Icloud has 'suddenly' disappeared from my Mac. What should I do

  • Icloud has disappeared from my MacBook Pro

    iCloud has disappeared from my MacBook Pro.  I suspect I may have inadvertently deleted it.  It is definitely not anywhere to be found within the Preferences section.  How can I download it please when it is not on my Mac anywhere and when I go into the Apple store their instructions assume it is sitting on my computer.  I do have an iphone and am about to purchase an iPad.  Is there any  iCloud go across to the Mac Book Pro if I sync the two items.  Thank you for your help.

    How Restore Deleted or Missing OS X Components
    A few of the basic OS X installed applications can be restored from the Optional Installs installer located in the Optional installs folder on your Installer DVD.  However, if what you need is not there then follow the instructions below.
    How to Use Pacifist to Restore Deleted or Missing OS X Components
    Insert the OS X Installer DVD into the optical drive.  Use a simple utility like TinkerTool to toggle invisibility so you can see invisible items.  Alternatively, open the Terminal application in your Utilities folder and at the prompt enter the following:
    defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles Yes
    Press RETURN.
    To turn off the display of invisible files repeat the above command substituting No for Yes.
    The install packages are located in the /System/Installation/ folder on the DVD.
    Download the shareware utility Pacifist. Use it to extract a fresh copy of the missing item(s) from the file archives on your OS X installation DVD. The file archives are in the /System/Installations/ folder (use Go to Folder option in the Go menu of the Finder.)
    Here are Four Basic ways to use Pacifist (courtesy of George Orville.)
    Drag a .pkg icon onto the Pacifist window .....proceed to step 7.
    Click on “Open Package ....” and navigate to package desired and click “Open” in the open/save window.....proceed to step 7.
    Insert Mac OS X installer CD and when it mounts, navigate to .... Menu->Go->Go to Folder. In the path field enter or paste ....
    /Volumes/disc name/System/Installation/Packages (where disc name is the name of the CD/DVD that you inserted.)
    Click on the  "Go" button ..... • Drag a .pkg to Pacifist..... proceed to step 7.
    The package you'll need will have to be discovered by trial and error, but for most applications you should start with the Essentials.pkg and/or Additional Essentials.pkg.
    D. Insert your Mac OS X install disk 1 .... and open Pacifist.
    1.          In Pacifist, select "Open Mac OS X Install Packages" ... dialog may appear asking for disk 2, then disk 3 and finally disk 1 again.... {if DVD is not used)...If “Stop Loading” is selected...the procedure will stop!!!
    2a. When loading is complete, a new window appears, click the triangle to display contents of each package...Select item and proceed to step 7.
    2b.          or click the “Find” icon in the Pacifist window and type the name of the software you need.
    3.          In the list that comes back, click the top most entry for the item that you want. ..... that is the one for the English language.
    4.          On the top of the Pacifist window, click “verify” .... you will probably be prompted for your password.
    5.          Enter checks for.... “verify permissions” and “verify file contents.” and click “verify” ....enter password when prompted.... you will get back output which may look like this:
              20 files were scanned. 20 of 20 files were present on the hard disk. 0 of 20 files had file permissions that did not match those specified in the package. 0 of 20 files had checksums that did not match those specified in the package.
    6.          Click “close”. Go to step 7.
    Extract or Install........
    7.          In the Toolbar (upper left), you now have the option to extract or install. Click a file in the lower list and those two icons will be enabled.
    8.          If “Extract to...” is selected.... navigate to the location where the file will be placed, select “choose”, select “extract” in new dialog that appears,authenicate , if prompted, click “OK”.
    9.          In the next dialog, click “Extract”.
    10.          If “Install” is selected... dialog will appear with the location/path of the installed software. Click “Install”
    11.          Type in your password, click “OK”
    Pacifist will begin to extract files.
    12.          In steps 8/10ß.... you also have the choice to “cancel”
    Notes:          Pacifist may find that a file it is installing already exists on the hard disk. Pacifist will present you with an alert panel....
    Stop
    Leave original alone
    Update .....
    Default selection
    Replace .... (Replace option should only be used on full install packages)

    Where do you usually keep it?   It should be in your applications file.   Otherwise you will need your iLife disc.  All the same quite a lot of problems with ML and IDVD reported of late.

  • HT203167 All my music has disappeared from my iTunes, what do I do?

    I don't know why but somehow all my music has disappeared from my iTunes. I store all my music files on external hard drives.
    I don't know what to do to get it all back onto iTunes (other than individually adding each song)

    If you are lucky you may be able to recreate your library using the method here:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93313
    If that doesn't work you can just add your iTunes Music folder using "Add Folder to Library", that gets your music back in the library but loses playlists and ratings etc.
    Becuase this is rather a common problem, it is a good idea to make backups of you Library file from time to time:
    Backup the iTunes Library Files
    The library files are in:
    My Documents\My Music\iTunes
    Close iTunes and wait about 30 seconds.
    Copy iTunes Library.itl and iTunes Music Library.xml somewhere else e.g. into the Previous iTunes Libraries folder.
    To restore, with iTunes closed drag the current itl and xml file from the iTunes folder to the desktop, then copy the backup iTunes Library.itl into the iTunes folder. The xml file isn’t necessary but can come in handy if the library needs to be recreated and the itl file is causing problems.

    Have you checked the Applications folder? If you are trying to start from the Dock, the alias may have become corrupted.
    Another browser  Firefox
    Do a backup. Boot to the Recovery Volume (command - R on a restart or hold down the option key during a restart and select Recovery Volume). Run Disk Utility Verify/Repair and Repair Permissions until you get no errors. Then reinstall the OS.

  • Creative Cloud has disappeared from my Mac and will not allow me to download it again. Solutions???

    I have had Creative Cloud on my Mac for over a year and about a week ago I updated the application and it completely disappeared from my laptop. I have tried re-installing it many times but my Mac is not allowing me to do so. This is a serious issue as I am a monthly payer of CC and need these applications for schoolwork.

    Elizabethd92565688 have you utilized the steps listed in Error "Failed to Install" Creative Cloud Desktop application - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/failed-install-creative-cloud-desktop.html to reinstall the Creative Cloud Desktop application?

  • Icloud has disappeared from my itunes so can no longer listen to music using it?

    This has happened a few times before where for no discernible reason all my icloud stuff that is stored on the cloud just disappears so does the whole existence of icloud from my computer?

    Go into your System/iCloud preference pane and make sure you're logged into your iCloud account.  If it appears you are log out and then log back in with your Apple ID and password.

  • Camera has "disappeared" from the mac

    hey, i have a macbook pro, 13 inch, and ever since about 2 nights ago, the camera that came with the laptop has not been working. i have no idea what i did, i was just playing around in photobooth; the program froze, and since then, it hasn't been working. i can open up the program and look at the pictures i've taken, but when i try to take a picture, it just shows the camera with a line through it. when i try to set up a video chat with someone, a message appears that "there is no camera attached to the computer." i'm sure it's a really easy problem and solution, but i'm stumped. thanks for reading, and any help is greatly appreciated!

    I am sorry for answering so late about iSight being removed from EU stores (not just the Italian one...)
    It has to do with what is "inside" the camera, not meeting some EU levels of dangerous materials. To know more, go see your local Greenpeace website on Technology Toxic Waste.
    I do not think Apple will continue the iSight in it's present form, it has changed in all the built'in models.
    I am still hoping for a built'in iSight in the Apple Monitors as I have a Macpro...

  • FaceTime has disappeared from my mac screen

    Hi
    Whilst FaceTime was ringing I attempted to answer but it wouldn't connect. Then the FT screen jumped to the bottom left corner of my Mac screen and has dissappeared? It is still available in the dock although when i click on it to call nothing happens, and the screen has not returned. Any help on this please?
    T

    Try quitting FaceTime. Click on the FaceTime icon in the dock and then press Command ⌘ + Q. If it doesn't quit, you can force quit it by pressing Command ⌘ + option + esc, selecting FaceTime, and then pressing Force Quit. Then you can relaunch it by clicking its dock icon.

  • Pages has disappeared from my Mac ... How can i download it again ?.

    It happens if you click the icon on the Dock and then drag it off the dock before you let go of the mouse button. It will disappear in a puff of smoke. Try it, now that you know how to replace it.

  • My pages 08' has disappeared from my Mac, i looked up everywhere

    Since it dissapeared, i have looked everywhere and i thought to buy it again by my MAC OS X is a version 10.6.8 and i need to buy the new memory thing to upgrade and then be able to buy the new pages, and i dont have the money or time to buy the memory, as i need madly to finish my project and i am not able to open the previous work i have done. please can someone tell how i can do to get back pages 08, to reinstall it??? 
    i appreciate your help.

    This is obviously not a Pages problem.
    Sounds like you are having major hard drive problems.
    Run Disk Utility Verify/Repair over your drive, but first backup all your work to the external hard drive if you can.
    Why did you buy the drive from Apple? They madly over charge for such things. Any external USB hard drive would do the job.
    Take your Mac into Apple and get them to fully check it out for you.
