Welcome to the Apple Support Communities

iCloud requires Lion or Mountain Lion. Check if your Mac is supported > http://support.apple.com/kb/sp575 Buy Snow Leopard > http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard Then, make a backup, insert the DVD and upgrade. Finally, go to  > Software Update and install the latest version.

Check if your Mac is supported > http://www.apple.com/osx/specs If it's compatible, open App Store and purchase Mountain Lion. See if your apps are supported > http://www.roaringapps.com

To turn on iCloud, open System Preferences > iCloud and follow the steps
