None of the devices will take precedent over another, your storage space will fill up in which ever order the devices sync with it/write to it.

HT204053 iCloud set-up in plain english?

I have an iMac, Macbook Pro and an iPhone 4.
I want to sync my mac mail, address book & a shared folder on all 3.
I was in the Apple store the other day getting a replacement iphone. The assistant setup an iCloud account using my company email address then backed up my old phone (email & contacts) and downloaded onto my new one before replacing.
I want to use my iMac as my primary machine & sync all 3 devices so I dont have 3 different copies of mail anymore.
Can anyone help me to setup this simple yet confusing service in plain english???
Thanks in advance.

Welcome to the Apple community.
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.
You will need to set up iCloud on all your other devices (except your phone, which was done at the store). You can do this by using the Apple ID and password, that the person in the store used to create your account and entering them at system preferences >iCloud on your Mac and settings >iCloud on your iOS devices. In each case select the services you want to use from iCloud in the iCloud settings.

Hello nikhilb05,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
I have provided a couple of articles for you to provide information on administering your Apple ID and changing your password:

I had a MobileMe account before... after upgrading to iOS 5, should I keep my account info under iCloud (settings) AND under mail, contacts and calendars (in Settings as well) or only keep the info under the new iCloud setting section?

That's not the correct port. It should be 993 for incoming.
If you signed into iCloud from the System Preferences, it should automatically create the iCloud account for you in Mail. Sounds like it is an account you already had set up for MMe in Mail.
Open Mail preferences, open the Accounts tab, disable that account in the advanced pane.
Open Sys Prefs, open the iCloud tab, and sign out of iCloud. Then sign back in and see if a new iCloud account is automatically created.

How do i remove my old Apple Id from iPhone's iCloud setting which does not exist anymore

Purchased new iphone 5s, installed with itunes restoring backup from iphone 4 (which was too old a backup). It restored an old apple id (which i do not use anymore) in the iCloud settings while having my new Apple Id in the Itunes & App Store. I cannot turn off the iCloud setting due to old AppleId popping up - which does not exist.. How do i remove the old Apple Id from icloud setting on the phone.
I cannot erase the phone as it asks for the password for the old Apple Id. And i cannot do the restore again (after i made a recent back up my iphone 4) as itunes asks me to turn off Find my phone.

The Apple ID exists. The email address you used to create it may not, but the Apple ID does. Call AppleCare and ask to speak to someone in account security.

I tried to sign in for icloud set up with my apple id, i received a message that your account limit has reached, how to get icloud access then?

i tried to sign in for icloud set up for the first time with my apple ID, But unable to get through as i receive a message saying your account limit is reached, then how to proceed.

I can't say why it should be doing this. If it persists then your only options are to set it up on another Mac or iOS device if you can (then you will be able to sign into it), or failing that to contact Support - though I don't know how helpful they are likely to be.
To contact iCloud Support: if you currently happen to have AppleCare, either because you recently bought Apple hardware or have paid to extend the inititial period, you can contact them here:
http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/
You will need the serial number of the covered hardware.
If you are not covered by AppleCare, then - in common with other free email services - there is no free support and you may be asked to pay a fee.

How do you get calendar changes on your phone appear on your computer? I already changed it in my icloud setting but it is not working.

The calndar events i change on my iphone 4s do not appear on the calendar in my computer! I changed the icloud setting on my computer and phone but still nothing happens. When I do an event change in my computer, it shows on my phone though.

How do you access mail on your computer, Outlook? Also, what is the default mail account on the iPhone?

You cannot connect to iCloud.com from an iOS device, you can only connect from a computer. You can access any of the data in your iCloud account from the appropriate apps on your device (mail, contacts, calendars etc)

I'm experiencing a log in issue on my MBA since installing ML this morning. However, I am able to sign into iCloud via my iPhone, iPad and on the web without issue. This only occurs when I attempt to go into iCloud setting in system pref's... I have attempted to change my password and also reloaded iCloud. Neither of these actions resolved the issue. When I open iCloud preferences in system preferences on my Mac, it prompts me to enter my appleID and password. Once entered, it just hangs...
What exactly did you do (verified your apple ID/iCloud but in a very difficult way)?
Thanks!

Hi,
In the Finder use the Go Menu whilst holding down the ALT key.
Select the Library that appears when you do this.
Navigate to Containers/com.apple.soagent/Data/Library/Preferences
You will notice that many of the items are Aliases (to the Originals in ~/Library/Preferences).
But there are exceptions.
Delete (Drag to Trash) the com.apple.soagent.plist and com.apple.messageshelper.AccountInfoController.plist
Restart the Mac (I have not worked out is SOAgent launches when the Mac does).
Restart Messages.
If this does not work navigate to ~/Library/Preferences
In here find and Delete com.apple.ids.service.com.apple.madrid.plist
This will need a Restart of the app.
You will be asked Again for your Apple ID

I own a new iPad and a MacBook Pro. An Apple store assistant changed my Apple ID on my iPad, and the new ID showed up in the iCloud setting on the iPad. However on my Mac laptop the iCloud still shows my old ID, so there is no synching of documents going on between the iPad and the laptop. What do I do?

On the mac's system preferences: click the iCloud icon, then "sign out" button. After, you can enter the new ID.

Is it possible to download my purchase history? I don't have icloud set up, so have no way to get to my 300 odd songs

No. You can view it, and save or print it a page at a time as screenshots. But unlike Amazon MP3, the iTunes Store does not provide a way to download your Purchase History all at once.
Some folks on this forum have said that upon request to iTunes Customer Service they will email you the complete list, but others have said they were refused. Worth a try I suppose.

HT204053 iCloud setup

I used my gmail address (for some reason) when I downloaded iCloud and when I went to settings to set up iCloud it showed that it is not verified. I eventually managed to add my gmail address to my Apple account, but it still won't let me get past the notification that I should check my email. I've done this 10 times, and my gmail account has been verified. I even downloaded the paid version of iCloud using my primary email but it still shows my gmail account on setup and I can't get iCloud set up. Can somebody please assist?
