ICloud 3.1 Control Panel

Hi,
My PC has iCloud 3.1 installed.   The control panel has 2 options:   Bookmarks & Photos.    Also, a link to iCloud.com to access Mail, Contact, Calendar, and reminders @ iCloud.com.   I've had no success in syncing my pc from the iCloud.com  
In researching on how to resolve this issue, I noticed  reference screens shots show 3.1 with each option:  Bookmarks, photos, contact, mail, calendar and reminders.   
Why is my version different? 
My objective is to have the contact file on my PC and have the sync working iCloud & PC.
Can you help?

Do you have Outlook 2007 or later installed on your PC?

  • Icloud 2.0 control panel doesn't sync photos to Idevices

    I have a computer ruinning windows 7 64, I have Icloud 2.0 innstalled, and I have an Iphone 3gs and an Ipad 3 with sim all hooked up to the same apple id.
    I have set up Icloud on all devices. Photos taken with iphone or ipad syncs perfectly to all units. But photos added to the standard upload folder (created by Icloud 2.0 control panel) within the picture stream folder on my computer won't sync. When I add a photo here it shows in "my photostream folder" on my computer, shortly after, but not on my iphone or ipad. (And yes, both I units are hooked up to wifi)
    I have been messing with this issue for 3 days. And I am getting increasingly fed up. I have reinstalled the control panel for the computer several times, booted several times. Turned I cloud on and off on all devices, reset the photostream on www.icloud.com several timens, no change.
    Tried to contact apple support, but they want to charge me 300NOK(50USD) for calling me. I didn't go through with that obviously.
    If this isn't fixed I am seriously considering returning the new iphone 5 and the accessories I ordered last week.
    (I do know I can use dropbox(which actually work) or sync the pics through itunes, but one of the main advantages with Apple in my opinion was the Icloud feature. Things from Apple used to work at once, but now, not so sure anymore.
    Help is greatly appriciated.

    So.. I tried again and did the following:
    1. Signed out of ICloud control panel 2.0
    2. Uninnstalled Icloud control panel 2.0 through programs and functions in Windows control panel.
    3. Deleted folders that Icloud automaticly made for picturestream (my picturestream, shared and upload)
    4. signed in to www.icloud.com and reset picturestream.
    5. Booted the computer
    6. booted Iphone 3gs and Ipad 3, turned picturestream off and on on both devices.
    7. innstalled Icloud control panel 2.0 from Apple software update on computer.
    8. configured Icloud control panel 2.0 on computer, enabled photostream. And sat photostream folder to a designated folder on my desktop.
    9. Crossed fingers and toes
    10. Moved 77 pics into upload folder within the designated folder on my desktop.
    Result:
    1. The pics seemed to upload to Icloud at once, as they downloaded to the "my photo stream" folder within the designated folder on my desktop, They also showed in a new root folder when I open my computer folder called Photostream. All pics are there.
    2. checked my ipad and iphone -> no pictures in my photostream on either device, even though both are connected to wifi, and both have more than 20% battery power, and none of them have camera app open.
    3. Teared of grey hair as they popped out.
    4. Considering android platforms instead, and to sell my iphone 3gs,ipad 3, apple airport express, and apple tv, and to return my ordered iphone 5. And to stop recommending apple products for work, friends an family.
    5. Irritated.

  • HT201317 I want but don't have iCloud icon in control panel (internet). I have a MobileMe icon which I can't log into and I'm not sure if it is an old version of the same thing? Clicking on it directs me to a closed website which redirects me to iCloud.

    I'm trying to set up photo stream on my PC so that photos automatically download and are saved on my harddrive but I cannot find an iCloud icon in the relevent section of the control panel. I do have a MobileMe icon but cannot log into it with my Apple logins and am not sure if it is the same thing anyway. Any advice how to get photo streaming set up?

    I have an Apple ID that I use for itunes.  I am trying to set up my icloud account.  I have gone thru the steps to "set up" the icloud account.  It only has me download the icloud control panel, then I'm supposed to sign into icloud, but then it tells me that I don't have an icloud account.  I have looked all over the support area and it doesn't tell me how to get passed this problem.  Any suggestions?

  • I can not sign in to iCloud from the control panel on my PC

    I just purchased the New iPad and decided to do the iCloud sync.  I have installed the iCloud control panel to my Windows 7 Pro computer, but when I try to sign in from the control panel it doesn't log-in.  I have waited for an hour to see if anything would happen and it does not.  I have even tried to reinstall.  Does anyone have any ideas?

    I was having same issue here (using windows 7 64-bit). iCloud control panel used to work fine for me before this last update, but then it stopped letting me sign in. After entering apple id and password, just hangs with the spinning progress wheel forever..
    I tried uninstalling, rebooting, and then reinstalling the control panel, but still did the same thing.  I also tried changing my iCloud password;  new password worked fine for signing onto icloud.com and from my iPhone 4S but still not from the control panel. The strange part was let it would let me log into it with my wife's apple id ??
    That got me experimenting some more and I realized that the control panel worked fine from a different user profile on my windows computer!  After experimenting and nosing around in my profiles 'AppData' folder, I managed to get it to work again:
    If you have iCloud control panel log in window open, close it
    Copy this path to your clipboard:  C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\Preferences
    Goto start -> run
    Paste the path and hit enter
    From the folder that is opened, rename 'MobileMeAccounts.plist' out of the way (or you can delete it if want..)
    Restart iCloud control panel and try logging on again. MobileMeAccounts.plist is regenerated the next time you sign out from control panel.
    I'm guessing that somehow my (our) original MobileMeAccounts.plist has some sort of corruption in it, or maybe some log in attempt got hosed somehow and its preventing it from even trying?   Who knows...
    Hope it works out for you too!!   ~~Corey

  • ICloud 2.0 Control Panel won't load on Win 7 32-bit

    I installed iCloud 2.0. The install seems to work but the following issues occur:
    iCloud control panel won't open
    iCloud icon in notifications area won't open iCloud
    Outlook 2010 won't open, instead it hangs in the splash screen with "Processing..."
    iCloud is running according to Task Manager
    I've uninstalled and reinstalled multiple times with the same result.

    Here's what worked for me after looking around this discussion board:
    Uninstall iCloud
    Reboot
    Make sure that if you're using a web proxy (many corporate accounts require these) that you don't use a proxy script file (.pac file)
    For 32-bit Windows 7:
    In Computer, open Local Disk C:\ or whichever drive your program files are installed on.
    On a 32-bit version of Windows 7, open the "Program Files" folder.
    Open the "Common Files" folder.
    Open the "Apple" folder.
    Open the "Apple Application Support" folder.
    Find the APSDaemon.exe file and set it Run As Administrator
    Reinstall iCloud 2.0.
    Note: APSDaemon.exe causes iTunes to hang on quit. I had it renamed to disable it but it's required by iCloud.

  • ICloud 3.0 Control Panel for Windows - Non-IE Bookmark Sync

    FYI
    The new iCloud Control Panel for Windows 3.0 offers bookmark sync with Chrome and Firefox
    I could not get the new iCloud Control Panel for Windows 3.0 to recognize bookmark sync for any browser except IE. I downloaded the Firefox add-in and enabled it but it would not show Firefox bookmark sync as an option.I tried deleting and reintstalling both the iCloud Control Panel and Firefox.
    I finally solved the issue and got it work when I removed the additional profiles for Firefox.
    Check your (windows) Firefox profile at:
    users/yourusername/app data/roaming/mozilla/profiles
    Once I deleted the additional profile and restarted Firefox and the iCloud Control Panel I was able to select Bookmark sync with Firefox or Chrome.
    I hope this helps others that could not enable this option.

    Hello Todd,
    I too have the same problem (I can not display the "Options" button on the control panel, therefore I can not synchronize)
    I looked in the profiles of Mozilla Firefox, but unfortunately I have only one profile (default profile)
    How do I solve the problem?
    Thank you very much
    Maurizio

  • Can't share photos using shared Photo Stream with iCloud Control Panel for Windows

    BACKSTORY: My friend took pictures of my family. I want to see the pictures he took. We live about 2.5 hours apart by car. Gas prices are too high for me to just drive down with an external hard drive to get the pictures and I might as well throw my money out the window if I were to ship him a hard drive and he ship it back. SO. I ask him if he would share photos with me and he quickly agreed. He added me to a Photo Stream  he has. ok cool. I recieve the invitation email just fine but this is the error I get when I click on the link:
    ERROR MESSAGE:
    Photo Stream
    Follow these steps to join a shared photo stream
    1.Make sure you have an iPhone, iPad or iPod touch running iOS 6 or a Mac running OS X 10.8.2 withiPhoto 9.4 or Aperture 3.4 or later installed.
    2. Sign in to iCloud on your devices.
    3. Open the invitation email on an updated device and tap the Join this Photo Stream button. 
    WHAT I NEED:
    How can I view shared photo streams using iCloud Windows control panel 2.1.2.0? How can I work around this error message? I don't own any of these products that apple wants me to own in order to view these photos! I don't have the cash to go out and purchase them. What can I do to get "my" photos? Do I have to be signed into my friends apple id to see the shared photos?
    What I've tried:
    I already have the icloud control panel installed and updated to the latest version.
    I'm signed into iCloud on the control panel. (no apple id password issues)
    I have photo stream checked.
    I have my photo stream checked
    I have shared photo stream checked.
    I have tried copying and pasting the link into the address bars of Safari for Windows, Google Chrome, Internet Explorer,  and Firefox respectively and pressing enter to load. all present the same error message.
    I visited iCloud.com to see if there was anywhere to access the shared photo stream there... No option exisits
    Checked my photo stream folder in windows explorer. it's completely empty. I haven't put any of my own photos there so nothings missing per se... I just can't see my friends shared photos.
    MY SET UP:
    Windows 7 64bit Home Premium
    4gb of RAM
    iCloud control panel version 2.1.2.0
    I don't own any version of Outlook, (if that matters. I doubt that it matters at all in this case.)
    I don't have any iOS Devices or a mac capable of 10.8. My MacBook is stuck at 10.6.8. It's a late mid 2008 just before the aluminum unibody computers came out. If I had only waited another month... sigh. Murphy's Law is alive and well.
    any sugestions, especially correct answers, are welcome. please help me figure this out. Thanks in advance.

    Hello desert_dweller5,
    It sounds like you art trying to access a Shared Photo Stream, but you do not have one of the devices to enable your Apple ID as an iCloud account.  The following article provides information on how Shared Photo Streams work:
    iCloud: Photo Stream FAQ
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4486
    The article states that for privately Shared Photo Streams to work, the recipient will not only have to have an Apple ID, but it will have to be an iCloud account:
    Friends and family with iCloud accounts can view your photos in the Photos app on any device using iOS 6 or later; on a Mac in iPhoto 9.4 or Aperture 3.4 or later; on a Windows PC with Windows Vista or later and iCloud Control Panel 2.0 or later installed; or on a second generation or later Apple TV with software version 5.1 or later installed. They can also view your photos on the web if you enable Public Website in the settings or options for your Shared Photo Stream.
    Since you do not have an iCloud account and just and Apple ID, your friend can share the photo stream as a public website so that you can view it, as stated in the same article: 
    Can I share with people who don't have an iCloud account?
    Yes. If you enable Public Website in the settings or options for your shared photo stream your photos will be published to a website that anyone can view in an up-to-date web browser.
    To be able to change an Apple ID to an iCloud account, you would need an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 5 or later or a Mac with OS X Lion v10.7.4 or later as stated in the following article:

  • Is there a way to protect the iCloud control panel access with a password in Windows 7?

    I have MS Outlook sync'd with my iCloud services in my Windows7 office PC (I'm pushing for Macs, but quite there yet, unfortunately!), and I have it password protected so nobody else can access my files. However, the iCloud app in Control Panel doesn't have any password protection so it can be messed with at any moment. Is there any way to protect it, or are there any plans to include this feature in future updates?

    Same here, I use iCloud on an office PC.
    I would like to password protect the access to the iCloud Control Panel. Is there a way to do that? I can either "Sign in" or "Sign Out."
    if I sign out I can't add iCloud calendar to Outlook. If I stay signed in, IT could easily activate my personal iCloud mail.
    Ideally, there should be a checkbox to just add calendar and leave mail, contacts and task out all together.
    Thanks.

  • ICloud control panel freeze after applying settings

    Just installed iTunes 10.5 and iCloud control panel 1.0 on my Windows 7 64-bit computer.
    I am signed in with my Apple-ID but when I enable photo Stream and hit the Apply button the control panel freezes.
    I have restarted the computer wish resulted in not being able to open the iCloud control panel again.
    I have uninstalled/installed iCloud again and ended up on square one, it freezes.
    Anyone experienced this and is there a solution to the problem?

    Errm no, that's not what I said
    In her user account on the pc she will need to sign to iCloud (in the control panel) with her account, you, in your user account on the pc will sign into iCloud with your account.
