If I upgrade my Mac OS x 10.6.8 to Mavericks will I be able to use icloud?
I bought my macbook a while back (circa 09') and just got an ipad mini and iphone 5s. I would like to use icloud on all 3 devices. Do I have to upgrade to Lion first then to Mavericks or can I just upgrade to the free version of Mavericks and use icloud? Thanks in advance.
Yes. You can enable it by going to System Preferences>iCloud and signing in, either with an existing iCloud ID or with your Apple ID to create a new account.

Will I be able to use my current Photoshop CC on a new computer when I upgrade?
I am looking into using Photoshop CC ($9.99/mo). I need a new program right now on my current laptop. I plan to upgrade my laptop at the end of the year. Will I be able to use the same Photoshop account?

I have a 2GHz Intel Core Duo MacBook Pro with Max OSX version 10.6.8
I would like to upgrade to Lion but it says I can't .
So can I? how ?
I would like to be able to use iCloud on this computer too.
ThanksThe minimum requirements require the intel core 2 duo processor.so I am sorry to say that you will need to update your mac if you want to run Lion and iCloud. Apple's http://www.apple.com/macosx/specs.html page for osx gives the minimum requirements.

I got a message that Aperture needs to upgrade my library, once upgraded, I will not be able to use this library. Will I lose all my photos? Please help!
I got a message that Aperture needs to upgrade my library, once upgraded, I will not be able to use this library.
Photogirl, that surely is only half of the alert message. You will not lose your photos; this message is alerting you to the fact, that there will be no way back. Once the library has been upgraded, you will no longer be able to open it in the previous Aperture version. So, if you have other macs with older Aperture versions, these will no longer be able to read your converted Aperture library.
When you see an alert like this, it is always wise to check, if your backup is current, before you proceed. Make sure, you have a working backup of your Aperture library, and also, of your current version of Aperture, just in case.

HT4759 If I have OS X 10.6.8 operating system can I upgrade to be able to use iCloud?
If I have OS X 10.6.8 operating system can I upgrade to be able to use iCloud?
You are posting in the iOS device forum, but I'm assuming you are talking about connecting a mac to icloud. If so, you need to upgrade to at least OSX Lion to use icloud. 10.6.8 is not compatilble with icloud.

I want to give an iPad to my wife to use for work, but her employer won't let her upgrade her Macbook from Leopard to Lion. It's pointless if she can't use iCloud. Is there a workaround?
So far Apple has not upgraded the other Mac OS X versions to iCloud. She can manually enter information to be synced in the cloud but that is really tedious.

I'm using a Mac. After swithcing to ICloud will I be able to use IWeb to upload and publish my sites hosted by other servers like Prohosting ?
iWeb has two other ways to publish your site...
http://www.iwebformusicians.com/iWeb/Publish-Website.html
... and the second method allows you a choice of how you upload the files...
http://www.iwebformusicians.com/iWeb/URLs-Favicons.html
Here's a publishing workflow checklist...
http://www.iwebformusicians.com/Search-Engine-Optimization/Website-Publishing-Wo rkflow.html
The MobileMe only features can be replaced by alternatives...
http://www.iwebformusicians.com/iWeb/Comments-Password-Protect.html
If you have folders of assets outside of the main website folder on MobileMe, download them from the Apple server. From the Finder Go menu, follow the path iDisk/My iDisk/ to get there. Your website files are in the Web/Sites folder. Drag any files/folders onto the desktop.
Use an FTP application to upload these assets to the root folder on your new server...
http://www.iwebformusicians.com/Search-Engine-Optimization/Upload.html
...and change the relevant URLs to...
http://www.domain-name.com/Folder-Name/file-name.file-extension
There are lots of options for hosting for about half the cost of MobileMe...
http://www.iwebformusicians.com/iWeb/Website-Hosting.html
If you have been using a web.me.com domain name, you need to register a new one. Most hosting services give you at least one free and registering with your hosting company will make forwarding and managing it a lot easier.
Make sure you add the new name to Google and create, upload and enter a new sitemap.xml...

If you have inbound links on other sites...

I am using a Mac OS X 10.7 and i have trouble using idvd. If I buy a previous version of ilife, will I be able to use idvd without affecting the settings of Mac OS X 10.7? Can both versions of ilife run on the same mac?
You don't need to buy an earlier version of iDVD to have it run with Lion. iDVD 7 has been with us since iLife 08. Tell us in detail what you're experiencing.

My macbook came with snow leopard, if I upgrade to Lion will I be able to use my restore disks in the future and if I do use my disks that brings me back to snow leopard, Will itunes remember I purchased Lion or will I have to purchase a second time ?
At this point, you can no longer download Lion (10.7) from the App Store, only Mountain Lion (10.8) - make sure all your applications are fully compatible if you decide to upgrade.
Yes, you can restore 10.6 using your restore disc should you wish to - and the App Store (not ITunes) will have a record of all your purchases, since it's linked to your AppleId.
