Setup procedure for email via iCloud simultaniously on MacBook Pro-Retina, iPad2 and iPhone3GS

I am looking for a "clean" and official procedure to setup email incoming/outgoing/sync service via iCloud simultaneously on three different devices:
MacBook Pro-Retina ( Mac OS 10.7.x Lion)
iPad2 (with data plan via Verizon3G)
iPhone3GS (with data plan via AT&T)
Primary email account is [email protected], and iCloud is the only profile setup on all three devices at the moment.
Secondary email account is [email protected] but it is automatically forwarded to the primary one, as well.
However, in such simplified basic setup scenario, still multiple copies of the same email messages are received on MacBook, iPhone or iPad devices / mailboxes.
All of your suggestions, ideas and experience would be highly appreciated.
Thank you.

Here is the official documentation how to set up an iCloud account on your iOS devices, Mac, and PC: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/
To set up your iCloud account follow these steps:
- On your iPhone/iPad (iOS 5): Open "Settings > iCloud"
- On your Mac (Lion/Mountain Lion): "Open "System Preferences > iCloud" (If you do not have an iCloud icon in System Preferences: "System Preferences > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > iCloud")

  • Is it possible to virtually bypass the battery on a macbook pro (retina 2014) and power the mac directly via AC power?

    Is it possible to virtually bypass the battery on a macbook pro (retina 2014) and power the mac directly via AC power?
    E.g. Dell allows you to plug the laptop into AC power but prevent battery charging.
    Note: I do not want to physically remove the battery.
    If there isn't an option on Mac OS, is there anything I can download to bypass the battery when I want?

    Thanks for linking me! Wow I had no idea the clock speed would be cut so severely! What a bunch of rubbish, as if the AC won't provide enough power!
    I guess the only solution to my question would be an app which virtually disconnects the battery but tricks the mac into thinking the battery is still connected. I'm just surprised Apple haven't yet started to build prisons for the government - considering how well they lock up their software and hardware!

  • Will a superdrive connected to USB on Airport Extreme be accessable via Wifi with a Macbook Pro Retina display?

    I would like to connect 2 external drives to my Airport Extreme.

    Will the superdrive work over Wifi with my Macbook Pro Retina display;
    Or will it only work if connected to MBP via USB port on MBP?
    Thanks

  • Just bought a new MacBook Pro Retina 15" and am wondering what my best solution for managing Word files would be?

    Having been used to my PC Laptop and needing to generate and read Word documents - and the occasional Excel and Powerpoint files - I need to get a better solution for dealing with these on my new MacBook Pro Retina 15".
    Should I buy Office for Mac? if so, which version?
    Or is there a better way?

    Why not try Open Office? It's free and file compatible with MS Office.

  • Attachments Not Attaching in Any Email on Any Browser in MacBook Pro Retina Display

    I have the latest MacBook Pro with Retina display with quad core. No attachments whether pdf, images, or documents will attach to any email program on any browser on the Maverick OS. This is a defect only with the MacBook Pro. My iMac quad core works great with attachments as would be expected.
    Any answers as to why attachments fail to attach and gives the spinning beachball requiring a force quit. Eventually, I take the file on a memory stick to my iMac to attach it there on any browser with any email.

  • I bought a 3TB Time Capsule with the intent of using 2GB as space for Time Machine to backup my MacBook Pro Retina; and the remaining 1TB as network disk space for the Apple and my PC.  But the 3TB all went to the Time Machine.

    How can I get from what I have ti what I want.  I am a new Apple user and appreciate detailed instructions.  Thank You

    The TC is not able to be partitioned. (Well not without pulling it apart.)
    You can create a disk image on it.
    See details under Q3 here.

    It might be better to do as Pondini suggests and plug in a USB drive to use for alternative data storage.. Mixing TM and data can lead to issues.

  • My microsoft office 2011 for mac has stopped working on my macbook pro retina please help!!!

    I have 10.8.2 running on my macbook pro retina 15' and suddenly microsoft office wont work on it and i have no clue as to what it is. can someone pleaseshed some light onto what the issue could be?

    I have the exact same problem.  I started having the problem with MS Office 2008 after I installed a new harddrive in my imac (24-inch, Early 2009), OS X 10.8.4.  Everything was working fine and then when I try to open any Office app, the icon bounces in the dock, and nothing happens.
    I as searched for solutions, the obvious fix was to uninstall office (even all of the excess system files it leaves even after an uninstall).  When I a re-install Office 2008, it works for about 1 week and then it stops working again.
    Next I thought to try the new version of Office (Office 2011), so I did the trial download, and sure enough got the same problem.  After about 2 weeks, it stopped responding.  I have talked to MS support about this problem, and their suggestion was to uninstall and then reinstall, which I am becoming an expert at.
    I am also having an issue with Apple Mail and contacts becoming disconnected.  When created a new mail, typing in the receiptant does not pull up their email address even though it is in my address book.  The fix for this, which I do even other day is to delete a system folder in Library/Containers/com.apple.mail.  I do that, and it works for a few days.
    Any suggestions would be great.

  • Need advice on RAM i need for MacBook Pro Retina? Will 4GB Be Enough?

    Hi Everyone,
    Basically I am currently saving up for my MacBook Pro Retina(13") and I need some advice about RAM. I am a 14 year old student who is starting there GCSE's in September and I have no idea how much RAM i will need; I will be using my new MacBook on video editing(not intensive just in iMovie), GarageBand(occasional), Safari and iLife and I am a little worried that 4GB of RAM is not going to be enough to handle this. I know that I cannot upgrade the RAM after i have purchased the Mac but I don't really want to pay over £200/$300 just for extra storage and RAM when i don't really need it, what do you all think? any ideas?☺️

    Because memory is not upgradeable, you should get as much as you can afford. 4 GBs is a minimal requirements. I would suggest at least 8 GBs. The same goes of SSD storage space. Get more if you can. At least 256 GBs if you can afford it. Remember it is not what you will do tomorrow, but a couple of years from now that really matters.

  • 24-inch Mid 2007 as external display for Macbook Pro Retina?

    I'm a video editor looking for a new laptop. Tough decisions, but these facts may help my decision...
    Can I use my 24-inch Mid 2007 as external display for Macbook Pro Retina?
    And if so, would the Macbook be able to access the external hard drives that are connected to the iMac? Or do the external hard drives have to be connected to the Macbook Retina?
    Retina's picture quality is just incredible but compared to Macbook Pro non-retina you sacrifice: disc drive, port options, customization, anti-glare screen. And its more expensive. Arghh

    I would use the retina as the primary screen for the canvas and viewer, while putting the browser and timeline on the iMac.
    Apple won't help here. Unfortunately, they leave they're old products in the dust and wouldn't waste time writing an article about connecting a macbook retina to an '07 iMac.
    Thank you for replying though Ralph. The answer has to be out there somewhere.

  • MacBook Air, MacBook Pro Retina, or Non- Retina for academic high school student?

    I will be going into high school in September and am thinking of getting a MacBook for school. This is my first computer except for the family PC desktop. I am in all academic classes, and am taking business and exploring technology ( designing and building things) I would use the laptop for schoolwork as well as gaming ( nothing too intense, just stuff like portal and Garry's mod), internet, iTunes, and ilife. It will be a gift from at least 7 people, so price is important, but not a huge factor. I think a 13" screen in perfect for my needs. Would a MacBook Pro Retina, a MacBook Pro non- retina, or a MacBook Air be the best choice for me?

    If you use DVDs and CDs more than often (most people don't) then go for the MacBook Pro nonretina. I would go for the MacBook Air or pro retina because their graphics cards are much better then get a $40 usb DVD drive to load movies and other content. The MacBook Air and MacBook Pro retina also have "flash storage" and haswell chips making them super fast at opening files and applications and boosts oversell performance. You sound like you're not going to be doing any editing or graphics intense work so I would recommend the MacBook Air with 8gb ram and however much storage as you want. For around $100 more you could get the MacBook Pro retina that has the amazing display and better graphics. In the end, if the retina display would be the only real upgrade for you and price is in consideration, I would recommend the MacBook Air (also apple usually releases new model macbook airs in June so you could get one now or just wait. I would wait).
