Old G5 - can I still use iCloud?

I want to sync mail between my iPad, iPhone and Mac Desktop, but my desktop is running 10.5.8, not lion. My mobile devices are all running iOS 5. Will I be able to do this?

Mail doesn't sync as such - it is simply stored on the server and accessed there directly from each device/computer via IMAP.
You can manually setup iCloud email in 10.5.8 using these settings: iCloud: Mail server information

HT1864 Can I still use iCloud if I don't have Vista or Windows 7? I have XP.

Can I still use iCloud if I don't have Vista or Windows 7? I only have XP on my computer.

Yes, using iCloud does not require installing anything on your computer.
If you want to use the features of iCloud that do involve loading the iCloud Control Panel on the computer then you will need to either upgrade the OS on the computer or buy a new computer.

My iTunes is 60GB large, can I still use iCloud?

My iTunes is 60GB large, can I still use iCloud? I would like to use iCloud for everything (Calendar, Contancts, documents, iPhoto, etc...) but unsure if it's possible or worth the extra money. Thanks!

iCloud is free and you can use it regardless of the size of your iTunes Library.
iTunes Match is not free, and it has a 25GB limit.

HT204406 my computer bricked, can i still use iCloud?

my old pc bricked and i was wondering if i could download all my music to icloud from my iphone. not all my music is from itunes and i have no access to my old computer, however all my music is on my iphone.

Did you sign up to iCloud from your computer and upload your music to it before your computer failed ? If not then no, you can't use iCloud - that can only be set up from a computer's iTunes.
If all your music is only on your iPhone and you don't have it on a backup then you should be able to copy your iTunes purchases back from it to a computer's iTunes via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases. For music from other sources (e.g. copied from CDs, bought from other sites) then there are some programs listed half-way down this page which should be able to copy them back : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991

If I have Lion on my Macbook and snowleopard on my desktop can I still use iCloud?

I have Lion running with no problems. I also have two desktops with Snow Leopard on them. If I upgrade to iCloud from mac.me then will I still be able to sync between the computers?

You need Lion and iCloud unfortunately; iCloud is not supported by Snow leopard.

I have an old Macbook - can I still use Adobe Download assistant? (It says I need the latest AIR)

I have a macbook 2GHz Intel Core Duo, with Mac OS X 10.5.8. I therefore apparently can't download the latest version of Adobe AIR, and therefore cannot get the Adobe Download assistant to work to download a trial of InDesign. Do you know any way around this?
Thanks

You will need 10.6.8 and a multi-core Intel processor to run InDesign CS6 as well. You can find the necessary system requirements at http://www.adobe.com/products/indesign/tech-specs.html.

I'm have iPhone's & iPads with AT&T. I want to change to Verizon. Can I still use my old iPhone and iPads with the new company?

To change the iCloud ID you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then sign back in with the other ID. When you delete the account it will prompt you about what to do with the iCloud data. If you need to migrate it and merge it with the data in the new account choose Keep on My iDevice; then choose Merge to upload the data and merge it with the new account. If your data is already in the other account and you don't need to migrate it to the other account, choose Delete from My iDevice.

I use FCP 7 Studio on an iMac with Snow Leopard. If I upgrade to Lion so I can use iCloud, can I still use FCP 7?

I use FCP 7 Studio on an iMac with Snow Leopard (10.6.8). If I upgrade to Lion so I can use iCloud, can I still use FCP 7?

Thanks X! I use Office 2011 as this iMac is only a year old. I don't have Rosetta (is it an add-on?) at least, I've never seen it... so... you're saying I could upgrade to Lion with no ill effect to my FCP7 Studio and all it's files and my saved projects?

How do I turn off icloud on my iphone 4s? Can I still use Find My Phone?

How do I turn off icloud on my iphone 4s?
Can I still use Find My Phone?

You cannot use Find My iPhone without iCloud.
If you want to sign off of your iCloud account on your iPhone, you go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and sign out. It will ask for your password so it can turn off Find My iPhone before removing the iCloud account from your device.
Cheers,

Hi. I'm new to this and thought I already posted this question, but don't see it anywhere. My question: If I get a new iPhone, can I still use the old one like an iPod and download music and apps?

If I buy a new iphone, can I still use the old one like an ipod with my iMac and download music, videos and apps?

Absolutely, Yes. I'm sure that many iPhones are "recycled" that way within a family.
The worst that will happen is that once in a while it will remind you to activate it as a phone. Just ignore the notifications.

Hi my partner used my email address and iTunes account to set up his iPhone and now both our phones have merged! Does anyone know how to separate these? Can he still use our iTunes account with a different Id or email! Please help!!

HI my partner used my apple id and email address when setting up his iPhone so when he turned on iCloud our phones merged!! How do we undo this? Can he still use my iTunes account with a different Id and can he change the email on his phone without losing information? Also iPad is linked too, the family uses this and I would like to keep my phone separate! At the moment nothing is sacred! Please help! We are not very good with computers!!

Several things here so let me attempt to clarify.
For iCloud the reason the contacts where removed from he other device is because you updated your contacts, in this case deleted them, and then iCloud updated the other device to match. By deleting the iCloud account on the device it will stop the device from using that iCloud account and therefore nothing will change on the other device. By using a seperate Apple ID you can still use the features of iCloud, Find My iPhone comes to mind, without your content (contacts, message etc.) merging with the other device
For iTunes, you cannot use two Apple IDs for one account however if you use the same account iTunes on your computer will keep the content on each device seperate very nicely. You can also configure the settings for iTunes and the App store on each device to keep the content from automatically downloading to the other device. What I meant by share apps and music is this. What happens if you find a game, lets say Minecraft, that you really like and it cost, as Mincraft cost, $6.99USD. You buy it and play for a while and then you realize that your husband really likes the game as well. If you both use the same Apple ID for iTunes he can download the $7.00ish game to his device at no additional charge. If you use seperate Apple IDs for iTunes well... it look like he will also be paying for the game to have it on his account. Same goes for Music and Movies
I hope that clears things up. Let me know if you have anymore question.

Can I still use Appleworks 6.2.9 with Mac Mini 2012?

Can I still use Appleworks 6.2.9 with Mac Mini 2012?

Yes, MlchaelLAX, the KVM switch allow one to use one monitor, one keyboard, and one mouse between two computers. It has been so long that I'm not sure how to find the MODELS to the G4 and G5. Unless you mean what makes the Mac tick. The G5 is a dual 2GHz PowerPC, with 2 GB DDR SDRAM. The G4 is a bit slower, will look tomorrow.
I want/need a newer Mac model because unlike the days before OS X, all software was included as the newer OS were added, not so today. I'm still using Tiger because I still use a couple programs from the old days. When I eventually purchase a new model, I will have to buy all new software. That's find if one has plenty of money and wants to learn everything from scratch, but I'm hanging on as long as I can.
I tried TenFourFox, but it didn't allow video, of course since I tried Michael's suggestion, the video might not be an issue. So far, every thing works the way it should.
I have a lot of faith in Mac users, their loyalties to Apple is what kept Apple floating when many thought it would sink. These folks are survivors; I only wish the apple people on the top appreciated that loyalty today, but I guess things are too good.
Thanks to all for you kindness. Tomorrow I will show my husband how to remove his yellow threat on his G4. If anyone can answer any other questions, please know I will keep viewing this post.
