I'm using an older Macbook Pro with Snow Leoprd and I can not use iCloud anymore. I need to install iCloud but my OS is not suitable for the new version of iCloud. On my Windows Laptop a have access to my account but not using my Macbook. A little bit strange.
Trying to get icloud, installed snow leopard, now it says I need OSX, but my processor isn't right for it. Is this possible? Do I need to buy a nw computer? will I loose all my mobile me storage?
I believe I've researched enough posts here on Apple Discussions to tell me that what I want to do is possible, but I want to confirm it before I take some irrevocable action. So, first I'll describe what I want to do, then my understanding of how to do it, and then ask my questions.  I want to keep my mac.com email functionality for my primary account, my aliases, and my email-only accounts—all of which use mac.com addresses.For now, I don't care about contacts, calendars, bookmarks, or any other syncing except mail server syncing with my SeaMonkey mail client on multiple Snow Leopard Macs.I can't install Lion (yet) on all of my Snow Leopard computers. I have some software compatibility issues that have yet to be resolved, and one machine (Macbook Pro Core Duo) isn't compatible with Lion at all.I have several IMAP and POP mail accounts that forward to my primary mac.com address, and I would like that to continue. It's my understanding that I can log into my MobileMe account, select the "Not all devices meet requirements" option, agree to the iCloud Terms of Service, and then click the Move to iCloud button to use Apple's mail services with iCloud after MobileMe ends. Here are my questions:Will the move to iCloud work as described?Do I need to claim I have Lion installed on all devices? (I don't.)Will all of my existing mac.com email-only accounts and aliases continue to work after I move to iCloud? (I seem to recall reading somewhere that the paid-for email-only accounts will work, but the aliases wont...but I'm not certain that's correct.)Will I have full access to all iCloud features on any Mac on which Lion is installed?I currently have some web content hosted on my iDisk, and I understand that the iDisk will disappear on July 1. Is there some equivalent functionality in iCloud, wherein iCloud will host browser-based web content?That doesn't appear to be the case, but I figured it wouldn't hurt to ask.Â

Do in need to update to OS Lion in order to be able to sync my iMac address book with my iPhone> I know cloud is suppose to do this automatically but new to it and not sure how to make this all work.
I followed Roger Wilmot's clear instructions to migrate to iCloud using Snow Leopard:Â [URL]Â
But having set up the account, iCloud in Apple Mail will not accept the password. I have checked, and the password is the correct one, which gets me into MobileMe correctly. I have not deleted my MobileMe mail account, and that is still working properly, and accepting the password. The password is a new one, which complies with 8 characters, at least one capital, and at least one numeral.
I have received a free upgrade CD for Snow Leopard and been told to pay for an upgrade to Lion first then instal Snow Leopard.I want to be able to see my mobileme emails on my Power Mac G5 Machine Name:
[code]....
I have noticed some comments that make me think my machine will not support these upgrades? What should I do? Will I still be able to remotely access my .me account emails after the change ie; online?
My system is running Leopard how do I get Snow Leopard? and then Lion? I need these for icloud? Also If I load Lion I have heard that my 2004 copy of Microsoft office will no longer Run is that true?
I'm trying to sync my icloud account with my computer but this message comes up .The calendar [url].. was not found on the server. Make sure the URL is correct. I can't find the URL for my icloud account.
I find it hard to believe that with all the loyalty that I've shown Apple through the years - literally thousands and thousands of dollars that I can't access iCloud through my iMac because it's not compatible with Lion. Is this true? Is there a work-around other than having to buy a newer Mac?
Mountain Lion won't run on my Intel-graphics dual core white MacBook. Lion should run, but I've been disappointed with Lion and it is now end-of-life (mercifully short). So I've a perfectly fine and responsive Snow Leopard machine. Only problem -- when MobileMe dies in June Address Book on that device won't sync with our iPhone [1].Â
I know Apple doesn't allow 3rd parties to sync anything to iCloud. So there's no solution that way. One approach is to use a 3rd party app to sync Address Book on this machine with Address Book on another machine that in turn syncs with iCloud.Â
The easier approach is to go all Google; sync Address Book to Google, set the iPhone to use a Google Apps account. (Ironic that Apple's obsoleting a solid MacBook should drive us to Google.)Â [1] For various reasons the iPhone syncs to another machine with our family app/media library. So I can't sync Address Book via iTunes.

I have OS 10.7 (latest version) installed on a MacBook Pro, and iOS5 on my iPhone. I recently migrated to iCloud from MobileMe. Â However, my company still uses OS 10.6.8.Â
How can I get my Address Book on my work Mac, running OS 10.6.8 to sync with my iCloud account?Â
How do I set up the iCloud account in my address book? Where is the Contacts server?Â
And please don't tell me to upgrade to 10.7. That's not an option.
How do you address an email to a group with iCloud? I used to just type in the name of the group and all the addresses filled in. Since I've switched to iCloud it doesn't recognize the group name. If I select +, then the the group name I'm still asked to select individual recipients.
My Macbook Pro was purchased in November 2010. Can't load Snow Leopard Have an iPhone 4s Want to sync calendar on my two devices.iCloud not a choice in my system preferences Can I do this with MobileMe?
Mail won't download on my Snow Leopard Macbook Air. Activity icon keeps spinning then it asks for my MobileMe password and keeps spinning. What's the issue? I have iCloud on my Lion Mac Mini and iPohne 4S and they work fine. Is this the same old legacy system not supported aggravation?
