application I have to log into my Adobe account...AGAIN! And then to further add insult to injury, I'm prompted to enter in the license number of my product. I've gone through this process a dozen times now...SCREAM!!!
Paulou12 what type of a Creative Cloud Membership do you have? You can find details on how to update Lightroom using the Creative Cloud Desktop application at Install and update apps - https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/install-apps.html.
Finally if you are in a managed environment then please work with your I.T. department to apply the update. -

a virus/trojan/malware is not cross platform so they are 100% made for a device
the day a virus/trojan/malware is discovered that works on any ios devices that are not jailbroken
you will find it all over the news and all posts in this forum would be about that
try login from the browser rather then the mail program and verify each account setting one by one to verify that they are correctly because an undocumented unwanted feature in the os of your phone could be the cause -

When I first got my iPad mini for Christmas I didn't think that I set up an iCloud account. When I go to iCloud in my settings it says that I have stuff in an iCloud account. How do I find out if I have an iCloud account and how would I get a new password or reset the password. Also, how do log into log into iCloud to see what I have in storage. Thanks.... if you need to contact me about this matter. I have an iPad mini.
<Email Edited by Host>You aren't addressing Apple here. This is a user forum and you shouldn't post personal information here such as your email address. I've asked the host to remove it.
As for your question, go to Settings>iCloud and write down the email address shown next to "Account". That's your iCloud ID. Then, if you can't remember the password for the ID, go here to reset it: http://support.apple.com/kb/HE36. Once you have the new password, you can go to icloud.com from your computer and sign into to see some of the data you are syncing with iCloud. If you are syncing your iPad with iCloud, this data is on your iPad too. You are syncing the data that you have set to On in Settings>iCloud. -
How do I log into my iCloud account on my iPad
Everytime I time to log into my iCloud on my iPad (within Safari) it delivers a screen asking me to setup iCloud again, it also invites me to download "find my iPhone" and "find my friends" apps which I already have on the iPad. My iCloud a/c is active for several weeks and I have purchased additional storage, I have no prob on my iMac or MB Pro, any ideas anyone? Obviously I am using - www.icloud.com...
Tom,
Winston's note above, is correct for accessing your iCloud account on an ipad. You cannot open the iCloud web site on your ipad, only on your iMac. However, you can eliminate your photo stream pics directly on your ipad. Open the ipad photo app. The top menu bar includes the "photo stream" tab where you can see those photos. Tap a photo so that it enlarges.... then on the top right is the "trash" icon, which allows you to delete one photo at a time. BTW, the quickest way to eliminate a number of photos in your Photo Stream collection is to use your iPhoto application on your iMac, which will then remove them from your ipad, too.

How can I log into my ICloud Mail in Safari on my daughter's iPad?
I can't seem to be able to use Safari to check my iCloud email on my daughter's iPad. When I type in www.icloud.com, I don't get an option to log in, I only get a message of how to set up iCloud on the iPad. Why can't I just get to the login screen?
iCloud.com cannot be accessed in a mobile browser. You have to identify the browser as a desktop version. You can do this in Safari by tapping in the url field and then pull down from the top of the favorites window to access Request Desktop Site.
Tap that to select the desktop version and then try again. It can be a little tricky to do this in Safari because of the way that you have to select the option for a desktop version, but it can be done. It is much easier in a browser like iCab Mobile, Mercury or Atomic.
