My systems preference does not have an iCloud icon. How do I get one?

I am trying to sync my computer with my iphone 4S. I have an iCloud account.
It syncs my contacts and calender. I am trying to do the photo stream. But
in System Preferences there is not an icloud icon. There is a mobileme icon, but
I do not use a mobileme account. What do I do to get the iCloud on my mac.

Ah, ok, so what you need to do is order the retail Snow Leopard disk first (10.6) - either from the Apple store or online resellers ($29). Install that and update to the latest version - 10.6.8. Once there, you will note a new app called Mac App Store - that is where you go (using your iTunes account) and buy Lion 10.7 - it is a very large download (close to 4 GB) and not available as a DVD. Once downloaded, dismiss the installer and immediately go to your Applications folder. Find the Installer and copy it to another location for safekeeping/future use (so you don't have to download it again). Then double click the installer and run it.
Note: PowerPC apps will no longer work under Lion (i.e. Appleworks, Quicken).

My iphone 3gs does not have a wifi button how can i get one

as my tittle states i dont have a wifi button can i get one ?

First things first: you bought this iPhone second-hand from someone you know. That person must have used his iTunes account to activate the phone. Have you tried connecting your iPhone to your computer (Mac or PC, doesn't matter) via USB and have it recognized by iTunes on your computer? If not, you'll have to activate the iPhone first. iTunes will do that for you, provided the former user has notified Apple he has sold his iPhone to you. Then, there's the question of your mobile phone provider: iPhones are network-locked. You can't buy an iPhone from someone who's, say, an Orange customer, then use it on another network than Orange's (in the US, of course, that point is moot). Only way to unlock your phone is to jailbreak it, but it's risky, and frankly, I don't think you'll find a lot of info on this forum on the subject... First off, check on which operator network you friend was.

I hope you mean the iPhone 4S.
If you have an Apple TV or an AirPort Express, Airplay will automatically available to you.

I dont have an icloud icon how can i get it?

i dont have an icloud icon how can i get it..?

iCloud is not an icon, it is a menu in Settings, and requires iOS 5 or later. Update your iPad by connecting to iTunes to get iCloud.

My ipad 2 do not have a update icon how can i make it appear

The option to update without the computer (Over the air) was made available with iOS 5. If your iDevice is using a version of iOS lower than 5, you will need to use iTunes on your syncing computer to perform the upgrade. Use the Apple link below as a guide for the upgrade.

I have accidentally change my "Apple start-page" to one that does not have "search" window. How do I get back to my original Safari start up page?

When I am in safari and go to a site, I now do not have a place to "search". I accidently lost the original page that appears when going to safari. How do I get back to my original "start-page" that I started with?

I think you may mean the search box on the toolbar. In Safari click on the View menu and select Show Toolbar.
Alternatively, if you mean the 'Home Page' then open Safari -> Preferences -> General and next to 'Homepage' put in the address of the page you want - I'm guessing "http://www.google.com/".

HT5395 my mac does not have the iMessage app how can i get it?

I have a Mac laptop with the OS X. My friends with macs are able to sync their iMessages to their laptop and temporarily communicate through their computers instead of their phones. I cannot find this on my computer. How can I set it up?

Back up your data, check your applications for compatibility, and download Mavericks from the Mac App Store. If you get told that it's incompatible with the computer, you can't.

That's because the YouTube video you saw was from an old version of FCPX before the change in the Share interface. Here's how you do that now:

Hi Joycars,
Can you not simply sign out of the iCloud account with the incorrect email? Not sure I'm following?

How do I adjust double click speed in Mountain Lion. The mouse system preferences does not seem to have a speed slider for double clicking. Only the tracking speed slider is visible.

Double clicking is no longer opening my folders.
How can I adjust the double click speed in Mountain Lion to reduce the double clicking speed. The mouse system preferences does not seem to have a speed slider for double clicking. Only the tracking speed slider is visible.

For 10.8.3, it's in System Preferences > Accessiblity > highlight Mouse & trackpad on the left. The Double click speed slider shows on the right. Moving it to the left gives you more time between clicks. Moving it right gives you less time.

I do not have the icloud icon on my mac I have something that says mobile me and it does not accept my apple credentials

I do not have the icloud icon on my mac I have something that says mobile me and it does not accept my apple credentials. How can I get the correct icloud icon

What Mac OS X do you have? ICloud requires 10.7.2 or higher. Then the iCloud icon is in System Preferences.

Systems preferences does not work

My Systems Preferences does not work, either reminders and messages... since Mavericks(10.9) Programs do not respond and Macbook air is not responding.... Help.....

Well, you are certainly correct that the fact that the "wired" machines work sure doesn't rule out a faulty router....But that's why (as part of a process of elimination troubleshooting scheme) I hooked up my old Linksys Router, and got the same results. Now...What are the odds of 2 separate routers acting the same way? Especially when both worked fine on my TIPB and even on my MBP until a few months ago. Plus, my 12 year old son can pull a wireless signal from the router on his console games (xbox360, Wii, PS3) with no problem
Believe me, my first thought was to go out and buy another router, but when I swapped routers and got the same problem, I began to look elsewhere, eventually coming here for help and knowledge.
I did the SMC reset to no avail. I'm not sure about the stuff in System Configuration....By "pull" do you mean to delete all the files in this folder? Move them to a temporary folder? Should I just deal with the folders that have "IP" in the "bundle" file name?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Since upgrading to Lion OS, the wifi connectivity keeps blocking up intermittently and we need to manually keep switching on and off the wifi utility to get the connection back. even locking the preferred wifi network in system preferences does not help.

Since upgrading to Lion OS 10.7.1, the wifi connectivity keeps blocking up intermittently and we need to manually keep switching on and off the wifi utility to get the connection back. even locking the preferred wifi network in system preferences does not help. This never used to happen with Snow Leopard

This is a big thank you to Rys Sinnefeldt who posted this fix.
Rys has made this fix very easy to do and takes literally 2 mins. It involves replacing the Atheros Lion driver 4.0 and replacing it with the snow leopard driver. Don't worry, Rys has made this so simple to do even I could do it and so far I have had no more wifi drops.
