If I were to use iDisk to save some of my files online, can I then access them from one of our PCs at work ? Have not found any mention of PC compatibility on the apple website.
I spent some time avoiding Lion after being part of seeding, even to the extent of buying a new MacPro last year, that would not require Lion. I wish to stay with Snow Leopard until a new OS apeals to me, might be Mountain Lion, might be Puma or Lynx. I now see that I have been caught out - MobileMe, iCal, iSync, iDisk etc will end and move (with limited comparability to MobileMac) to iCloud, and so far, it seems that this requires Lion exclusively!
Is this really so? Has Apple really become so violently unfriendly to its friends and associates - its Users, that it will actively and knowingly ignore their pleas, for a return to intelligent Operating Systems and Applications - I was told recently that Apple was only interested in those who are not yet Mac users. This would be very sad.
It does fit though with Apple's behaviour regarding FCP - I'd used used FCP since version 1, now I must stay with the ever aging version 7 or go to Adobe or Avid - neither of whom I enjoy working with. I might just have to invest huge money into a Heavyworks or Quantel system - I loathed FCPX! But really this is ultimately about Apple's direction. Why has it now become so narrow, when once it was possible to be many versions behind the current and still function?

I had to reinstall the OS but have a complete copy of my old hard drive. I want to get my old iCal calendars back. I have read on sites that they are stored in HD/user/library/application support/ical but this folder does not seem to exist in snow leopard...
I'm creating an AppleScript application bundle that relies on a separate application. I want to add this application to my bundle and then call it via "tell application xyz ... end tell"
So far I have been unable to make AppleScript see this application, except when I gave it the absolute path of where it is located. Obviously, as soon as my application bundle is moved to a different directory this will not work anymore so is not a solution. Tinkering with "path to me" and thus creating the current path to the bundled application also does not work, when saving the script, ScriptEditor tries to find the application and see if the commands I want to tell it exist btu fails and consequently does not save.
I tried putting the application into the Contents, Contents:MacOS, and Contents:Resources folders, all without success.
I've just set up a FW800 SSD to use as an external boot drive for my 2011 iMac (mainly to speed up start-up).
I wanted to find out if I can direct the external boot to access the program files on the internal HD as a default. Or do I need to reload them all again on to the new partition/drive? My main concerns are that some are 1-time registration programs, plus I don't want to fill the smaller SSD too soon...
I am unable to fully access an application or even open a folder. If I press F10, I can see the folder for example but I cannot click on it. I have shut the system off and restarted and still no change.
I will soon be getting a new macbook pro ret (soon) and will leave my macbook (13-inch, Aluminum, Late 2008) in the office where I am situated in university. I am looking to ensure that I can leave one at office and one at home. Yet keep access to both, I have seen "logmein pro" and seems to look good except one problem. It says to wake from sleep you need a computer on network running logmein. This I cannot guarantee as it is a university network. It also says that it will need to be linked to the network through cable to wake from sleep.
I will also need to close the lid of the laptop (or leave it open and risk trashing it) and have a password/login lock incase someone decides they want to be naughty. Anyway, I need a program that i can use over wifi (not highest priority) that WILL wake my macs from sleep (highest priority) and WILL (essential) allow me to have full remote access to computers including drag and drop. I dont care about accessing from my mobile as have drop box.
I just recently installed Windows 7 on my macbook pro. Everything seemed to work well, especially after I installed boot camp for windows and its drivers.
However I can't seem to connect to the internet. My router is detected but when I select to connect to it I get no internet access.
When I try to access iCloud or apple store from my Air the password of my mac account is not recognized, but this happens just with this specific computer, not with the MacBook pro or with my office Pro. It seems that mobilme account is not recognizing the computer. I can access and buy form the iTunes store, though.I contacted Apple support but no luck?
I would like use ICould. However I just have the mobile.me symbole on my MacBook. Is mobile.me the same as ICould (first question)? If not (second question) how I get the possibility to use ICould?
I am trying to access icloud on a second account on my imac but it gets rejected, while i can access icloud on the web. same with setting up mail while it is a legitimate existing account
I need to log in each time I access iCloud from Firefox or Safari, even though I always check the "Keep me signed in " box. I never explicitly log out of iCloud (I don't know how I would do that anyway). If I bring up my calendar in Firefox and then exit from Firefox, the next time I bring it up I have to log in again. It's supposed to keep you logged in for 2 weeks if you check the "Keep me signed in" box.
The music in my itunes is showing up, almost faded. I have been transferred all over Apple and still no one is available .Anyone know how to get music from icloud??
Cant access iwork on icloud/ Clicking icon takes me to store to get program which I have done. No luck. Read the document but the computer is not doing what it says it should do. All the other modules work just fine.
I have successfully upgraded my iPhone (iOS 5.1.1) from MobileMe to iCloud. And, on my NON-COMPATIBLE iMac (cannot run OS 10.7), my Mail from iCloud is working okay. I understand that my Calendar and Address Book will NOT be able to sync with my NON-COMPATIBLE iMac. However, here is my question: Can I use my Safari browser (5.0.6) on my NON-COMPATIBLE iMac to view my Calendar and Address Book at the Apple iCloud website? If so, how do I access it via Safari?
I have been using iCloud/photo stream ever since I got my iPhone which was about 2 years ago, but whenever I go on my computer and access my pictures on iCloud, it never displays all the photos I've taken, it only displays photos from up to two months ago. How can i access all my pictures?
I have a mac.com account and I've just started having problems logging in and checking my in-box. The issue arose yesterday afternoon (3/4/12) and I'm currently unable to receive email from my mac.com account on my macbook, iPhone or through iCloud. This is what happens when I try to access my account on each device or application: When I try to access my email though the mail client on my macbook this message appears. "The iCloud IMAP server “p02-imap.mail.me.com” rejected the password for user “helenlryan1” Enter your password again or cancel. I enter my password and it is rejected. This has never happened before and now my account is 'offline" My account details are the same and I've not changed them. I migrated my MobileMe account over to iCould on 30 March and upgraded to Lion on 31 March.. When I open my mail account in iCloud a message appears telling me: 'There was a problem loading the application due to possible network error or missing resources. Please try again" I currently have no access to my email.
i have an airport extreme and an HDD attached to it, Every one sees it and its a great day.then i was told i could access my HDD using icloud cause back to my mac is closing so i said sure, BUT i cant
I thought that we could still access our dot mac accounts on older equipment. It's too early to retire my G5 Quad, it is still my daily driver. I did succome to temptation and "moved" to iCloud on my MBP and iPhone, when I got home I discovered that Mail didn't work on my Quad. I changed the incoming settings, still no luck. I've been a user since the iTools days.
