iCloud

iCloud is a service that stores your content, including music, photos, contacts, calendars, and supported documents. Content stored in iCloud is wirelessly pushed to your other iOS devices and computers set up with the same iCloud account.

iCloud is available on iOS devices running iOS 5, on Macs running OS X Lion v10.7.2 or later, and on PCs with the iCloud Control Panel for Windows (Windows Vista Service Pack 2 or Windows 7 required).

iCloud features include:

ÂÂ iTunes in the Cloud—Download your previous iTunes music and TV show purchases to iPod touch for free, anytime you like.

ÂÂ Apps and Books—Download your previous App Store and iBookstore purchases to iPod touch for free, any time you like.

ÂÂ Photo Stream—Photos you take on one device appear automatically on all your other devices. See “Photo Stream” on page 54.

ÂÂ Documents in the Cloud—For iCloud-enabled apps, keep documents and app data up to date across all your devices.

ÂÂ Mail, Contacts, Calendars—Keep your mail contacts, calendars, notes, and reminders up to date across all your devices.

ÂÂ Backup—Back up iPod touch automatically when connected to power and Wi-Fi. See “Backing up iPod touch” on page 135.

ÂÂ Find My iPod—Locate your iPod touch on a map, display a message, play a sound, lock the screen, or remotely wipe the data. See “Find My iPod” on page 33.

ÂÂ Find My Friends—Share your location with people who are important to you. Download the free app from the App Store.

ÂÂ iTunes Match—With an iTunes Match subscription, all your music, including music you’ve imported from CDs or purchased somewhere other than iTunes, appears on all of your devices and can be downloaded and played on demand. See “iTunes Match” on page 39.

With iCloud, you get a free mail account and 5 GB of storage for your mail, documents, and backups. Your purchased music, apps, TV shows, and books don’t count against your free space.

If you have a MobileMe subscription, you can move it to iCloud from a Mac or PC at www.me.com/move until June 30, 2012.
