Documents created on my iPhone or iPad go into iCloud with no problem. Why can't I get the documents created on my MacBook Pro to go into iCloud?

Documents created on my iPhone or iPad go into iCloud with no problem and I can then access those documents from any of my "toys". However, documents created on my MacBook Pro do not go into iCloud, and as such, they are not accessable from my iPhone or iPad. How can I get the documents created on my MacBook Pro to go into the cloud?

Reset iCloud sync state
On Mac:
Close open applications
Open a Finder window
Choose “Go to Folder…” from the “Go” menu
Enter “~/Library/Application Support/”
Find the folder named “Ubiquity” and move it to the Trash
Restart your computer

Have I actually installed firefox program/start page or have installes something else?

Why can't I get a Mac created/iPad edited Pages document to appear in iTunes when using "send to iTunes" command in Pages on my iPad

This morning I updated to iTunes 10.4. and also updated Pages on my MacBook (SL 10.6.8) to version 4.1. My iDevices are all recognized in iTunes and all is going fine except for this one thing. I created a Pages document on my Mac and I sent it to my iPad using file sharing with iTunes. I edited and finished the document on the iPad and then used the "send to iTunes" feature and prepared to sync back to my Mac. The document appears to transfer over - and I have tried sending it over again and again - but it never appears in the file sharing Pages documents window after I sync. When I try to send it from the iPad again, the device tells me that the document already exists and asks if I want to replace it, so it must be transferring somehow but I don't see it in the window.
This only started after I updated both applications. I've been using Pages and file sharing without any issues at all until now. The really ironic thing is that I can create a Word document on my Mac, send it to the iPad, edit it there and send it back to iTunes and it appears in the window like you would expect - but my Pages documents do not. Word documents work fine but not Pages documents? Documents created on the iPad seem to be going back and forth fine but not Mac created files.
I've tried everything I can think of, restarting disconnecting the iPad reconnecting the iPad, hard reset .... Any ideas? Is there something that I am missing? Anybody else experience this?

Just thought I'd add my solution, I decided to go with WebDAV and I think it actually works better than the iTunes way, the steps are pretty much the same but avoiding the iTunes interface just makes things easier and faster.
I followed this guide but it does have a small mistake in the httpd-dav.conf file, on line 2, where it's WebServer/WebDAV">, it should be <Directory "/Library/WebServer/WebDAV">.
The tricky part is setting permissions which if wrong will give you errors when connecting with the iPad, I opted to set all to Read&Write since my home network has a hardware firewall. Another convenience was to add an alias to the webdav share on the Desktop.
I'm still expecting the call from Apple but even if they fix the iTunes I'm sticking with WebDAV, atleast until I see what's new with iOS5 and iCloud this fall which should bring true sync for documents (I'm hoping that they will offer encryption with my own keys, if not, then I'll probably keep using WebDAV).

Using icloud, why can't i share a document created on my mac, and while out of town, access the document on my macbook pro. icloud should do this.

I create a document at home on my mac.
while out of town on a trip and using icloud and my macbook pro, I should be able to access this document.
If not, what good is icloud.

'Documents in the Cloud' enables you to manually upload iWork '09 documents (only) to the iCloud webpage: from there is will automatically be downloaded to iOS5 devices, but you cannot re-download it to your Mac oir to another Mac until it's been edited on an iOS device, so it's not really suitable for what you want, and you cannot do it at all with other types of file.
You will need a third-party solution. SugarySync would be my recommendation - it can do what you want completely seamlessly - this page examines that and some other options:

Why can't I print a document created on my MacBook Air with Pages via a wired Lexmark X2650 printer?

I am unable to printe a document I created on my Mac with Pages via a wired Lexmark X2650 printer. Of course, I have already confirmed that it is correctly set up and connected. Why?
Thank you.

TextEdit is an application on your Mac.
Type TextEdit into Spotlight (magnifying icon top right on the menubar) to quickly locate and open it.
It is the basic Text/Word Processor (but actually very capable) that comes with all Macs and a good place to test differences if you hit a problem.

Why can't I get Bing on my home page?

Why can I only get the mobile me welcome page?

Unable to load log in page for mobile me on ipad2. Probably missing something obvious but I reckon that's what help is for eh?

The MobileMe web interface is not available for mobile devices such as iPad and iPhone. To sign in to your MobileMe account you need to go into Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars and add your MobileMe account. If you have any photos on MobileMe you will also need to open the Gallery app and sign in there as well.
Hope this helps.

Why iCloud only allows store documents created by Pages, Numbers or Key Note ? How can I "iCloud" documents created with Word Mac or Excel mac??

iwork for ios accepts for upload and also happily opens all your Microsoft office files, from Office97 standard doc/xls/ppt to the 2011 versions of docx,xlsx,pptx and various other of these format extensions.
Notice : the upload feature in www.icloud.com is only active if you in fact own these apps on your iPhone/Pad/pod. it is not a feature of iWork for the Mac ( iwork09 ) which itself is not icloud capable at all.

Why can't I translate between Swedish and Polish in the same Word document. This means I want to switch between two keyboards.

Why can't I get a Polish keyboard easily accessible from within my Word program? I have to choose it in Finder and then I can't switch back and forth between English/Swedish and Polish in the same Word document. Surely there must be a simple way of doing this by means of keyboard commands while I write, or do I have to go back to my old PC for that?
Ulf Magnusson

(1) You are talking about switching keyboard layouts, not about translating from Swedish to Polish or viceversa.
(2) The keyboard layout choice is not a function of the application (MS Word) in either Mac OS X or Windows; it is a system choice.
(3) Read
<http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.7/en/mchlp2214.html>
specifically "Input source list" and "Input source shortcuts".
In short, you choose the three keylayouts you wish to use for English, Polish, and Swedish, respectively, and then you set the shortcuts you prefer to use to switch between them.
And it's all there, in the Help files, on your very own computer…

When I try to open a document created in Pages, I get an error message saying "[Document Name" can't be opened." I don't want to lose hours of work; has anyone else encountered this?

When I try to open a document created in Pages, I get an error message saying "[Document Name" can't be opened." I don't want to lose hours of work; has anyone else encountered this?

A few general trouble shooting tips that may apply here:
1. If you used Software Update to do the OS update(s) to reach 10.6.7, go to http://support.apple.com/downloads/ and download and apply the Mac OS v10.6.7 Combo Updater. The Combo Updater contains some fixes that were not included in the incremental updaters used by Software Update.
1a. Check that you have the current version of Pages (and of the other iWork applications) installed. All three applications' current version numbers end in .0.5
2. A common cause of malfunctioning applications is a corrupted preferences file (.plist file). Your Pages '09's plist is at yourname > Library > Preferences > com.apple.iWork.pages.plist
Quit Pages, locate the file and Drag it to the Desktop (or to the Trash).
Restart Pages and attempt to open one of the files.
If all is well, Trash the plist file and empty the Trash.
If there's no change, AND you've made changes to the Preferences that you wish to keep, drag the file back to its previous location, replacing any new one that has been created.

Barry

Why can't I get the Kodak Document Print App in the UK?

Why can't I get the Kodak Document Print App in the UK?

"Apparently it's available in the US iTunes store but not here?"
Because Kodak has chosen not to make it available there.
"Can't for the life of me understand why that should be!"
You do not have to understand it for it to be so.
You can try asking Kodak, as they make the app.

Why can't I get Back To My Mac to work in both directions between my 2011 Mac Book Air and my 2012 Mac Mini?

Why can't I get Back To My Mac to work in both directions between my 2011 Mac Book Air and my 2012 Mac Mini? The network uses a Time Capsule. Everything works when connecting from the Mini to the Air, but the reverse is not the case, none of the Mini's drives are visible, and the screen sharing option is not available. I've tried the measures already suggested in online articles, everything seems to be configured correctly using my iCloud account. I'm at a loss, any suggestions would be appreciated.

I've now managed to get the service running in both directions, but not in the way I had anticipated. I had to create a second account on the Mac Book Air, this also has administrator privilages, everything works fine when connecting from this acccount. However, this is not the way I would expect to work, none of my documents, applications and settings would be available, unless I laboriously duplicated them to the new account.
Also, I've yet to get the service running from outside my home network.
