TS3988 Unable to turn on iCloud with new laptop

Can someone point me in the right direction?
I cannot turn on iCloud in iTunes because the iTunes > Preferences > Store > "Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases" does not appear.
I have an iCloud account, my laptop is new, with OS 10.8.4, and iTunes 11.0.4 (4).
Thanks

To see your purchased list, make sure you are signed into the iTunes store with your Apple ID (Store>Sign In), then click on the iTunes store, click on "Purchased" under Quick Links on the right side bar, then choose the category you want to view at the top.

Unable to sign into itunes with new laptop

Just had my laptop updated to Win 7 Ultimate. Downloaded iTunes. Now it won't let me sign in.
Says iTunes store unavalible at this time try again later. I am able to sign into Apple.
Already did the Command Prompt for "winsock reset".
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Same here, but with Mavericks download. Tried a few hours ago, and a no go then or now (2:20 PM EDT USA). Left a message on MacRumor but don't expect any assistance but if lucky, I'll return here to post.

Turn on icloud with my ipad, it spams my network with old meeting requests (2009). what gives?

turn on icloud with my ipad, it spams my network with old meeting requests (2009). what gives?

This happened to me (twice) when iCloud first came out -- and I have steered clear of iCloud ever since. But I just recently upgraded to Mavericks, and they took local sync away!! Anyone still having this issue with iCloud?? I will not send accepted messages for old meetings three times!

You are getting this message because you are trying to create an iCloud account on a PC. You can only create iCloud account on an iOS device (iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch) running iOS 5 or higher, or on a Mac running OS X Lion (10.7.5) or higher. After creating your account on one of these devices you will then be able to sign into the account using this ID on your PC.

I ca not install Itunes 10.5 on vista or windows 7 my iPhone 4 is much slower and freezes and also certain apps and also certain features will not work on the phone now that I cannot update it to ios5. When I go to the store they turn me away with my laptops and tell me to buy there computer that's the only answer. I know there has to be away around it? I am also up for a new upgrade on my second phone line and was going to get a 4s but now I am thinking it may be the wrong choice I am very unhappy with Apple right now...

WOW! That font is difficult to read. But, see if this support document helps you http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3989. Photos stream is based on date and photos more than 30 days old are removed. Photostream is designed as a temporary storage to allow you to download the photos to the computer.

Just set up icloud with new apple id, can I still access old photostream?

I recently set up a new apple id using my gmail, had been using my aol email previously. After signing into icloud with the new apple id, obviously my photostream that existed under my old apple id is now gone. Is there a way I can still access the photostream from my old apple id or are those pics now lost?

Photo stream photos older than 30 days are gone unless they have already been downloaded to another device or computer. However, if they were still in your camera roll when you last backed up, restoring the backup to your phone should recover them.

Selective use of iCloud with multiple laptops, multiple iPods and iOS devices?

I haven't brought my MBP13 to Lion yet. I do have an MBA that runs Lion.   I have hesitated to take the MBP to Lion and set up iCloud because I just don't understand what the options are for selective "sync" of various sorts of data among one or more Macs, their iPods and iOS devices.   The material I can find so far does not in any way make it clear to me in advance what sort of selectivity will be offered if I turn on iCloud.
Aside from that my DSL connection does not offer a stellar download rate, and I live in a dead zone for cellular signals, so I do not operate in an "always on" state.   I turn on my laptop's WiFi or plug in an ethernet cable a few times a day and similarly might turn on a mobile device a few times.   Past that, I'm offline. I've lived like that with my Apple gear for 30 years and that's just how it is for people in rural areas of the USA.
All or most of my so-called "syncs" are the manual sort. I pick out what info I want on any device and drag it there after connecting the devices. If something I want on a mobile device can't be dragged there, or the alternative dread "sync" doesn't offer enough selectivity, I just settle for not having whatever that item is on whatever that device is, assuming I can't figure out a way to hammer the system into letting me get it on there (like temporarily adding movies to my main library from a separate library and external drive, then drag to the iPad, then eject the iPad and delete the movie listings from the main library to reduce the clutter again).
So.    I don't keep ALL of my various types of data (mail, music, movies, notes, PDF files, app data) on ANY of my devices. I couldn't make them fit, and I wouldn't want them all on everything anyway.    I don't always even keep any mail setups on a particular mobile device. I might have one there for a particular time frame, say over a weekend, and then disable or delete it.   That works fine for me. I shudder to think what would happen if I had an iCloud setup and did that. I have visions of my entire mail setup on one of my laptops being deleted if I delete it from an iOS device...
Beyond unwanted deletion?   Unwanted addition!   The last thing on earth I would ever want to do is set up iCloud and then find out that it wants to stash hundreds of GB of movies, hundreds of PDFs, thousands of music tracks, etc., on, say, my original iPhone that I still use as a WiFi device and occasionally add a few tracks of music to, or change up its playlists. Not to mention what would happen if it tried to stash all my stuff on some unsuspecting little iPod touch used just for audiobooks.
I am afraid that iCloud will work like the dread "transfer purchases" thing works now. The "transfer purchases" doesn't let me say WHAT purchases to transfer.   There's no way I want a movie I have managed to take from a secondary iTunes library onto an iPad transferred "back" to my iPhone or my MBA or to ANYTHING just because I turn some device I own in order to check the weather.   Maybe I never purchased that movie on the iPad. Just because it's not on the main library any more doesn't mean I want it to be there, either.
So how can find out ahead of time how iCloud is going to work for someone with lots of different types of data on several laptops where all the so-called "syncs" at present are as manual as I have been able to make them?
Or can someone just tell me hey you know what, iCloud is not designed for you, just don't go there.
Either way I'll be grateful for some help here. Sure I can clone my laptops and then back up all the iOS devices and copy those backups to externals, and then turn on iCloud and hammer on my stuff for two days to see what happens. But why should i do that if someone can say up front that iCloud is or is not set up for highly selective sync options?

iCloud does not sync movies or general files, so that problem doesn't arise.
iCloud will:
Sync Calendars
SyncSafari Bookmarks (though not display them on the iCloud website)
Sync Contacts
Sync photos added to or taken on one device onto other devices
Access @me.com email
Sync iWork documents only between your Mac and iOS5 devices - automatically from iOS devices by by dragging individual documents from a Mac to the iCloud website (and the cannot be re-downloaded until they have been edited on an iOS device)
Each of these can be turned on or off on each device; you cannot selectively sync within one data type - i.e. it's all or no Contacts, not a selection, and so on.

" 3 items could not be synced. See iTunes for more information" I have searched and I have tried the solutions on the forum. My iPhone has been successfully synced without error and I am trying to sync with new laptop.

" 3 items could not be synced. See iTunes for more information" I have searched and I have tried the solutions on the forum. My iPhone has been successfully synced previously on my mac mini without error. I am trying to sync my iPhone with new MacBook Pro.

Modular77: With respect the dialog on the iPhone 'XX items could not be synced. See iTunes for more information.' , would you happen to know where to look in iTunes? I looked in all the places that seemed logical to me.
I am, however, asking only for future reverence, as the initial sync which generated the error dialog was done via USB, and almost immediately after the USB sync, I ran a WiFi Sync—two in a row in fact—both initiated from the iPhone. Both WiFi syncs completed successfully with no error dialog.
I then ran another USB sync initiated from iTunes on the Macintosh, as was the first sync which gave the error. This second USB sync also completed successfully with no errors.
I think someone in this thread mentioned non-AppleStore products or DMR issues which I think could not have been an issue in my case, as I was running the sync to install updated Apps from the AppStore, and additionally had deleted some music and movie items to make sure there was room for the App updates. Nothing was added other than the recently downloaded App updates from the AppStore.
iPhone3GS iOS 5.1.1 build 9B206.
          Developer Profile enabled. iCloud enabled.
          32 GB “disk.” About 1.5 GB free after sync.
          iPhone NOT jailbroken
MacBook 13-inch Aluminum, Late 2008 (NOT Macbook Pro)
     Lion 10.4.7 build 11E53. 2 GB RAM.
Thanks for any info or advice. Problem IS now solved, but it absorbed a lot of time to reach that point.

I can't get my ipod to sync with new laptop. I have tried to erase and sync, I have authorized new laptop, and still can't get new songs on ipod. Help

I had to purchase a new laptop, since my old one crased. I downloaded iTunes, and my library came up. I followed the directions given, synced ipod, authorized computer and was given a pop up that stated 25 of my songs could not be transferred.Go to Store, authorize computer and resync. Which I did. When I authorize computer another pop up appears and it states this computer is already authorized. I am getting really frustrated. I have gone to the Apple store several times, had to make appointments as they were to busy to help me then. I show up for appointments to either be told, no appointment appears in their schedule, or they are running over an hour late. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks

Why can't the songs be transferred to the device? Is it because they are not authorized? Were these 25 tracks purchased/downloaded with the same account you have used to authorize the PC/new iTunes library?
Have you seen this article yet?

IPod will not sync with new laptop

Alright everybody, got a tough one here I can't seem to figure out. I have a 3rd generation iPod touch. I had it synced with my now secondary desktop that has my library and everything on it. I am now trying to get my iPod switched over fully to my new primary laptop. I am running iTunes 10.5 and iOS5. The iPod will sync fine with the desktop but when I try and sync and erase with my laptop absolutely no music will transfer over. I can click the device tab on the left and look at music and they are all grayed out as if they are ghost files. Does anybody have any suggestions? For the record I have tried to restore the iPod and set it up as a new iPod on the laptop but the music files still will not sync. I can go back and plug it in to my desktop and everything syncs fine. Thanks in advance.

Is your new computer authorized with the same account? About iTunes Store authorization and deauthorization
Did you try to transfer purchases and back up manually before your sync?
Connecting to a new computer will erase your device during the first sync. But you can use the manual backup to restore from afterwards. Make sure to have at least onwe contact and event listed on that computer as well, syncing to an empty address book will delete contacts and calendars on the ipod.
Also check your restrictions, to make sure app installation is allowed.
