You probably know that mobilme goes away in June this year. There are two ways to access your mail account on iCloud, either through Lion or via the web. Web access won't get you to all the benefits of iCloud but will allow you to get to Mail, Contacts, Calendar, and Find My iPhone.  See this FAQ: http://www.apple.com/mobileme/transition.html
If you decide to go with Lion, the maximum memory you can install is 4GB, however the system will only use 3GB, which is enough to run Lion. Lion requires 2GB, however, some have not been satisfied with it's performance in 2GB. One source for memory is OWC at http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/memory/MacBook/DDR2/

    I am trying to activate new itunes card. I am getting error message: The code you have entered has not been properly activated. Does this mean the store did something wrong or me?

    Yes, the store didn't properly activate the card. If the store is nearly then you could try going back and asking them to do so, if it isn't (or if they can't/won't help) then try contacting iTunes Support (you will probably need to give them images of the front and back of the card, and possibly its receipt) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then iTunes Cards And Codes

    Does this mean that the warranty still stands as new?

    I had the same problem, though mine was with an iPhone 5.  I phoned the Apple folks and they told me they had the record of my purchase, and indeed my purchase date had been recorded.  It took a couple of weeks, but the data eventually showed up correctly online.

    When you say an email from Apply, do you mean that the sender is named "Apply"?  If so, what is their full email address (e.g. [email protected])?

    Delete and redownload.

  • "This product has been replaced"! what does this mean??!!

    I purchased a used iphone 5s. when I check the serial number it tells that this product has been replaced, what does this mean? am i still able to use it? what should I do??

    It means that the iPhone was returned to Apple because it was defective, and the owner was given or purchased a replacement. That phone can never be used. It was probably stolen in transit to an Apple refurbishing facility.

  • Updating apps and getting wrong email address

    I recently purchased a new iPhone 5S.  On three occasions, the app store has indicated that I have apps to update.  When I click to update, it asks me for a my password but shows the wrong email address.  All three times it is the same address.  This address is not an address that has ever been related to me or anyone in my family.  There is not a problem with any other app updates and this is not happening with my new iPad. I am somewhat worried that I have been hacked already with owning this phone for only 3 weeks.  If you can't help me with this please give me some advice on how to get tech support from Apple because going through their system did not seem to work for me.

    Thanks.  I think this was the second time I had the problem with the one app.  I had some problems (but different) with the other app on my old phone.  I am a little leary that this problem is resolved because with deleting the apps, it is just deleting them from the phone not from the cloud so when I loaded them on the phone I am thinking that I am just loading the same messed up app again.  Both apps that have given me this trouble are very commonly used non-Apple apps.  Anyway, I will come back again if I have problems with this again.

  • I can't remember my security question answers for iTunes and the alternative email address to reset the questions is deactivated. What should I do?

    The email address the security questions are reset from is different from my itunes address and it is deactivated. How do i reset my questions now?

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, clicking here and picking a method for your country, and filling out and submitting this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

  • When i looked in my HD under shared it says "jareds macbook" does this mean someone is logging onto my HD?

    in my hard drive there is a drop down titled "shared" and under that it is listed somone elses name. Why is this there and how do i remove this? I do not know this person and what does it mean?

    Hi, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    It means that someone else is sharing your network.
    How are you connecting? Do you have a wireless router and/or modem? You need to enable encryption (a password) for your network.

  • I have just changed my computer as my old one died... but now cannot access my old itunes account so i have set up a new one with another email address. how can I sync my ipod to my new computer without wiping all my music ?

    I have just tried to sync my ipod to a new computer as my old one died but as I cannot remember my previous log in I created a new itunes account. I now want to sync but it says it will wipe my music off my ipod. Does anyone know how I can do this now ?

    If you have purchases on your iPod Shuffle that you want to sync back to iTunes, but are under the Apple ID you no longer have access to, you'll need to reset that account information. You can use this link to reset your password.
    https://iforgot.apple.com/
    If that doesn' work or help, you'll need to contact iTunes support and have them walk you through the process of resetting the older account information.  Once you know the email and password again, you can authorize your new computer and transfer any purchases from this account back to iTunes.
    For all non-iTunes purchased content, you'll need to the assistance of some sort of third party software that is not supported by Apple. See this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different methods and software available to assist you with the task of copying content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.

  • Truthful about damage, our MacBook air repair order has been canceled. What does this mean?

    My husband spilled a beverage on my Air, and we promptly took it to our local Apple store. I am fully aware that AppleCare does not cover water damage. However, while at the store the genius bar folks informed us (in writing) that they could make a one time exception which reduced the tier four damage from almost $700, to $0. Needless to say this thrilled us, as we were completely prepared to replace the unit out if pocket without argument. Later in the evening I signed into my apple account just to see if it had been mailed to the depot. Apple canceled the repair. I would think postponing it, and then calling us to say "hey, we will need payment for this" would have happened before canceling the repair. I need this machine working ASAP for my work, so to have it canceled during memorial day weekend is very bad for us.
    Basic info:
    1. We fully disclosed that there is water damage
    2. In writing we have a CS code, and written statement "depot repair as a one time exception for customer" listed under proposed resolution
    3. Amount due $0.00
    Now, I don't mind (well, I do mind because it *****) paying for a repair due to my husbands neglect, however I wish a phone call or email communication should have been made prior to outright canceling the repair order.
    What can I do? What does the canceled order mean. we've been loyal apple customers for years, multiple computers, iPhones, I pods, and I pads. The cancellation of our repair order seems odd.

    >while at the store the genius bar folks informed us (in writing)
    Have you contacted the Genius that gave you this information for an explanation?  If his/her name is not on the written statement you received, it should be in Apple's system.
    >What can I do? What does the canceled order mean.
    >I need this machine working ASAP for my work, so to have it canceled during memorial day weekend is very bad for us.
    I would call either the Apple Store or Applecare.  They should be able to help you.
    FWIW, I agree with you 100% that you should have been contacted by Apple.
    EDIT:  Looks like you resolved this while I was typing

  • "cannot save event. no calendar has been set."  what does this mean and how do i fix it?

    I keep getting the error message when I try to enter a new event or edit an existing event to my calendar:

    Any ideas on how to fix it?  VERY inconvenient!
    Thanks.

    Well, there's a lot we don't know ... for example, if you have actually set up a calendar somewhere you're trying to sync to.
    Anyway, with no other information than what you provided, here's a possible troubleshooter:

    If a reset doesn't work, try and force iPad into Recovery Mode:
    1. Turn off iPad. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, slide to turn off.
    2. Connect USB cable to computer
    3. Press and hold the Home button down and connect the docking end of cable to iPad
    4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect To iTune" screen
    5. Release the Home button
    6. Open iTune (make sure you have the newest version of iTune)
    7. You should see "iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode"
    8. Use iTune to restore iPad
    Note: You need to be patient and repeat the above many times to recover your iPad
