I'm using Comcast email, how do I setup iCloud with Comcast? I have an iPhone and iPad 2, my home computer is using Windows XP, so I guess I'm out of luck using iCloud with XP.

Forwarding email from comcast to icloud is different than icloud managing comcast email.  One disadvantage of forwarding is that when you respond to an email originally sent to the comcast address and forwarded to icloud, your reply will have the icloud address as the source, not your comcast.  That is a problem for many users.
If your comcast account is IMAP, then there's no reason to forward.  Just define two accounts in your mail app, one for comcast and one for icloud.  Once done, you don't have to worry about dealing with two services, it's all done in a unified way.
And.... you are not talking to Apple here, we're just users like you.  Apple doesn't participate in these forums.

    At this point you have the option of keeping a device optimized version (lower resolution version) of your photo on your phone while iCloud stores a full resolution version.  Or keeping the full resolution version on both your phone and the iCloud. If you delete the photo on your phone it will be deleted on the iCloud. I know, bummer. Also it should be noted that the photos app and the library are still in beta and to this point i see why.  I would use dropbox or a smiliar app for off device storage.
    So far this is how it has been working/not working for me.  Whether or not I choose to keep originals or optimized on my phone it will only keep the originals and it has only been uploading lower resolution versions of my photos to the iCloud library.  Seems to be working in reverse.
    Again these are still in beta so i am hopeful that this will be fixed in the near future.
    I hope this helps.

  • Question on iCloud accts:  I have my iPhone and iPad on one account, but my Mac is set up on my old mobile me acct.  Can't figure out how to change an iCloud account number on my Mac so I can sync all three.

    Question on iCloud accounts:  I have my iPhone and iPad on one iCloud account, but my Mac is on my old Mobile me account.  Can't figure out how to change my iCloud account on my MacBook Pro so all 3 are synced.

    First, open System Preferences > MobileMe and log out. Then, open  > About this Mac and see Version. If you see 10.5.x or 10.6.x, see > http://www.apple.com/osx/specs If your Mac is compatible, upgrade to Mac OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and purchase OS X Mountain Lion.
    When you have upgraded, go to System Preferences > iCloud and follow its steps

  • HT4847 I have an iphone and ipad, how do I merge the two icloud space together

    I have an iphone and ipad, how do I merge the two icloud space together

    Your iCloud account has 5GB space for email, for calendar and contacts syncing, for iWork documents and for iOS backups - all these live on the sever. Both devices access the account; the 5GB space they make use of is the same and is on the server. It's not a case of two spaces, one for each device.

  • I use a PC for work and link it to Office 365. I also have an iphone and ipad. How do I synchronise these devices to Outlook without creating multiple copies of calendars?

    I use my PC for work (MS Office and Outlook). I also use Office 365. I also have an iPhone and iPad. I'm having difficulty getting Outlook to synchronise with Apple devices. I keep getting multiple copies of calendars and not being able to see contacts. Is there a process anywhere which describes the best way to manage these devices together? Or should I just give up on the PC and buy a MacBook or Air.

    Excellent. These guides got me as far as installing my preferred language pack, which gets added to the add-ons automatically (assuming the user says yes to the appearing question when Firefox is started).
    However, the GUI does not change unless the user enters "about:config" and changes the locale.
    Is there a way to do this from the command line? I mean, changing the locale settings.
    And preferrably for all users. So even when new users get added and they start Firefox the first time, they see it appearing with the preferred locale and not in English.

  • I have an iPhone and iPad. I would like to get my husband an iPhone. Are we able to sync all devices and share info with both iPhones and the iPad, using a single email address?

    Thanks for that. He is one of the last holdouts in IT so an email address for him would just mean I have 2 to check so that is what I am trying to avoid as we move into retirement:)

  • How do i delete music with grayed titles in my iphone and ipad. iTunes Match is on

    how do i delete music with grayed titles in my iPhone and iPad. the grayed titles happened when i installed iTunes Match.

    I've done the reset iTunes Match routine turning it on or off in my devices. Everytime its On, it goes thru d scan, match and upload process. When it gets to tge upload stage, it takes sooooo long for just one song to upload, as if d remaining song (2k+) will take years. Anyway, the grayed titles still don't go away. These titles are not exactly missing. I can play those titles because they also appear in my devices as regular content - meaning, the grayed titles are duplicates but don't go away.
    By the way, these grayed titles are viewable only in iTunes Match not on my devices (iPhone 4 and ipad2)

  • HT5622 both my 2 children have an iphone and iPads each but only one computer with one apple id( one itune account) is there away to have 3 different apple id's on one computer? and if so how?

    Both Myself and my 2 children have an iphone and ipad each but only 1 computer and itunes account( 1 apple id) is there away to have 3 itunes accounts on 1 computer as we are all sick of get each other apps and contacts messages, ect.

    Do your children have separate user accounts on the shared mac? They can have their own user accounts with their own AppleIDs, but you could put the iTunes Library into a shared folder, or better an external drive with the ignore ownership option set.

  • I have a iPhone and iPad on one iTunes account, I have recently bought two further I touches fir the kids , should I set them up with their own apple ids and the can I transfer purchases through all devices

    I have a iPhone and iPad on one iTunes account, I have recently bought two further I touches fir the kids , should I set them up with their own apple ids and the can I transfer purchases through all devices,

    Hi jhyiesla,
    Im not sure wether I got you right or not. But my advice/s would be as follows:
    These steps help you get rid of old apps you downloaded years ago and you do not use anymore.(Also frees space on your mac after emptying the trash)
    1) go to iTunes and delete all applications in it. Make sure to move them to trash! Do not empty your trash yet. Its your backup if step 3 doesnt appear.
    2) connect both your devices(one after each other) and make a backup. !!!Dont press the Sync button, press the Back Up Now Button
    3) Then it asks you if you want to backup applications as well. Confirm. (This is how apps get transferred manually)
    4) Then Sync your devices... The first time it might be, that there are some additional apps loaded to your devices you dont want to.. delete them on your Device (not iTunes) and after that you should be good every time you sync again.
    5) now you can empty your trash on your mac.
    Further,
    - You should regularly connect your devices with iTunes to make sure they are backed up. (Even if you have activated iCloud backup, the iTunes backup is more proper i.e.. Apps)
    - If you hate scrolling through a list of apps in iTunes, you can re/install apps directly on iOS not via iTunes. I absolutely never go to the "Applications" section in iTunes. I install and delete apps directly on iOS.

  • I  have a problem with the synchronisation of my iPhone and iPad with Outlook 2007 on my 64-bit Windows 7  PC. For several years, I have had no problems with the synchronisation by cord connection and iTunes between these programmes. However, a few months

    I  have a problem with the synchronisation of my iPhone and iPad with Outlook 2007 on my 64-bit Windows 7  PC. For several years,
    I have had no problems with the synchronisation by cord connection and iTunes between these programmes. However, a few months ago I decided to use Mobile Me. However, there were problems with duplication of calendars and then “rogue events” – which could not be deleted – even if deleted on Outlook and on the iPhone (or both at the same time) – they would just reappear after the next synchronisation.  All other synchronisation areas (eg Contacts, Notes etc) work fine.
    I have looked for help through the Apple Support Community and tried many things.  I have repaired my Outlook. I have repaired my .pst file in Windows. I have re-installed the latest version of iTunes on my PC. I have re-installed the firmware on my iPhone. I have tried many permutations on my iPhone. I have closed down all Mobile Me functions on the iPhone. I have spent upwards of 24 hours trying to solve this problem.
    What am I left with? Outlook works seamlessly on my PC. My iPhone calendar now has no events from  my calendar, but does not synchronise through iTunes. Nor does it send events initiated on the iPhone to the Outlook. I am at the point of abandoning iPhones and iPads altogether.  I need to have a properly synchronising calendar on my phone.  Do you have any suggestions?

    In the control panel goto the "Lenovo - Power Manager" and click the battery tab, there is a maintenance button in there that will let you change the charging profile for your battery.   (from memory, so exact wording may be off)
     The lower the numbers you use there, the longer the battery *should* last.    These batteries degrade faster at higher charge levels, however storing them at too low of levels is also not good for them... I've read that 40% is optimal, but just not realistic if you use your computer.

  • When I open my computer I receive the following message: The procedure entry point sqlite3_wal_checkpoint couldnot be located in the dynamic link library SQLite3.dll How can this be corrected?  I never got this message before and I have a iPhone and iPad

    When opening Windows 7 I'm receiving the following message The procedure entry point sqlite3_wal_checkpoint could not be located in the dynamic link library SQLite3.dll.......I have never rec'd this before............I have a iPhone and iPad...............How can this be corrected without interferring with the information on my computer?    Thanks

    With Windows Explorer, navigate to your C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support folder.
    Copy the SQLite3.dll that you should find there, navigate to the nearby Mobile Device Support folder, and Paste it in there also.
    Reboot and see if all is well
    In case that your OS is Windows 7 (64 bit)
    1. Open windows explorer, go to location C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
    2. Copy file "SQLite3.dll"
    3. Open new windows explorer, to to location C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support
    4. Paste file "SQLite3.dll" to the location.
    5. Reboot your computer, it should not display that message, it should be clear.
    Good Luck

  • HT1386 i have gone through several pc units over time and when i try to sync up my iphone and ipad to my new computer is says it can not sync because i have the devices registered on too many computers. How do i fix that?

    I have had several computers in recent years and when i try to sync my iphone and ipad to my new computer, it says it cant because the devices are registered on too many computers. I only need them synced up to two computers - how do i fix this?

    In iTunes, under the "Store" menu, you can select "Deauthorize this computer". That will remove that computer from your iTunes account and free up a spot for the new computer.
    If you have already sold or wiped your previous computers, you can log into your iTunes account from the Store menu in iTunes by selecting "View My Account xxxx@xxxx". Once you are logged in, about 1/4 the way down the page it will tell you that you have "xx computers are authorized......". Beside that you have the option to deauthorize all of the connected devices. That is the only option, you will have to deauthorize all and then set up the ones you want to use.
    I think 10 is the maximum number of devices that can sync to one iTunes account.

    Just do it. You can use the same credit card for multiple accounts.
