TS4009 i have a game stored on icloud that i cannot access due to lack of space on my ipad.  can i play it in icloud or must i download it on to my ipad first

due to shortage of space I uploaded my favourite game from my ipad storage on to icloud storage.  Is it possible to play the game whilst in the icloud storage or do I have to download it back on to my ipad which will require me deleting some of the other games that I have on there to make enough room for it. Thanks

You have to download it first, iCloud is a sync/storage system and not a server like a network server.
Backup your iPad then delete what you can, so you have material available if you need it later.

  • My IPad shows my old iTunes login for ICloud. I cannot remember the old password - is there a way I can retrieve it or reset ICloud login without it ?

    I updated my ITunes ID and password, but my IPad2 keeps prompting me to backup on ICloud with the former ID/password.  Support says to delete the current ICloud account, but I am prompted for the former password to do this. I cannot remember the former password nor find a way to retrieve it. How do I either change the ICloud login ID prompt or retrieve the former ID password ?

    Hello alljnii,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with your iPad 2.  I recommend resetting the password for your old Apple ID to resolve this issue.
    You can reset a forgotten Apple ID or iCloud password by going to the following link:
    Apple - iForgot
    https://iforgot.apple.com
    If you have a rescue email setup for your Apple ID, the reset password email will be sent there and not your Apple ID email address:
    When you provide a rescue email address, all future security emails, such as password resets from iForgot, will be sent to the address provided.

  • I have a redundant apple store account that I cannot access and need to change

    Good morning,
    Until about 9 months ago I had an account with claranet and that was used to access the apple store via my Iphone, however, for many reasons, it became untennabble and I switched to mobileme. The issue is that when I try to access the Itunes Store and update my apps it always wants to use the claranet account - which no longer exists.  I have tried to get rid of it and synch to mobile me but without any success. Can anyone help?
    Uncle H

    Apps are linked to your iTunes account, you cannot change apps to a new account.
    So when ever you want to update those apps bought with the old account you will have to use the old accounts log in.
    The only way to stop this is to re-purchase the apps from the new account.
    You can however change the email and personal details of an iTunes account.
    So I am not sure why you created a second itunes account?
    You really don't ever need to change your account, only the details.

  • Just set-up my first IPad (Air) using ICloud.  This resulted in none of my desktop Outlook icons working.  Can anyone tell me how ICloud works and restore functional Outlook icons on my desktop.

  • I need to change my iCloud email address.  I changed it for my Apple id but I can't log out of iCloud to change it there.  Find my iPad is activated so I can't delete my iCloud account.  I don't have the email address the iCloud login has anymore.

    I need to change my iCloud email address.  I changed it for my Apple id but I can't log out of iCloud to change it there.  Find my iPad is activated so I can't delete my iCloud account.  I don't have the email address the iCloud login has anymore so I can't have the password sent there.  To sum it up, iCloud has an old email for the account log-in.  I don't remember the password for the old email.  I have Find My iPad activated so the iCloud account cannot be deleted.  And I am already logged out of iTunes & App Store. 

    If you mean that Find My Phone is asking for a password to a different Apple ID to your current Apple IDand that ID is a previous version of your current ID, not an entirely different one.
    This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
    However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details and some other circumstances.
    The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID using your current password, you don’t need access to this address if it’s previously been used with your Apple ID, once you have saved these details enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone" and delete the account from your device. It may take a short while to remove the account.
    You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, save it once again and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.

    Have you tried a soft-reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

    If the free disk space on your Mac is too small to backup and your iPhone then it has too little free space to run properly.
    You need to start doing some removal of data to free up space on the disk drive. The data can be either deleted or moved to another disk drive. what ever you do leave the system files alone and work with the files in your Home directory only.
    The first thin you need to do is to make sure you have a backup of the Mac first.

  • Where can I email apple support regarding an icloud email I cannot access?

    Where can I email apple support regarding an icloud email I cannot access? I don't live in any of the countries that Apple has stores and the website is anything but useful.

    You can only contact Support if you have AppleCare - this runs for 90 days from purchasing a hardware item, or it can be extended at a cost during that time. The contact start point is
    http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/
    You will need your hardware serial number. If you don't have AppleCare it appears there is no direct Support, only the Help pages indexed in the sidebar of that page.

  • My iPad will not let me download an iTunes movie due to lack of space but I purchased more space and it still won't work

    My iPad will not let me download an iTunes movie due to lack of space but I purchased more space and it still won't work

    As stated above - purchasing more space in iCloud has nothing to do with this. You do not have enough space left on the iPad for the movie to download, you need to delete content on the device itself.
    You may want to transfer purchases to iTunes and then delete some content on the device to make room.
    Transfer purchases.

    This article explains how to delete content from the device
    http://knowledgebase.pearsonschool.com/kmp/public_kbase.php?action=showEntry&dat a=4408
    Do not delete any important content without backing up, transferring purchases or transferring files to your computer.

    Wow, Karan Taneja, you've just embarrassed yourself on a worldwide support forum.  Not only is your post ridiculous and completely inappropriate for a technical support forum, but it also shows your ignorance as to whom you think the audience is.  Apple is not here.  It's users, like you. 
    If you would have spent half the time actually reading the Terms of Use of this forum that YOU agreed to by signing up to post, as you did composing that usesless, inappropriate post, you (and the rest of us on this forum) would have been much better off.

  • I have a new Apple TV which is working fine except that I cannot access .mov files which are in my iTunes Library. How can I get to these? I can run them on my computer and select Apple TV on the screen, but the Apple TV goes to a black screen

    Mov is a container format, you'd need to look at the codec used by the movie file inside the container to know whether it will work with the Apple TV or not.

    Once you have obtained an external drive and connected it you will 'clone' your internal drive to it.
    Download Carbon Copy Cloner (it is not free but there is a fully functional trial version which is). Use it to clone your internal drive to your external drive. When that is done you will reboot from the clone and use Disk Utility to erase the internal drive (choose Mac OS Extended (Journaled)) as the format (this is normally preset, but check). Make sure to give the external drive a 'distinctive' name, don't want to get drives mixed up in this process.
    Once that is done you will use Carbon Copy Cloner (from the clone) to restore the external to the internal.
