How to Enable/Disable iCloud Applications in Mac OS X Lion

iCloud is a new cloud storage service from Apple that is highly integrated into their new desktop and laptop operating system, OS X Lion. iCloud works seamlessly by automatically backing up your content to and from your Mac OS X and iOS devices to the iCloud servers. This article will walk you through the process of enabling and disabling applications from automatically syncing with iCloud in OS X Lion.
STEPS



1
CLICK THE APPLE ICON IN THE UPPER LEFT CORNER OF YOUR SCREEN FOLLOWED BY “SYSTEM PREFERENCES” FROM THE CONTEXT MENU.



2
CLICK “MAIL, CONTACTS & CALENDARS” FROM THE SYSTEM PREFERENCES WINDOW.



3
SELECT “ICLOUD” FROM THE PANE ON THE LEFT IN THE MAIL, CONTACTS & CALENDARS WINDOW.



4
CLICK THE CHECKBOX NEXT TO THE APP YOU WANT TO ENABLE OR DISABLE IN THE PANE ON THE RIGHT. Currently you can enable and disable Mail & Notes, Contacts, Calendars, Bookmarks, Photo Stream, Back to My Mac, and Find My Mac.
TIPS
You can open Launchpad in OS X Lion using custom shortcuts or hot corners by setting them in System Preferences.
Swipe between pages of apps in Launchpad by clicking and holding your mouse while making a swiping gesture left or right, or use a two finger gesture on your trackpad.

OS X Lion is only available as a downloadable upgrade through the Mac App Store.
