Install iCloud on Windows 7 64 bit

I also have windows 7 64 bit and and have worked diligently for months to make it work. Forget it! I have failed miserably to install the I-cloud control panel. I am so PO'ed I am ready to trash the system!

I've managed to do it on my Win 7 64 bit system (see my earlier post).

I uninstalled Bonjour first (using Microsoft Fixit because Control Panel Uninstall would not do it).

Then reinstalled latest version of iTunes. Then installed iCloud Control Panel.

iCloud works, but I have a couple of problems:

a) Everytime I restart, I get an Apple program that needs User Account Control permission to run (even though I've set the privileges to Adminisatrator)

b) I have 2 users on this PC. Using Photo Stream, one user uploads and downloads fine. The other can upload but can't download.

n.b. I am not using iCloud as a substitute for Outlook functions, only Photostream and Reminders

Hi

I have been having problems with iTunes and Outlook when I install iCloud on my windows 7 64bit

Everytime I installed iCloud, it would not let me open iTunes or outlook and the computer would freeze.

so i had to uninstall iCloud to allow me to work outlook and iTunes

However after weeks of trying different advice - none would work UNTIL if you uninstall bonjour from your windows 7 64bit and then re install iCloud - this then works

🙂

If you have and HP Pavilion, after the download process starts, it will ask you which folder you want to save it in. DO NOT choose the "My Computer/Programs (x86)". Choose "My Computer/Programs" folder only. This worked for me.

Thanks for that information. That's one thing I didn't try. I've noticed in Outlook 2010 that Microsoft has put the .pst files in the My Documents/Outlook Files so maybe Apple is following suit with the PC version of iCloud. I'll try it but veerrry careful :-)

A couple of other questions:

1. Did you have to uninstall anything (like Bonjour, iTunes, etc.as mentioned above)?

2. Outlook 2010 on my PC is installed as 32-bit although PC is 64-bit (it was necessary for an add-in.) How did you install Outlook 2010...like I did, on similiar machine?

Thanks.
