What Happens to Mail on Leopard After Move to iCloud?

Hi,
I just ran the Lion update on my MacBook Air, which I use mostly for traveling, and am thinking of activating iCloud. The MacBook I use at home, however, is a few years old and only runs Leopard ... what will happen to my Mail programme after I move to the cloud? Will mail still be delivered and show up without me having to visit the iCloud website?
I am hoping to buy a new iMac soon, so I don't want to upgrade from Leopard to Lion on my old MacBook.
Thanks a lot!
All the best,
Jana

Ok, so I just took the risk and moved to iCloud on my MacBook Air and the Mail programme on my old MacBook thankfully still seems to operate without any problems.

HT4707 what happens to Keychain data when I move to iCloud?

what happens to Keychain data when I move to iCloud? Can I still access Keychain passwords?

Thanks Carolyn,
And yes. Keychain does still work.
But why-oh-why do Apple have to give contradictory information yet again in the sign up process? It seems they just want to cover their arses so much that they would rather give out misleading information, that something might go wrong, just in case it does, than tell us everything will be OK & then if we lose data, we, (Americans with a penchant for litigation), are automatically going to sue thier bollocks off.
This happens so many times with pop-up warnings. I'm running two macs & an iphone and I very nearly didn't go for Lion & icloud and seriously considered going back to Windows. Only a chance conversation in an Apple store stopped me and made me persevere through the warnings.
Cheers,
Steve

What happened to ADOBE workspaces files after being downloaded before retirement?

What happened to ADOBE workspaces files after being downloaded before retirement?

I had this problem as well! I was working on one of several projects I had, I'm pretty sure they were saved on the computer, my computer started to chug, I reset it, and they ALL disappeared! I can't find any of the files anywhere on the hard drive, but I also can't sign into the cloud to see if they somehow got moved. I reset again, and still nothing.
When I try to log into the cloud it tells me the sync failed. Since I only just signed up for the subscription I don't know if it's common for it to go down, or what.

What happened to our web services after upgrading to 701?

Hi,
We started using web services on a 700 server. Looks something like this.
SAP_ABA     700     0018     SAPKA70018     Cross-Application Component
SAP_BASIS     700     0018     SAPKB70018     SAP Basis Component
PI_BASIS     2005_1_700     0018     SAPKIPYJ7I     PI_BASIS 2005_1_700
We could create a proxy in vb.net and call our SAP web services like this:
        Dim ws As New sapserver.webservice1
        Dim input As New sapserver.ZGetuname
        Dim output As New sapserver.ZGetunameResponse
        out2 = ws.ZGetuname(input)
After upgrading to nw ep 7.1, which looks like this.
SAP_ABA     701     0007     SAPKA70107     Cross-Application Component
SAP_BASIS     701     0007     SAPKB70107     SAP Basis Component
PI_BASIS     701     0007     SAPK-70107INPIBASIS     Basis Plug-In
We no longer get the same input and ouput classes generated for us when consuming the service. It looks like it is now expected to be called like a function    ws.ZGetuname( param 1, param 2).
We would like to be able to generate the proxy the same way as before. Any ideas?
Thanks.

What happened to the file numbers after switching to Photos. It would be nice to still have the file numbers show.
You mean, the filename with the number on the card?
Photos does not use the filenames as a title, when displaying the thumbnails. The filename will only show in the Info panel.
Copy the filenames to the title field in the Info panel and then enable "Metadata" in the View menu.
I wrote a script to copy the filenames automatically to the title field, see:

What happens to migrated idisk files after June 30th.

what happens to migrated idisk files after June 30th?

Just to be clear, there are no 'migrated files'. If you migrate, the iDisk remains untouched and accessible exactly as before (though you may need to sign in at System Preferences>MobileMe again). Whether or not you migrate, the iDisk will be teminated at the end of June and its contents erased.
iCloud does not provide any equivalent facility, so you will need to find a third-party solution. This page examines some options:

What happens to my websites created in iWeb when iCloud replaces IWeb (Rumoured)?...

What happens to my websites created in iWeb when iCloud replaces IWeb as is rumoured... they will be lost?

To tell you te truth We should should've all expected this...
With no new updates to iWeb in a good couple of years, even though it's an amazing piece of software enjoyed by million. It upsets me no end to see apple continually doing this and what have they done exactly? Left goodness knows how many customers worried and uncertain about a product they love and rely on, I do anyway.
One of the main reasons I have a Mac isn't only the build quality and the OS, although that does have a fair amount to do with it. The main reason for me moving to Apple and investing in a machine all those years ago was iWeb, being a creative control freak, I love to be able to get out my Mac, open iWeb and in minutes create a new launch page for a new mix, upgrade some of my services a customers asked for, recreate any aspect of how I present myself to people at a click of a button... I know you can upload to FTP server but phooey, why damage a good thing.
This as annoyed me no end... so I'll not doubt I'll be taking it out on an Apple employee tomorrow when I take back my blown power pack for my MacBook pro, my third one in 8 months... I sign of the way apple is going?
PS as for iOS 5 ... Seriously underwhelmed, we've been given features 90% of which should have been launched in iOS3!.. Oh, although I can't handle windows anymore, have you see. The new Windows 8 layer? Watch out Apple, he's behind you

HT4898 How can I continue sync my various Mail Accounts when I move to iCloud?

How can I continue sync my various Mail Accounts when I move to iCloud?

I wasn't aware that you could sync other mail accounts with MobileMe, other than their settings. If you are referring to settings, then they should already be set up on your mobile device, any new accounts would need to be added manually.
POP accounts will continue to receive and send e-mail but will not sync (so for example if you delete an e-mail on one device it won't be deleted on the other), IMAP/exchange accounts will continue to function as they always have.

What happens to my photos if i delete my icloud backup?

what happens to my photos if i delete my icloud backup?

Nothing. Deleting the backup only deletes the backup. It doesn't delete anything else from iCloud or from your devices/computers.

What happened to mail sent sent from keepers to inbox?

I sent mail from the keepers box to the inbox and it did not transfer. What happened to it? Can I retrieve it?

To what system are you referring? There is nothing on my iPhone called a "keepers box". Is English not your native language? If it isn't, try reposting in the language in which you're most comfortable.
The only thing I can think of is you mean the "Saved" or "Sent" folders in Mail.
Best of luck.

What happens to the original photo after editing? Does it get replaced by the edited photo?

I just bought my first iPhone(5). On Android, when editing a photo, the original stays in your gallery and the edited photo gets placed right next to it. So what I want to know is, When editing a photo in the photo app, what happens to the original since it would be nice to be able to make different edits of it.

That is an excellent question. This is definitely not the programmed behavior of Photoshop Elements. Normally, when you edit a file, a new copy of the file is created (the original is simply left alone). This new copy of the file will have "_edited-1" added to the end of the name. It should definitely not be adding $ to the name at all.
Just as a test, create a new user account on your computer, and try editing another image to see if does the same thing there. However, I suspect there is another application on your computer that is modifying how files are saved, deleted, and renamed.

What happened to my login page after display sleep?

I'm not sure what happened but whenever my display goes to sleep and I click the trackpad to turn it back on, a dialog box shows up asking for my password. Prior to two days ago, when I woke the display the login screen would pop up with my user icon (just like the initial login screen, but without Guest), but now it's just the dialog box with a black screen. Anyone have any idea how this happened, or how to get it back to the way it was? I'm running OSX 10.8.4.

Okay. I am still convinced a firmware password. Safe mode wouldn't be a surefire test of this, I was wrong...this would be a test for open firmware password (applicable to machine up to 2010), not EFI password (2011 +). Try Booting into Recovery Mode (command + R) or hold down option at start and select the recovery partition. Are you prompted for a password? If so, there is a fimrware password set and only Apple would be able to unlock your machine. If not, I am out of suggestions. Please test and reply. Thanks.

HT204053 what if I don't want to move to icloud?

What alternatives do I have to keep my .me ID and not move to icloud?

The section Julian quoted is a little misleading (Apple's fault, not Julian's): elsewhere on the same page they say that people with older systems can check their mail at http://icloud.com . However it is possible to migrate and access Mail on Leopard by setting Mail up manually:
Entering iCloud email settings manually in Snow Leopard or Leopard
You should go to http://me.com/move and take the 'email only' option. Your email will be moved to the iCloud server, but not until 1 July. On that date you should carry out the process in the link above.
If you do not migrate you will lose the account, and all emails stored on it will be deleted: messages to it will bounce.

Still problems with Apple id and emails after move to iCloud

Hi,
After move from MobileMe to iCloud, there are still problems with apple id's and emails.
I'm trying to delete a mail (email1) from one apple id, but nothing happens?
And when i'm trying to add a email (email2), that i Know isn't linked to another apple id, i get the message that it is already in use with another apple id?
It's a problem when you use these emails with facetime, imessage etc ...

My iPhone 5 and 4 both are having no trouble connecting to the Apple store, but my iPad (4th Gen) cannot either connect to Apple store, nor stream music using iTunes Radio. Keeps asking for my Apple ID and password. When I put it in, it says that I cannot connect. If I put it in wrong, it tells me its wrong. Tried changing my password on my desktop PC. The iPhones handled change and continued to connect, but iPad is unable to connect still.
Any solutions would be appreciated.
