Can I share my iCloud folders with others? If so, how?

This is something for the Apple engineers to answer. I too would like the ability to share folders and/or individual files a la Dropbox.
I've written about some of my complaints with the service so far on this discussion thread: Ways to make competitive with Dropbox

    Can i share my iCloud calendar with others? If so, how?

    do you mean, the 'Publish' option? That only gives me two options 1 mobile me, which is now defunct. and 2 a private server, which I don't understand. thanks!
    sorry, after a further read, the comment was about icloud not ical. I don't have icloud because I don't have Lion because it doesn't work well with FCP7. So I don't know how to share my ical. Can you help?

  • HT201317 I have a MobileMe account and have shared many MobileMe Galleries.  MobileMe Galleries are going away in June.  How can I share a photo album with others using iCloud?

    I have a MobileMe account and have shared many MobileMe Galleries.  MobileMe Galleries are going away in June.  How can I share a photo album with others using iCloud?

    The new ios version of iPhoto allows sharing.  Here's a blurb from Apple's web site:
    There’s the old way of creating photo galleries, then there’s the iPhoto way. Select a group of photos and iPhoto automatically flows them into a beautiful journal that’s fun to personalize and share online. Touch a photo to make it bigger or smaller. Or drag it to a different spot on the screen. iPhoto adjusts the page around whatever you’re doing, so your journal always looks great. You can even add captions, maps, dates, and weather — giving family and friends the big picture at a glance.
    More things you can do:
    With iPhoto, there’s more than one way to share a photo. Post pictures directly to Facebook, Flickr, or Twitter. Play an impromptu slideshow on your iPad or iPhone. Or stream photos to your HDTV to give your big moments room to shine.
    I have not used ios version of iPhoto to share "journals" and I'm not sure this is part of iCloud or not.  You'll have to do a google search on "ios iphoto" and read up of this journal thing.  As far as I know, this is the only way of sharing photos.  I'm not sure whether other friends use a browser to view these journals or whether they need something special.  Any way - search around to find answers.

    Can I share my iCloud storage with my wife? I'm interested in using the storage for both phones, hers and mine.

    You will not want to do that and you should just have two 5GB free accounts.
    Too much risk of merging or losing data.

  • Can I share my iCloud Photostream with someone else with a different Apple ID? How?

    Can I share my iCloud Photostream with someone else with a different Apple ID? How?

    Yeah no kidding.
    I have a big paid up MobileMe account with tons of gallery stuff - this will all go away for me in July, and I'll miss it - it took no learning to use, and it was built into everything - just intuitive to post to a gallery password protect it, and send a link to a friend.  Click click done!
    It bothers me a lot when features I really enjoy and use are pulled in these half baked new apps and services.
    iMovie used to be quite good, but the new one is very restrictive - it's a step backwards in some ways.
    MobileMe was fine, but iCloud takes away the Gallery???? - another step backward.
    We use some iPhones at work for shooting some videos and technical engineering photo's, and while it's pretty cool that the iPhone photo's get put on the photostream of "Jason's iMac", I don't have instant access, and I would really like to be able to do that. If it could be done, then I can stay at home and work sometimes and I can get the photo's automagically.  
    Apple - please fix this.

  • I bought a Mountain Lion upgrade for $20 off the Apple site. I have four other Macs all under the same ID. How can I share the new OS with other computers. Or can I?

    You can share it with other Macs under your control (not your neighbor's).  You just need to be logged in under the buying AppleID for updates or to download again.

  • How can you share only specific folders with windows

    I took the following steps to share my macbookpro files with my desktop windows XP sp3. I am using a router to connect these two computers.
    1)system preferences > sharing > file sharing > options > CHECK BOX "share files and folders using SMB (Windows)" >check box 'on' my one of the 2 accounts on macbookpro> hit ''Done'' > GREEN red dot next to "Windows Sharing: on"
    2) I then added 3 FOLDERS to the "shared folders:" list on 'system preferences > sharing > file sharing'
    3) system preferences > network > Location >"automatic" in the drop down menu > hit edit location and create a new location with the default name "Automatic Copy" Go to Advanced> WINS > change work group to "MSHOME" (this is the name of work group on my desktop windows pc)
    4) system preferences > accounts > other accounts> guest accounts: check the blue box " Allow guests to connect to shared folders"
    5) go to my network places on xp. > click add a network place>Next>choose another network location>Next>Browse>entire network>Microsoft windows nework>Mshome>Macbookpro>clicked on the folder ”my account from my step #1 "
    Now ALL files on this account on my macbook are shared with my desktop.
    THIS IS INTERESTING AS IN STEP 1, I Had given permission to share ONLY 3 FOLDERS and I do not want to share every single macbook folder from my account with this desktop.
    Please help. I have been unable to fix it. I am very new to mac world.

    You'll have to open another iCloud account - you can't share access to just part of the email account.
    Go to http://appleid.apple.com and create a new ID - you will need a different non-Apple email address to do this.
    Sign in with it in System Preferences>Mail, Contacts and Calendars and enable 'Mail' in the checklist there. You should be asked to create a new @icloud.com address.
    This account will then appear alongside your present one in Mail. Your lawyer can access it in the usual way - if he doesn't have a Mac he can set the account up manually using the server settings here:

  • Can you share an icloud calendar with someone using gmail?

    I manage all my calendars on icloud and want to share one of them with my partner, who uses gmail and android phone. The events do not show up on his phone. This is because its not possible to do this or because we are doing something wrong?

    You can only share a read/write calendar with another iCloud member. You can share a read-only calendar with a non-member: the recipient can subscribe to it in iCal. Just get them to open an iCloud account if they have Lion on their Mac.

  • Can I share an icloud calendar with a person who has no apple id?

    As soon as I switched to iCloud my shared mobile me calendar no longer updated.  It appears that to now share, all parties must be an iCloud subscriber.  The person with whom I share this calendar is not an Apple user and has no interest in acquiring an iCloud account.    She does, however, need to view my calendar.  Are there steps I am missing to allow her to view the calendar in either outlook, or using a web based format as was available before the change?
    Thanks!

    I didn't explain correctly. Right now I share (subscribe) a calendar on Mobile Me , in addition to my own personal calendar. That shared calendar is staying on Mobile Me and I need to be able to access it once I move my personal calendar to iCloud. That is, if I use iCloud can I share calendars that are not on iCloud, but are on MobileMe?
    You can't do this: when you migrate your MobileMe account to iCloud the calendars will be transferred there and no longer available on MobileMe.
    You can share calendars privately or publicly from iCloud: private calendars can only be viewed by nominated iCloud members; public calendars can be viewed by anybody in a CalDAV client such as iCal or Google Calendar (though they are non-editable).

  • Can't share my iCloud calendars with 30 boxes

    Was using 30 boxes to post my iCloud calendars to my website (as a former Apple employee, I get that certain features have to be worked out; but really not being able to host calendars on a webpage or share with google for years is just plain sad...especially when it's for such petty reasons) for quite some time with no problems. After I updated to Yosemite, I re-organized my calendars and realized they were no longer updating to my 30boxes calendar. I tried to re-sync them, but now 30boxes won't recognize any of the webcal links. As I use this calendar on my business' website it's caused major confusion with my staff and I'm trying to desperately get my calendar back up without having to switch entirely to google calendar.
    I'd love to be able to ask 30boxes about this, but they have no support forum and it seems likely that this is one in a long line of iCloud compatibility issues. I heard about 30boxes on this forum (sadly it was the closest thing to a fix anyone here has been able to point to for a lot of Apple's calendar problems) so I'm hoping others here have a work around, or maybe another 3rd party site I can use? I really don't care how, I just want to share my calendars with the my non-macintosh employees easily.
