iCloud
iCloud stores your music, photos, documents, calendars, and more. And it wirelessly pushes them to your Mac, iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and even your PC. All without docking or syncing. So when you buy a song on one device, it’s instantly available on all your other devices. When you adjust your calendar, all your devices stay up to date. And with Photo Stream, your latest photos appear everywhere you want to see them, automatically. To customize your iCloud settings, open the Apple menu, choose System Preferences, and click iCloud. Then sign in with your Apple ID and choose the iCloud features you want to use.
