ICloud question, not saving everything.

Hey. I don't really get this iCloud thing. When I go to iCloud storage on my iPad, it seems like it's only storing part of each app. It says I have 4 gb available, but my iPad storage is full! How can I get more on the cloud? when I go to iCloud storage on iPad, it shows me a list of stuff I can backup, and I've turned all those on. Still, when I go to my regular iPad storage, it shows that the device is saving those same apps, just more of it! Help anyone?

Icloud is not saving the notes from my phone...using iphone 4 with ios7

Icloud is saving everything off my phone except the notes. Can anyone help me with this?
Thanks

Sorry, I misread your post. If notes are not syncing with iCloud be sure:
You have turned on Mail in Settings>iCloud
You have selected iCloud as your default account in Settings>Notes>Default Account
Open Notes and tap Accounts, then confirm that you have selected the iCloud account
Then try creating a new note and see if it appears on icloud.com now.

Email sent from an icloud alias not saved in sent folder

I have a couple aliases set up for my primary icloud email account.
When I send a message from my "primary" email address (using the pull-down list to select the "From:" address) a copy of the message appears in the Sent folder. However, if I select one of the aliases as the "From:" address, the message is delivered to the recipient but does NOT show up in the Sent folder. Anyone know why?

The "recall" feature is not a feature of Outlook. It is a feature of Microsoft's proprietary Exchange system, and it only works if you and the recipient are both using Exchange Server email accounts.

iCloud does not use Microsoft Exchange - it uses the industry standard IMAP protocol for email.

Question: Not saving changes

Hi,
I saved some changes to a pdf document (highlighting, added text, free-hand drawing), but when I transfer it to my laptop (using my USB cable) the changes are gone (that is, I do not see the changes in my laptop using Adobe Acrobat Professional or any other PDF viewer).
What can I do?
Thank you

Hi Ricardo,
Were you able to see those changes when you open that document in Adobe Reader on your device itself? If yes, could you please mail that document to us at DL-adobereader-android [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> to help us investigate the issue.
Please include this forum thread link in your email for reference.

ICloud password not saving in Mail?

Since updating to Mavericks my iCloud password will not save into my account in Mail. I enter it in the Account Preferences and Save it and then it dissapears. It also askes for the password every time i restart Mail. This is pretty annoying and i'm not sure what to do? Does anyone know a solution to the problem?
thanks!

Howdy patty1969,
If iCloud mail is not opening or even recognizing your account, please check your settings to insure they are correct.
For an overview see
iCloud: Mail overview
and settings

ICloud keychain not saving updated password.

Hi All. Hoping for some insite here.
iCloud key chain seemed to be working fine for me until I started updating my password and using the pasword generator to change them.
First it takes updating a password on anyone of thie sites that I use two tries to sucessfully save. Then by the next day (maybe even sooner) that keychain just changes them back to tthe original. This id kind of a nighmare because 1. its incredibly annying that it does that and is not working correctly and 2. I've went throught the painstaking process of going into settings, copying the password and inputting into all my respected apps on my iOS device. No keychain has reverted back and I dont know what the encypted passwords were. I have to go to all the site and update passwords again to just have this happen over and over. I cant access any of my accounts.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
G

How do I know if I am set up as a Admin User?
The only thing in my keychain is certificates, public keys and network passwords.
Thanks for your help!

IPhoto not saving editing changes:

I am attempting to edit changes in my IPHOTO library and notice that it's not saving everything that I want. It is making some changes i.e. brightness/contract, however sharpness and other editing options are NOT being saved. Very odd, I am wondering if IPHOTO 6 has fixed this problem? It appears others are having this problems with issue as well and no there does not appear to be any concrete answers. Any help would be appreciated! Thank you!

Hello, Phez,
It may be that iPhoto's preference file has been damaged. Delete it and see if that corrects the problem. iPhoto will create a new one when it determines that the old one is gone.
Go to YourUserName->Library->Preferences->com.apple.iPhoto.plist and delete that plist.
Also, you should always repair permissions before and after any installations/upgrades. Applications->Utilities->Disk Utility. Select your hard drive's icon by its name, then be sure you are in 'First Aid' and choose 'Repair Disk Permissions."

ICloud password works on everything but erasing all data. I got a new iPhone and need to wipe this one but am not sure how else to do this since the password is not working. Any suggestions?

Firefox also makes regular backups of your bookmarks in a folder named bookmarkbackups in your personal settings folder. You can restore the backup to your new Firefox, but unlike importing the HTML-format file, it is a complete drop-in replacement, so if you have saved new bookmarks you do not want to lose, the export/import method may work better for you.
By default, Windows hides your personal settings folder so the easiest way to access it is from inside Firefox. You can use either:
* "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Troubleshooting Information
* (menu bar) Help > Troubleshooting Information
* type or paste about:support in the address bar and press Enter
In the first table on the page, click the "Show Folder" button. This will launch a window showing your Firefox settings files.
You might want to back up this whole folder if you have other data you want to preserve from your XP computer.
Either way, you should find the bookmarkbackups folder here and when you click into it, find maybe 10 files with dates in their names.
The procedure to restore the file once you have it on removable media or some other convenient place is described in this article: [[Restore bookmarks from backup or move them to another computer]].
Regarding the other files and what you might find of use: [[Recovering important data from an old profile]].

HT4489 Ever since the last update IOS5.1.1, calendar entries are not saved on Icloud, and would not sync on all I clould devices

After the last update of IOS5.1.1, all caledar entries are not saved on Icloud and thus not synced on all my Icloud devices, even though, spreadsheets are synced, photostream is working and contacts is syncing, only calendar items. Anybody has the same problem? Or a solution to this kind or problem?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
First check that all your settings are correct, that calendar syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
Make sure the calendars you are using are in your 'iCloud' account and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud account (you can do this by clicking/tapping the calendar button in the top left corner of the application ), non iCloud calendars will not sync.
If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your calendars are in the iCloud account, you might try unchecking calendar syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling calendar syncing settings.

ICloud mail settings not saved in System Preferences on Mountain Lion

I note that iCloud mail settings not saved in System Preferences on Mountain Lion even if I tick mail in Icloud then close system preferences then open system preferences and it is untiked again?
Does anyone know how to fix this?

Back up all data. Don't continue unless you're sure you can restore from a backup, even if you're unable to log in.
This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
Step 1
If you have more than one user account, and the one in question is not an administrator account, then temporarily promote it to administrator status in the Users & Groups preference pane. To do that, unlock the preference pane using the credentials of an administrator, check the box marked Allow user to administer this computer, then reboot. You can demote the problem account back to standard status when this step has been completed.
Triple-click the following line to select it. Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
{ sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR.. ; sudo chown -R $UID:staff ~ $_ ; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_ ; chmod -R -N ~ $_ ; } 2> /dev/null
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). You'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The command will take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2 (optional)
Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1 or if it doesn't solve the problem.
Boot into Recovery. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
In the Terminal window, type this:
res
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
Select
 ▹ Restart
from the menu bar.

I have an IPhone operating OS 4.21. I cannot back it up before update and I cannot set up an ICloud account as it needs to be on a version later on the device. Please help, I want to update but not lose everything!

That would tend to indicate a permissions issues on the computer.
Running an outdated version of iTunes is of absolutely no benefit.
All iDevices work with the current version of iTunes.

Dokuments created on iMac in Pages or Numbers are not transfered to iCloud. Not uploaded to iCloud. There is a sign (small shape of iCloud), that they are waiting to be uploaded to iCloud.
I think the iCloud is OK.

But not on iMac.
i dont know what has happened and I am not abble to find the solution. It was OK till some days ago….

I have a similar problem! Everything stopped working after upgrading to Mac OS 10.8.4 through the App Store. Help!

How did you delete the Note? If you did a "select all" and "cut", open the Note and shake your iPhone to undo the cut action.

I accidentally deleted documents from Pages on my iphone - and now they won't show up on my mac anymore either. I must have saved them just on icloud and not on my mac, too. is there anyway to recover these documents?

On a mac, when you save docs to icloud, a local copy is also saved. It's saved at:
~/Library/Mobile Documents
Note that Library in the user's home folder is now hidden, so you'll have to set Finder to view hidden files.
The Mobile Documents folder has subfolder where copies of the doc/data files are stored.
If the file(s) are no longer there, then use your Time Machine backups to get copies back to the mac.

I have digital handbooks in iBooks on my iPad yet they are not on my iPhone (3G). iCloud is working with everything else, photos, calendar, etc. Anyone know why?

I have digital handbooks in iBooks on my iPad yet they are not showing in iBooks on my 3G iPhone. I have the iCloud completely set up - everything else syncs. Anyone have any idea why they're not showing on both devices?

You still have to sync them or download them to your phone. iBooks will sync your bookmarks, and your collections (which are they are organized when you tap "Collections" on your iPad) using iCloud, but it will not transfer copies of the actual books or pdfs to your other devices.
