how do i transfer my docs to icloud, does it work like a dropbox

You can only transfer iWork documents at present, and only if you have an iOS device with ate least one of the iWork apps on it; in which case you go to the iCloud website, to the iWork page, and drag the documents there. It's not intended for backup, or syncing between Macs, only for allowing your iOS device to edit your documents.
iCloud does not offer general file storage: for that you will need a third-party solution. This page examines some options:

Transfer from Mac to iCloud does not work

Hello,
I failed to transfer any data from my Mac (OS X 7.3) to the iCloud. I use Microsoft Outlook (Calendar, Mail and Contacts). The Calendar and the Contacts are mirrored to the local iCal and address book. However, nothong gets synchronized to iCloud. ICal and address book are empty (exept for the Apple and my address). I would need to transfer these data to an iPad and iPhone I'm planning to buy.
I also cannot transfer any other data (including photos) to the iCloud. Only "Search my Mac" works.
What am i doing wrong?
MobileMe also does not work, I cannot log in with my vaild Apple ID. Since this will shut down sooon I'm not concerned but maybe these things are connected?
Regards,
Axel

Microsoft Outlook is not compatible with iCloud as Microsoft have not yet added support for the industry standard CalDAV and CardDAV protocols that iCloud and other similar services uses.

How do i transfer photos from my icloud to my PC?

How do i transfer photos from my icloud to my PC?

Hello there, emz14.
The following Knowledge Base article offers up some great information in regard to getting photos from iCloud to your PC:
iCloud: My Photo Stream FAQ
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4486
Particularly:
How many photos are stored in My Photo Stream on my devices and computers?
iCloud pushes all your photos to the My Photo Stream album on your devices and computers, and manages them efficiently, so you don’t run out of storage space.
Your iOS devices keep a rolling collection of your last 1000 photos in the My Photo Stream album. From there, you can browse your recent photos or move the ones you like to your Camera Roll or another album to keep them on your device forever.
Because your Mac and PC have more storage than your iOS devices, you can choose to have all of your My Photo Stream photos automatically downloaded. In iPhoto or Aperture preferences on your Mac, select Photos (or Photo Stream) > My Photo Stream > Automatic Import. All of your photo stream photos will be imported into your Events, Projects, Photos, Faces, and Places folders in iPhoto or Aperture. On your PC with My Photo Stream enabled in the Control Panel, all of your photos will be imported into C:\\Users\<user name>\Pictures\iCloud Photos\My Photo Stream. For iCloud Control Panel 2.1 to 2.1.3 users, the path isC:\\Users\<user name>\Pictures\Photo Stream\My Photo Stream.
If you are working on a Windows computer and need to download the iCloud Control Panel, here is a link for you:
iCloud Control Panel 3.1 for Windows

You can't restore to a backup that was taken on a device which has a higher version of iOS than on your iPad, you will have to update your iPad to 8.1.3 to be able to restore to it
You should be able to update your iPad via Settings > General > Software Update

I can't seem to find a way to do this.

I am having issues with this, too. I currently have both the trial version and the purchased version, and I've done a lot of work in the trial that I MUST get access to, but it's not showing up in the paid version (contrary to what is stated above... that it shows up in the paid automatically). I am worried that if I delete the trial all my days of work will be trashed. It is critical that these files transfer...is it truly as simple as deleting the trial? Why was that not said anywhere in the loading directions? Feeling truly frustrated!
What version is the trial? Is that a 10.0.*?
What version is the purchased version?

How do I uninstall the iPhoto update which does not work on maverick?

How do I uninstall the iphoto update which does not work. ie it tells me my library is locked out and the recommended action by apple does not open the phot library first aid. ? i need to go back to the old iphoto.

Terence, I was trying a way to message you directly - jumping on a recent thread seemed to be the only way (sorry, DEW45).
Terence, you seem to be the foremost expert on apeture and iphoto and have helped me many times in the past (thanks). I have a question that you may be able to help with (anyone also feel free to take a stab). I use blogger to upload my photos and host my blog (www.sippingespresso.com). I spend hours organzing and editing photos - namely, I will enhance and sometimes alter an image in Apeture. It always saves over the orginal file (at least for viewing purposes), which is fine by me. But then when I go to upload the photos onto blogger it seems to always pull my dull, original image. Obviously, I want the newer, bright, enhanced photo.
I'm one step away from importing them, dragging them out of iphoto and into Photoshop, then editing the files and dragging them back into iphoto, deleting the originals and uploading from there. There HAS to be a better way - please help!! I've already posted far too many boring images without the beauty of Apeture's "auto enhance".
Thanks in advance, Terence or anyone else.

How can I split the window in the document I work like I can in the Microsoft Word

How can I split the window in the document I work like I can in the Microsoft Word? So I can see in the same time the start and the end of the document!

I also agree it's a needed feature. I suggest you leave feedback for the Pages team regarding this. You can find it under the Pages menu > Provide Pages Feedback. That takes you to the same page as this link.

How do I transfer PDF doc to my iPad?

How do I transfer a PDF document from my MBP to my iPad2? I see no "document" section in the iTunes sync function. I tried emailing the document to myself as an attachment and i can open it but saving it is not an option (that I can see). Is it possible? Any advice will be appreciated.

You first need an app on the iPad if you want to save it there - the iPad doesn't have a file system like a 'normal' computer, each file/document has to be stored/associated with an app. The free iBooks app supports PDFs, or there are other free (e.g. the Adobe Reader app) and paid-for (e.g. GoodReader) apps that support PDFs.
To get PDFs to iBooks on your iPad, then you can sync them from your computer. You can add PDFs to iTunes either by dragging and dropping or via File > Add Folder To Library and they should then appear in the Books section of your iTunes Library (if Books doesn't show on the left-hand side of your iTunes then make sure that it's ticked on the General tab in Edit > Preferences). You can then sync it to the iPad via the Books tab on the right-hand side of iTunes (similar to how you sync other content to the iPad)
Or, once you've downloaded iBooks onto the iPad, the touch and hold the attachment and you should get an option to 'open in iBooks'

How can I transfer attachments on my emails to imac apps like pages or numbers

How can I transfer email attachments to my imac apps like pages or numbers, so that I would be able to rearrange?

Save the attachments to your Desktop or a location where you can easily find them and then import them into the application you want to use them in.
In Pages, for example, you can select 'Choose' from the Insert menu, navigate to the image and import it. You can also just drag an image to a Pages document. I expect the process will be similar for Numbers.

How do I transfer my pictures into iCloud

How do I transfer my pictures into iCloud

iClouds saves photo's in your photo stream, If you want to save those to your phone , just save them to your camera roll. If you can not see your photo stream on your phone. Go to Settings>iCloud>Photos, and turn on my photo stream. Then once you are connected to wi-fi you should see your photostream on your device.

How can I transfer "notes" from one icloud account to another, and other account questions

Hey,
I currently have 2 icloud accounts. (In total I have 4 seperate apple ids somehow, 1 @me.com, 1 @icloud.com, 1 @gmail.com, and 1 apple id. But that's a problem I'll talk about later).
Right now, all of my notes got deleted from my iphone, but they are on the icloud account A: (@me.com account's icloud.) When I reconnect this account to my iphone, the notes are there. However, when I turn off note syncing in my iphone's icloud settings, I'm not prompted to "keep data on iphone" (like I am prompted with contacts). Instead, they are just deleted from the iphone. So there's no way to connect the icloud account A, download the data, and reconnect icloud account B.
How can I get these notes from icloud account A to icloud account B (or just getting it from icloud account A to my iphone.)
And while I'm at it, how can I get the @icloud account that was linked with the @me.com account to get linked to the @gmail.com account.
Sorry if this is confusing.

Let me rephrase my comment... I used Windows to sync my data without icloud, we decided to switch to mac and purchased a $2000 osx driven machine only to find out apple has "secretly" disabled mobile sync services and replaced it with icloud syncing. There was NO documentation stating this fact before my purchase, it was only realized when users started running into syncing issues that apple disclosed mavericks no longers uses mobile syncing services and "requires you to use icloud to sync device information" on this forum.
They removed a integral part of my privacy without telling me, or warning me, before i spent money on non-refundable merchandice.
These are not mindless, I was forced into mavericks when i purchased a new mac... All other versions of OSX provide modile syncing services.
And I was not threatening lawsuit, i was stating a thought that this leavs apple open to a lawsuit for people who want their data kept private, they are FORCING the use of icloud now.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
