what happened to my iDisk on my mac desk top?
It's gone and I can't sync it?
Does this have something to do with iCloud?
MacBook, iOS 4.3.2
from wikipedia > "Apple discontinued MobileMe on 30 June 2012 and iDisk is no longer available. Apple stated that they would not migrate iDisk service from MobileMe to iCloud."
MobileMe terminated on 1 July and it has not been possible to mount the iDisk on your Desktop nor sync it since then. Its contents have now been deleted.
If you were running 'iDisk Syncing' then you should go to System Preferences>MobileMe>iDisk and turn it off; and to the Sync pane and stop any syncing which is running; then go to the Account pane and sign out, removing your username and password. This is to prevent error messages arising from an inability to contact the server.
If you were running iDisk Syncing you may be able to locate the disk image which constituted the local copy. This lives in (user)/Library/FileSync unless you have found a folder on your Desktop called 'previous local iDisk for....' which would contain it. If you open this image you should find that it contains a copy of the contents of your iDisk at the time of the last sync.
iCloud does not provide an equivalent service. If you want online file storage you will need to find an alternative - this page examines some options:
