Why do i have iCloud and Mobile me

Hi, why do I have iCloud mail account and MobileMe in iPhone? It also appears in my Mac's Mail App.
What's the difference between the two?
Thanks
Jingo

The 'previous local idisk' is the disk image which formed the 'local copy' of your iDisk and will contain the contents of the iDisk at the time of the last sync. You should be able to double-click the 'sparseimage' to open it, or use the 'File>Open' menu item in Disk Utility. If there are no files in it you want to keep you can delete it.

  • Why do I have to download songs/albums onto my iphone when I have icloud and purchased the songs from itunes?, Why do I have to download songs/albums onto my iphone when I have icloud and purchased the songs from itunes?

    Why do I have to download songs/albums onto my iphone when I have icloud and purchased the songs from itunes? I thought the purpose of purchasing from itunes when you have icloud is that you don't have to download each song/album that you want to hear.  I get like 5-10 songs from the last two albums i have downloaded, but not the entire album.

    Are you talking about iTunes Match?  If so, you don't have to download entire albums, all you have to do is play the songs you want to hear.
    If you're asking why you have to download the music at all rather than just playing it from iCloud, the music has to be stored locally on your device, either in permanent or cache memory, in order for your device to play it.

  • IPhone 6 downloaded music even when I have iCloud and home sharing off

    So I bought my iPhone 6 today. And logged in to the App Store to download a few apps. I later noticed that it had made available to stream and download all my songs that I have in my 5s even though I have iCloud and Homesharing off on both my iPhone 6 and 5s. Why is this?

    Homesharing does not transfer media... it simply allows one computer to access the library on another computer.
    If you want to move the media from one computer to another, then move it.
    Type "move itunes library" into the search bar and you'll find detailed instructions from Apple on how to move the iTunes library.

  • ICloud and mobile.me showing up in mail settings

    After setting up iCloud on my Mac and my Ipad 2, I have both iCloud and mobile.me settings/accounts showing up for the same address in my mail settings!!  Which do I use??  Or do I leave them both??  (I have duplicate mail - and both appear to be updating.)
    I also have an account left on my Ipad that was deleted as I changed over to iCloud.  The mail program appears to shut down as I try to delete the account under the settings.  I can get all the way to hitting the "delete account" key and then the program shuts down.  The confusing part is I thought this was actually under the Settings for the Ipad - so I guess I'm learning!!
    Suggestions??  Ideas??
    Thanks!

    Hi thanks for the reply. I did that and there is no Mobileme account there It's really starting to bug me!

    You can't setup an iCloud account using a PC. You need a Mac, or an IOS device. You can sign into iCloud on your PC once you open an account.

  • I have icloud and downloaded new CDs on my 2nd computer.  How do I download the new music into my old computers itunes.

    I have icloud and downloaded new CDs on my 2nd computer.  How do I download the new music into my old computers iTunes using icloud.

    For your computer first get iTunes to see it by:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    or
    iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X
    - The transfer iTunes purchases
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
    - Or redownload them by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    - Transfer other music by using a third-party program like one of those discussed here:
    newer copy
    - Connect the iPod to your compute and make a backup by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up
    - Restore the iPod from that backup
    Note that the backup that iTunes makes does not included synced media like apps and music.

  • I recently had to buy a new computer because my other one could not be fixed. I had purchased a lot of music and it was in my iTunes. I did not have iCloud and I would like to have all of my purchased music on my new computer. How do I do that?

    I would like to access my music from my account on another devise because my other one crashed. I do not have iCloud and I need this music on my new devise.

    Anything you purchased from the iTunes Store can be downloaded again, as often as necessary, as long as it still exists in the iTunes Store.

  • Why do I have HBO and Cinemax if it's not part of my subscription?

    Not understanding why I suddenly have HBO and Cinemax if I have not signed up for either one. I'm a new customer, just got a Fios bundle installed on Thursday. Have the TV Prime HD package with the free Epix/Starz/Showtime subscription. I never signed up for HBO/Cinemax and they're not listed on my programs online. Is this a free trial/preview type thing or should I contact Verizon about it?

  • My sister has an iPad with iOS 6.1.3 and I have an iPod with iOS 6.1.3 why does she have Siri and I don't?

    My sister has an iPad with iOS 6.1.3 and I have an iPod with iOS 6.1.3 also why does she have Siri and I don't?

    Siri requires a 5th generation iPod Touch. Yours appears to be a 4th generation.

  • I want to update my ios in ipad 2, message tells me to back up or lose. I don't have icloud and I can't get it without the newer version of ios. How can I backup without icloud?

    I want to update from ios 4.3 on my ipad 2. When I connect to itunes(newest version is installed) on pc, and attempt the update, I get a message to backup , or l will lose items purchased on the ipad. I don't have icloud yet, because when I try to add it to my ipad, I am told I need the newest version of ios. So it's a vicious cycle! I tried to buy itunes match, and I wasn't able to do that either! I have downloaded books, and songs on ipod that aren't able to be in my itunes library from CDs. What should I do and in which order, to protect my stuff from getting lost with the update?

    Backup with iTunes. If iTunes is asking you if you want to backup, say yes to that and it will backup your iPad. Have you ever synced with this computer before?
    My boilerplate response for anyone that wants to update the iOS.
    What you should do anytime that you update the device is to transfer purchases from the iPad into iTunes - File>Transfer Purchases - and you should backup the iPad as well. When you update the update the device, if something goes wrong, you can restore from the backup.
    However, iTunes should ask if you want to backup before you update, but just in case create the backup yourself before you update. The backup contains your app data and settings - along with other items - so make sure you backup first.
    If you have any other important files, you may want to transfer them to your computer as well, prior to the update.

  • My laptop with my iTunes on it has died. I have iCloud and an iPad so can I use that instead? Do I simply log in with my apple id? Also I have a new iPhone how do I sync that up? Will my old iPhone be saved on iCloud? Thanks

    My laptop is broken, hard disk failure. It's gone to the hospital but it will require a new hard disk.  I have an iPod. I also have iCloud which everything ( I think) has been backed up to.  I have an new iPhone and need to sync it up. Can I sync it to my iPad? So I can retrieve the back up?  Scratching my head a bit!

    iPad not iPod!

  • Why dont I have settings and Utilities in my "Tool...

    hi,
    For some reason I dont have settings and utilities in my tools menu? Does anyone know why or how I can fix this? There is so much i cant do without it. I have tried updating my n96 through my pc with the nokia updater software but it keeps saying that it cannot find my phone connected.
    Thanks for your help. I really have no idea what to do.
    Cheers

    Hi, you may be able to find the functions you need in file manager and move them back to the location you want them in.Would involve less re-setting than a hard reset (which will almost certainly work by the way, just takes a while to set up phone again)
    Good Luck
