Using the iCloud?
Is it possible to free up space on my iPhone by using the iCloud? In my head, it kind of works like a flash drive - is that true? If so, how do I do that?
When you enable Photo Stream on your devices, only new photos you take or import to those devices will be automatically added to your Photo Stream. Existing photos won't.

My kids and I all use the same credit card and password for app and music purchases. I'm assuming we all use the same apple ID too. (not sure) We can share apps and music although we all have our own itunes libraries. Is it possible for only me to use the icloud online storage without making this available or visible to the kids or do we all have our own storage?
I just checked and they have already sucked up all my online storage. Ahhh techy teens! I think I will just leave it at that and back my own stuff up on my computer. Less confusing
Thanks for all the help! I am definitely more educated now and I'm off to check that cc bill too. -
How can I Use the iCloud Control Panel to pick a new folder
I apparently moved or deleted my iCloud folder and keep getting this message Use the iCloud Control Panel to pick a new folder. How do I do this?
I have/had the same problem, just started this morning. I tried a system restore to a known good date. I still had the problem so I rolled restored the system to the latest.
Thinking that it might have something to do with priviliges, I reviewed my user account and noticed it was set to "Administrator". On a whim, I switched my user account from administrator to "standard user" and I'll be... the issue dissapeared. I have no idea why. But I thought I'd pass it along. -

lost my contacts on my phone... how do i use the icloud to restore my contacts on my phone
if they are still stored in iCloud, turn contacts off under settings>iCloud, then turn the back on and elect the merge option. if that doesn't work you may have to remove the account from the device, and sign back in

My wife and I each have an apple ID and share one macbook pro. Is it possible to use the iCloud on our shared macbook pro and our two separate iPhone 5's and not get each others information confused?
Once you setup your wife's account you can enable fast user switching to make it easy to switch accounts:

My icloud account is not verifying it says check my mail witch I have done and I get a message say your iPhone for has been used to set up and Icloud account but still can not use the icloud can anybody help me.
Be sure you are checking the email account that you used to set up the Apple ID you used to create the iCloud account. Also, be sure to check your spam/junk folder as well as your inbox. The email you should receive looks like the image below. When you get it, click the Verify Now link.
If it still isn't there, try going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage your Apple ID, sign in, click on Name, ID and Email addresses on the left, then to the right look for a link to resend the verification email. -
How can I recover an old/disused iCloud account. I was having some issues with my apple id so I restored my iPad, I am now stuck on the activation screen as I no longer use the iCloud account i used to set up the iPad and can't remember the address or pas
I have the same problem - it is maddening. I rely on this iPad for work so this is not just an annoyance! The above solutions of changing the appleid on the device or on the website do not work.
The old email address no longer exists - I haven't used it in a year probably and I no longer have the account. I logged into the appleid website and there is no trace of the old email address so there is nothing that can be deleted or changed there. On the iPad there is no trace of the old email address so nothing can be deleted there either. I have updated the iPad software and the same problem comes right back. Every 2 seconds I am asked to log in using the old non-existent email. The device is currently useless.
The only recent change to anything was the addition of an Apple TV device, which was set up using the correct login and password.
Does anyone have any ideas? The iPad has been backed up to the iCloud so presumably it now won't recognize the current iCloud account? So restoring may notbe an option? -
How do I set up a second Apple ID to use iCloud? My office is going to use the iCloud calendar on our PCs and I don't want to use my personal ID. Thanks for any suggestions.
You really don't want to do that, operate an iPad with 2 different ID's.
I'm presuming you have a work iPad and you want to put some non work bought apps on it. You will have issues, like half the iPad not working while the other half does.
Probably not something you want to explain to your IT department. -
My iPad has been erased. I am not be able to find the prevues owner to use the iCloud account to activate my iPad. If there is a way please help me.
No, there isn't. If possible return it to whomever you purchased it from and get your money back. Otherwise, you have a very expensive paperweight that is of no use to you.

I was using the iCloud for my iPod and had recorded several irreplaceable Voice Memos. It went up to the Cloud, but I wasn't too savvy with the Cloud at that point, so it wasn't syncronizing to my home computer. So, the thing is that the iPod died and the backup is in the Cloud and I would like to load the backup to my iMac to recover my data. How can I do that? Thanks
The new device I got to replace the iTouch is a iPad and I don't see the playlist I created with previous voice memos on it at all. Is there any way to access them on the iPad? If I erase the iPad and restore it with the old back up will the Voice Memos come along and get in to my home computer or will I be out of luck?

Some email images do not show while using the icloud web app. I can see the images on my IOS devices and in gmail but I only see a small gray box in the icloud web mail app. Load HTML images is checked in preferences. Is there a solution to this issue?
I've seen the opposite issue. My wife recieved an email with jpg attachments. She couldn't see or print them on her iPhone 4S but they showed up fine in iCloud or in the mail app. I had her forward the email to herself and then they showed up. I assume there is an issue with how Apple is processing the attachments and resending causes them to get reformatted in a way that makes them easier to handle.
So yeah. Seems like some bugs. Hope Apple fixes them soon. -

When friends use a different name in Facebook, than what the real name is, I told my iPhone to use the name like I entered it for the iCloud contact.
Anytime I connect my iPhone with iTunes it automatically changes back the names to the Facebook ones, and I have to change it again manually for like 50 contacts, that is very very annoying! How can I change it that the iPhone should use the iCloud names for every contact or at least for the one with different Facebook/real names as default?I would use iTunes Home Sharing to share the song you have and she can then add it to her library. Although, it seems as if she has never had a library since the phone was never connected to iTunes. My understanding of using iCloud is that for her to use a song that isn't in iTunes, you have to use iTunes Match, and there is a cost involved in this. If her phone was synced to her own iTunes library on a computer, you could use the Home Sharing as I indicated earlier.
