I have an iCloud account that I can access directly (web or iPhone), but my iMac only allows access to MobileMe in System Preferences.
If I log into MobilMe through System Preferences, I get an error stating that my password or ID is incorrect, but if I select 'Learn More' I am redirected to the MobileMe site where I can log in with my Apple ID and password. From there I can select to be directed to iCloud. How do I get the iCloud link into System Preferences?
You don't.
You log onto iCloud.com through Safari/web browser.

I have an icloud account which I can access via the web but when I go to systems preferences and click on the icloud it sends me to the mobileme closed site?? How do I get it to go to my icloud log in?
You're saying that when you click on the iCloud preference pane button it sends you to the defunct MMe
rather than giving you this?
Is your profile up to date, i.e. are your running 10.7.5? Make sure you click on the iCloud button and not the MMe button.

I am going off to college soon and I need to create a separate iTunes and iCloud and the whole nine yards if possible. I currently share icloud and everything with my mom and my brothers phones. Is it possible to move over all of the music the I have previously purchased as well? Also the computer that has our iTunes account on it recently crashed. Is there a way to move the account to another computer?
Hi Rileycarline,
You can easily have an iCloud account that is separate from the Apple ID that is used for iTunes purchases. Take a look at the article below to walk you through that specific setup process of have an account for iCloud and one for Store purchases.

I have an iCloud account that is different from my apple account. How can I recover the forgotten password
Hello Bgenie
If you have forgotten the password to that Apple ID, then go to My Apple ID and you will see and option to reset your password. You will need to answer the security questions or if you have a rescue email address set up you can get it sent to that email to reset the password. Check out the article for more information.

I HAVE AN ICLOUD ACCOUNT THAT I NEED TO DELETE, BUT I'VE FORGOTTEN THE PASSWORD AND/OR THE SECURITY QUESTIONS. SO, I CAN'T RESET IT BY EMAIL BECAUSE THE ADDRESS I USED IS NO LONGER ACTIVE.
You need to ask Apple to reset its security questions. To do this, click here and pick a method; if that page doesn't list one for your country or you're unable to call, fill out and submit this form.

I have 2 iphones, 1 personal and 1 business. I thought I was supposed to have 2 separate itunes accounts. I now have a work ipad and want to only have 1 itunes account that I can use for all 3 devices. How do I cancel 1 account or just combine the 2?
I want to be able to transfer my apps from my original itunes account that I have on my personal iphone 3 and work ipad 3 to my work iphone 4S ,as well as purchase more more apps for the work iphone with the original itunes account. Plus I need to sync all 3 of them with my work tower computer. I really appreciate you're trying to help me out.

I keep trying to reset an icloud account that is disabled because I forgot the password but is not able too. I tried changing it but there seem to be some mix up in the icloud ID and the gmail email address. HELP PLEASE!!
Your password was sent to your emergency email address. Perhaps you have an email you never use? I use the free email from my cable TV account as my emergency email.
Your Apple account and cloud account are separate. You could even have completely different user and password. Most of us use the same user ID and password, but they are not the same thing, don't mix them up.
If you can't retrieve emergency email, you will have to call apple support.

Do I have to have an iTunes account before i can set up my first iPhone
does a person have to have an iTunes account before they can set up their first iPhone? I've had and apple ID for so long I don't remember the answer to this question. A friend asked me and I felt silly because I couldn't answer.
An AppleID is an iTunes account.

I received an email from Icloud support that I used 4.8gb of storage out of 5.0 available. When I check on systems preferences, i show only using 228mbs. Please advise?
The message probably was sent by mistake. Ignore it, unless you have problems with the iCloud email address

Hello community,
I cannot find the icloud on my macbook pro and I have anew iphone 5. how do i get the icloud on the macbook pro?If your mac book pro still has mobileme in System Preferences but no icloud icon, then you need to upgrade the OSX to 10.7.2 or higher (Mountain Lion is 10.8.x).
By the way, if you never migrated from mobileme to icloud, then it's now way too late to do that. All your mobileme data has been deleted and you'll need to set up a new icloud account. -
