I can't find the icloud icon on the system preferences menu. There is only a Mobile me icon. I can't set up my icloud.

my mac os is 10.6.8 and when I try to upgrade, says I have most up to date software.
You do. 10.6.8 is the latest update to 10.6.
10.7 Lion or 10.8 Mountain Lion are paid upgrades. Buy 10.8 in the Mac App Store if your Mac is compatible by searching for "Mountain Lion." If not, call Apple to order 10.7 Lion after making sure your Mac meets the requirements.

My old computer crashed and I lost my Ipod, how do I download the music to a new on?

So about 2 years ago I got the Ipod touch, and a while after my computer crashed. I never put the music onto a new computer, because the Ipod allowed me to download music there and then. But now I have lost my Ipod-touch and have a buch of songs still on my account. So I was wondering if there is a way to recover my songs, and put them on a new computer(PC), without having to restart.

No.
All iTunes content on your iPod Touch should be in your iTunes library on your computer, and your iTunes library on your computer should be included with your computer's backup along with all other important data - stored on an external drive or some other external media used for backup purposes only.
When music was purchased on a CD, if the CD was lost and you returned to the store where the CD was purchased with your receipt, were you given a replacement CD?
The same applies here.

Help please I can not openening because: Error opening the document, Acrobat can not open the file while printing another document

Help, I ca not opening the file, beacause the mac says Error opening the document, Acrobat can not open the while printing another document

Thank you very much for your replies Taggert_77 & swmtgoet_x :D
Taggert77_: I have never used NetBeans. I only installed it in the bundle as I had read on another post that somehow installing the bundle magically helped another user with the same problem (he didn't know why it worked after that either).
Before XP SP3 I was able to execute .jar file through cmd prompt. Now I am not.
This file is executable, grab it and you will see. Here is a screen shot (program in front is FlashFXP, behind is the cmd prompt and what should happen):http://www.freeimagehosting.net/uploads/53273b4ddf.jpg
swmtgoetx_: I only did the other cmd's to try to make it spit out something, anything lol :D
The proper cmd is simply: java -jar soht-client-0.6.2.jar
I did give your cmd a try, and it produced nothing :( (just like the other correct cmds)
java -client -jar soht-client-0.6.2.jar soht.properties
Thank you again...the mystery remains
PS. If you do a search for this you'll find an amazing amount of XP SP3 users with the same problem and no solution posted that I could find except one chap that did the unistall install order that I did above).

I can't set up icloud on my older macbook. The systems preferences has only "mobile me". I have lots of files on this computer that I want to transfer.

How do you set up icloud on an older macbook? It is full of files that I want to keep. The system preferences menu does not have icloud. It has mobile me. Do I have to upgrade the operating system to, say, mountain lion? Does anyone know how to solve this problem? I want to give the old one to my granddaughter.

You have to update to Lion at least to get basic iCloud functions, and if you want full iCloud functions, then you need to upgrade to Mountain Lion.

I have new pc and it has windows 8 i am lost how do i download past purchases from itune

how do i download past purchases from i tunes into my new computer? I know nothing about where to go to get the songs purchased except into my account page.

Hello missskye1,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
For more information, take a look at:
Downloading past purchases from the iTunes Store, App Store, and iBooks Store
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519
Using iTunes 11 or later
Open iTunes. (You can download the latest version of iTunes.)
If you're not already signed in, choose Store > Sign In and type your Apple ID and password.
If you're in the iTunes Store, click the Library button, in the upper-right corner, to go to your library.
Make sure that you have "Show iTunes in the Cloud Purchases" enabled in your iTunes preferences by going to iTunes > Preferences in the Store tab and clicking OK.
In your iTunes library, click the content type you wish to download using the content selector in the upper-left. Choose Music to download music, Movies to download movies, and so on.
Locate the item or title you wish to download.
Click the download icon to download that item.
Have a nice day,

I have iPhone 3G 8Gb with iOs 4.2.1 how can i download skype,viber,temple run of old version??? where do i get these apps for my iPhone

I have iPhone 3G 8Gb with iOs 4.2.1 how can i download skype,viber,temple run of old version??? where do i get these apps for my iPhone

You don't. The only place to obtain apps for any iPhone is the app store. However, most, if not all of those apps won't run/install on an iPhone 3G. iOS 4.2.1 is the end of the line for your phone & most developers no longer support it.

System Preferences menu have not change with the update

I just updated from 10.6.6 to 10.8.4 tonight and the first thing I noticed is the reversed scrolling (which is a horrid idea in my opinion for a laptop). I went to youtube and watched several videos showing me how to to my system preferences -> Track Pad -> Scrolling and Zooming tab -> Unselect natural Scrolling.
However, when I go to my system preferences -> Track Pad I only have one tab and it is the exact same as my 10.6.6 system preference menu and not the new one that everyone shows on the youtube videos.
How can I fix my system preferences to be updated and how can I go back to normal scrolling? Old habits are hard to die after 5-6 years on my laptop doing it the normal way...

Nevermind. I found a check box that is labeled "When using gestures to scroll or navigate, move content in the direction of finger movement." The box was found above the tracking speed and double click speed.
I am still curious on why I do not have the three tab options that everyone has.

The System Preference:Desktop&Screensaver will not open. I get a rotating circle that never stop rotating. I have to do a Force Stop.

Quit System Preferences if it's running. In the Finder, hold down the option key and select
Go ▹ Library
from the menu bar. From the Library folder, delete the following item, if it exists:
Caches/com.apple.systempreferences
and move the following item to the Desktop:
Preferences/com.apple.desktop.plist
Launch System Preferences and test. If you still have the issue, put the item on the Desktop back where it came from and post again. Otherwise, delete the item.

HT2490 I can't find System Preferences on my Mac. I can locate the Apple menu and click on the System Preferences tab, but the System Preferences refuses to launch. Help!

I think it must be missing from the Applications folder.
Do you have your 10.4 Install Disc to do an Archive & Install?

I have mac os x 10.6.8. The system preferences doesn't show java at all. How can I install java please?

Hi!
I have mac os x 10.6.8. The system preferences doesn't show java at all. How can I install java please?

Don't change your story now. You did not say through Apple, you first gave a link to this site,
http://www.java.com/en/download/apple.jsp
You said, "Go there and download the latest version of Java"
that plainly says,
"Mac OS X Version 10.6 and below
Use Software Update available on the Apple menu to check that you have the most up-to-date version of Java 6 for your Mac."
This corroborates me saying that Java for Mac OS 10.6 is done through Software Update, no where else.
If any Mac OS 10.6 user does not have Java on their Mac, they get it from Apple just as the link you provided shows it is from Apple. Not Oracle. You have provided the evidence that plainly contradicts yourself.
This is your second link that is to Apple.
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1573
Just to go over this again. Software Update not only updates Java to the latest, but if Java does not exist at all, SU will install it from scratch. And in doing so will be the latest version.
Providing a link to Oracle's site is useless information that does not get Java installed on a Mac running 10.6.

Some how I have deleted the system Preferences application. I had already deleted everything from the trash bend before I realized system pref. was deleted. How can I recover or get it downloaded?

Somehow I have deleted the system Preferences application. I had already deleted everything from the trash bend before I realized system pref. was deleted. How can I recover or get it downloaded? Everything has been transferred to my new mac pro, but would like to give this old mac to son-in-law. Can I download system preferences back into this old mac?

How Restore Deleted or Missing OS X Components
A few of the basic OS X installed applications can be restored from the Optional Installs installer located in the Optional installs folder on your Installer DVD. However, if what you need is not there then follow the instructions below.
How to Use Pacifist to Restore Deleted or Missing OS X Components
Insert the OS X Installer DVD into the optical drive. Use a simple utility like TinkerTool to toggle invisibility so you can see invisible items. Alternatively, open the Terminal application in your Utilities folder and at the prompt enter the following:
defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles Yes
Press RETURN.
To turn off the display of invisible files repeat the above command substituting No for Yes.
The install packages are located in the /System/Installation/ folder on the DVD.
Download the shareware utility Pacifist. Use it to extract a fresh copy of the missing item(s) from the file archives on your OS X installation DVD. The file archives are in the /System/Installations/ folder (use Go to Folder option in the Go menu of the Finder.)
Here are Four Basic ways to use Pacifist (courtesy of George Orville.)
Drag a .pkg icon onto the Pacifist window .....proceed to step 7.
Click on “Open Package ....” and navigate to package desired and click “Open” in the open/save window.....proceed to step 7.
Insert Mac OS X installer CD and when it mounts, navigate to .... Menu->Go->Go to Folder. In the path field enter or paste ....
/Volumes/disc name/System/Installation/Packages (where disc name is the name of the CD/DVD that you inserted.)
Click on the "Go" button ..... • Drag a .pkg to Pacifist..... proceed to step 7.
The package you'll need will have to be discovered by trial and error, but for most applications you should start with the Essentials.pkg and/or Additional Essentials.pkg.
D. Insert your Mac OS X install disk 1 .... and open Pacifist.
1.          In Pacifist, select "Open Mac OS X Install Packages" ... dialog may appear asking for disk 2, then disk 3 and finally disk 1 again.... {if DVD is not used)...If “Stop Loading” is selected...the procedure will stop!!!
2a. When loading is complete, a new window appears, click the triangle to display contents of each package...Select item and proceed to step 7.
2b.          or click the “Find” icon in the Pacifist window and type the name of the software you need.
3.          In the list that comes back, click the top most entry for the item that you want. ..... that is the one for the English language.
4.          On the top of the Pacifist window, click “verify” .... you will probably be prompted for your password.
5.          Enter checks for.... “verify permissions” and “verify file contents.” and click “verify” ....enter password when prompted.... you will get back output which may look like this:
          20 files were scanned. 20 of 20 files were present on the hard disk. 0 of 20 files had file permissions that did not match those specified in the package. 0 of 20 files had checksums that did not match those specified in the package.
6.          Click “close”. Go to step 7.
Extract or Install........
7.          In the Toolbar (upper left), you now have the option to extract or install. Click a file in the lower list and those two icons will be enabled.
8.          If “Extract to...” is selected.... navigate to the location where the file will be placed, select “choose”, select “extract” in new dialog that appears,authenicate , if prompted, click “OK”.
9.          In the next dialog, click “Extract”.
10.          If “Install” is selected... dialog will appear with the location/path of the installed software. Click “Install”
11.          Type in your password, click “OK”
Pacifist will begin to extract files.
12.          In steps 8/10ß.... you also have the choice to “cancel”
Notes:          Pacifist may find that a file it is installing already exists on the hard disk. Pacifist will present you with an alert panel....
Stop
Leave original alone
Update .....
Default selection
Replace .... (Replace option should only be used on full install packages)

Not rally a question, just wanted to share my absolute frustration with the update of iTunes...this is, without a shadow of a doubt THE WORST application i have EVER used, Mac or PC! And that's saying something with the amount of PC dross that's out there

Pull down View > Show Sidebar. This will give you back the same functionality of iTunes 10.x.x.

I have a 2010 Macbook Pro and am a very new user to Mac community. My Mac is just hanging and I am unable to shut it down or do anything at all. I left it for 2.5 days hoping the battery will run flat but it is not working. Pls help! I am desperate. Tx

I have a 2010 Macbook Pro and am a very new user to Mac community only started to use this PC a few weeks ago.
My Mac is just hanging and I am unable to shut it down or do anything at all. I left it for 2.5 days hoping the battery will run flat but it is not working. Pls help! I am desperate. Tx

In order to resolve the issue if it occurs again, more info would be helpful as to what occurred prior to the "hang." One potential fix would be to try a Safe Boot:
After the Mac is completely shut down, push the power button and immediately after the startup tone, hold down the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone but not before.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
There should be a message that says "SafeBoot." After the Mac is completely booted, try restarting and see if the issue is gone.

Since upgrading to Yosemite my macbook pro keeps going to sleep if I am not using it. I want it to stay on as I leave it doing things overnight etc. It was fine before the upgrade and I have all the system preference set to "never turn off"

Since upgrading to Yosemite my macbook pro keeps going to sleep if I am not using it. I want it to stay on as I leave it doing things overnight (cd's / recording etc. It was fine before the upgrade and I have all the system preference set to "never turn off" - Help !!!

Good advice from Linc Davis that should sort out your query i think...
However you dont want to set your MBP to never go to sleep...
Adjust reasonable sleep settings...
And the download an APP called caffiene...
When you click it you can have your MBP never go to sleep with a single click of your menu bar... and with another click it can go to sleep normally to maintain the laptop...
Simply click the cup... To toggle never sleep/sleep
