Is the "cloud" app the same as "iCloud"?
Saw the "cloud" app, not sure if it is the same as "icloud" or something entirely different, would someone be so kind as to clairify this for me please?
Thank you.

Is cloud player the same a icloud
is cloud player on amazon the same as icloud?
I tried Cloud player premium as it claims to store up to 250,000 rather than Apple's 25,000 tracks. So it seemed a good idea.
Sadly, Amazon only found 16000 of 26000 tracks on my Itunes library and randomly missed parts of nearly every CD and Album.
So thank you Apple for iTunes Match, it may not be perfect, but SO much better in my opinion! -
Is authurizing a computer the same as icloud?
i got music from another laptop, and i wanted to transfer the music on to my laptop. but itunes asked i could authorize the other laptop. What does this mean? and if i do will all there songs automactically download on to my laptop?
No, it's not the same as iCloud. Authorizing will not automatically download anything. Anything purchased on someone else's Apple ID will not work on your Apple ID. Authorizing your computer will not fix that unless you use the other person's Apple ID.
Authorization
Macs: iTunes Store- About authorization and deauthorization.
Windows: How to Authorize or Deauthorize iTunes | PCWorld.
In iTunes you use the Authorize This Computer or De-authorize This Computer option under the Store menu in iTunes' menubar. For Windows use the ALT-S keys to access it. Or turn on Windows 7 and 8 iTunes menus: iTunes- Turning on iTunes menus in Windows 8 and 7. -
I use the public folder on idisk to share files with a colleague. Will I be able to do the same on iCloud?
No. There is no iDisk with iCloud. You can use one of several third-party alternatives like SugarSync, ADrive, or MediaFire.

PLS IS MY APPLE ID THE SAME WITH ICLOUD ACCOUNT
PLEASE I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHETHER APPLE ID IS THE SAME WITH ICLOUD ACCOUNT? ALSO, IS ITUNE ACCOUNT THE SAME WITH ICLOUD ACCOUNT OR ID ACCOUNT? PLEASE WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENCES OR SIMILARITIES?
Hi @ramatu ,
An iCloud account uses an Apple ID for identification. See this article for reference -
Creating an iCloud account: Frequently Asked Questions
Likewise, the iTunes store uses an Apple ID for purchases. It does not have to be the same Apple ID that you use for your iCloud account. See this article -
Using your Apple ID for Apple services
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,

Is my mac acc password the same for iCloud ?
Is my mac accout password the same for iCloud?
It would be the same password for anything you do with the same Apple ID. The following quotation is from https://appleid.apple.com
An Apple ID is your user name for everything you do with Apple: Shop the iTunes Store, enable iCloud on all your devices, buy from the Apple Online Store, make a reservation at an Apple Retail Store, access the Apple Support website, and more. -
Is mobile me the same as icloud
is mobile me the same as icloud
With MobileMe you could backup files from your Mac and host websites. iCloud is just for syncing contacts, bookmarks, and photos, etc. between mobile devices and Macs and backing up up mobile devices as described in this Apple document: iCloud: iCloud storage and backup overview
What iCloud backs up
You have important information on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch. iCloud automatically backs up your device over Wi-Fi every day while it’s turned on, locked, and connected to a power source. With your device information backed up in iCloud, you can easily set up a new device or restore information on one you already have.
Here’s what iCloud backs up:
Purchase history for music, movies, TV shows, apps, and booksYour iCloud backup includes information about the content you have purchased, but not the purchased content itself. When you restore from an iCloud backup, your purchased content is automatically downloaded from the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBooks Store. Some types of content aren’t downloaded automatically in all countries, and previous purchases may be unavailable if they have been refunded or are no longer available in the store. For more information, see the Apple Support article iTunes in the Cloud availability by country. Some types of content aren’t available in all countries. For more information, see the Apple Support article Which types of items can I buy in my country?.
Photos and videos in your Camera Roll
Device settings
App data
Home screen and app organization
iMessage, text (SMS), and MMS messages
Ringtones
Visual Voicemail
This Apple document describes the Photo Stream feature of iCloud: iCloud: My Photo Stream FAQ
For backing up files from your Mac you'll need a external hard drive and a backup applicaiton like Time Machine (comes with all Macs).

Currently have ipod touch 4 and am getting iphone 5c this weekend. Currently our family has several apple devices and they have the same apple ID for itunes and it is the same ID that we use for icloud. I want to set up a separate icloud ID so that it is only on my new device. I still want to keep the same apple ID for purchases. Can I do this and better yet when do I do this...before the purchase, after the purchase and backing up of data. Where do I go to create a new one?
Figured it out. Thanks.

Apple ID is not the same as iCloud ID and I need to activate my phone.
So my phone pooed itself and I had to reset it. That did not help and so I had to erase all of my settings. Upon getting to the activation page, it says that my apple ID is not the same as my iCloud ID....although that is the only ID that I have ever used for my phone.
Is there any way that I can remove my phone off of the iCloud and then proceed through activation a different way?
Thank you very much for the help!No. In order to reactivate your device have to provide the ID and password that were used to activate it originally. If you are not the original owner, you will have to contact the original owner to either get the ID and password, or have him/her erase the device and remove it from their account as explained here: Find My iPhone Activation Lock: Removing a device from a previous owner’s account. If you cannot contact the original owner you will not be able to activate and use your device. No one else can help you with this and there is no way around it.

HT204053 is mobile me the same as icloud

No, mobile me has been closed down. iCloud is only available with OS X 10.7.2 or later.

I still haven't found a satisfactory answer to this problem. That problem raises lots of complaints but apparantly Apple doesn't care...
The reason I asked is because your question appears in the category for the old Mac OS X v10.3 and earlier, not the current 10.7 (Lion). Therefore, your question will not be seen by as many forum users who are familiar with the topic.
You may want to re-ask, after selecting the appropriate category (starting here)
https://discussions.apple.com/index.jspa
I'll try to help too, if I can... If you use the same password to log in at icloud.com, does it work?
Using Mail, is the password always ("constantly") rejecting the password, or only sometimes? -
HT5622 Apple ID the same as iCloud email.
Hey,
I am new to Apple.
I have made my Apple ID the same as my iCloud email address, I also plan to use this email as my primary email address from now on.
I was wondering if this is okay/safe to do?Yes, it's OK. Be sure you use a secure password for it.

HT4859 is mobile me the same as Icloud for my mac pro?
im trying to get my devices synced but I cannot find Icloud on my macbook
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
iCloud requires OS X Lion or Mountain Lion. Open > About this Mac and check Version. If it's 10.5, buy Snow Leopard > http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard Then, make a backup, insert the DVD and upgrade. Finally, open > Software Update and install the most recent version.
If it's 10.6, go to > Software Update and install the most recent version. Finally, open App Store and purchase Mountain Lion. See if your apps are supported > http://www.roaringapps.com -
Is Air Drop the same as iCloud ?
Hi i have just started to download Lion, i see one of the features of Lion is AirDrop !, is this anything like iCloud ?.
I get the impression reading a bit deeper that Air Drop is for Mac's ONLY and iCloud is only for iPad's and/or iPhone's !! i am a little confused.
timNo. AirDrop works only on a local network and does not depend on any outside servers. It operates between 2 Macs running Lion. See this page for an explanation.
iCloud is a totally different thing. See this page.
Best of luck.
