Gotta be on an OSX Lion device or IOS 5 to get it to work though eh?

Re: www.iCloud.com

Did it work for you? Asking me to go to system preferences, but i can't find anything iCloud related?

 

[DeeKay86]

Re: www.iCloud.com

Yep, which will happen today!!

'Find my iPhone' works a treat though!

Website is broken, went into find my iphone, it couldn't find it, now I can't get out of find my iphone, just auto loads every time I open the site.

You need to click the cloud icon on the top left of the devices list ;-)

Works fine for me.

Just clicked 'Find my iPhone' and could see my iPad at home, iPhone at work, and the wife's iPhone at her work.

Wouldnt it have been hilarious if you saw your wifes iPhone at your best mates house?

 

[Gally]

Re: www.iCloud.com

I'm going for no.

They couldn't cope with her

I'm tempted to remote lock / send a loud sound which can't be turned off.

I think because I had my handset changed at apple I need to setup find my iphone again.

Works on 3GS.

It's iOS 5 you need, mate.

 

[cafcross]

Still trying to really understand this., so 2 questions.

1) Can I choose what I want to have synced with iCloud? As in if I don't want my music to sync with iCloud I can untick it? And just sync my contacts etc?

2) If I do sync my music, when I import a CD into iTunes and it automatically is available to me on my iPhone, does it take up memory on my iPhone? Or am I just accessing it via iCloud?

 

[Ollieeee]

Re: www.iCloud.com

either.

I've got Lion but it won't work

 

[Curley]

I have iOS5 but can I not use iCloud because my MacBook is still running Snow Leopard?

 

[N0ddie]

First time I've ever used the find my device thingy and have to agree that it is pretty cool.

 

[lewisredfern001]

one thing that really bugs me is that my @me.com address is transfered to icloud but i dont even use the address and just use my aol one.

 

[Christopher]

It's amazingly brilliant.

My MobileMe sub for three years now looks even more laughable.

 

[AK]

You paid for MobileMe?

 

[DeeKay86]

You paid for MobileMe?

Nope got it when it was free!

 

[AK]

Chris

 

[Christopher]

Yep. For three years.

At least I got a cool email address before all the noobs snap them up now it's free.

 

[AK]

That's true.

Only good thing about MobileMe IIRC

 

[Gally]

I don't use it, although I need a new email address I think.

I use Exchange. Liking iOS5 though.
