You need 10.7.2 to run iCloud, but there are ways to manually setup email on 10.6.8, and if you want contacts & calendars in addition to email that also can be done, but not for free.
Here is a how to for mail.
If you want to use the contacts and calendars post back.

How do i get my apple email to work after switching to icloud?

how do i get my apple email to work after switching to icloud?

I'm on OS 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard) with Mac Mail 4.5.
Will deleting a .mac account in Mac Mail lose all saved emails, drafts, etc? I'm afraid of losing all my stuff.
I just switched to iCloud last night and now I can access my mail only through the iCloud web interface. Mac Mail will not work with my .mac email account. But it still works for my other non-Apple addresses.

Anyone having trouble with their MobileMe email after switching to iCloud?

After making the switch to iCloud, I can't access my MobileMe email at all. When I enter my information on my phone to set up the account it verifies it, then when I go to the mail app it says the password is incorrect. When I got to my Mail map on my mac it says the server rejects my password. When I go to the mobile me and iCloud websites they tell me there is an error.

Same here - I had to turn my iphone4 Off several times and finally left if off for a few minutes - that seemed to do the trick. Once I restarted it prompted me to transfer my MobileMe account to iCloud and when I clicked OK it worked like a charm.

I lost all of my notes after switching my icloud account, is there any way to get them back??

I decided to switch my icloud email to a more frequently used email. After doing this I went to check my notes (where I kept a lot of important things) and found that there was nothing there. It has been really stressing me out because I believe that when it asked if I wanted to delete the account from my phone, I said yes. I am really freaking out here, and could use some advice. I haven't tried much in fear of making it worse, so the sooner the advice, the better! Thank you so much for the help!

If you backup with iTunes and you restored from the backup and the notes were gone, then there is no where to retrieve them from unless you have another backup that contains those notes.
Launch iTunes on the computer and go to iTunes>Preferences>Devices. You will see a window with all of your backups listed in it.
If you see a recent backup that you are certain contains the notes that you need, recover deleted notes from iPhone backup.
I think the suggestions might be of use to you.

Will I still recieve emails from my old email account after creating an iCloud email account on my devices?

After creating an iCloud email will I still recieve emails from my old email account account on my devices?

If the old email account is a non-iCloud email account, then yes. You will continue to receive email from your old account as long as it is still set up in Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars.
However, if the old email account is an iCloud email account, you will have to add it back on your devices in Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Add Account>iCloud, then sign in with your old iCloud account IC, in order to continue to receive it on your devices. If you do this, the old email will be fetch only, not push.

Second apple email is still running in MobileMe after switching to iCloud. How do I switch it to iCloud?

I did the transfer to icloud a while back but i just realized that the second email i have attached to my account didn't switch over. Does anybody have an idea how to perform thar switch? I tried signing in on the web and couldn't but all the settings are still mobileme on the email account.

Hi,
Here is a link to the Apple Support site for everything Apple ID. Your other address may be under another ID. Follow the various paths under Multiple IDs to reconcile this so you can add that email to your iCloud Apple ID. If you find you do not have multiple IDs, the you can simply follow the instructions under Manage My Account for adding additional email addresses. But make sure you don't have multiple IDs first - it will ultimately save you a lot of time and frustration!

Please helpe to restore all my contacts.

Your signature says you have 10.6.2: is this correct? Lion 10.7.2 is required for syncing with iCloud - you cannot sync your contacts on 10.6.2. All you can do is go to http://icloud.com , select Contacts, click the top contact and then the bottom one while holding the shift key to select them all; click on the cogwheel at bottom left and choose 'Exort vCard'.
Then go to Address Book on your Mac, from the File menu choose 'Import' and select your vCard. This will restore the contacts to your Mac but they will not sync with iCloud.

How to use .mac email address after upgrade to iCloud.

HI
Just wondering the following.
I have an old mac.com email address.. Can I still use it in any capacity? What I am thinking is to be able to have an email sent to my mac.com email address forwarded to my gmail account. Is this possible and if so how?
Thanks and I look forward to your reply.

If you use iCloud in Mail, all iCloud mail will include the main address and all aliases. They show in the same account, but with the different addresses.
If you use the main forwarding address in the general preferences of Mail at the iCloud site, then all messages to all iCloud addresses will forward to gmail.
If you only want to forward one of the addresses, go to the rules tab and create a rule to forward the .mac address to gmail.
You said: I am using gmail on my iphone/ipad so I do not need to sync my mail.
     Do you not want the .mac or .me account on your phone and iPad?
You said: What I am trying to achieve here is just to have a mac.com account. My concern is I do not want to get it confused with the me.com address. Given that is it possible to have a mac.com email account that will work?
Where are you using the .me account and what for? How do you want to separate them so you don't get confused? If you only want a .mac account, what happened to gmail?
I'm sorry. It appears there is a minor translation barrier. I am not understanding what you need to accomplish and I'm getting confused.
Maybe you could explain as simple as possible all what you want to show in Mail on the computer, iPhone, and iPad and what you want to sync together.
Glenn I am sorry for the confusion. The joys of email.
I'm not exactly sure what you're trying to do. Do you want the .mac address forwarded to gmail and not the .me address?
     Yes I want to forward the .mac address to my gmail account The reason I have the .me address is because Apple forced this on me when I signed up for the icloud when it first came out. They would not let me use another account. I would have prefered the .mac account but as I said I had no choice.
You said: I am using gmail on my iphone/ipad so I do not need to sync my mail.
     Do you not want the .mac or .me account on your phone and iPad?
    I do not want either account on my iPhone or iPad for email. I use my gmail account for my email. I have gmail defined as an exchange account on the iPhone/iPad in order to push email to my devices. I just want to have a .mac email address that people can send emails to. My intention is to forward the .mac emails to my gmail.
So I guess my problem boils down to how I can have the mac.com address (which is defined on Apple) forward any emails to my gmail account.
I hope I am making this clearer for you to understand. Maybe I am trying to do something that is not possible? Maybe I am making this more complicated than it really i?. The concept is simple. Apple just makes it difficult to do it.
I look forward to hearing back from you.

Lost email folders after Leopard upgrade

I recently upgraded to Leopard and in general things are great, except... there are a couple of mail folders (in Mail) that have disappeared. If I search in Spotlight for messages I know are in those folders, I find the messages. However, if I open a found message from Spotlight and click "Show in Mailbox", Mail comes up with "No Mailbox Selected" in the title bar.
Any ideas on how to recover those folders into Mail?
thx -g

if you go to homefolder/library/mail/... you should see all the folders and files, and there should be a folder for each email account, in each of these you will find the mailboxes for these email accounts. Can you find the missing mailboxes anywhere?
let me know what you find.

After switching to iCloud, Outlook 2011 calendar no longer syncs with iCal.

Before iCloud, my Outlook 2011 calendar (Exchange) was syncing locally with iCal, which worked just fine. Once I moved to iCloud, my local calendar was removed by iCloud, and I can no longer sync my Outlook 2011 calendar (Exchange) to my local iCal (I don't want it to sync with iCloud, if that's still possible). How do I get this capability back?

That's not the point.    Before iCloud, Outlook synched with Apple Calendar and/or iCal.    With iCloud, Cal syncs with iPhone and other devices.     Outlook doesn't have to sync with iCloud (although that would certainly be nice).   It just has to continue to sync with Cal, which in turn syncs with devices via iCloud.
But for some inane reason, it doesn't.    If this is Apple's way of forcing people to not use Office and only use Calendar and Apple Mail, they are going to stop the gains they've made in business environments.   Businesses, especially large businesses, use Outlook.   End of story.
Furthermore, Apple's instructions for setting up or deleting iCal and iCloud accounts is complete gibberish. And I'm a tech who has been working with computers for 32 years.   Apple used to be great at making things easy. They now suck at it and are just as bad as Microsoft.

Ical sharing after switching to iCloud

I have swithched from mobile me to icloud. When trying to re-share my calendar with my husband's .me account it tells me I cannot share a calendar with myself. It is my ical on my imac. Why does it think I am him? Any ideas on how to fix this would be VERY much appreciated!
Thanks!

My first impressions of iCloud are not favorable.
