Where is the Photo Stream greyed out?  In iPhoto on your Mac? Online? ???
This is from Apple's document iCloud: Purchasing iCloud storage and billing
Summary
iCloud customers are provided with 5 GB of free cloud storage. Purchased music, movies, TV shows, apps, and books, as well as photos in your Photo Stream don't count against your 5 GB of free storage.
It's used for:
your mail, documents, account information, and the iOS settings and app data that are automatically backed up by iCloud. - from: iCloud: Check available email storage
You can change your iCloud email account preferences (under Mailbox behaviors and Advanced) to not store deleted messages online and other changes to reduce the space usage.

    I have a refurbished ipod touch 4th Gen.  I am having problems backing up because the cloud is almost full. I have tried to delete some apps/pics but it won't let me. Do I need to purchase more storage? Also, I accidentally erased all stored music. It is still on my personal computer and I need to know how to get it back on my ipod. A family member set it up for me. 

    You said " I accidentally erased all stored music.".
    You can redownload iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Your iCloud backup does not include non-iTunes purchases like music from CDs
    If on your iPod now:
    Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device: Apple Support Communities
    You can go to Setting>iCloud>Manage Storage and see what is using the store and delete items from iCloud

  • After I downloaded and installed the latest iTunes upgrade (to 10.5.1), I am no longer able to download free app upgrades for the apps I have on my iPad/iPhone/iMac which i had previously purchased. Itunes tells me I "don't own the major versions".

    After I downloaded and install the latest iTunes software upgrade (to 10.5.1), I am no longer able to download free upgrades to the apps on my iPhone or iPad.
    The App Store just says I "don't own the major versions", which of course is nonsense. It seems as if Apple's iTunes/App Store has deleted my download history. Any suggestions?

    Actually It doesn't. It says he's on a MacBook. I don't know all the different types of Macs. I was having a ton of problems with iChat. I opened DMZ to my computer, knocked down all firewalls etc and left everything exposed, still with bad results. A few weeks ago my power supply went out on my D-Link. I bought a linksys. Since I'd left all firewalls off I figured it couldn't be the router. I power cycled everything n the netork, still no luck. Today I bought a universal Power supply and started up my D-Link Router. Everything worked perfectly. My wifes computer - a laptop running Tiger worked fine with the Linksys and did my machine before the Leopard upgrade. Now that I've got the D-Link online everythings working.

  • Do movie rentals go to icloud until used, because I get messages that I need to buy more storage when it says 4.8 out 5.0 is available

    Do movie rentals "wait" in cloud until being viewed? I get download errors and that I need to manage my storage when there is 4.8 out of 5.0 available.

    thank you...I was downloading a rental to add to only 5 others, and I have 1 movie. I got a download error that sent me to manage my storage. When I opened that up it was the screen to add more Icloud storage. Apparently we get 5 GB....and it offered 5 more.I did not see anywhere else to buy any other storage. I did remove a bunch of apps (I have a total of 36 so I didn't think that was an enormous amount, but I removed about 7 and then was able to download the rental. I was putting on a bunch as I am heading for Europe and wasn't sure if I could download there. I appreciate you taking the time to respond. This is new to me, so when the IPAD sends me to settings and to manage storage, I'm just didn't know where else to be looking.

  • I have a macbook air 64gb can I purchase more storage

    I have a macbook air 64gb, was wondering if I can purchase more storage or if I would need to buy the air with 128gb?

    You need to buy a new one sorry
    or you could buy external storage
    lastly you could use a company like this

    but I think it may void your warranty.

  • How can i use the apps i have downloaded on itunes

    how can i use the apps i have downloaded on itunes

    Apps downloaded through iTunes will only run on iOS devices such as iPhones, iPod Touch, and iPads. Plug your device into your computer, open iTunes, and click on it in the bar either at the top or the left side. Then, click apps at the top, and click install next to the app you want installed.
    If you are looking for apps to run on your Mac, you need to download them through the Mac App Store, not through iTunes.

  • I already have an ipad2 and I'm interested in buying an iPad mini. Will I have to purchase all the apps I have on my ipad2 again if I want to use them on the mini ,or, will I simply be able to use them on both machines for no extra charge?

    I already have an ipad2. If I buy an iPad mini will I be able to download the apps I have already bought on to it and use them on both machines?

    If you connect the new mini with the same AppleID you have on the iPad and you used to buy the Apps you will be able to download them again for free.
    You can even let your iTunes do all the work for you. Sync your iPad with iTunes and make a backup.  Give to the new mini a different name and the first time you will connect it to iTunes yiou will be asked if you wish to setup it as a new item or use the backup of the iPad.

  • HT2731 My brother & I have been using the same iTunes account. We now want to have separate accounts. Can we still keep the apps we have on our own devices?

    My brother and I have been using the same iTunes account. We now want to have our own separate accounts.Can we still keep the apps we have on our own devices?

    Your question is almost too much a personal one, begging the question "do we (husband and wife) feel comfy sharing one account on the Mac"   maybe thats why nobody answered you.
    It doesnt complicate anything, but it adds steps for switching accounts on the Mac/ purchases etc. of course
    since your question is mostly personal, ..I wont answer THAT part of it, but creating a new account is easy.....messing with switching back and forth is also a personal preference 'issue' as well.   I prefer to keep things simple, but...........you and yours,  I dont know.......

    I have no idea whether there is a causal relationship but since moving to Lion and iCloud, my iMac has become so unresponsive that I wind up having to crash and restart most of the time.  This is true regardless of the app I am using at the time.
    The specs of this iMac are:
    iMac 27 inch, late 2009 model with a 3.0 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo with 4 Gig 1067 Mhz DDR3, using OSX Lion 10.7.4 (11E53)
    I have Mackeeper installed and according to the scans I have run, everything is fine. No virus, no junk files . . . no problems at all . . .
    Except that for all practical purposes, my computer isn't working. 
    I am nearly totally deaf and live in an isolated, rural area of NW Missouri and this computer is what I mainly rely on to contact friends, relatives and business associtates!
    Any and all suggestions will be greatly appreciated!

    First, back up all data immediately, as your boot drive may be failing.
    If you have more than ten or so files or folders on your Desktop, move them, temporarily at least, somewhere else in your home folder.
    If iCloud is enabled, disable it.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except keyboard, mouse, and monitor, if applicable. Launch the usual set of applications you use when you notice the problem.
    Step 1
    Launch the Activity Monitor 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.
    ☞ If you’re running Mac OS X 10.7 or later, open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Activity Monitor in the page that opens.
    Select the CPU tab of the Activity Monitor window.
    Select All Processes from the menu in the toolbar, if not already selected.
    Click the heading of the % CPU column in the process table to sort the entries by CPU usage. You may have to click it twice to get the highest value at the top. What is it, and what is the process? Also post the values for % User, % System, and % Idle at the bottom of the window.
    Select the System Memory tab. What values are shown in the bottom part of the window for Page outs and Swap used?
    Step 2
    You must be logged in as an administrator to carry out this step.
    Launch the Console application in the same way as above. Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left.
    Post the 50 or so most recent messages in the log — the text, please, not a screenshot.
    Important: Some personal information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Edit it out before posting.

  • I was having ios 4.3 and decided to upgrade to ios 5 and in doing so I lost all my apps despite I restored from my earlier back up. The itunes I've backed up is different from the itunes I have used to upgrade-..

    I was having ios 4.3 and decided to upgrade to ios 5 and in doing so I lost all my apps despite I restored from my earlier back up. The itunes I’ve backed up is different from the itunes I have used to upgrade….. I was wondering if I can get back my apps that were purchased using different apple ID (not mine). Since I am in Ethiopia doesn’t even have the chance to buy it again. I have searched it in my computer/c/user/adminstrator….but couldn’t find it. Anyone p/l help

    When I updated my iPhone to IOS 5, I did it from my MB Air, when my iPhone's "home" is my work 27" iMac. I figured I could just download the new OS at home where internet is fast and then sync at office and be done. 
    WRONG!!!  So, like others here, all my apps were "gone."
    Following some of what I read above, I did the following and now all my apps that I purchased in the past are downloading to my 27". 
    In iTunes I went to Purchased, under "Store" in left column of iTunes.
    Then at the bottom of the Purchased screen was something like Download all apps, borrom right (sorry, cant see it now, its downloading all of them).  Once I hit that, I could see all my apps and it looks like they are all coming back.
    Now all I have to do is put them all like I had them before, folders, etc.  That will be a pain BUT at least I have all of them.

  • HT1918 I have updated my email address. Now I can't download the apps I have bought with the previous (no longer in use) email. What is going on?

    I have updated my email address.
    The system does not link my previous account (previous email) to my edited email. Therefore I am not able to update apps and have no acces to the apps I have bought in the past.
    Can someone please explain how do I access the apps I have already bought?

    I started the process in iTunes.
    Apple give us the option to edit our email.
    As I am no longer using "old email" I have decided to edit and update my information with "new email" (APPLE ID > Edit).
    Affter I did it the system simply does not recognize all purchases I have made with "old email".
    Apple response:
    Luiz I noticed that your account "new email" was formerly named "old email".
    If your computer is not currently authorized to play this account's purchases, when you double-click an item you purchased before you renamed the account, the authorization dialog may show the old account name. If this happens, you will need to remove the old account name "old email" from the account name field, type the new account name "new email", and click Authorize. This authorizes your computer to play the account's purchases.
    Luiz: "I just cannot see any of the old purchased items". My computer is authorized.

  • If I create a new apple ID will I lose all the apps I have purchased with my original ID?

    If I create a new apple ID will I lose all the apps I have purchased with my original ID?

    I set up FaceTime and Messages on four different devices with only one Apple ID. I used the exact method that is described in the video that AnaMusic has provided to you in the link in her response above.  That method worked fine for my family, but you can create new Apple ID's just to use for FaceTime and Messages if you like. Many users prefer doing that as opposed to adding new email addresses.
    IMO - using unique email addresses (like in the video) makes sense, because we (my family) all have different email addresses anyway, and it was very simple to add each family members email address to both apps and remove my Apple ID email address as the contact address on each device.
    BTW .... if you are using your Apple ID on both devices - your phone number should be the number that is showing in the settings - not you daughter's. Did you set up the Apps with your Apple ID?

  • If I want to change the iTunes account on my iPhone to a different one, do the apps I have installed on the phone uninstall?

    I would like to change the account I have linked to my phone, so my son can use the iTunes account I currently have (Since we had it when he had an iTouch, and all his paid apps are on it.) I was just wondering if I created a new iTunes account, if the apps I have installed to the phone would uninstall if I logged out, and logged into a new account.
    Thanks!

    They won't uninstall even if you change accounts. However, you may not be able to update them while signed in to a different accoutn than the one who purhcased the apps.

  • I am looking for an app that can unmute my iphone after a preset time, eg 1 or 2 hours. Does anybody know an app with this feature?? The apps I have found are linked to a calendar or a place, I just need the timer function..

    I am looking for an app that can unmute my iphone after a preset time, eg 1 or 2 hours. Does anybody know an app with this feature?? The apps I have found are linked to a calendar or a place, I just need the timer function..

    thanks. yes i am aware of the VoiceOver feature but it is NOT the solution to my problem. as you said, it is a solution to a different set of issues. i want the text to speech ability because i there are books i need to read but do not have the time to sit down and read them and have become used to listening to them read to me either by a professional human reader or with the text to speech software on the Kindle.
    I think Apple makes the best audio devices but i am really disappointed in this inexplainable shortcoming. if apple can give us siri they ought to be able to design a nice little button that i can push to turn on text to speech while i am in a document, book, magazine or webpage. clearly it is possible as apple has added the "reader" button in safari to have web pages dropped into the reader format.
    thanks for your suggestion though, it is what everyone suggests but it does not address the issue.

  • I have a number of apps on my Ipad2 that no longer have sound. I have checked setting on my ipad and the settings on the apps that have a settings and the sound and volume are ok. Do I have a virus in some apps?

    I have a number of apps on my ipad2 tha no longer have sound.  I have checked the ipad settings and the apps that have settings and all sound and volume are ok.  Do I have a virus?  Pandora sound is ok. It seems mostly to be games...angry birds, tap tap, and educational games for little ones. Any suggestions?

    There aren't any viruses for iOS devices. Have you got notifications muted ? Only notifications (including games) get muted, so the iPod and Videos apps, and headphones, still get sound.
    Depending on what you've got Settings > General > Use Side Switch To set to (mute or rotation lock), then you can mute notifications by the switch on the right hand side of the iPad, or via the taskbar : double-click the home button; slide from the left; and it's the icon far left; press home again to exit the taskbar. The function that isn't on the side switch is set via the taskbar instead : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085
