Store with out syncing.

I would like to use my iCloud drive as a sort of long term storage for photos.  Storage that is outside of the house in the event something happens and all my storage in the house is wrecked. 
The problem I'm running into is that every time I move a folder to the iCloud drive it replicates in the iCloud folder in Mobile Documents and thus eats up serious space on my MacBook.
Is there a way for me to turn off syncing and still maintain access to the drive?
Thanks for taking the time to read my post!

As an update to this, just spoken with 3's technical Mailbox Service Team in Glasgow who have now confirmed that as 3 use a 'USim', this is what is causing the issues. 3 are not providing a work around solution for this, so I'll have to change to my network service provider in order to get the car kit to work!
How frustrating that neither the 3 nor nokia website point out the incompatibilities!

    Unlikely to be possible.
    The iPhone/iPod Touch is designed to only sync to one computer at a time.
    What you are attempting to do is sync to a 2nd computer, even though it is likely the exact same computer.
    The only option that might be possible is using the manually manage music on this device option.

    what do i do when a audio book i purchased is not in purchased menu for re downloading for my account, or why cant i re download the book from iTunes store with out paying for it after support they told me i could.
    i tried to re download a purchased audio book after i contacted apple support team for iTunes they said it would be ready for re download or they said id have to re download it from iTunes store i cant remember, so i tried both couldn't re download it from purchased menu and the book id have to re download from iTunes store costs money as if i have never purchased what do i do? I don't have any warranty any more or money to purchase another warranty.

    Thank you for your prompt reply.  I have bought 1 MacbookPor 17, 1 Macbook air, 1 MacbookPro 15 , 2 ipads, 3 iphones, and this iMac27 and 2 of iMAC24 or 20 not sure   but I do not recall ever doing what you are telling me in your reply.   When you get a extended car warranty, you don't   sign up for it.. it is just there and is included in the sale.   You don't buy this warranty to use it.. You buy it, in case something happens.   Here a perfect iMAC with minimum 100 hour useage has a dead drive.  That is not normal and I should not have to even be requesting anything since most MFG offer a 3-5 year warranty on their disc drives and I believe that is probably passed on to Apple regardless if an extended warranty is purchased or not.   Customer service dictates a more flexible approach to make sure the lifetime value of a customer is not lost due to some misunderstanding.
    I was in the MacStore that I purchased the unit..and they found and pulled the invoice and confirmed
    the purchase of it in front of me.  I had paid with credit card and fortunately it was there in their system.   I do not also recall recieving any box or paper although most everything I ever get remains sealed.. I am not in the habit of opening anything since I have never encountered any serious issues before.
       I have used my Macbookpro warranty 1 time  and that is all throughout the years I have been investing in Apple equipment.
    I just recieved a letter from the store asking me to get the paper to them so they can register it... I don't recall getting any paper actually.  But I do have several boxes sealed here..  On this iMAC27, it was a hurry up and get it done thing and I don't remember taking anything extra with it.   Regardless,  my request does not seem unreasonable.
    Thank you

  • If i use 3g internet can i download app from app store with out wifi Internet ?

    -

    If the app is less than 20 meg then yes you should be able to - there is a 20 meg download limit per file of 3G which can't be changed/overridden. For any content (apps, films, tv shows, podcasts etc) over 20 meg you will need to find a wifi network for your iPad in order to download them directly on the iPad, or download them on your computer and then sync them across to the iPad

  • HT2534 I have apple ID with out Visa card but I can't use to Tunis store please help me to open Tunis with out Visa card

Thanks for your kind immediately support !!!!

    If you follow, exactly, the instructions on the HT2534 page that you posted from when creating a new account (the instructions won't work with existing accounts) then you will get the 'none' option - I tried it earlier today on both my computer's iTunes and iPhone and I got 'none' for new accounts on both. If you don't use those instructions then credit card details will need to be entered before the account can be used in the store.

    If you want to try using the same email address on a new account then you will need to replace it on that one first e.g. via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes or http://appleid.apple.com

  • How can I sync my ipod 6g. to a new computer with out losing all the info

    My computer is starting to fail so I bought a new one. How do I sync my ipods they are 6 gen to the new computer with out losing all the data that is on the ipod?

    Was your iPod previously set up to Manually Manage (where you dragged/dropped the music) or was it set to auto sync (where it started sycning as soon as you plugged it in.)?
    If it was set to Manual, you have no worries. Just continue on your way.
    If it was set to Auto, you will have to transfer your purchases or redownload them from the iTunes store.
    You're either going to have to get the other music back from the websites/CDs you got them from before or find an iPod ripping software program that will do it for you.

  • I have a friend who was going to sync her phone with my computer to get the new update..  how do i add her phone with out her losing everything on her phone and not getting all my info on her phone..

    i have a friend who was going to sync her phone with my computer to get the new update..  how do i add her phone with out her losing everything on her phone and not getting all my info on her phone..

    First, create a separate login on your computer for your friend. Do this BEFORE you do anything else. Next, make sure iTunes is up to date. Then:
    1. Disable auto sync when an iPod/iPhone is connected under Preferences>Devices in iTunes.
    2. Make sure you have one contact & one event in the supported applications(Address Book, iCal) on your computer. These entries can be fake, doesn't matter, the important point is that these programs not be empty.
    3. Connect her phone, iTunes running, do not sync at this point.
    4. Store>Authorize this computer.
    5. File>Transfer Purchases(To make sure all purchased content on her phone will be in her itunes library).
    6. Right click in the device pane & select reset warnings.
    7. Right click again and select backup.
    8. Right click again & select restore from backup, select the backup you just made. When prompted to create another backup, decline.
    9. This MUST be followed by a sync to restore her itunes content, which you select from the various tabs, You'll get a popup regarding her contacts & calendars asking to merge or replace, select merge.
    You should be good to go.

  • How do I install mavericks on a macbook with out the app store?

    Okay, so this has been very annoying lately. So, long story short, I had to erase my HDD on my Macbook Pro which erased my operating system, and I do not have an OS X install disk. Is there a way to get OS X Mavericks with out having to go to the app store? I'm running OS X 10.5.8 Darwin on a 2007 iMac. So, I do not have access to the App Store. I am only 16 and I don't have a credit card to spend the 20 dollars on upgrading the OS to 10.6.0 Snow Leopard. Is this possible to get Mavericks so I can put it on a USB and install it, or no? The Macbook Pro is just a regular Mid 2012 13 inch with 4gb RAM, an Intel 2.5 i5 Processor, and a 500gb hard drive. Please help, I do not want to have this amazing notebook hanging around that I can not use. Thanks.

    If this is for a 2012 MBP, the you can do this:
    Install Mavericks, Lion/Mountain Lion Using Internet Recovery
    Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
    Boot to the Internet Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND-OPTION- R keys until a globe appears on the screen. Wait patiently - 15-20 minutes - until the Recovery main menu appears.
    Partition and Format the hard drive:
    Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
    After DU loads select your newly installed hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion. Mavericks: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks and click on the Install button. Be sure to select the correct drive to use if you have more than one.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
    This should restore the version of OS X originally pre-installed on the computer.

  • My computer that my ipod was sync to crashed and i have got a new one but i can't sync my ipod without wipping it clean, how do i do it with out lossing the years worth of music

    ok, i think i posted all my question in the title LOL, I had sync my ipod to my computer over 2yrs ago, my computer crashe and now i have a new one. It will not let my sync my ipod with out reseting my ipod which will delet everthing on it. The problem is all the songs i bought on itunes is backed up on icloud, but i have alot that is from cds that i know longer have and if i did a reset i would lose all that. I'm a worship leader and children's church leader so alot of these songs i need and use ever week. is there any way i can do this without losing alot?

    What did you do with the SIM from the iPhone 4? You need to "activate" the phone, but it does not need to be a SIM that is connected to service. It is just what happens when you update the phone. In this case, activation does not mean to activate it on a cellular carrier, but just to activate the phone so it works. If the SIM is still in the old phone, then follow these instructions and see if that helps. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3406
