  • HT1414 I am still on Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and do not have iCloud in my System Preferences. I have registered with iCloud online and backed up my iphone5 last night to my iMac. Where can I find the backup on my iMac?

    I am still on Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and do not have iCloud in my System Preferences. I have registered with iCloud online and backed up my iphone5 last night to my iMac. Where can I find the backup on my iMac?
    Below is what comes up when I sign into iCloud - where are all the other applications that I need to backup?
    Appreciate any answers to this query?

    Your question is unclear.  If you're backing up to your iMac, (via iTunes, with cable or WiFi), this has nothing to do with iCloud and the backup is stored on your iMac here:
    : ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/

  • HT4859 I have problem with my IPAD2, there is meesage that IPAD hasn;t been backed up in 1 weeks. Backups happen when this IPAD is plugged in, locked, and connected to Wi-Fi. And then I press OK below those message, but nothing happen and can't do anythin

    I have problem with my IPAD2, there is meesage that IPAD hasn;t been backed up in 1 weeks. Backups happen when this IPAD is plugged in, locked, and connected to Wi-Fi. And then I press OK below those message, but nothing happen and can't do anything too. I push start button, they appear but still "can't reach them". Anybody knows how to fix it back to normal?

    Go to Settings, iCloud, and then Storage and Backup.  You will then see a button to backup your iPad.  It may be that you have much stuff (i.e. photos, apps) for it to do a full backup but you will be able to tell what the estimated backup should be and what it will consist of so that you can choose to prune down items.  If you don't want to backup and get rid of the messages you can just turn backup off from this area as well.

  • I have Lion and iCloud.  There are two very annoying problems.  mFirst, in the middle of writing or research the window gets yanked to the right.  Sometimes it can be retrieved and sometimes it can't.  sec on, in the course of research on Safari, or work

    I have recently upgraded to Lion and iCloud.  There are two very annoying quirks that i don't know how to fix:
    1-When working with word, documents or emails in the middle of a sequence the picture or window suddenly is yanked off the screen to the right.  More often than not it can't be retrieved.  This happens often
    2-In the same mode as in #1 above the print size will suddenly increase maybe by a factor of 3x or 4x.  it happens spontaneously.
    3-There are many other problems with the upgrade:
         -With sequence emails the secondary emails are not printed.  When one tries to open those emails it often fails.
         -The new address book format is crap.  it is very difficult to go from single listings to group listings and back.
    It's obviousto me the Apple software designers are not users.
    So how can i fix #1 & 2 above.

    Microsoft Word?  What version and service pack?
    Microsoft Office 2011 SP2 includes Word version 14.2.2.  Some Office 2011 updates addressed problems with Lion.

  • I am trying to download the newest Itunes to windows 7. I did have a previous version that I used the control panel to delete. When I click on download, I get a small partial window in the upper left corner showing Internet Explorer Cannot Display the Web

    I did have a previous version of Itunes and Quicktime that I used the control panel Uninstall to remove. When I do the download, I get a small window in the upper left saying Internet Explorer Cannot Display Webpage. It is trying to get to ....itunes64setup.  I did check to see that all old Apple directorories, etc have been delete. Help!

    Okay. Let's see if you've acquired some kind of restriction for the download site. These settings checks/changes apply to the IE downloads, so we'll be trying to use IE again.
    Head into your Internet Options control panel, and click the Security tab. Click Restricted Sites.
    Check to see if the following website is listed as a restricted site:
    appldnld.apple.com.edgesuite.net
    If it is, remove it from your list of restricted sites and try another download.
    If still no joy, head back into the security tab of the Internet Options control panel. Click Trusted Sites this time. Click the "Sites" button.
    Add appldnld.apple.com.edgesuite.net as a trusted site. Uncheck the "Require server verification" box. Now click OK and try another download.

  • If I have an iphone that didn't come with icloud, is there a way to get icloud on it so I can use it with my ipad 4?

    If I have an iphone that didn't come with icloud, is there a way to get icloud on it so I can use it with my ipad 4?  I think my iphone is a 3g, not sure.

    Do I have to have iTunes on my PC in order to update my iPhone. I'd rather not have my computer linked with my iPad and phone. I'd like to just keep it between iPad and iPhone. I don't have a computer of my own.

  • MBP will not register with iCloud servers (and most iCloud features + Handoff and Continuity do not work)

    Hi all,
    I have an extremely strange issue on my rMBP which has not been solved yet despite over 2 hours on the phone with Apple support, and another hour after being put through to a Senior Advisor, and several online chats.
    I have a Apple Certified Refurbished Late 2013 Retina Macbook Pro, which has a 2.3Ghz i7, 16GB of RAM, 500 Flash Storage and the NVIDIA discrete graphics. It was purchased in December 2014 on the Apple Store. It is running 10.10.2.
    For some reason, my computer WILL NOT register with iCloud. Messages and Facetime both would not work, my iPhone 4S which is capable of text message forwarding would not recognise it and allow me to turn it on. Handoff, Continuity and Instant Hotspot - basically any of the features to do with iCloud or connecting to another device - do not work.
    Originally I believed it was just an issue with Messages and Facetime so I reinstalled the OS back to 10.10.1, but that did not solve the problem. All my Messages contacts kept on coming back as 'not registered with iMessage' and I could not turn on SMS Relay either.
    I contacted Apple on Wednesday night and ended up talking to several different people, the Senior Advisor was the most helpful - really tried to help me figure out what was wrong, and to fix it - wonderful help, really was. They used screen sharing and were quite confused. They figured out as well that Handoff, Instant Hotspot, and all those other features don't work either. At this point, they made me update to 10.10.2 to see if it was an issue with the update, but to no avail.
    Eventually, the SA checked my iCloud account and saw that the computer hadn't even connected to iCloud, and wasn't even showing up as one of my devices, despite the fact that I had signed into iCloud on this computer.
    The SA told me that he suspected it must have been something to do with hardware, but didn't know what it could be. He said the only time he had seen this before was on a refurbished laptop when the serial number hadn't been put back on, but my serial number was there, so he said it must have been something to do with Bluetooth or Wifi.
    Wireless seems to work completely fine, but there is a strange thing with Bluetooth in which within System report says that the computer is not discoverable or connectable, despite the fact that in the Menu Bar it says it is on and discoverable. It becomes discoverable and connectable once you toggle the switch in System Preferences.
    I was planning to book a Genius Bar Appointment as suggested by the SA, but something strange happened today - all of a sudden, some (not all of them) of my iMessages from earlier today came through. Still no working Handoff or Facetime or Continuity, but now I am starting to wonder what is really wrong.
    Despite the fact they said it was hardware (especially Bluetooth), what could explain why it (seldom) or will not register with iCloud? Can anybody shed some light on the situation and whether a Genius Bar appointment could help fix it?
    Cheers and thanks in advance.

    Needed to add some clarification here:
    iCloud shows me as signed in, but Calendars are NOT checked
    Internet Accounts shows Calendars as syncing

  • How do I get my old contacts onto my iPhone 5? Have tried with iCloud, but no luck.

    How do I get my old contacts onto my iPhone 5? Have tried with iCloud, but no luck.
    I backed up my old iPhone on iCloud, ensuring that contacts was 'on' and then backed up my new iPhone 5. I have surely missed a vital step, but I can't figure it out.
    I'd really appreciate any help.
    Thanks!
    Laura

    I have also realised that my contacts are not in iCloud. I have backed up my old iPhone several times (today!) and they are simly not getting there. Any ideas?

  • I have registered with and validated click and buy but it is not showing on my itunes account

    I have registered with and validated click and buy but it is not showing on my itunes account???

    In iTunes these should theoretically be available on the iTunes Store home page.
    On the right of that page under Quick Links find Purchased section (if available for your country) and then choose the TV Show category and choose to download there - it doesn't happen automatically.
    If not in US you won't be able to redownload movies (yet anyway).
    If a title is not available there are reasons for this but you'd expect it to be if you've only just bought it.
    Actually I prefer buying in iTunes - I bought some TV episodes on AppleTV but cannot complete my season in iTunes - maybe i can't for that show (support were useless) but I do wonder if it's because the purchase was made on ATV.

  • Will I have issues with iCloud & ios5?

    Hi there, I'm trying to find out if my predicament will cause me issues?
    I have both an iTunes account and a me account neither are linked.
    Am I now going to have issues with icloud or will I just have 2 log ins one for my back ups e.t.c. and one for my emails and that?
    Thanks

    A backup of an iPhone using iCloud does not result in the ability to log in to iCloud and view the information (i.e., to see the actual data that was backed up). You can go on your iPhone to Settings > iCloud > Storage > Manage Storage > device name and see how much storage the latest backup is occupying and when it was done.
    Things like Contacts that are viewable when logging in to iCloud.com are the result of having Settings > iCloud > Contacts (as an example) turned on to sync - which is a different thing than a backup.
    The results of an iCloud backup are only rely viewable when restored back to an iOS device. I'm not sure any of that explanation helps with your current problem but it might help clarify the terminology that Apple uses.

    He will have to go to an Apple Store or an Apple-authorised repair centre, and he will need the invoice for the Mac so that he can prove it's his.

  • HT4436 How do I set up a 2nd email address in iCloud? When it was mobile me, I could have 3 addresses. Can I have 2 with iCloud?

    How do I set up a 2nd email address in iCloud? When it was mobile me, I could have 3 addresses. Can I have 2 with iCloud?

    You must be talking about email aliases.  Log into icloud.com with a browser, go to the email page and click the cog wheel icon in the upper right.  Go to preferences>accounts.  YOu can define aliases there.  Note that they must now be @icloud.com named emails.

  • I accidentally in put the wrong email address when attempting to register with iCloud. As such, I can't verify the account with that email address because it does not exist. What should I do?

    I accidentally input the wrong email address when attempting to register with iCloud. Therefore, I can't verify the account because the email address that I accidentally used does not exist. Can someone help me figure a way out of this because there does not appear to be a way to edit the email address?

    try https://appleid.apple.com... enter the new icloud id, and try to edit the email address assocaited.

  • Can you have two separate icloud accounts for two iphones that sync with the same imac?

    can you have two separate icloud accounts for two iphones that sync with the same imac?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Yes and no.
    There is no issues at all if you use two user accounts on the mac, each can sync with one of the accounts.
    If you are using a single user account, you can add the second account as a secondary account in settings > mail, contacts and calendars and you can then sync mail, contacts, calendars, notes and reminders from the second account, but not documents and data, back to my mac or photostream.

  • HT204053 I want to be able to setup a generic corporate Apple ID to use with icloud and Find my Iphone, that will allow me to have more than 10 devices assigned to the ID. What do I do?

    I want to be able to setup a generic corporate Apple ID to use with iCloud and Find my iPhone, that will allow me to have more than 10 devices assigned to the ID. How do I go about creating this account?

    I'm not sure if I understand your question, but if you create a new iCloud account with a different ID your existing ID isn't effected by this.  It will continue to work as it does now, you will just have an additional Apple ID.  If you have an earthlink email address you can continue to use it as a separate account, and it can continue to be your default account if you set it to be (in Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Account).  If I'm misunderstanding your question, please explain further.
