What I can and can't back up to icloud on my PC

I'm not sure if this is the right place but thought i'd start here.
I think, from what I can see from others posts, you can only back up music purchased through itunes to icloud, is this correct?
Can you back up documents through itunes / icloud?
I would like to get an ipad, yet my normal computer is a PC laptop.  If I back up to icloud will i only see purchased music and pictures on the ipad? I know you can't plug external devices such as USB's or hard drives into an ipad so is there any other way of getting everything that's on the laptop, visible on the ipad (mainly as I want to stop using the laptop).
Thanks in advance

ahahaaa....found it. On the start up page to the left is a list of programs on Windows.
Click onto all programs....then icloud and up pops calender, contacts,find my phone,icloud ,photo stream etc.Click onto any of those and boom boom your in.
I tried to access icloud by opening it up on the start up page then hitting icloud help and then find my phone and it always turns to the grey screen and the search engine going no where.

  • I bought the Keynote app for my MacBook, but when I open the application and try to install it, I get an error message saying that the application will not work with my MacBook. What gives? And, can I please request a refund? ($19.99 = a week's groceries)

    I bought the Keynote app for my MacBook, but when I open the application and try to install it, I get an error message saying that the application will not work with my MacBook. What gives? And, can I please request a refund? ($19.99 = a week's groceries).
    Thank you for your help! - I did try looking for all available specs about Keynote on the Apple iTunes website, and found nothing that could help me. HELP!

    1
    Close all iWork applications
    2
    Uninstall Keynote; this must be done with an application remover tool to delete the installation properly. Appcleaner is known to work correctly for this purpose, it is free and can be downloaded from here: Appcleaner Download
    3
    empty the trash
    4
    shutdown the Mac and restart. After the start up chime, hold down the shift key until the apple logo appears
    let the Mac complete the start up procedure completely, it will take longer than usual as the hard drive is being repaired
    5
    Reinstall Keynote by logging into the Mac App Store using download / install

    If a user account is deleted and the data for that account is not deleted, it is placed there. Yes, you can delete the files there.

    HI ..
    Open a Finder window.
    Select your user account on the left in the Sidebar. It has a small house icon.
    Now open the Library folder then the Preferences folder.
    Move the com.apple.systemuiserver.plist file from the Preferences folder to the Trash.
    Restart your Mac.

    Just to be clear, are you saying that your music is no longer found in iTunes? Regarding whatsapp, from what I have read in the forum, it is temporarily not available at this time.

    Those are outdated iPod software updaters which can be safely deleted.

  • What cannot be and can be deployed in sharepoint sandbox solution

    what cannot be and can be deployed in sharepoint sandbox solution

    Hi,
    Sandboxed Solution Limitations
    When a sandboxed solution is deployed, the array of SharePoint functionality available to it is limited to help reduce any security vulnerabilities it may have. Some of these limitations include the following:
    Sandboxed solutions have a restricted subset of deployable solution elements available to them. Potentially vulnerable SharePoint project templates, such as site definitions and workflows, are not available.
    SharePoint runs sandboxed solution code in a process (SPUCWorkerProcess.exe) separate from the main IIS application pool (w3wp.exe) process.
    Mapped folders cannot be added to the project.
    Types in the Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010 assembly Microsoft.Office.Server cannot be used in sandboxed solutions. Also, only types in the Microsoft SharePoint Foundation 2010 assembly Microsoft.SharePoint can be used in sandboxed solutions.
    It is important to note that specifying a SharePoint solution as a sandboxed solution has no affect on SharePoint server; it only determines how the SharePoint project is deployed to SharePoint from Visual Studio and what assemblies it binds to. It does not
    affect the generated .wsp file, and the .wsp file has no data that directly correlates to the Sandboxed Solution property.
    Capabilities and Elements in Sandboxed Solutions
    Sandboxed solutions support the following capabilities and elements:
    Content Types/Fields
    Custom actions
    Declarative workflows
    Event receivers
    Feature callouts
    List Definitions
    List Instances
    Module/files
    Navigation
    Onet.xml
    SPItemEventReceiver
    SPListEventReceiver
    SPWebEventReceiver
    Support for all Web Parts that derive from System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebParts.WebPart
    Web Parts
    WebTemplate feature elements (instead of Webtemp.xml)
    Visual Web Parts
    Sandboxed solutions do not support the following capabilities and elements:
    Application Pages
    Custom Action Group
    Farm-scoped features
    HideCustomAction element
    Web Application-scoped features
    Workflows with code

    See Here  >  maclife.com/how_remove_other_data_your_iphone
    Other is usually around 1 GB...
    A  ' Large Other ' usually indicates Corrupt Data...
    First Try a Restore from Backup...
    But... if the Large Other Persists, that is an Indicator of Corrupt Data in the Backup...
    Then a Restore as New is the way to go...

  • HT4859 what if i used the wrong back up from icloud and want to choose another back up after?

    I have just gotten my iphone replaced, and to first start it up it gave me options to rather start as new phone or restore from iCloud.
    I tried iCloud option but it cannot load out my iCloud back up, so the genius told me to just start it as a new phone first and then plug it in to your iTunes.
    but I've been relying on iCloud to back up everything, so I haven't backed up to iTunes since august, now I've lost everything since August.
    I can still see the back up on iCloud Manage and Back up but how do I restore it from there?
    Please help!

    Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > Manage Storage :
    Then, delete the backup.
    After that to save new ones, turn the iCloud Backup ON.

  • HT204053 If i have safari os x 10.6.8 on my imac 27" and want to back up to icloud should i upgrade

    If i have safari os x 10.6.8 on my imac 27" and want to back up to icloud should i upgrade to os x lion?  is there a reason not to do this on my mac?

    Can you:
    Upgrading to Mavericks
    You can upgrade to Mavericks from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mavericks can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for FREE.
    Upgrading to Mavericks
    To upgrade to Mavericks you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Download Mavericks from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mavericks is free. The file is quite large, over 5 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
        OS X Mavericks- System Requirements
          Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mavericks
             1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 7,1 or later
             2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 5,1 or later
             3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 2,1 or later
             5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             7. Xserve (Early 2009) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
    To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
         Are my applications compatible?
             See App Compatibility Table - RoaringApps.
    Should you upgrade is your decision. If you don't need the advanced features of Mavericks, then there is no reason to upgrade. If you don't use applications that require Mavericks to upgrade, then you don't need to upgrade.
    Note that beyond Snow Leopard you won't be able to run PPC-only applications such as Office 2004.

  • HT201317 i lost my iphone and had it backed up to icloud and photo stream but i never plugged it into a computer since i had set up photo stream. is there a way to login to any mac device to view my photos or anything?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Yes you should be able to log into iCloud on a Mac from system preferences > iCloud and set up photostream to download any photos that are there. You should also be able to use your iCloud back up to restore any replacement phone to reflect the phone you lost.

  • Have a Friends and Family plan. I have unlimited data and want to keep it. Questions on what I can and can not do with account changes.

    Ok,
    So I am on Friends and Family 2000minutes and unlimited Text.
    4 phones.
    My phone has Unlimited Data and Hotspot
    Other 3 do not have any data.
    I am curious what I can do and can't do that will keep keep the plan as is and not force things to share everything.
    I am allowed to have 5 phones under this plan. I am curious about adding and deleting phones.
    I did try and add a 5th phone. When I tried to activate a 5th phone online it would not let me do it. Tried to get me to change plans.
    Here are a few scenarios that I see coming up in the future.
    I would like to add a 5th phone. My father has an account and I would like to roll him into my plan instead of his own account. I have already done this once before many years ago with no problem with 2 of the lines that I currently have. Is this possible or is that enough to trigger the move share everything scenario.
    Second. how about removing a line from my plan?
    One of my numbers is for an 18YO that wants to be more independent and have their own account. Can I down the road either transfer that line and number to its own account which would be share everything (I do understand that). Or can I delete that line from the account without triggering the share everything scenario?
    Also it seems when I look online I can change data plans currently three phones are on data block. Can I actually change them to a data plan within the Friends and family or is the Share everything scenario triggered. What about if I change them to a smart phone from their basic/feature phone. I know I can't get unlimited data but can I still get them on my friends and family tiered data plan?
    What is up.
    Thank You

    yes to everything; you can add a line (up to 5 total for Family Share), drop a line, upgrade a basic line to a smartphone (and then add a tiered data plan) and stay on your current calling plan ... it may be easier done in your local Corporate Verizon store, though ... just be sure they don't try to switch you to Share Everything if that's not what you want

  • What is MyPhotobook and can I safely uninstall it?

    Hi,
    I did a search for this program and from what I can see it allows you to make a real book from your favourite books, as I don't intend to do this is it safe to uninstall it to free up more space on my hard drive for programs I do want? Don't want to uninstall it if by any chance it's connected to something else that is necessary but can find very little information on exactly what it is and how it's linked to other programs if it is.
    Can anybody help me?
    Debbie

    Thanks for that Ivan as I rarely uninstall pre-installed programs for fear it will be connected to something else but from what I could see that is pretty useless program unless you have lots of money and want to make family or friends photo albums.
