Trying to set up iCloud onmy iMac and the iCloud icon does not appear in System Preferences under "Internet

I am trying to set up iCloud on my iMac and the iCloud icon does not appear in system preferences under "internet & wireless". How do I proceed. I have already set it up on my iPad & iPhone.

You have to upgrade to Lion for the iCloud preferences to be available.

    To check your model go to About This Mac (by clicking on the Apple icon, top left) and then select more info. If you wish to use mirroring you will need one from 2011 or later running OSX 10.8 or later. The alternative would be to use 3rd party software like Airparrot.

  • Installed new harddrive and I am trying to restore from time machine external back up. I restarted the computer and held the Command key and the R and the restore utility does not appear. what can I do

    I installed new hard drive and I am trying to restore from time machine external back up. I restarted the computer and held the Command key and the R and the restore utility does not appear. what can I do

    Command + R keys are for Macbooks running Lion and Mountian Lion only. ( i could be wrong on this)
    you have a couple of options:
    Do a clean install of Snow Leopard via Install DVD.
    Clone your old hard drive to your new hard drive via Carbon Copy Cloner
    Or click on the link below to give you a better idea.
    Hope you get it sorted out.

  • I'm attempting to create a pdf from InDesign and the Illustrator image does not appear properly.

    I'm attempting to create a pdf from InDesign and the Illustrator logo does not appear properly. The logo has a light blue color background with a black to white gradiant over it with a multiply designation set at 100%.  I flattened the logo in illustrator before importing into InDesign. When the pdf is created, the blue background of the logo drops out and the only thing showing is the graduated screen of black. PLEASE HELP!!!!!!

    Thanks for your reply Peter,
    I'm on Mac OSX (10.5.8) using Acrobat 7 Professional and Acrobat 
    Reader 9 to view the pdf. I created it by exporting. Attached is a 
    screen capture of the letterhead. Since I posted, I sent a test pdf to 
    my partner's computer eventhough it didn't look right on my system and 
    she said it looked fine to her. I've restarted my computer and tried 
    again and still get the same results.
    Thanks for your help,

  • TS3212 I am trying to install itunes on my pc and the run window will not appear. I changed the pop-up blocker settings and I still can't see it?

    I am trying to install itunes for my pc and the run window will not come up and I have changed my pop-up blocker settings and it still will not appear.....help?

    I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:

    If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?

  • I'm in Lightroom 4 and trying to type text into individual slides and the text box does not let me

    In help Lightroom 4 tells me to go custom text pop-up in the slideshow module and choose a metadata option. All I want to do is add some text to some of the slides in my slide show. Since text and or caption options are not avaliabe I tried using the title option which brought up a text box that I could place on the screen but NOT type into, why not? what am I missing here? Also after editing the 490 photos I want to put them onto a DVD as an OTHG 2011 file to give to my backpacking group but Lightfoom does not explain how to create these DVDs. Thanks for your help. Hart 

    When you set that popup to 'Title', say, the slides will get a label that is filled in from the 'title' metadata, which you set for each photo in the Library Module.
    Try it.

  • ICloud does not appear in system preferences?

    Just bought a used macbook with OSX Lion already installed on it. The issue is that iCloud is not in the System Preferences
    and I would like to find out what I have to do to get this application to appear? Please help...

    If you have Lion, check to see the version.
    You are most likely running version 10.7.1 in which you will need to run Software Update and update your computer to version 10.7.2 to get iCloud in System Preferences.

  • I have a 21.5 inch iMac and the disc drives does not let me insert a disc

    i have had my mac for over a year and this problem just started 2 days ago. I try to insert dvds and cds and it won't accept anything into the drive. I looked on here yesterday for tips but none worked. Does anybody know what to do?

    There have been a few reports on here where Corsair RAM seems to have caused users a lot of grief with crashes.
    The recommendation on here, mostly, is to only buy RAM from macsales.com or crucial.com as they guarantee their modules will work and offer a no quibble lifetime guarantee.
    I'd put the original RAM back in, return the Corsair chips for a refund and re-order from one of those two companies.

  • I got a new imac and the airport utility does not work with my older airport express. What can I do???

    How can I get my new iMac to see my old Airport Express so I can play my music to a remote speaker?

    Move the Mountain Lion version of Airport Utility to the Trash. Airport Utility is located in the Utilities folder.
    Kappy, you cannot move AirPort Utility in Mountain Lion to the trash in a normal way. Apple will not let you do this.....It is part of the Mountain Lion operating system....and cannot be modified or trashed.
