ICloud is not compatable with my mac, what will happen to my .mac account?

I have an older macbook pro with a core duo processor (not core duo 2) and therefore will not be able to upgrade my processing system to Lion and cannot use iCloud.  Does anyone know what is going to happen to my @mac.com email account come June?

If don't upgrade to Lion, yes.
Can I keep my MobileMe email address once I move to iCloud?
Yes. If you have an active MobileMe account when you sign up for iCloud, you can keep your me.com or mac.comemail address and any email aliases you have created and move your MobileMe mail, contacts, and calendars, as well as your bookmarks, to the new service. When you're ready to make the move, go to www.me.com/move.

    Hi Mary, the other so called "Features" of iClound will not work for like Syncing, but eMail will.
    MobileMe & dot Mac will still work last I heard.
    iCloud Mail setup, even in 10.4/10.5…
    Don't delete your old account yet. Just setup a new one in Mail>Preferences>Accounts, little plus icon. Choose IMAP as account type, not ,mac or MobileMe.

    Hello hsielglad,
    Thank you for your question. iTunes 11.1 is required to update to and sync with iOS 7.  If you are still running iTunes 10.6.3, I recommend trying to obtain the update by going to the iTunes menu and selecting Check for Updates.

  • HT204266 I have always synced my iPhone with my PC, what will happen if I sync my iPhone with my new Macbook Air?

    I have always synced my iPhone with my PC, what will happen if I sync my iPhone with my new Macbook Air?
    I am hoping to switch from being dependent solely on my PC to rarely using it and having freedom to use either more Mac/iPhone and less PC, but I have my MSOffice software on the PC .
    I want to sync my iPhone and not lose anything and have a faster experience.

    I have a new laptop and I want to set up a new account. Can I do this when I already have an account set up on my old laptop? what will have to the old account if I set up a new one? how do i set up a new account?

    What exactly do you mean by account?  you wan to set a user on your laptop?
    Do you wan to get a new apple Id on the new laptop? Why?
    Are these laptops Macs?
    What exactly are you trying to do?
    And what does this have to to with Appleworks, which is a long since discontinued Office suit.

  • What will happen to my iTunes account if I restore my computer to its original factory settings?

    I want to restore my computer to its original factory settings but I used this computer to setup my iTunes account and have purchased/downloaded music from the iTunes store.  When I reset my computer what will happen to my account and the music I've purchased, will it be gone?  I have an iPod shuffle that my music is synced to.

    Backup the entire library with this User Tip. The same tool can be used to back up other personal data.
    Deauthorize the computer in iTunes before restoring to factory settings.
    Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.

    Keep your backup up-to-date in future.

  • ICloud contacts not syncing with my Mac address book

    When I log into iCloud and enter a new contact or edit a contact, the new contact info does not get transferred to my Mac Contacts, and I have the iCloud account enabled in Contact prreferences.
    My wife and I have found similar problems with the Calendar.
    Is there something that I am doing incorrectly or is this just a reliability problem with using iCloud?
    Note: I have been using gmail/Google to manage my mail, contacts, and calendar, and don't have a problem keeping this properly synced with my MBA and iOS devices.
    I am asking the question above, since I thought it would be nice to consolidate contacts and calendar events to one platform, but it needs to be a reliable platform.
    OSX 10.8.2
    MBA, mid-2011

    For photo stream, if the source of the photos is an iOS device, be sure the photo app used to take the picture has been turned off, not just sleeping.
    Have you rebooted the computer?  The router?

  • IChat 3.0 not connecting with dummy .mac account.

    Hi guys,
    Here is my problem. I have a dummy .mac account with iChat, have been using it for the past 3 years, today I can´t connect. iChat works fine with an AIM account but not with my dummy .mac.
    Does iChat keep a list of contacts so I can transfer them to my new AIM account?
    I am not sure if this account has been deleted but at the same time it is letting me sign up to post this message.
    My .mac account is [email protected], it works for discussion groups but not for iChat anymore. I am sure it is password related.
    The error message says:
    Could not connect to AIM
    Could not connect to AIM. Try again. The server message was Auth: DbSendError
    What I need to know is if I can get this account working or try to get the list of contacts so I can add them to the AIM account.
    Thanks,
    AJ

    Keep logging on as fast as you can, works for me when i get the error message.

  • Why is the google tool bar not compatable with 5.o? Will it be soon? If not can I unistall 5.0 until it is compatable. I need the googl tool bar and you guys just ruined my day with this upgrade!

    The Google toolbar is not compatible with 5.0. It has been compatible with every previous version up until now. I need to know if and when it will be compatible.

    I don't think anybody will tell you why. Only Google could possibly answer that.
    Firefox 4 is end of life, it is not supported.
    '''see''' https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/841081
    for how to use the Google Toolbar with FF5 with support from neither Google nor Mozilla.
    Unfortunately it has consequences of not being able to use Microsoft product email applications properly. As seen in a newsgroup without a reference a Google document. Which might explain why they are working on an Internet Explorer solution first.
    Or continue reading Q841081 for alternatives, or a Google supplied

  • Why are some iCloud services not syncing with my Mac?

    iCloud seems to be syncing just fine between my iPhone 4S (AT&T 4G) (iOS 5.1.1) and my iPad 2 (Wi-Fi + 3G) (iOS 5.1.1), but not with my MacBook Air (Late 2010) (Mountian Lion 10.8.1). Here's a list of iCould services that I've noticed are and are not working:
    iCloud mail (@me.com) and Gmail syncs and updates on my computer sometimes. (I get that these might be seperate issues. I think I need to change the "port" on one or both – suggestions?).
    Exchange email syncs and updates on my computer most of the time.
    Notes syncs and updates on my computer never.
    Photo Stream has stopped updating and syncing on my computer altogether (worked for the first few weeks and not for the past few weeks).
    iMessage synced with my computer and phone before Mountian Lion released (that is, all incomming iMessages sent to my Apple ID would be recieved at my phone and computer), but I don't think it's worked since.
    iCal, Contacts, and Reminders seem to update and sync on my computer all of the time.
    Because they're all iCloud services I want to think there is a one common problem – which is why I've created only one thread. But because they are not common to all services, I'm guessing it might be a case by case basis.
    Of course I should state all iCloud services are turned on for all devices and computer, and I am using the same Apple ID for them all. Also, all devices/computer are connected to internet via Wi-Fi/4G pretty much all the time. Finally, it's possible there are other issues I've missed—although it seems unlikely since I use them all, all the time)—I think this is a pretty good representation of my problems.
    Thanks for your help!!

  • I would like to remove an application for iCloud to not update or change.  What is happening is everytime icloud syncs it is resettting this application.  How do I get it to ignore this application?

    i would like to remove an application from iCloud so that it does not upidate and change it all the time.  How do I seperate it out?

    The Mophie Air is a good battery case, but doesn't offer the protection she's looking for. I suggest sticking to the Lifeproof, the iPhone has a very good battery (2-3 days moderate usage for me).
    To your 2nd to last paragraph, that is false. Verizon is allowing exisiting customers to keep Unlimited Data - but will lose it once they use a subsidized upgrade. So if you buy a 4S (or LTE device for example) outright, you will keep unlimited data. Mobile hotspot may use up a bit of data, but it is a separate add-on/feature. The new Family Share plans may change that, so it's one giant center of data all devices use.
