icloud control panel for windows xp.

Indeed, thanks for DropBoxing the files. The install went smoothly on an XP SP3 w/Office 2010 ThinkPad. It took a little Googling to find out where the iCloud app winds up - IN THE CONTROL PANEL! Syncing contacts and calendar entries works very well.

Also, I suppose I have one comment and one question;

-When a new version of iCloud arrives, we'll have to go through the install again and hopefully it will work

-Has anyone seen the iCloud systray icon on an XP machine? It doesn't show up on my machine whether I have the Show iCloud Systray Icon box (in the iCloud control panel applet) checked or not.

systray icon doesn't show up in my xp install either 😟

The Windows iCloud control panel doesn't technically support XP.

yeah we know that still it's a pity 😉

Anyone found a working solution on XP for the 1.1 version of the Panel?

Surprise-----

I may have missed it in this thread,,,but, did you know that even if you are fortunate to have Vista/7 for your conversion to the ICloud,,,,, Windows 8 is NOT compatible. I thought , if only they could have the Cloud conversion until after the Windows 8 is launched (soon),, I could upgrade to the "8" . I think there are still millions of folks with XP,,,,, and , many of them do have an IPhone/mobile me account. Whew ! So, for folks like me , who have had a mobile me account for years,,,but, have a base PC/XP,,, I am screwed. (have IPAD 2 and IPhone which I unwittingly thought could be my base station for the coversion to the Cloud-you must have a computer PC with Vista and/or 7, or, of course , Mac). As we approach the drop dead conversion June date, there are going to many really surprised folks out there. I was told by a very reliable source ,at apple, that they expect big time issues, so, are adding dozens of customer service people for this 'customer-focused' event.

So , you may be lucky, if you have Vista/7,,,,,but, longer term you need to know that Windows 8 will not work for a conversion ( direct info from appple ,today).

Question: Does the work around I've seen on the internet really work?? That will get me to late Summer/Fall when I convert to different tablet platform and new non-apple phone (as well as, several thousand employees in a firm I'm familar with).

Sorry for the rant.

Keep in mind that Windows 8 is still a customer preview at the moment. Kinda like a beta. Well, not kinda, it is a beta. It is not unlike the copy of 10.8 Mountian Lion that I am running right now. Only half of my programs actually work and it is glitchy as all get out. But again, it is just a beta. I would wait until Windows 8 is officially released, then we will have to take stalk of what works and doesn't work.
