Is there a way to have iCloud stream into a reference iPhoto library on Mac?

I would like to use iColud to get photos from my iPhone onto my Mac. But, from what I have read, even if you set up your iPhoto library as a referenced library, iCloud imports photos directly into the library rather than storing them on disk as indiviudal and having iPhoto reference them like your other photos. Is this correct, and if so, is there any way around it?

If you are both using the same iCloud account all your calendars will appear on all your devices.
If you are using separate iCloud accounts each of you should share the required calendars privately so the other can subscribe. Please see this page:

and expand 'Share a private calendar or reminder list with specific people'.

Is there a way to have some sort of stereo mix audio input for mac?

Is there a way to have some sort of stereo mix audio input for mac? also so i can have a voice over?

Actually, after scouring the web, I see that RogueAmoeba also has a free utility called LineIn which simply sends the audio in to the audio out and doesn't interfere with other programs like iTunes!
On the other hand, after downloading and trying it, there is a noticeable latency between what goes in and what comes out.
The latency is in the computer, not the software. Most of the latency is in the A/D and D/A conversion.
You need to connect the analog input to the analog output directly to get zero latency.

Is there any way to have photo stream to sync to my pictures folder like it did before installing iLife 11?

Hi,
Before installing iLife 11, my photo stream synced to the (Finder)Pictures- Photo Stream - which I very much liked.
Now I have installed iLife 11, iPhoto has taken over and the photos syncthere, not in the original Photo Stream folder.
Is there any way for me to revert syncing to the pictures folder ratherthan with iPhoto?
2 reasons why:
1 - I have to copy the photos out of iPhoto which is annoying, there’sno point in having a auto sync if I have to copy out of iPhoto, I might aswell becopying off my phone.
2 - photos only sync when iPhoto is open so I have to wait for them todownload whereas before they synced as I took them and when I got in, they were'just there' and now I have to wait.
If anyone can suggest a solution for me that would be great, I don’twant to remove iPhoto from my system so that’s not an option.
If there isn’t a solution, what’s Apple playing at? Surely this isfrustrating for users other than me?
Thanks in advance.

Is there a way to have iCloud NOT sync rules in Mountain Lion Mail?

My wife and I each have our own MacBook Pro on Mountain Lion and we share an iPad on iOS 6. We use OS X Mail as our mail client for our accounts on our ISP mail service. We have iCloud enabled on all three devices but we have Mail disabled on all three.
Every time either of us makes a change to a Mail rule on our MacBook, it is pushed to the other MacBook. But we need different rules since we have multiple mail accounts and have different interests in each of them. I finally noticed by clicking the little ? icon in the rules window that the rules are synced if you have Documents and Data selected in iCloud NOT Mail. We also use iWork on all three devices so we want Documents and Data enabled for sharing documents between the devices.
So is there a way to keep from screwing up each other's Mail rules without losing access to our iWork documents??? The only thing we have come up with is prefacing every rule name with our initials so for example my rule can file a message and hers can move it to Trash. But this is also a pain since you cannot sort the rules by name in the rules window.

Hello Tom:
To my knowledge, no.

Is there a way to have iCloud download both my and my wife's calendar on my iPhone and Mac?

My wife and I both have iMacs and iphones with the right software. She also has an iPad. It would be very helpful if there were a way for iCloud to download and update both her and my calendars on all of our Apple products. Is there a way to do this?If this is too difficult, is there a way we can just get my calendar on her iPad and have iCloud update it?

Is there any way to sync iCloud drive to a local folder on my Mac?

Hi there,
I would like to have a local copy of my documents held in iCloud Drive. I understand that I can set up subfolders in the iCloud Drive folder in finder, but assume these are not held locally??
I have a application called Goodsync that I used to keep my dropbox folder synced with my docs folder, but I assume this program won't work as I cannot find iCloud drive locally to tell it to sync my document folder with (which I used to do with Dropbox very easily).
I'm aware there is another thread on this point, but to be honest the content of that thread is rather beyond me. I'm aware that if there is a local version of iCloud Drive, it is likely to take some time to sync with iCloud.com, but at the moment I don't even know if there is a local copy of iCloud Drive. I feel there must be as I can copy content to the iCloud Drive on my mac pretty instantly (but it doesn't obviously sync with iCloud.com instantly).
Any pointers much appreciated
Cheers
Justin

All folders and files on the iCloud drive are duplicated on your hard drive. They are located in the Users/Home/Library/Mobile Documents folder
It will take a bit of time for additions to the iCloud Drive folder
to be synced to the online iCloud.com Drive folder.

Is there a way of persuading iCloud to sync the smart groups I have in address book on my Mac

I have a small number of smart groups in address book on my iMac. but these do not sync through iCloud to my Macbook or iPod touch. Everythin else syncs even ordinary groups, but not the smart groups. Is there a way of persuading iCloud to do it? I can fully sync my Macbook contacts by exporting an archive from the iMac and then comying and importing this to the Macbook. But this is old technology.

If I have an iphone that didn't come with icloud, is there a way to get icloud on it so I can use it with my ipad 4?

If I have an iphone that didn't come with icloud, is there a way to get icloud on it so I can use it with my ipad 4? I think my iphone is a 3g, not sure.

Do I have to have iTunes on my PC in order to update my iPhone. I'd rather not have my computer linked with my iPad and phone. I'd like to just keep it between iPad and iPhone. I don't have a computer of my own.

Is there a way to have PDFs save to ICloud but accessible through IBooks?

Is there a way to have PDFs save to ICloud but accessible through IBooks?

The Cloud is for Apple-purchased items only. To get pdfs across multiple devices, you can email them, sync them through itunes or save to an app like Dropbox (a cloud-based service) and open in iBooks.

Is there a way to use iCloud Photo Library WITHOUT syncing?

The idea I had of iCloud Photo Library was that I could upload my pictures to it and access them from all my devices WITHOUT having to sync them.
At the end of every month, I move all the photos from my phone to my computer. It helps me save space and keep things tidy. With iCloud Library, I want to access all my photos, but it looks like I must sync them through iCloud, and then to save space in my phone, I have to select "optimise space for iPhone". Is there any way to use iCloud Photo Library as a mere cloud storage? I don't want to keep photos on my phone, neither full resolution or "optimised" ones. I want to put them on iCloud, and when I need them, then I want my phone to download them.
I realise I could use other cloud storage providers for this, but I have always liked Apple's integration with their own services, so if possible, I would like to use iCloud Photo Library without syncing to my devices. Just keep my stuff in iCloud, and when I tap it, download it.

Doesn't work well in IE8 (9 I would think is ok), but is fine in the current version of Chrome.

Is there a way to have two payment cards under one apple id

Is there a way to have two payment cards under one apple id?

You're confusing icloud and itunes store accounts. Individual users should have their own icloud accounts (using their Apple ID) but multiple users can share the same ID for logging into the itunes store account.

TS4036 I purchased an iphone for my daughter and we are using the same account and she deleted some contacts from her phone and they were deleted off of my contacts as well. Is there a way to use icloud backup to reinstall the contacts to my phone?

Welcome to the Apple community.
You can only restore them from a Computer backup. This has occurred because you are sharing an iCloud account. ideally you should each have your own iCloud account, that way you can each manage your own mail, contacts, calendars, documents etc and avoid unintentional deletions and unwanted editing. If there is information you wish to share between you, this can be done with a secondary account.
Having separate iCloud accounts, doesn't mean you have to have separate iTunes accounts, so whilst you keep your personal data separate, you can continue to share music, apps, books, TV shows, movies etc.

When I reply to emails my reply is at the bottom of the thread-is there a way to have my replies at the top so my recipients see them?

When I reply to emails using icloud my reply is at the bottom of the thread where none of my recipients see it-they think I am not adding any content. Is there a way to have my replies at the top of the thread so my recipients see them?

This is so horribly frustrating! If you just hit "Reply" and start typing, your new reply starts right at the end of the original message, without even a carriage return. It's the exact opposite of how MobileMe -- and most other mail apps -- work.
Can we either:
Move the cursor position in replied messages back to the top, as it was before; or
Add the option in Preferences to determine where you'd like your cursor to appear when you reply to messages

Is there a way to have the calender results in a global search on an iPhone to appear in reverse cronological order?

Is there a way to have the calender results in a global search on an iPhone to appear in reverse cronological order?

I guess not... (at least not on 5.x!!). I would just like the calendar search to return results in chronological order of any sort. With iCloud calendars and OS 5.1.1 it lists all the results (by date order) for one calendar, and then does all the results for the other one, which is a bit tiresome. Strangely it all works fine with Google calendars... But maybe I will just use spotlight search to get round this problem for now.
