Why is the Photostream option on my icloud (on my MacBookPro) not allowing me to check the box?

When I click into the icloud on my MacBookPro, All the options are blackended, allowing me to place a check mark next to each option. The Photostream option is not blacked out, so I cannot check it. I also recently upgraded to the OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.2) Any suggestions for help? Thanks!

I'm not aware of any issues with iPhoto 9, it appears to work just fine for me.
If you are making a judgement from what you see in these communities, don't forget that you aren't seeing a balanced review of any product, the communities here are like doctors waiting rooms were the only people there are ill, you wouldn't conclude the human race was sick because a visit to the doctors.

When I set up the cloud control panel on my pc it will not allow me to ck the option for callandor and contacts to use that feature. Therefor my ipad callendar will not sync with the cloud

When i set up the cloud controll panal on my pc it will not allow me to ck the box for contacts, callandor etc. There for my Ipad will not sync my callendos or contacts with the cloud

I think you are mistaken, your ipad has no problem to sync with the cloud. Your pc however does, since you can't check the check box. So why do not you try to concentrate on that part of problem and find out why. For starters, check what happens if you disable your antivirus/firewall on your computer/network and check box again. Describe what you see and messages you get. Good luck.

I bought a movie off of iTunes, but it will not play. I click on it and the movie's menu shows up, but it will not allow me to select the "play" option.

After purchasing a movie from iTunes, I clicked on the film and it brought me to the movie's DVD menu. However, it will not allow me to select it to play. I can select the "chapters" option, but I cannot select any of the chapters. Essentially, it is stuck on the menu.

I am unable to see the photos which i have taken with iPhone on the photostream option of ipad

I am unable to see the photos which i have taken with iphone on my ipad ( photostream features is not working). i have checked the settings of both devises and photostream of both is working.

Are you talking about older pictures you took before turning photo stream on? If so, they don't sync via photo stream. You have to sync them to a computer's itunes then sync to other device.

I can no longer edit the info for my songs, movies and tv shows. This occurred since I loaded Windows 7 Pro on my C drive, and then fownloaded ITunes 10. Why will the program not allow me to access the track info to edit it?

Ah yes school boy error there out of frustration and discontent..
My issue is with music/apps/films etc not downloading from iTunes / App Store.
They initially fail and message is displayed stating unable to download / purchase at this time, yet if I retry it says I've already purchased (?) or alternatively I go to the purchased section and there they are waiting with the cloud symbol..
However some items get frozen in the download window and cannot be retried or deleted. Message appears stating to tap to retry, but even if you stole every bath and sink in the uk you'd still not have enough taps.
I post here as the iTunes guys are useless in there 'help' and have only advised posting here or phoning apple, at my expense, to explain a problem that could be rectified by forwarding my original email to a techie. However the tech team apparently don't have an email address as they're from ye olde Middle Ages..!
Anyways I digress.
So I tried sync to pc, but instead of showing the file as ready to listen/use/view, the iCloud symbol shows and I'm back to square one as the item is unable to download..
At frustration station waiting for a train from pain...
All my software is up to date, and had all worked fine prior to the last big iOS update that resulted in all the changes in display and dismay.
Answers in a postcard :-)
Much love

To restore from an iCloud backup you have to erase the phone and start over. To do this, go to Settings>General>Reset, tap Erase All Content and Settings, then go through the setup assistant again and when given the option, choose Restore from iCloud Backup. There is no other way to do this.
Be sure you phone is connected to wifi and your charger as this is likely to take some time to finish.

My import window does not allow me to pick the "move" option. How do I access it?

My import window does not allow me to pick the "move" option. How do I access it?

Because Adobe has taken the stance, within Lightroom, that it will not touch files on card. Your card serves as a fail-safe backup in the event of disaster.
Ejecting a card has no effect on your images and is allowed so that you can removed the card without intervention of the OS.
After you've ensured image fidelity and backup, accepted best practice is to reformat your card in-camera. Trust me, I don't want to be on this forum answering questions about why someone lost their files because they "moved" them. This has been debated many times on the forum.

I have multiple devices that have my iCloud E-mail, I want to disable the E-Mail on some of the devices but keep it on others, I do not have physical access to the ones I want to disable but I do have access to the devices I want to keep receiving mc

I have multiple devices that have my iCloud E-mail, I want to disable the E-Mail on some of the devices but keep it on others, I do not have physical access to the ones I want to disable but I do have access to the devices I want to keep receiving mail, can I do this with a simple password reset or will that still leave all devices enabled?

The simple way would be to uncheck 'Mail' in System Preferences (or Settings)>iCloud, but as you would need access to the devices in question to do that you will have to change your password, at http://appleid.apple.com. You will then need to sign out and back on all the devices you want to be able to receive mail, and it's important that you follow this procedure and note the warning:
Firstly, if you have 'Find My iPhone/iPad/iMac' enabled on any of your devices, turn it off.
Go to http://appleid.apple.com and click 'Manage your Apple ID'. Sign in with the current ID.
Where it says 'Password & Security' and gives your current ID email address, click 'edit'.
Enter your new password and click 'Save changes'.
Now you will need to go to each of your devices and sign out in System Preferences (or Settings)>iCloud - 'Sign out' on a Mac, 'Delete this account' on an iOS device (this will not delete the account from the server).
Then sign back in with your new ID. Your iCloud data will disappear from your devices when you sign out, but reappear when you sign back in.
I re-iterate: before you start, turn off 'Find My Mac' (or whatever) or you will need the services of Support.
The devices on which you have not changed the password will throw up continual error messages as they attempt to contact iCloud and fail.

HT204053 in my iphone settings, my phone has not allowed me to change the apple id account i want to use for icloud

in my iphone settings, my phone has not allowed me to change the apple id account i want to use for icloud
im using another id for my purchases, which was the same one set for icloud, but i wasnt using icloud, now i made a new id, and want to set it for icloud, but its not offering me the chance to change it in icloud settings

Welcome to the Apple Community Rozie.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")

I am trying to sync a playlist to my Nano, but when I click on the Music tab at the top, it will not allow me to select the option Selected Playlist, Artists, etc. I cannot un-check the Entire Music library option and check the Selected Artist - on

I am trying to sync a playlist to my Nano, but when I click on the Music tab at the top,
it will not allow me to select the option Selected Playlist, Artists, etc. I cannot un-check the Entire Music library
option and check the Selected Artist … one.
I have changed the Sync option to Manually sync, but that does not help.
How can I change this to the second option?
Thanks.

There is a checkbox above those two options for how to sync. It says Sync Music; it enables automatic syncing. That box needs to be checked before you can select from the two options for how automatic syncing is performed.
NOTE: If the iPod is current set up to Manually manage music [and videos], checking that Sync Music box replaces its current content with content from your iTunes library, based on how automatic syncing is set up on that screen.
So, if your goal is to add ONE playlist to an iPod that is managed manually, you do not want to do this because iTunes will erase the iPod's current content and replace it with just that ONE selected playlist (and whatever else you select on that Music settings screen).
Instead, if the iPod currently uses the manual setting, you need to add playlists manually to the iPod (not use the automatic syncing setting). Please post back with more details about your situation.

How do I remove the Windows partition? Boot Camp Assistant does not allow me to select the remove option.

I am using an iMac, 8.1, early 2008. I installed Windows XP at that time. I am now using OS 10.8.5 and want to remove the Windows partition to free up disk space. Boot Camp Assistant does not allow me to select the "install or remove" option. How can I get rid of the Windows partition?

You can try removing it in Disk Utility.
To resize the drive do the following:
1. Open Disk Utility and select the drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list.
2. Click on the Partition tab in the Disk Utility main window. You should see the graphical sizing window showing the existing partitions. A portion may appear as a blue rectangle representing the used space on a partition.
3. Select the bottom rectangle/partition. Click on the Delete [-] button below the sizing window to remove it. Click on the Apply button. Wait until the process has completed.
4. In the lower right corner of the sizing rectangle for the remaining partition is a resizing gadget. Select it with the mouse and drag it all the way down to the bottom. Click on the Apply button and wait until the process has completed.
You should now have a restored single volume on the drive.
It would be wise to have a backup of your current system as resizing is not necessarily free of risk for data loss. Your drive must have sufficient contiguous free space for this process to work.
