Going by your profile > Mac OS X (10.6.8
You need to upgrade to Lion before you can setup an iCloud account which requires Lion v10.7.2.
Make sure your Macs meet Lion's requirements
You can re download Lion for free after the original purchase > Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Once you have Lion installed you can setup the iCloud account on all your Macs. You get 5GB of free storage.

"iCloud requires iOS 5 on iPhone 3GS or later, iPod touch (3rd and 4th generation), iPad, or iPad 2; a Mac computer with OS X Lion; or a PC with Windows Vista or Windows 7 (Outlook 2007 or 2010 or an up-to-date browser is required for accessing email, contacts, and calendars). Some features require a Wi-Fi connection. Some features are not available in all countries. Access to some services is limited to 10 devices."

I have a mac, In"Design CS 5.5, a design gave me a file said it was CS 6, does not open in CS 5.5..Message says "Please upgrade your plug-ins to their latest versions, or upgrade to the latest version of Adobe InDesign." I think I need to buy upgrade from 5.5 to 6. I found one on NextTechDirect for $150 to download. they are not a scam according to "scamadvisor.com."
When I drag the InDesign file that that was supplied by another designer who said it was CS 6 onto my desktop it says CS 5.5. Is that because I only have CS 5.5?
Should I buy this
Adobe InDesign CS6 Upgrade from CS5.5 WIN/MAC [Download] from Next tech....it is obviosly higher on the adobe site and alot of other places?

No one is likely to recommend where you buy your software from other than Adobe in these forums... not so much because of support for Adobe, but mostly because of lack of support/knowledge of any third party vendors. I only know from experience that when you invest in bargain pricing you usually get what you pay for.

Moving to Mac from PC, need to buy everything again ?

I noticed that in my download list there are only Windows downloads, and I'm moving from pc to mac. Do I need to buy everything again or.. ??
I have Production Suite CS5.5 and Photoshop Lightroom.
Thanks

Um, I was hoping someone from the Store team would have answered. What you need to do is call Customer Service, and ask them to process the OS change. You will need to deactivate the serial numbers, uninstall the software, and send them a certificate of destruction for the Windows versions, and they should be able to provide you with keys for Mac.

Confused about word processing on macs - do i need to buy extra software?

Hi, am about to buy a new macbook (first mac- am switching over) but am very confused about the word processing facilities which come with. do i need to buy microsoft office for mac to use word etc or can i use something similar which comes with OS X (is it text edit?)? is this compatible with a word environment at work? thanks!
macbook Mac OS X (10.4.7)

I've personally always hated Microsoft Word, but have it because that's the "standard," and at the time I bought my MacBook, the Intel Mac version of NeoOffice (which is free) wasn't out yet. NeoOffice is now out for Intel-based Macs, and it seems to be every bit as powerful as Microsoft Office (and quite compatible).
However, for most things I do, I've found I actually like Pages the best. It's very easy to use, though if you do any special things in word processing it might not meet all your needs. It will open Word documents, and if you have to send something as a Word document, you can export it in Word format.
I would recommend that you try out the Pages trial that came with your Mac, and download NeoOffice for free. Try them both - go with what you like and what works best for you. I use Pages the most, NeoOffice for things Pages won't do, and Word if I'm forced to. (And I always have my old WordPerfect that I've used for years that I can run in Windows.)

I have Adobe Reader on my computer and want to install Adobe X Standard - Do I need to purchase an upgrade or full version?

You buy a full version. There are no upgrade discounts from a tool that is free, anyway.

I just recently bought a Mac, do i need to buy an antivirus software?

Hello,
I recently bought a MacBook AIr, but im not sure if i need to get some kind of antivirus sofware or not.

No, you do not. However many here install ClamXaV for that 'just in case the sky falls' happenstance.

If I bought a new mac, but have match on my old pc, do I need to buy it again?

Bought a new mac and on my old pc i bought match.
But on my new mac it says i dont have match, do i need to buy it again?

You will just need to sign in to the match service under the store section at the top tool bar. You might need to authorize your apple id as well to work with the new computer.
But the service can be transferred from authorized computer to authorized computer no problem.

I purchased Numbers and Pages for I-Pad, do I need to buy them again for my I-Mac?

I purchased Numbers and Pages for my I-Pad 2; if want them on my I-Mac do I need to buy them again?

You will have to purchase iWork (or the individual apps) for your Mac. The apps you purchased for the iPad are only for iOS.

Do I need to buy anything else?

I am not sure if I want to buy the mac or not and I was wanting to know after i buy the mac to I need to buy anything else like bluetooth services,accessories, etc. It would really help me out.
Thanks!

You may want to add more RAM to it right away. Also, if you plan on keeping it over a year, I would also suggest getting AppleCare.
Shop around the net. You can buy third-party RAM and AppleCare at a substantial savings.

i have three macs... Do I need to buy 3 separate upgrades for lion at $29.99?

No... Because it is distributed via the Mac App Store, it falls under the Mac App Store rules.. Which should mean that you can install it on up to 5 machines that you own.

Xcode. Download it for free from the Mac App Store.

I have two macs in my house. One is newer and came with the os x mountain lion software and the other one needs to be upgraded. I was wondering if there is a way to take upgrade from one to the other? Should not have to buy this software again.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Buy it for the other computer. Mountain Lion is preinstalled on the new Mac, but you can only use it in the new one
