Trying to work in iCloud on my PC (Calendar, Notes, Email etc...) ....but iCloud keeps resetting to the login screen.
Anyone seeing similar behaviour?

To use iCloud, you must first set it up on an iOS device or a Mac.

Leopard: my account works, but does not appear in the login screen

I upgraded to leopard using erase and install. Because I was a FileVault user on Tiger, I could not use the migration assistant, so I just created a new account. As part of the creation, I also changed my userid and groupid to 1000, to match the rest of my NFS network, and I also enabled FileVault.
When the login window appears, my account does not show up. I can click "Other..." and enter my short name and password and it seems that everything is fine. However, I would like my account to appear on the login window. Currently, the only three items are Guest, System User (a admin account that I created), and Other.

The rules determining whether or not an account is visible in the "login window" seem to keep changing with every OS X version - perhaps they changed again in "Leopard". For example, in Tiger, a user with the short name "Admin" was inherently hidden (and to my knowlege couldn't be made visible unless logged in), but this is not the case in Leopard.
I can't test this in Tiger, but on my Leopard system, it seems 1000 is a magic number - uid=999 and 1001 are visible, but 1000 is hidden from the "login window".
Sorry I don't know of a solution - it's all too new at this point so I can't even say if one exists. But thanks for asking an interesting question...

Thanks.
I'll change it now. I just realized it sounds rough, but I was mad because I couldn't get it work, it isn't anyone's fault, sorry
EDIT: I got it to work at an usable state! By using the 8192cu driver on the AUR and the suggestions in the comments about disabling power-save, I got it to be usable. It now has up to 8% packet loss, not 30-40% like before, and the ping spikes are now 300-400 ms and less frequent, not 1000-1200ms. It's not working really well but now I can at least surf the web. Thank you all for the patience.
EDIT 2: after testing more I realized it still disconnects every few seconds when I'm far from the AP. However, when connected, I still have very strong signal. If I use it on windows or another distro it doesn't disconnect. I tried compiling the driver from realtek by myself using the istructions in the second post but I don't know how to fix some compile errors, so I decided I'll stick with my usb dongle. Maybe someone will find a better solution.

Please Help

Your problem is not Boot Camp, in fact, is your optical drive. Win XP requires indeed sp2, but also the internal drive, does not work from external optical drive.
For other possible tricks, please use the appropriate Boot Camp forum, not here. Mac OS X may be installed from both external and internal optical drive and/or internal/external partition of a disk, any disk. Windows is not so generous.

Keep trying to access my Hulu plus Account and it keeps telling me it's not available. It did that yesterday and then the login screen appeared (not sure how it happened) I logged in and it worked. Now today, same unavailable message comes up. Help !!!

Try a Hard Reset.....
Press and hold the Wake / Sleep button AND the Home button at the same time, keep them both pressed until the Apple Logo appears on the screen, it can take 10 or more seconds. Ignore the swipe to turn off message.

I'm trying to log into iCloud on my Windows PC, and it won't budge past the Login Screen. :(

I haven't used my PC to log into iCloud for a while, and now it won't go beyond the Login Screen. Has anyone else had this problem? If so, how do I fix it?

While we all have MacBooks in this forum most of us don’t use iCloud. There's an iCloud Support Community where everybody uses iCloud. You should also post this question there to increase your chances of getting an answer. https://discussions.apple.com/community/icloud/icloud_on_my_mac

HT4759 I wanted to login to iCloud from my ipad to view my calendar. The message was that I needed to set up iCloud on the device but I have and it won't give me the login screen. What am I missing? Thank you.

I'm assuming you are trying to log in using Safari on your ipad - if this is the case, you can't do that on an iOS device. You must use the Calendar app on the device. If you are using someone else's device, then you have a problem doing this. I just tried using Chrome on an iPad and that also doesn't work. If there's on nearby, use a computer's browser, that works.

I'm trying to buy more storage on my iPad but when I get to the "buy" button, it has my old Apple ID and I can't go any farther. I've changed my Apple ID on all my devices, logged out, logged back in, rebooted, etc., but that one area still has old one.

You can't buy more storage on an iPad. You are referring to space on iCloud and that probably won't accomplish what you are trying to do.

I am unable to download updates directly to iPad 2 , now trying to reinstall one from scratch but download keeps stopping and the restarting. Can you offer any advice, this happening when trying to download to laptop in itunes as well. Have tried to download on different broadband lines without success. Is this an apple problem due to high demand or something else?
Everything has worked well until about a month ago, up to date iOS 5 and itunes installed. Tried resetting numerous times, turned off all apps still no joy. Ipad was great but now feeling buying one was mistake. Also recent music purchase was useless and tunes would not play correctly.

Since this is happening on the iPad and the computer, it might be worth a try to reboot your router - unplug it from power for about 30 seconds and then plug it in again.
Quit iTunes on the PC, reboot it and the iPad as well
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons

iPad: Issues connecting to Wi-Fi networks http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3304

Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Change the channel on your wireless router. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

My garage band app has crashed & keeps returning to the main screen when I try to open it... I've tried most of the trouble shooting chart (no updates available, tried restarting app, restarted device) all I have left is to re-install the app... My main fear is that if I do this I will lose a load of recent projects that are saved to the app that I've spent the last few days creating... Help...

I have tried all those things I even updated the software to the new iOS system and it still did fix my problem.
What happened is that my garage band looks like it will open then it shuts down.
I have lot of important things on my garage band and I'm afraid that if I uninstall it deleting it then reinstalling it all my work on it will be gone and I can't have that happen.
Everyday I am hoping that when i go to open the app that is will work but it doesn't it gets ready to turn on then it shuts off , the app doesn't even open all the way and turns off.
I really hope I don't have to erase it.
It'll say it's ,lading my songs then it shuts down .
If I waited for the App Store to come up with an update for garage band should I wait till then to update my app so it doesn't get damaged . I don't want to erase it and all my data get erased . I figured if I wait for an update then my garage band will reset itself but won't delete my data. I'm not sure if that will help. Is there anything you or anyone else might know that can help me with this matter ?
Thank you

Curretly, there is an iCloud blackout. It started this morning around 2AM California time (Pacific), 5AM New York (Eastern). A lot of people have been having issues all day, including me. No iCloud services are online. Even Find My iPhone is down.

Put your install DVD into the optical drive (CD/DVD drive) and reboot. Be sure to either use the disc that came with your Mac, or, if you installed a later Mac OS X version from disc, use the newer disc. As soon as you hear the boot chime, hold down the "c" key on your keyboard (or the Option Key until the Install Disk shows up) until the apple shows up. That will force your MacBook to boot from the install DVD in the optical drive.
When it does start up, you'll see a panel asking you to choose your language. Choose your language and press the Return key on your keyboard once. It will then present you with an Installation window. Completely ignore this window and click on Utilities in the top menu and scroll down to Reset Password. After resetting the password use Startup Disk from the same menu to choose your hard drive for startup and restart.
