You can retain your email on Leopard, though no other iCloud facilities will work. You will need to migrate at http://me.com/move, and then delete the MobileMe from the Mail application and set it up manually for iCloud - the method is described here:
Entering iCloud email settings manually in Snow Leopard or Leopard
Any email aliases you have will be transferred to iCloud.
When you migrate your calendars and contacts will be removed from MobileMe but will not appear on iCloud; the data on your Mac will not be affected but cannot be synced with iCloud. You can access the iCloud website at http://icloud.com but you would have to enter any data separately.
There are two other options available at a cost:
BusyCal is an iCal-like calendar application with extra facilities: it can sync with the iCloud Calendar while running on Leopard, Snow Leopard or Lion. A single user licence (two machines allowed) is $49.99.
Soho Organizer can sync Calendars and Contacts with iCloud on Leopard, Snow Leopard and Lion. A single user licence (multiple machines allowed) is $99.99.

  • If I download the newest version of iTunes to my Mac will I lose everything on iTunes from my version i have now

    You should lose nothing.
    However, this does not change the fact that you should ALWAYS have a backup copy of everything in your computer, including itunes.
    You should ALWAYS make sure that your backup copy of your computer is up to date before any update, restore, etc.

  • I havent updated my operating system on my iphone 3gs in over a year will i lose all my numbers by doing it?

    I didn't have any issues till I had to get the screen replaced yesterday because I finally dropped it one too many times.  By doing so some of  my apps were deleted, ie: Facebook and others. I tried to redownload them but my phone has not been synced since i bought it basically well over a year ago.
    I am afraid of losing my numbers. I was able to save photos and videos to the computer but have yet to down load/sync my phone.

    If you are running iOS 4 or higher you can use an app like My Contact Backup to back up your contacts prior to updating.  If not, consider backing them up to cloud service like Google.

  • How can I get all photos from iPhoto to automatically back up to iCloud from my Mac OSX Version 10.6.8 operating system.  Not enough memory to upgrade.

    How can I get all photos from iPhoto to automatically back up to iCloud from my Mac OSX Version 10.6.8 operating system.  Not enough memory to upgrade.

    You can't.  iCloud is not for general file backup from a Mac. It's for backup up and syncing data between mobile devices and and Macs and  The following is from this Apple document: iCloud: Backup and restore overview.
    iCloud automatically backs up the most important data on your (mobile) device using iOS 5 or later. Once you have enabled Backup on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch .....
    What is backed up
    You get unlimited free storage for:
    Purchased music, movies, TV shows, apps, and books
    Notes: Backup of purchased music is not available in all countries. Backups of purchased movies and TV shows are U.S. only. Previous purchases may not be restored if they are no longer in the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBookstore.
    Some previously purchased movies may not be available in iTunes in the Cloud. These movies will indicate that they are not available in iTunes in the Cloud on their product details page in the iTunes Store. Previous purchases may be unavailable if they have been refunded or are no longer available in the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBookstore.
    You get 5 GB of free iCloud storage for:
    Photos and videos in the Camera Roll
    Device settings (for example: Phone Favorites, Wallpaper, and Mail, Contacts, Calendar accounts)
    App data
    Home screen and app organization
    Messages (iMessage, SMS, and MMS)
    Ringtones
    Visual Voicemails
    But not from a Mac.  If you want to backup your photos and other important files I suggest you get an external hard drive and use  it with Time Machine.

    What version of iPhoto. iPhoto 11 9.4.3 (720.91)
    What version of the Operating System. OSX 10.8.3
    Detail.  I Attach my camera and the fields where the photos usually show up are empty and at the top of the screen it says all photos from camera are downloaded. But they are not. They can't be.
    I fixed the problem somewhat myself by removing the miniSD and manually inserting it. It did not populate automatically. I had to open iPhoto and then it populated only the most recent photos I had taken which fortunately were the only ones I need. No error messages this seems to be a new occurrence.
    Is there a way to just turn iPhoto off and download my photos to the folder of my own choosing?

    Sure - in the iPhoto prefercences set action when a camera is ocnnected to Image Capture

  • How do I go back to the previous version? New one is not compatible with my OSX version.

    I'm running 10.4.11 and had Firefox 3.6.something. I installed the Firefox update, assuming that if it was not compatible with my OSX version, it wouldn't install. First mistake, huge. I need to go back to my previous version. I don't have system resources to upgrade the OS version.

    The last Firefox version that runs on Mac OS X 10.4 is Firefox 3.6.28.
    Current Firefox versions require a Mac with an Intel processor and OS X 10.6 (Firefox 16 runs on Intel Mac OS X 10.5).
    Firefox 3.6.28:

  • HT5988 I downloaded Mavericks and now my WD Smartware that I use for Time Machine is no longer compatible with this OSX version?  How do I make that unit compatible?  olefromca

    I downloaded Mavericks and now my WD Smartware that I use for Time Machine is no longer compatible with this OSX version?  How do I make that unit compatible?  olefromca

    I agree entirely, been messing with this since the upgrade to Mavericks but I didn't find it quite as easy as uninstalling the WD smartware as it still operates when you plug the drive back in - I think it gets loaded onto the drive and runs from within (?). The advice from WD was that time machine was faulty and I should contact Apple...thanks guys!
    Anyway, for the OP's benefit, this is what I found:
    1. My problem was that time machine couldn't see any further back than before the Mavericks install, but if I opened up and interrogated the WD drive, the old backups were still there.
    2. When TM started doing new backups, it overwrote the ones that it could see, not the oldest ones on the drive. This indicated to
    me that the WD software had somehow partitioned off the old backups and excluded that part of the drive from being overwritten. Of course, as the drive was practically full, it meant that any new backups wouldn't fit in the available space.....
    3. The only way I could find to resolve this was to use the disc utility to erase and repartition the external drive. This will obviously remove all of the old files and backups, but I was more concerned about keeping a current profile as backup rather than a load of stuff from months ago.
    4. Anyway, what happens after the eraseure has completed is that you get the WD icon on the desktop, and you're invited to install the software - this means the software has now been deleted. Juts don't reinstall it, just let TM do it's backup and all is well.
    Usual disclaimers and warnings about keeping another copy of your system etc. obviously apply, and I know this is a radical move to delete all your old data but it worked for me. I guess I didn't appreciate that you could use the external drive without the software that came with it and just followed the screen guide.
    I'm also aware that if you don't want to use TM to do a complete restore and only want to find one old version of a document, this is difficult. However, you can then install the WD software and find the file but you'll then have to do this all again.....

    All you need to upgrade the iBook for Tiger is another 128 MBs of RAM. It has both Firewire and USB ports. You do want to upgrade it for what you plan to do. The problem you may continue to have, however, may be due to the fact that the age of the computer is such the disk controller does not support hard drive volumes larger than 128 GBs, which is probably the reason the drive won't mount.
    The reason you get DU errors is likely because the drive was formatted using the Intel Tiger version of DU, while you were using the Jaguar version. That's a definite no-no.

    You can run iPhoto 9.2.3 with the system you currently have. It's available thru iLife 11 as Niel has already mentioned.

  • I just upgraded to OSX version 10.8.3 and since then all animations are defective. The dock is jerky! The effects of opening and closing windows ranging in shots!  What should I do?

    I just upgraded to OSX version 10.8.3 and since then all animations are defective.
    The dock is jerky!
    The effects of opening and closing windows ranging in shots!
    What should I do?

    You can check the status of your drive's indexing by clicking the Spotlight menu to see if there is a progress bar at the bottom of it, and can also open Activity Monitor and click the "%CPU" column to sort by CPU usage, to see if the processes "mds" or "mdworker" are currently active and using your CPU.
    If so, then wait for them to finish. However, if not then try rebooting and then hold the Shift key immediately after you hear the boot chimes. This will load the system into Safe Mode, which should run some checks and maintenance routines on the system. Then reboot normally to see if the problem persists.
    How much RAM do you have installed on your system? You can see this by choosing About This Mac from the Apple menu.
