I can't find icloud in system preferences?

I can not find icloud in preferences? Do I need to do something. I did go to LION

Your profile states that you are using OSX 10.6.8. What exactly do you mean when you say "I did go to lion". Do you have lion or not, OSX 10.7.2 or better is required for iCloud.

Can't find iCloud in system preferences-

when I try to update it says I have the latest software BUT it is only 10.6.8 and iCloud says it needs 10.7.2 Suggestions?

I would have thought the message you got was pretty obvious. You need to upgrade to Lion 10.7.2 to make use of iCloud.
Lion is a paid upgrade available from the App Store.

I just updated to the new operating system which i'm starting to think was a bad idea, because it reset all my settings and I don't know how to fix them.

so when I go to safari>preferences>security>uncheck box labled enable java script links on webpages don't work and pictures and links son't want to appear on websites. this made it so webpages don't want to work past loading the content in text format. I have to check enable java script to go the webpages to work right so images and links work again but when I try to apply for this job the error message pops up saying I need to enable cookies and java script.
SO I GUESS MY QUESTION IS IF JAVA SCRIPT IS ALREADY ENABLED HOW TO I ENABLE COOKIES?

HT204053 I have installed the latest version of Apple but still can't see ICloud in System Preferences- how can I fix this?

Lion is required to see the iCloud Preference Pane: this is an upgrade, not an update, and has to be paid for. If you want to install Lion, go to the Mac App Store and purchase and download it there ($29.99).
First check that your Mac meets the requirements for Lion:
Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
2GB of memory
OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
7GB of available space

I installed time machine but I can't find it in system preferences?

I installed time machine but I can't find it in system preferences? How do I access it? Light is green but is it backing up?

???
You installed Time Machine or Time Capsule? Time Machine is part of Leopard (OS X 10.5.x). If you are referring to Time Capsule, you set it up via AirPort Utility. You should have the install disk. If you are talking about Time Machine, can you confirm you have OS X 10.5.x? Your signature indicates you only have Tiger (OS X 10.4.11). If that is correct, you need to upgrade to Leopard.

Can I lock iCloud in system preferences

I want to use the iCloud to track multiple Mac products that go out regularly as rental equipment. I have set up iCloud on all the Macs so currently I am tracking them but I want to be able to lock it within the system preferences so that you can't sign out. I'd like to know if it's possible so I don't have to use additional tracking software. Any ideas or suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Welcome to the Apple community.
Your profile states that you are using OS X 10.5.6, iCloud comes as part of the rate pertains system OS X 10.7.2 or better, if your profile is correct, that is why you cannot find iCloud in your system preferences.

Can't access iCloud in system preferences ... crashes computer!

With the latest iCloud update, I can not access the iCloud preferences within system preferences. When I try, I get a spinny ball and then a total crash of my computer, to the point where the mouse takes several minutes to move across the screen. I thought I'd give it time at one point, hoping the computer would need some time to process, but after 20 minutes it was still stalling... I tried several times after rebooting the computer, and still the same thing.
Perhaps this has something to do with my syncing my iPhone and iPad with the computer... I do have double entries in my iMac's ical, and I'm wondering if that has anything to do with the iCloud stalling? I do notice that whenever I open iCal on my iMac, it has a perpetual "Updating..." note at the top...
What's going on and when can we (I know I'm not the only one here complaining of these issues) expect an update to fix this?

Hi,
have the same problems,
no way to use Mail anymore
no way to access iCloud preferences
no way to access email accounts preferences
and sometimes even the keyboard is no longer working.
So for beeing a Mac user since 1984 Maverick this is the lousiest "Downgrade" I ever experienced. At least now I know why it is for free: it is worthless!
So now I only hope that after countless hours of troubleshooting, reinstalling Mavericks, etc. , Apple will have the decency to solve these problems fast. With billions of dollars hoarded, they seem unable to programm a working mail application?

Can't find dictation under system preferences

ok so i JUST bought a new macbook pro from the apple store yesterday. it has the newest os system, mountain lion. at the store, an emplyee showed me on a display mac pro that by pressing the fn butting twice, it brought up dictation. However, when i do that with my mac, its not coming u. when i go into system preferences, the only option i see is called "speech". when i click it, it says nothing about dictation. do i need Pages to make this work? help please!! thanks

Welcome to Apple Communities
Open  > About this Mac, and if it says 10.7.4, you use Lion. http://www.apple.com/osx/uptodate

Why do I sometimes suddenly lose Bluetooth from my Imac? I use it for my wireless mouse and keyboard. I then can't find it in system preferences but have to shutdown my Mac and hope it comes back

This is an infuriating problem and wondered if it happens to other people too and if I am doing the right thing by turning the Mac off then on again.

TS4009 can`t find icloud

Can`t find iCloud in System Preferences or anywhere else . I need to find it to upgrade the maile storage. Any ideas where it might be?

iCloud requires OS X Lion (10.7.5) or higher. If you’re running OS X 10.6.8 or earlier you will need to upgrade to OS X Lion higher in order to set up iCloud on your Mac. First check to see if your system meets the system requirements to upgrade.
Lion system requirements are:
Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
2GB of memory
OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
7GB of available space
Mountain Lion and Mavericks requirements are the same, as listed here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5842.
If you can run Mavericks, you can download a free upgrade from the Mac App Store. If your system can only run Lion, you can go here to purchase a redemption code to download it from the Mac App Store. If you prefer Mountain Lion for software compatibility reasons, you can go here to purchase a redemption code to download it from the Mac App Store.
After upgrading, you will find iCloud in System Preferences>iCloud on your Mac, and can set it up as explained here: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/mac.html.
Before upgrading, you may want to check the compatibility of your existing applications by checking here: http://roaringapps.com/apps:table. Also be aware that older PPC programs such as AppleWorks and Office 2004 for Mac will not run on OS X Lion or higher.

I can't find icloud icon

On my MacBook Pro in Syst Preferences, I don't see an iCloud icon. Where would it be?

Welcome to the Apple community.
If your profile is correct, then you won't find iCloud in system preferences. iCloud only comes with OS X 10.7.2 or better, your profile states that you are using OS X 10.6.8, if so you need to upgrade your operating system.

I can't log into iCloud using system preferences using Apple Id

Hello comunity: I describe the problem as follows (sorry for my english, not a native speaker):
Background: Macbook air OS X 10.9 Mavericks (just updated), but changed my Apple ID just after that.
-When I try to log into Icloud through System Preferences, and write my Apple ID and password, it says "the login keychain is not found" and then it tells me that the server is down and can´t connect. (I have verified my Apple ID and password and can login through the website with no problem, and I have verified that the Icloud server is fine).
-It won´t let me go any further than that, It means I cant use Icloud in my Mac. I can access to Icloud online, but when online I don´t see my mac but I can see my Iphone and Ipad 2.
-I have read many (a lot really) about keychains and similar problems and cant find the solution.
I would appreciate your help!
PD: Other information that might be related: When entering to First Aid Keychain, I provide my password and when I hit "repair" it will tell me "...library/keychains/login.keychain is not a valid keychain file and that repair stopped unexpectedly"

I think that is likely why you're having the problems with signing in. My keychain has been added to over many years. It has email addresses from 1997. I don't know how to clean that up. It would be nice if Apple redesigned Keychain Access to be something that actually allowed you to envisage their network. That's what bothered me about iCloud Keychain. There are so many places to change settings, type a password, and think about what that setting means. Knowledgable people who can manage a network from the Terminal, good for you. I want to launch software that finds all servers, and paints a good connection green and trouble yellow, etc. Hover your mouse over a red drive, it tells you the password needs. I think this is good enough implementation, except it is difficult for people who've never had a cryptography class to get a good idea of what their network topography is. Tell me, can you log on to iCloud.com on Safari?
I'll hang around here to see if somebody else gives a suggestion. Sorry I can't do more.

Reset key chain DID NOT, work for me, and I renamed the backup it made back to the original. (Note to others: I may have had permissions or other issues due to the way I upgraded to Mountain Lion by creating a new user and moving things over manually.)
HERE IS HOW I FIXED IT: (I don't know what the ramifications are, so this will make you a backup too.)
I threw away my Library > Application Support > iCloud folder.
In the Finder, choose Go, hold down the option key (alt) and choose Library which will appear in the menu.
Navigate to Library > Application Support and option-drag the iCloud folder to your desktop (that will make a copy).
Now drag the iCloud folder that is in Library > Application Support to the trash, enter your administrators password when prompted.
Then try entering your info in the Preference Panel again.

Can't login to iCloud via System Preferences

I am trying to login to iCloud through System Preferences but each time I get a message saying "You can't sign in at this time. Try signing in again".
I've read about moving the iCloud folder from the Application Support folder, to the desktop, which didn't help.
Does anyone have the same issue since upgrading to Yosemite?
