HT204053 I want to use my cloud on my new iPad, but I did not set it up at first. How can I activate now?

How can I activate my I cloud on my new iPad when I did not do it during set up?

Go to Settings>iCloud, sign in with your Apple ID to create your account, then turn on the data you want to sync with iCloud. Also turn on My Photo Stream and Photo Sharing in Settings>iCloud>Photos if you want to use photo stream, Find My iPhone and iCloud Backup in Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup if you want to use these.

Thank you everyone for reaching out and apologize for being unclear. Let me rephrase. There is NO MiFi.
I have an ipad3 and a PC
I am trying to connect the iPad3 to the PC for HotSpotting reason (the ability to use the internet on the PC)
Turning on HOT SPOT on the Apple ipad works GREAT when using it through WI-Fi and through Blue Tooth. But connecting it directly through the included iPad 3 USB Cable to the USB side of the PC does NOT work. I tried several PCs, and several Cables. Any other ideas

TS4062 my iphone 4 has mild water damage and will not sync with cable.I want to sync it over wifi to reload data I deleted during my troubleshooting, but I did not set up for wifi sync before the damage. Is there a way that this can be done now ?

I want to get it back by syncing over wifi, but I did not set up this capability before the damage occured.is there another way to initiate this feature ? I can tell that they are connecting in the cloud because an app I just downloaded on the phone is showing up in itunes on the computer.

You don't need to access your e-mail account, just get into your Apple account and change the e-mail address. If you can't access your Apple account, then you have a bigger issue to contend with.

The first time I connected my new My Passport portable hard drive to my MacBook Pro, the message asking if I want to use the drive to back up with Time Machine did not appear. I would like to set it up to do this. What would my next step be?

I just got a retro clock from brookstone and in setting it up it asked if I want to use current location which is incorrectly "Buffalo" but I do not know how to change it. Can anyone help me find where to change location?

As I understand it, Apple gets your location from the wi-fi router to which your iPod is connected. Location Services identifies the router and then checks for its location in Apple's database. If the router has been recently relocated or if there is a glitch in Apple's database, you will get an incorrect location. I don't think that there is anything you can do about it. You could send Apple a message about the error, but I doubt if they would do anything about it.

Hi! I sold my Iphone on ebay. The seller wants to connect the Iphone with his Apple ID, but it did not work because it says that the Iphone is already connected with another Apple ID. How can I get rid of this old connection? What do I have to do?

You cannot use it. You would have had to set it up on your ipod itself before you lost it. Since you did not "turn on the icloud", then you have not set up find my ipod.
Sorry.
There is no way to track your ipod.

I used the migration assistant to transfer files from my PC to my Mac but it recreated my user profile from the PC and I wanted to transfer the files to the new different user profile I've setup on the Mac. How can I transfer everything now?

I have an older Windows laptop and I am switching to a new MacBook Air. The main user on the Windows laptop is going to be different than the main user on the MacBook. I used the migration assistant to transfer data to the MacBook but it recreated the whole older profile on the new Mac when I just wanted to pull everything over into the new user profile I had already created on the new MacBook. How can I go about putting the data over into the new user profile and erasing the older other user profile it recreated? Would I erase the old user profile on the new Mac and start over with the migration assistant using some setting I missed that lets me pull the data over to the new main user on the MacBook? Or is there a way to rename the old user profile on the Mac to match what I want the new username/password to be somehow?
Or would it be best to back the data I really need from the old PC onto an external HD and then copy it over to the new Mac from the external HD?
Looking for advice on how to best go about this. On the old PC I had multiple profiles and it was awkward. On the new Mac I just want a single profile for the primary user and both users will just share the same user profile. I wasn't sure if the Migration Assistant only let you recreate entire profiles or if there was a way to just import data from the old PC's primary profile into the new Mac's new primary profile with some setting adjustment.
Data would be docs, pics, bookmarks, music. Fairly basic.
Thanks for any and all advice,

HT5622 Hi, I changed my apple id on my mainframe computer and purchased a book. The book is not showing up on my ipad or my iphone. I tried changing the settings on my ipad but it did not help. Can someone tell me what I should do. Cloud is activat

Hi, I chaned my apple id on my mainframe computer and imac and purchased a book. I cannot upload the book on either my ipad or my iphone. I tried changing the settings on the ipad, but still no book. I had no trouble accessing purchased items before chaning my id.

Hi grace132,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
The following articles should help you with this. If you change your Apple ID, you need to update those changes in other services that use it, like the iTunes Store.
You will also need to sign out of the iTunes Store on your devices and sign in with the Apple ID you used to make the purchases in order to access them.

I have used iCloud to backup my iPhone 4 but it did not restore all my photos in camera roll? How come? Is there a way to get it all back?

Please let me know the answer

An iOS device cannot be tracked without an internet connection. All you can do is physically look for it. Your camera roll photos are included in your iCloud backup. Should you be unable to find the phone, restoring the backup to another iPhone (or iPod touch) should recover them. Bear in mind that Apple will delete iCloud backups after 180 days of inactivity so be sure to access the backup before then.
You can also access photo stream photos from the last 30 days by setting up iCloud on your computer and enabling my photo stream (see https://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/).
