HT5372 can't get iCloud tabs working on my Mac

How do I get iCloud tabs working again on my Mac. For whatever reason, they aren't showing up.

Have you tried everything in the document you came from
iCloud: Using and troubleshooting iCloud Tabs ?
The only other reaon I can think o,f that may be preventing the iCloud tabs from showing on your Mac may be, that you enabled "Private Browsing". Is that turned on in the Safari menu?

Can't get iCloud to work on my Mac

I am trying to get iCloud on my Mac and iPhone so I can sync documents, photos, etc. But I can't seem to get iCloud on my Mac to work. Example: there's no option to save in iCloud on Pages. I have OS 10.7.5, and Pages 4.3; my wife has OS 10.8.5 and Pages 4.3, but she CAN save things to iCloud. Any ideas?

For sharing documents and sharing photos via My Photo Stream with your Mac you'll need 10.7.5 at a minimum which you apparently have. So you should be able to do the same as your wife.
Documents in the Cloud
iOS 5
iWork for iOS (Pages 1.5, Numbers 1.5, Keynote 1.5)
OS X v10.7.5
iWork ’09 (Pages 4.2, Numbers 2.2, Keynote 5.2)
My Photo Stream
iOS 5.1
OS X v10.7.5
iPhoto ’11 (9.2.2)
or Aperture 3.2.3
For more information on what system you need to be running in order to utilize the various iCloud features see this Apple document: System requirements for iCloud.
Have you tried logging out of iCloud and then back in in the System preferences? However, your best bet would be to do as Csound1 suggested, upgrade to 10.8.5, so you have parity with your wife's Mac.

Can i get icloud to work on os x 10.6.8?

can i get icloud to work on OS X 10.6.8?

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
iCloud isn't compatible with Mac OS X 10.6.8. However, if you have created an iCloud account on a different computer or device, you can use some iCloud services on 10.6.8 > http://www.wilmut.webspace.virginmedia.com/notes/icloudSL-m.html
If you haven't got an iCloud account, upgrade to OS X Lion or Mountain Lion to use iCloud on the Mac

And it kills me that a friend who has pc computers and just has an iphone and ipad can breeze through all this with no problem and he still has XP. So Apple goes back and helps old OS for pc but not for it's own kind!!!
Richard, I agree with you 1,000%. I wrote this in a forum a few weeks ago, when a user was complaining about Snow Leopard not supporting iCloud:
Why is it that if I bought a Mac before July of this year, I must pay to upgrade my operating system in order to take advantage of iCloud? Meanwhile, a Windows Vista SP2 user, who bought a new computer in May 2009, already has everything they need on their computer to use iCloud.
Why was it possible for Apple to write a free iCloud Control Panel that was compatible with existing versions of Windows, but Mac users must buy an entirely new operating system?
If Apple gave Mac users the same amount of backwards compatibility that it gives to Windows users, people with OSX 10.5 (Leopard) would be able to use iCloud. That's something to think about the next time you go to purchase a new computer.
(P.S. Something else to think about: If you bought a Mac before October 2007 (when OSX 10.5 was introduced), your computer won't run iTunes 10.5 unless you buy an upgrade. But a PC user, who purchased their computer as long ago as Sept. 2004(!), can run iTunes without an OS upgrade.)
I got so angry thinking about this, that I ended up writing an angry note to Apple on their feedback page. After repeating what I just wrote here, I asked them to commit to providing at least the same level of support to Mac users that they do for PC users when it comes to their cross platform products (iPhone, iPad, iCloud, Apple TV, Safari, iTunes, etc.) And, really, is that so much to ask?
I wish I knew how to start a petition requesting that Mac users get comparable treatment as PC users. But then again, shouldn't that go without saying?
Please leave feedback about this revolting double standard on the Apple feedback page. They should be thinking long and hard about why their own customers are treated worse than the customers of their competition.

Can't get Cisco to work on my Mac?

I can not get Cisco to work on my Mac OSX 10.9.4
I found this link on someone else's post about this same issue
https://mega.co.nz/#!tlghxQoZ!I0VV1Th9pgiFMQagfG7LbHLvT8xT5uyKo8CrPAX5f9U
Several people said that it worked for them but the last is in 2013 so I'm not sure if its older Mac OS systems
I can down load and install fine but when I go to open it I get this error message
ERROR! cannot write to Info.plist, there are permission problems, or you are on a read-only volume.
This cannot run from within a read-only dmg file.
But when I go to "get info" the program says i have "read and write" permission?
I'm lost and new to Mac, can someone help me please?

The Cisco VPN client is notoriously lousy. Use the built-in Cisco client if at all possible.

How can I get iCloud to work on my IMac?

I have an IMac, iPhone and now a MacBook. I have iCloud working on my MacBook and iPhone. How can I get it to work on my iMac 27" Both computers have Lion for the OS. Blessings...

Reinstalling Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the Drive
Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

I can't get icloud to work on my computer not sure how to create an icloud account

Hi there, can anyone help me with this? I have been trying all day to get icloud to work on my computer. I have successfully downloaded it on to my laptop. I am having trouble creating an iCloud ACCOUNT as it won't let me sign in with my Apple ID until I have created an iCloud account and there are no instructions on HOW this is done, unless I am overlooking something. I have a 3rd Generation iPod Touch 16GB, which should be able to link up with icloud, but I am getting nowhere fast and getting frustrated with all the stonewalling. PLEASE HELP ME.

Can't get iCloud to work properly from new MBP.

I recently bought a new MBP and gave my old one to my wife. I deleted the calendar and contact info from my old MBP since she didn't need it. Only I didn't realize that it would also delete all the information from my new MBP that I had initialized from a Time Machine back-up.
But now, I can't get thinks back to normal. I had recently upgraded my old MBP to Mavericks, so I posted my questions there on the assumption that the problem was with Mavericks. I now think the problem is with iCloud, so I'm posting here as well.
Here's my tale of woe ...
First, I tried restoring my back-ups, but the restored info would literally disappear with 2-3 seconds of being reloaded. I sat there and watched my contacts appear, then disappear. Three times. The Mavericks folks made some suggestions about deleting files from the Application Support Folder. No help. Same results. Watched my contacts load and then disappear 3 more times.
So I decided to start more-or-less from scratch. I deleted my iCloud account from both my MBP and my iPad. I then reloaded my calendar and my contacts from the back-ups on my MBP. Everything fine so far. All calendar items are there. All contacts are there.
I re-added the iCloud account on my MBP. Still okay. Contacts and calendar info still there. However, System Preferences would not allow me to check the box next to "calendar." It said "setting up" then stopped and unchecked the Calendar box. I am also unable to enable the iCloud account within Calendar preferences.
I re-added my account on my iPad. No calendar info, but that didn't surprise me because the calendar wouldn't connect from my Mac.
But the Contacts on the iPad included ONLY those contacts that I had added from the previous recipients window after my last back-up. None of the contacts that had come from my previous back-up were there even though they were on my MBP. So I tried unchecking the box in System Preferences. All of my contacts disappeared from my MBP. None disappeared from my iPad.
So at this point, my iPad becomes a games machine. I can't get my contacts to it. I can't my calendar to it. Email is no good without my contacts.

The iCloud Calendar and Time Machine don't play nice together. If you accidentally delete your calendars, they are deleted on iCloud: you restore the cached versions from TM, and iCloud promptly brings them up to date by deleting them again.
However it is possible to restore from Time Machine (or another backup system if it's included your calendars) by following the following steps:
Turn off your internet connection. Make sure that it really is completely off.
Restore from Time Machine or your backup. This should restore your calendars to list under your iCloud username.
Now carry out this process with each calendar:
Select a calendar listed under your iCloud login name.
From the File menu choose Export...>Export. An .ics file will be saved at your designated destination.
Create a new calendar with the same name as the one you've just exported from, choosing 'On My Mac'.
From the File menu choose Import... Select the .ics file and choose to import it into the calendar you just created (make sure you don't import it into the iCloud version).
Now your calendars are listed under 'On My Mac' as well as under your iCloud login name.
Reconnect to the internet. Your iCloud calendars will disappear as before. Now carry out the following process with each of the 'On My Mac' calendars:
Select your 'On My Mac' calendar. From the File menu choose 'Export...' then 'Export...'; from the sub-menu. This will create an .ics file at the location chosen in the Export dialog.
From the File menu choose 'New Calendar' then your iCloud login name in the sub menu.
A new calendar called 'Untitled' will appear in your sidebar under your iCloud login name. Change its name to that of the calendar you exported.
From the File menu choose 'Import...' then 'Import...' from the sub-menu. A navigation pane will open: navigate to and choose your exported .ics file.
iCal will ask you where to import this to. Click the drop-down menu and select the iCloud version of your calendar (make sure not to choose the 'On My Mac' version). Import.
Your calendar contents will appear in the iCloud version of the calendar but this may take some time. You need to leave iCal running until the rotating icon at the top of the sidebar disappears.
You can now delete the 'On My Mac' version of the calendar (control-click it in the sidebar list and choose 'Delete').
You should back up your calendars periodically by exporting the .ics files as in step 1 above and keeping them safely.

Can't get iCloud to work on my iPad

Hi! I got an iPad for Christmas and I have never been able to get iCloud on it. It says the account has not been verified and to verify it with the email they sent. Well...I never got an email. Thought I could do without it but now I realize it would be good to have. Can anyone help me?
I might also add that my son synked his iPod on my computer to download some music for me and now his name pops up on some of my apps. Might this be the cause?

Welcome to the Apple community.
Firstly apps are associated with your iTunes account not your iCloud account. ask for another email to be sent to you. Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account

Can't get skype to work in other mac system accounts

we have created multiple accounts on our imac and for some reason skype will only work on mine. Any ideas how to get it to work in other people's accounts? We all have basically the same setup. skype error message is about network access but I'm on the internet in these accounts without a problem. anyone have any ideas? thank you!

Compare the Services in the Sharing Pref Panes of the users, Ports 80 & 443 at least are needed for Skype.
Turning on Personal Web Sharing for those Users should open those ports.

Can't get iCloud to work

I am a step above illiterate when it comes to computers so bear with me. I have a MacBook Pro running Lion OS and have an iPad running the new iOS 5. I have set up iCloud on both devices but when I make changes or additions to the calendar it does not show up on the other device. I thought this would happen automatically. Do just documents show up on both devices. I would be grateful for any help/advice.

Hey jeffromst.george,
It was a little confusing when I did it, so I used this website to give me a start-point. Let me know if you have other questions.

Can't get iCloud to work on Mac, but seems ok on iPad

I set up iCloud on my Mac and iPad. On my iMac I checked off mail, contacts, calendar, bookmarks and find my mac. When I click on "manage", It shows Backups and Mail on the left but Mail says 0kb. Backups show my last iPad back up but no iMac backups. What could I be doing wrong? I have updated everything to the latest software. I set up the iPad first, could that have caused a problem?
Thanks!

Shouldn't make any difference.

I have a xD-PictureCard that I want to load pictures onto, from my iPhotos. The reader is a FinePix can I get it to work on the Mac. when I try it wont install the software. Is there any way i can load pics onto the SD card.

I have a xD-PictureCard (SD Card) that works in a picture frame. I have used it in the past on a Windows computer, now having an apple I want to change the pics and cannot. When I reload the discs for Mac they won't install. Is there anything I can do to put the pics on the SD card, I don't want to throw away the picture frame it cost a lot of money.

This should be perfectly possible and without loading any software at all.
Get a Card Reader for the XD card, and plug it into the Mac. It will then appear on the desktop. Drg the files to the Card. Make sure you keep the folder structure used on the Card - don't change that.
