HT4859 is mobile me the same as Icloud for my mac pro?
im trying to get my devices synced but I cannot find Icloud on my macbook
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
iCloud requires OS X Lion or Mountain Lion. Open > About this Mac and check Version. If it's 10.5, buy Snow Leopard > http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard Then, make a backup, insert the DVD and upgrade. Finally, open > Software Update and install the most recent version.
If it's 10.6, go to > Software Update and install the most recent version. Finally, open App Store and purchase Mountain Lion. See if your apps are supported > http://www.roaringapps.com

With MobileMe you could backup files from your Mac and host websites. iCloud is just for syncing contacts, bookmarks, and photos, etc. between mobile devices and Macs and backing up up mobile devices as described in this Apple document: iCloud: iCloud storage and backup overview
What iCloud backs up
You have important information on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch. iCloud automatically backs up your device over Wi-Fi every day while it’s turned on, locked, and connected to a power source. With your device information backed up in iCloud, you can easily set up a new device or restore information on one you already have.
Here’s what iCloud backs up:
Purchase history for music, movies, TV shows, apps, and booksYour iCloud backup includes information about the content you have purchased, but not the purchased content itself. When you restore from an iCloud backup, your purchased content is automatically downloaded from the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBooks Store. Some types of content aren’t downloaded automatically in all countries, and previous purchases may be unavailable if they have been refunded or are no longer available in the store. For more information, see the Apple Support article iTunes in the Cloud availability by country. Some types of content aren’t available in all countries. For more information, see the Apple Support article Which types of items can I buy in my country?.
Photos and videos in your Camera Roll
Device settings
App data
Home screen and app organization
iMessage, text (SMS), and MMS messages
Ringtones
Visual Voicemail
This Apple document describes the Photo Stream feature of iCloud: iCloud: My Photo Stream FAQ
For backing up files from your Mac you'll need a external hard drive and a backup applicaiton like Time Machine (comes with all Macs).

Where can I obtain the AHT on disk for my Mac Pro 4.1?
Where can I obtain a disk (iso) of the AHT for my Mac Pro 4.1 (latest OS X Yosemite) that I am busy upgrading?
If you can fiddle with file permissions without going nuts, the original gray discs or the downloads mentioned (once the .dmg is mounted) provide a roughly 60 to 100 MByte .diagnostics [invisible] directory at:
/Volumes/disc_name/System/Library/CoreServices/.diagnostics
You can see this folder (on the DVD or in the download) with the Finder by looking in CoreServices, using the Find command and specifying name .diagnostics and Visibility [invisible].
Open a second Finder window and navigate to the comparable place in the current Directory structure:
/System/Library/CoreServices
drag and drop the .diagnostics directory from the DVD or the download in one window to the current Core Services folder in the other window. Observe carefully to see that it actually does the copy, as Find-ing it in the current directory structure is quirky.
You may have to authenticate as Admin, or you may already have access --
-- otherwise you can change the permissions of the current CoreServices folder to allow you to Read & Write
-- don't forget to change permissions back if you modified them.
NOW try Restart and hold the D key. -
HT204053 is mobile me the same as icloud

No, mobile me has been closed down. iCloud is only available with OS X 10.7.2 or later.

We have multiple devices in our family. On each iPad/iPhone each user has their own apple id for iMessage, Facetime and icloud, but we all sign in to the same apple id for itunes. When one of my kids comments on my shared photostream, it shows my name and not theirs as the commenter. How do I fix that?
CREATE A NEW USER
Go to System Preferences --> Create a New User in Users & Groups
Decide on whether to setup as Admin or Standard User.
Switch to the New User by logging out under the Apple in the Menu Bar or use Fast User Switching
Fast User Switching allows other users to leave current applications and windows open. Depending on RAM, you might need to log out rather than use FUS. -
My wife and I got Iphone 4S same day 2 years ago. I used the same Apple ID for both. We do not use iCloud, but today after I updated my phone to IOS7 I keep getting her texts on my phone ans vice versa. I turned off imessage in message settings. Seems to have stopped now? Never did this before IOS7. Will I have more troubble when her phone updates to IOS7? Is icloud going to be forced on me then?
This is being caused by using the same Apple ID for iMessage on both phones. To separate your messages, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and do one of the following:
Either uncheck the email address shown under "You can be reached by iMessage at" on both phones; or
If you want to continue to receive iMessages at this email address, on one of the two phones, tap the Apple ID at the top, sign out, then sign back in using a different Apple ID. -
All is in the title, so I repeat it below with a better identation.
What are the pros and cons of
1) choosing to use the SAME
Apple ID for iCloud services on one side, and
purchases on the iTunes Store, App Store, and iBookstore, on the other side; or
2) to have and use two separate Apple Ids for these "two sides"?
P.S.
I have loads and loads of free podcasts in iTunes in my iMac, that are certainly more thant the 5 gigas the iCloud provides for free, so I don't want those to go to the cloud. But this is perhaps a different question...
Also need to mention that I have itunes on a mac, a pc and an iphone.
Sorry to look so silly with this question, but I don't get the "big picture".You need to create a user account for your wife (or yourself depending on who has the current user account). When syncing, each of you should sign in as a separate user, login to iTunes and then sync. I had this problem when my sister got an iPhone. When we did her initial sync, everything on my iPhone showed up on hers. Apple gave me this solution.

I used the same apple id for my iphone and my husbands now all our contacts and such are together. How do I undo this? Do i create him a different icloud account?
Yes, start with deleting your account on his device:
(Settings > iCloud or Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendar > Your Account)
In the next step, create a new account on his device:
(Settings > iCloud or Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendar > Your Account) -
I have two iphones, different telcos, i am using the same apple id for both - how can i use the 10GB icloud free memory of my new iphone 5?
Thank you KiltedTim!
YES, that is the free 5GB icloud memory for each apple ID. Can I not add the free 5Gb of my second Iphone to my original apple ID (5GB also) as I want to use one Apple ID name on both 2 Iphones? Is it necessary to have a different apple ID for the second Iphone to avail the free 5GB it carries with it? -
hi i have the same apple id for my iPad and my mac. my iPhone has a different one. My i cloud on my mac seems to be the iCloud on my iPad, if that makes sense so its not sending my photos from my mac to the cloud. how do i change it to upload mac pictures instead? thanks
Did you go into Settings > Store and then tap your old ID, sign out and then enter your new ID?

Hi Anne,
I'm pretty sure different eMail addies are needed for different Apple IDs. -
