Will iCloud work without OSX Lion?

Will iCloud work only with OSX Lion? I cannot use Lion on my G4 Powerbook, and Mobile Me is going away in a few months, so does this mean that only my newer devices will work with iCloud?

That's correct. You can access mail on iCloud by entering the settings in your Mail application, but you have to have a Mac with 10.7.2 or an iOS device to set the account up in the first place, and the other facilities won't work.

  • Will Parallels work with OSX Lion?

    A friend has just bought an iMac which still has Snow Leopard. He was wanting to upgrade to OSX Lion but has heard that Rosetta is no longer available in Lion (which he currently needs to run an older language program)
    He was thinking about using Parallels and running the Windows version of this program, but needs to know if currently available versions of Parallels will work on Lion.
    He can't use bootcamp because his Windows machine OS is WinXP and there is no point in buying Windows 7 just for this one program.
    Or should he not upgrade for the time being?
    Has anyone had experience with Lion and Parallels please?
    Thanks
    Ross

    Thanks so much for that information - I'll tell our friend.
    All the best

  • My second monitor will not work in osx lion

    i plugged my secondary monitor into my mac pro and it doesn't get recognized by the os.

    If it uses an Mini DisplayPort connector, push Hard!
    Keep pushing until essentially ALL of the metal cable-end disappears inside the jack.

    Need to know your Mac model. If it's a PowerPC, the max OS is Leopard 10.5.x. If it's an Intel procesor, you can upgrade to Snow Leopard (for $29) & later to Lion.

    Leopard is no longer available at the Apple Store *but may be available by calling Apple Phone Sales @ 1-800-MY-APPLE (1-800-692-7753)*.

  • HT4759 Will iCloud work if have 4th gen. iPod touch (iOS 6) but an iMac running OS X v.10.6.8 (1.83GHz Intel Core Duo processor prevents Lion upgrade-according to Apple)?

    Will iCloud work when iMac (1.83 GHz. Intel Core Duo) is running Mac OS X 10.6.8 with 4th gen. iPod touch (iOS 6) because unable to upgrade to Lion due to processor's inablit to meet Apple's specifications for Lion? My family had three iPod touch (iSO 6) devices and currently use iClou, but set it up with a Macbook Air using Lion- but yesterday it died. Is there any way to retain the use of oPod touh devices, iTunes purchases, and iCloud services (and the huge amount of money spent on the) if not able to use the Macbook Air? I know the iMac is "old" but do not have thousands of dollars to purchase new computer at this time.

    10.7.2 or later is required to use iCloud on the computer. Your iPod Touch, however, would have full use of iCloud.

    In addition to Roger Wilmut1's excellent advice regarding iCloud Mail you can use Soho Organizer on Leopard for iCloud contacts and calendars as well. Soho Organizer will subscribe to iCloud giving you access to contacts, calendars and tasks, unfortunately it's $99.00, but it works extremely well. (good enough to justify the $99 even if you have Lion)

  • I have a late 2008 Macbook Pro, I am trying to run MW3 but it will not work without crashing a few minuets into the game. The general specs on my computer are a dual processor 2.53 ghz. 4 gb ram and a NVIDIA geforce 9400 (9600 is the alternate card)

    Things to note:
    I have been unable to update firmware on this computer for about a year now. Im not sure why.
    I am running a bootleg copy of Windows XP on this computer, I would not like to spend $149 to get Windows 7 if possible.
    any thoughts on the matter would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

    Why don't you take your 'old' MBP into your local Apple Store and have them check out everything that's wrong with it - and I mean everything? Then, when you get an estimate about how much it would cost to get the machine completely repaired, ask about the Apple flat-rate repair pricing?
    It's worth a shot - and with what you may save, you can put in the bank for a new MBP.

  • Will Xserve work without a rack?

    Before I get all these rants about how stupid this question is let me preface it with a short story:
    The owner of my company wants a new server. He asked me which I thought was better: tower or rack mount. I said that the PowerMac doesn't have the service warranty we would expect from a server, and as a desktop, is not really designed to run 24/7 the same way Xserve is. So we configured a new Xserve and it is in the process of being made. He then asked me the question: "will it work without a rack?" Being honest, I said "It would power on, but it's not recommended to run that way because it can't cool properly and it's not physically secure."
    Now he tells me we aren't ordering a rack for this $6000 server. Can you please list all the reasons this is NOT going to work, so I can go back to him with a huge rebuttal? It just doesn't seem logical to me to not spend a few hundred dollars to properly secure this very expensive piece of equipment, and I don't have any fight left in me to come up with all the answers on my own.
    PowerBook G4 12" 1.5GHz   Mac OS X (10.4.7)   5th Gen iPod Video, 1st Gen iPod Nano

    He then asked me
    the question: "will it work without a rack?" Being
    honest, I said "It would power on, but it's not
    recommended to run that way because it can't cool
    properly and it's not physically secure."
    Speaking from my limited experience (18 months) with our Xserve G5: The Xserve does not need top and bottom venting; it cools front to back. A risk, though, will be that it gets shoved back against a wall and thus has poor airflow out the back, and you don't realize until you have done it what a mess of cables comes out the back and why you need the cable management arm (as aggravating as it is when you first use one) to manage the cables.
    The Xserve is heavy. It's difficult to walk away with one. The enclosure lock will still work without a rack, but it's not real security anyway, just protection against the drives being bumped out by accident. But an unracked Xserve will be prone to injury and falling off a table, etc. They are BIG and HEAVY. The Intel Xserve is even longer than the Xserve G5 (look at the dimensions).
    If the concern is the expense, well, you can build your own rack rather cheaply. I suggest Starcase (http://www.starcase.com), which lets you build a rack of any dimensions - you will probably want at least a 3U or 4U rack for your Xserve - 1U for the Xserve, 1U for a UPS (APC has a nice 1U 1000W UPS and a same-size 750W UPS), 1U for a tape drive and autoloader (you will need to back up all that data), and you might need another few rack units of height. The nice thing about the Starcase rack solution is that, as your rack height needs expand, you can simply get the four corner posts of greater height and grow your rack. Starcase also has side panels, top panels, etc. For custom-height solutions (rather than their pre-bundled standard sizes), see:
    http://www.starcase.com/customsteel_rackstore.htm
    Check the Starcase prices so you can present your boss with a true picture of the cost. They are built like a tank. I STRONGLY advise that you put your Xserve in a rack; otherwise, it will be very difficult to service when the time comes - and you WILL need service, eventually.
    However, note that the Xserve is NOISY. If the Xserve is going to be in an office environment, you will need an acoustical enclosure, such as the XRack Pro. See:
    http://www.xrackpro.com/
    Very nice, very quiet, and a bit pricy.
    Hope this helps.

  • TS3999 when will iCloud work with outlook 2013?

    when will iCloud work with outlook 2013?

    I have been running Outlook 2013 for a couple of weeks now using W8 64bit.
    It works with iCloud and is a little flakey, what I've found.
    1. 4 X Junk Folders.
    2. Some emails cannot be moved into saved folder, saying message has changed, but opening in outlook safe
        mode allows move.
    3. Sent Items (this computer only) and Sent Messages, so you have to move emails from Sent Items to Sent
         Messages if you want them to sync across devices.
    4. Icloud control panel say's there is a problem and not syncing but it is no problem.
    I can live with the bugs, but I wish the last icloud update would have corrected the issues.

    Apple states that (of the MBP lines) it has to be from Mid/Late 2007 or later.  yours seems to be right on the line.
    Apple says
    If you are running Lion, you can find out if your current Mac qualifies by clicking the Apple icon at the top left of your screen, choosing About This Mac, then clicking More Info.
    you must also have the latest version of Snow Leapord or Lion

    hallo,
    I want to watch a show of myself on Time Warner Cable TODAY live ONLINE while being in Europe, so it is urgent:
    sometimes when I try to install a software I get the following error message:
    'Sorry, Expander will not work without the Stuffit Engine. Please reinstall the original installer.'
    Just now I wanted to install 'Windows Media Player 9 for Mac OS X' and got that error message. Any suggestions?
    THANKS YOU!

    "Any suggestions? "
    Obviously you need to reinstall Stuffit Expander. Download it from Stuffit.com.
    Also, forget about Windows Media Player. It's out dated, and not even made anymore. Download the free Flip4Mac QuickTime plugin from Flip4Mac.com
    Hope that was urgent enough...
