Using icloud on os 10.6.8

Can I run icloud - at least for email - on my macbook pro with os 10.6.8?  My laptop is not capable of upgrading to lion.  I had a mobile me account and have upgraded to icloud on my ipad and iphone.  But now my me account is disabled on the laptop.  I thought it would continue running as an email account after the June 30 cut off date.  Any help appreciated.

No you can not run iCloud. But you can still use iCloud on your other Apple devices, or even on Windows, and still check your mail that is stored on iCloud with your present OS X version. You just don't have the full iCloud usability Only for sending and checking mail.

Good Luck.

  • Can I use iCloud on two Windows 7 PC's? (same apple ID)

    Hi!
    I am a new user of Apple products and would like to use iCloud on two Windows PC's to upload Pictures and be able to see them on iPad. I manage to setup one computer and upload a few pictures for test and it worked, however when I setup computer number 2, nothing happens after I put the pictures on the required location to upload.
    Please let me know if this is feasible and if is not, what do I need to do to enable computer number 2 as the one to use and disable using computer 1 (the one working so far)
    Regards

    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 your iCloud ID on your PC.

    I have an iPad2 and a new MacBook running Mountain Lion. Both Devices use the same Apple ID which is a Hotmail eMail id. Can I create a new iCloud eMail Id and use iCloud eMail and continue to use my current Hotmail Id for my Apple Id for iTunes, iCloud.
    Note, I will use both Hotmail and iCloud eMail.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")

  • Can I use iCloud storage for iOS apps?

    Hello,
    I'm trying to work out if it's possible to use iCloud to save/load data across devices with iOS apps created using Air.
    I know there is a lot of talk about now meeting the Apple data storage guidelines eg http://www.saumitrabhave.com/2011/11/air-ios-solving-apps-must-follow-ios.html
    What I can't understand is if I actually want to use iCloud to save data a user has created in my app (ie condition 1 of the storage guidelines - user generated data, cannot be re-created by application).
    If I was to save this user data to the <Application>/Documents directory...
    a) would it be backed up by iCloud and meet Apples requirements?
    b) if my application was installed on another device is there any way, using Air/AS3, to know that a file has been updated and read the file?
    Please let me know if this doesn't make sense... still trying to get my head around how it all works.
    Thanks.

  • How can I use iCloud-keychain if i can not find my country in the country code list?

    How can I use iCloud-keychain if i can not find my country in the country code list?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    If your country code does not appear in the list…
    Go to System Preferences > iCloud > Keychain and enter your Apple ID password (Settings > iCloud > Keychain, from a mobile device)
    Select the ‘Create Different Code’ option. (Mobile devices only)
    Select the advanced option and choose whether to create a random code or no code, selecting the later allows syncing across devices but not with Apple’s servers.

  • Unable to use iCloud on my iPhone 4S

    I'm unable to use iCloud on my iPhone 4S.  I click on Settings, Scroll to iCloud, Click on iCloud, and then it prompts me to enter my Apple ID and Password.  After I do I click on Sign in and it says User name or password is incorrect and I know they're not.  I try signing in with the same Apple ID and Password and I have no problem signing in.  I don't know what's going on.  Can someone please help?? 

    You need an Internet connection to use Facetime. As not all carriers support Facetime you may need a WiFi connection.

  • How can I use icloud email aliases on windows 7

    Hello,
    Is there any way I can use my icloud email aliases on a windows 7 machine other than icloud.com?  I've tried outlook, but it won't allow me to send from my aliases and icloud.com is so slow it's maddening.  I've searched online and haven't come up with anything so I'm doubtful that there is a solution but would be so happy if there was.
    Many thanks.

    Any have some inspiration to share on this one?

  • How do I use iCloud for non-iCloud apps

    I have a password manager app on both my iPhone 4S and iPad2. According to the description in the App Store and the About/Settings/Help section of the app, I can use iCloud to sync between the two, meaning that what I put on one will show up on the other as long as my log-in code is the same for both (it is). However, this has yet to happen. I have added a few passwords to my iPad and they're not on my iPhone. I've even turned on Documents and Data in the iCloud section of Settings. Is there anything else I can do to make this work or is the claim a lie?

    You may have to go into the settings within the app itself to enable iCloud syncing.  If that's not it, you'll probably have to ask the app developer what the issue is.

  • How do I use iCloud to collaborate on a GarageBand project with a remotely located musician?

    How do I use iCloud to collaborate on a GarageBand project with a remotely located musician?  He is in Valencia, Spain, I am in Green Bay, Wisconsin.  We'd like to be able to work on the same GarageBand document together, laying down tracks, etc.
    Is there a tutorial I should look at?

    Are you using GarageBand on a Mac or on an iPad?
    With iCloud you can store your GarageBand projects in iCloud, so you can work on the same project on all your iPads, iPods, iPhones, and transfer it from your iDevices to your Mac.  But you cannot use iCloud to share a project between people with different AppleIDs.  
    To send GarageBand projects back and forth, compress the the ":band" files and mail them, if they are small enough or put them in a Dropbox or other cloud storage and mail the link.

  • Can I download music to my iPhone directly from my computer- WITHOUT using iCloud?

    Does anyone know how to download music from iTunes on your computer onto your phone without using iCloud?  It used to be that I would just plug in my phone, hit sync, and all the music I wanted (which I had selected in iTunes on my computer) would be added to my phone's music library.  Easy peasy.  Now, none of the music actually gets downloaded to the phone- if I'm connected to wi-fi, I can access all those selected songs through the cloud, but if I'm not, then the songs are grayed out in my playlists.  Each song has a little cloud icon next to it, and I can download the songs by tapping that… one at a time.  I talked to Apple support and they told me to go into the iTunes store app and select "download all," which I did try, but given the quantity of songs I have, and the rate at which things were going, it would have taken forever to get them all downloaded.  I have thousands of songs I like to have on my phone, and the point is to be able to listen to them in places without wi-fi (like my car, or on a hike, or an airplane); it is SUPER annoying that I can no longer quickly download all of those songs by simply connecting my phone to my computer.  I have searched high and low in these forums and I can't seem to find a solution; I would really appreciate any help anyone can offer. 
    Some details:  I have an iPhone 6, and I use iTunes on my Mac, and all of my software on both is up to date.  I do not subscribe to iTunes Match, so turning that off (as has been recommended elsewhere) is not helpful to me. 

    Thanks, but I should have clarified:  I already have USB syncing set up with iTunes on my Mac and have been adding music to my iPhone for years that way; now with the latest IOS, it no longer appears to be working.  I follow the exact steps I always have (and which are outlined in the link provided), but no actual music is downloaded to my phone- if I am not connected to a wi-fi network, I cannot listen to my music unless I download it from iCloud.  (And downloading it from iCloud is a laborious task because I have many songs.)

    I can't sign in to iCloud. My Apple ID is valid, but is not valid for iCloud. How do I get to use iCloud?

    You are getting this message because you are trying to create an iCloud account on a PC by signing with your Apple ID.  You can only sign into an existing account on a PC.  You first have to 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.
