HT204053 The cloud icon does not appear in my macs system preferences.

The cloud icon does not appear in my MacBookPro system preferences.  Any help?

The minimum requirement for iCloud is Lion 10.7.2 (Mountain Lion preferred): the iCloud Preference Pane does not appear on earlier systems - the MobileMe pane appears on Lion and earlier but is non non-functional - you cannot now open or access a MobileMe account.
To make use of iCloud you will have to upgrade your Mac to Lion or Mountain Lion, provided it meets the requirements.
The requirements for Lion are:
Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
2GB of memory
OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
7GB of available space
To purchase it you will have to ring Apple at the number given at the bottom left of this page.
The requirements for Mountain Lion are listed here:
http://www.apple.com/osx/specs/
It is available from the Mac App Store (in Applications). (If you are currently pre-Snow Leopard you will have to upgrade to that to access the Mac App Store: it's available in the online Apple Store.)
You should be aware that PPC programs (such as AppleWorks) will not run on Lion or above; and some other applications may not be compatible - there is a useful compatibility checklist at http://roaringapps.com/apps:table

    I downloaded AirPlayIt yesterday from the app store.  It was on my iPad yesterday.  Today, however, the app icon does not appear on my home screen.  When I go into apps it is there but it doesn't have an "Open" choice.  There is only a cloud with an arrow pointing down.  When I click on the app it pops up but there is no open button.  How can I remove it?  Tapping it won't work as it isn't on my home screen.

    You'll have to contact the developer about this. Apple doesn't make this app;

    To check your model go to About This Mac (by clicking on the Apple icon, top left) and then select more info. If you wish to use mirroring you will need one from 2011 or later running OSX 10.8 or later. The alternative would be to use 3rd party software like Airparrot.

    I am trying to set up iCloud on my iMac and the iCloud icon does not appear in system preferences under "internet & wireless". How do I proceed. I have already set it up on my iPad & iPhone.

    The minimum requirement for iCloud is Lion 10.7.5 (Mavericks preferred): the iCloud Preference Pane does not appear on earlier systems - the MobileMe pane appears on Lion and earlier but is now non-functional - you cannot now open or access a MobileMe account.

    Lion is available in the Online Apple Store ($19.99). Mountain Lion (10.8.x) is also available there at the same price (though it's reported to have been removed from sale in some countries so may well cease to be available generally) but there seems little point as the system requirements are the same for Mavericks (10.9.x) - which is free - unless you need to run specific software which will run on Mountain Lion only.
    The requirements for Mountain Lion and Mavericks are:
    OS X v10.6.8 or later
    2GB of memory
    8GB of available space
      and the supported models are:
    iMac (Mid 2007 or newer)
    MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)
    MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)
    Xserve (Early 2009)
    MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)
    Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer)
    Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)

  • I have turned on home sharing but the house icon does not appear. Have read a blog that says it is not set up correctly am i missing something here?

    I had home tuning running fine on my mac. Since introducing apple tv the home sharing house icon is missing and will not allow me to drag and drop from home sharing. I have read other blogs that say if the house icon does not appear then home sharing is not set up correctly. Any suggestions as it seems to be running fine except for letting me move files.

    see if anything in this support article helps.

  • The site icon does not appear in Firefox

    I am developing a site (http://www.londonglamourphotoshoot.co.uk/index.html) but the site icon (the little icon that appears next to the site title in the tab label) does not appear in Firefox. It appears in Internet Explorer and Chrome, but for some reason, Firefox ignores it while it shows the icons of other sites perfectly.
    If I show the source code of the page and then click in the hiperlink of the icon, then the icon loads as an image, so it is the correct link (and as I said, IE and Chrome display it)
    Here is the line Muse generates:
    <link rel="shortcut icon" href="images/favicon.ico?4188924898"/>
    (I don't know the reason of the question mark and the number after the icon URL, but this is as Muse writes it)
    I load the icon in the properties window of the master page only so it is inherited by all other pages of the site.

    I doubt it. The filename of the original file is just favicon.png and it was loaded in the generic site properties (not in a master page or in the individual pages). The question mark and number are part of the code generation process by Muse. What's more, Windows would not allow me to name a file with a question mark, it is a forbidden character, but in an URL it means additional arguments or something like that if I'm not mistaken. .

  • When i plug my iphone in to my desktop computer, the iphone icon does NOT appear.....how do i get it to appear so i can synch my stuff?

    When I plug my iphone 5s into my desktop computer, the iphone icon which you click on to to wnable you to synch your device with itunes does not appear. Its like being signed into itunes without a device connected.
    If you look in the top left hand corner, this is where the icon should appear apparently, but as you can see, on my account it just isnt appearing! my usb cable is new from an Apple store and isnt faulty. The desktop computer is also new.

    What happens if you go to iTunes > File > Devices, do you get the option to Sync iPhone?
    You could try a reinstall of iTunes. OS X Yosemite: Reinstall apps that came with your Mac

    Adding my fix to this thread from: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3190067?start=15&tstart=0
    I just got SAM working on my iMac running Lion.
    Use Pacifist to force an install of JavaForMacOSX10.6Update5.pkg (http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1360) then install the JavaForMacOSX10.7.dmg (http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1421) on top of that. Copy the Safari 5.0.5 from a SL machine or use Pacifist to extract the app.
    Still does not run under 5.1 but at least I have a working solution. Let me know if anyone needs help.

  • FaceTime: I have just bought an ipod touch 32 gb (4th generation); however, the facetime icon does not appear in my screen or settings, there is no simcard so it has nothing to do with the carrier. Any suggestions?

    IPod touch 4th generation..Facetime.

    Well yes your close. I got it from Egypt and i am in Egypt now, but vodafone (one of our carriers ) has implemented the use of facetime to its customers here. I guessed the same in the begninig but even if it didnt, since im not using a simcard is that supposed to matter anyways?
    It is no where to be found on my ipod, i searched. Also it is not being restricted or anything.
    And anyways im goin to the UK next month and staying for a while, would the icon automatically appear, since it comes pre-installed im guessing i wont be able to install it from a unrestricted country (if this was the case) since it is not installed on my ipod in the first place.
    Thank you,
    Sorry for the inconvenience, but this could be quiet confusing.

  • HT4437 Since updating to iOS7, the airplay icon does not appear when playing music

    Since the update, we cannot play music through the Bose Air. Neither the Airplay or Airdrop icons appear in the control screen as it shows in the support page. The devices are all on the same network & the speaker is working - it will play via Airplay on the Mac.
