Just got a new Iphone and want Icloud on my Mac but under settings the only option I get is Mobile Me, which is being discontinued.
Do I need Icloud on my Macbook as well as my Iphone? If so how do I get it?
thanks so much

Hi and welcome to the forum.

Not sure where to look on iPhone as i havnt got one, but on your Mac if your running Lion then hit the  top left System Preferences>Internet Wireless>iCloud and you can manage it there.
Also goto iCloud.com and set it up there as well.

HTH

Cheers

Well it would help enormously if you provided operating system details ~ pretty hard to guess.

If you are not running Lion, hopefully it is Snow Leopard OS X.6. It is reported a new Software Update to version OS X.6.9 will enable iCloud for SL users.

That is correct. iCloud is limited, on the Mac, to those of us using Lion. Full system requirements here.
