HT4759 I don't meet iCloud requirements, but apple says I can still switch over?

The email I received from apple today says "don't meet iCloud requirements?  You can still switch over...".
Yet when I click "move to iCloud now" on my iPhone with ios5, it says I must make the switch from a Mac or pc. 
So I can't switch over from my iPhone, which DOES meet the requirements?  But not from my laptop, which doesn't?
I'm thoroughly confused.

You can switch on the computer. You can either use the option to switch at the end of June, or simply lie about meeting the specifications on the computer.

  • Can't install itunes on windows 7 machine. I keep getting A message stating that I don't meet min. requirements, but the machine has more than enough. What do I need to do to correct this?

    Can't install itunes on windows 7 machine. I keep getting A message stating that I don't meet min. requirements, but the machine has more than enough. What do I need to do to correct this?

    Are you trying to install the 32-bit version on a 64-bit machine, or vice versa?
    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for performance issues or compatibility with third party software.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

  • I have a Mac Book Pro but it says it can't upgrade to Lion, do i have to buy a new computer? How can i upgrade? I want to be able to use iCloud on this computer too.

    I have a 2GHz Intel Core Duo MacBook Pro with Max OSX version 10.6.8
    I would like to upgrade to Lion but it says I can't .
    So can I? how ?
    I would like to be able to use iCloud on this computer too.
    Thanks

    The minimum requirements require the intel core 2 duo processor.so I am sorry to say that you will need to update your mac if you want to run Lion and iCloud. Apple's http://www.apple.com/macosx/specs.html page for osx gives the minimum requirements.

    Make sure you are using iOS 5 or higher (required for iCloud).  Also, if this is a phone from your employer or you have added your employer's exchange email account to your phone, they may have pushed a security profile to your phone removing iCloud.  (Check Settings>General to see if there is a setting called Profile near the bottom.)  You would need to contact your emplyer's IT department to confirm this.

  • Have been trying to cancel and refund my iCloud upgrade am going round in circles apple says you can cancel within 14 days but won't tell you how help!!

    Have been trying to cancel and refund my iCloud upgrade am going round in circles apple says you can cancel within 14 days but won't tell you how help!!

    You can cancel an iCloud storage upgrade but only within 15 days of buying:
    Apple seem to have made this as difficult as possible. You may be able to do this using http://expresslane.apple.com - Click on 'More products and services', then 'iCloud', 'Account and setup' then 'This topic is not listed'. Explain the situation in the box provided and wait for a response - include a phone number. However you may find you cannot proceed without entering a hardware serial number which is still eligible for AppleCare.
    In that event you will need to phone them directly, using the Apple Online Store number given at the bottom of this page. The first person you speak to may tell you to do it from the iCloud website but this is not possible. Politely insist on escalating the issue to a more senior person and eventually you should be able to get through to someone who can deal with this (you may have to wait for them to call you back) - you will be asked security questions and for part of your credit card number to identify yourself.
    If it is more than 15 days since you purchased the storage you cannot cancel it for a refund; you can downgrade your plan as from your next renewal date. Please see

  • HT204053 I transferred my MobileMe account to my iCloud account but I would be keen to switch this to my Store Purchases Apple ID.  Is there an easy way to do this?

    I transferred my MobileMe account to my iCloud account but I would be keen to switch this to my Store Purchases Apple ID.  Is there an easy way to do this?

    You can't merge accounts or transfer iTunes purchases from one Apple ID to another: but there is no problem about using two IDs.
    Use your ex-MobileMe email address (which is also an Apple ID) for iCloud for syncing email, contacts, calendars, bookmarks, and PhotoStream.
    Use your other Apple ID as before for iTunes, iTunes in the Cloud and iTunes Match.
    There's no conflict about doing this, and you won't even notice as Keychain will log you in with the correct ID in each case. It's also better security not to have your iTunes login also your email address, given the number of complaints about hacked iTunes accounts.

  • I am trying to install windows on my mac via bootcamp, and it says I need to download Windows Support Software. I tried, but it says "Download can not continue. The Windows Support Software is not available.

    I am running OSX 10.6.8 Snow lepard I am trying to install windows on my intel imac 20in late 2006  via bootcamp, and it says I need to download Windows Support Software. I tried, but it says "Download can not continue. The Windows Support Software is not available. I bought the Imac secend hand and did not get the install dvd's with it What can I do?

    You don't need to download the Windows support software, because in Snow Leopard, they are only available as a download for the Late 2010 MacBook Air.
    Instead, you have to buy Mac OS X Snow Leopard. The Snow Leopard disc contains the Windows drivers for your Mac, so you have to install them after finishing the Windows installation

  • I have just bought a new laptop, i am trying to sync my songs on my iphone to my itunes, but it says i can only sync with 1 itunes, any way round this?

    iv just bought a new laptop, i am trying to sync my songs on my iphone to my itunes, but it says it can only be sync with 1 itunes, any way around this?

    The iPhone like all iDevices is not a storage device, it is merely a mirror of the content in the library to which it is synced.
    If you wish to sync to a new computer, the first step is to copy or move the iTunes media library from the old computer to the new computer.  This can be done via the network or by using an external hard drive.
    Once the library has been moved, simply sync to the new computer.

  • I want to change my primary email on Apple ID... but it says I can't use email already in use but its not my alternative email - it may have been in the past - any ideas?

    I want to change my primary email on Apple ID but it says I can't use email already in use but its not my alternative email - it may have been in the past - any ideas?

    I don't believe Apple lets you delete old accounts. They also will not let you merge them.

  • I pre order an iphone 6 but its on hold it says to call and i tried but it says it can't be located

    I pre order an iphone 6 but its on hold it says to call and i tried but it says it can't be located

    I'm not sure that answers the question Candice.
    I'm in the same situation.  I was up trying to get on the Verizon page at 11:55, kept getting the ECPD error.  When finally got through, the Silver Iphone Plus 64 showed arrival of 9-19.  At every step of the process, it seemed that I was ordering a phone that would arrive on day1.  At no point did it say this was an estimate.  At no point did it say it might change.  In a big yellow box, it said "9-19".  Ordered it, then got confirmation email stating it should arrive at 9-19.   Seems like all should be good, right?  Order site said 9-19, I've got a confirmation email saying 9-19, done and done.
    Then I check the website, and suddenly it changed to 10-14?!?!?!?  I feel like this was a bait and switch.  I was able to pickup an iphone5 in a local store on launch day, and would not have locked myself into a preorder through Verizon if I had known this would happen!
    So, that leads back to the original questions.  Lets assume I walk into a Verizon store on 9-19, and there is an available iphone6 plus just sitting there, can I either get that phone as fulfillment of my pre-order.  Or, cancel my pre-order and buy that phone right then and there?

    PS:  It seems there are many people you misled this way.  For every person who takes the time to post on this site, there are going to be many many more who are silently ****** off.

  • I have a new mac and wanted to bring over my Design suite CS 4. I downloaded photoshop but it says "Setup" can't be opened because it is from an unidentfied developer.  Anyway to install tis? I have the serial number

    Anyway, I downloaded it all but just photoshop I downloaded separtly, It is really the only one I use. Seems my old OS was to old and my new is too new?
    I have a new mac and wanted to bring over my Design suite CS 4. I downloaded photoshop but it says "Setup" can't be opened because it is from an unidentfied developer.  Anyway to install this? I have the serial number for my orginal CS4 design suite.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    If you have the suite then you have to download the whole suite otherwise the Serial Number will not work, if you only download Photoshop. Once you download the suite you can choose to only install Photoshop and use the Serial number you have.
    You can download from here.
    Download CS4 products
    If you get the message:Setup" can't be opened because it is from an unidentified developer , You can follow Fix the “App can’t be opened because it is from an unidentified developer” Error in Mac OS X .
    **You can change it to MAC App store and identified developers afterwards.

    I'd try to register my macbook pro but Apple says that It is already registered.

    Typically your Mac gets registered automaticlly when you set it up as a new machine.
    check warranty https://selfsolve.apple.com/agreementWarrantyDynamic.do
    My Support Profile https://idmsa.apple.com/
    If your mac is not listed in the devices than you can add it.
