Move to … iCloud not available

What do you mean by your main user.

Are they on the same computer or start up disk, are they all using ML, lion doesn't have document syncing through the applications. I assume you have documents and data checked in system preferences.

Yes sorry, I must have posted while you were posting and missed it.

You might try the following, every step may not apply:

1. Sign out of your account

(If you are unable to do this because System Preferences has frozen, Force Quit System Preferences and try again)

2. When prompted, opt to delete, contacts, calendars etc from your Mac.

(You are only deleting this data from your Mac, not from iCloud, the data will be reinstated when you log back in. If you need to check that the data is in iCloud before deleting it go to iCloud.comand check each section for data)

3. Having logged out, check that the iCloud accounts along with their data have disappeared from the Mail, Address Book and iCal Applications.

(If necessary, delete the iCloud accounts from each of these application separately from each Applications Preferences)

4. At this point it may be worth trying to log into iCloud from the System Preferences iCloud settings again, if this works, all well and good, if it doesn't continue to step 5.

5. Open your User Library folder in the Finder. (When in the Finder, go to the Go menu, hold down the option key (alt) and choose Library when it appears in the Go menu)

6. Navigate to Library > Application Support > iCloud and drag the iCloud folder to your desktop. (This action only copies the folder and will provide you with a back up)

7. Select the iCloud folder again in Library > Application Support and drag it to the trash, enter your administrators password when prompted.

8. Restart your computer.

9. You should now be able to enter your ID and Password in system Preferences > iCloud and log into your account. Check the services you wish to use and once you are satisfied it's working as it should, trash the iCloud folder you copied to your desktop earlier.

I'm not sure in that case, if that didn't help.

How has no one mentioned how ridulous it is that you have to do this to get a signature back? Sorry, got to be another way.

I have a similar problem. When I create a signature or saved mailbox in Mail (on 10.8.4), it isn't there once I close and reopen Mail. This thread helped me track down the problem to iCloud's Documents & Data. If I turn Documents & Data off, the changes are saved to ~/Library/Mail/V2/MailData/. When the feature is turned on, changes to these two (signature and saved mailbox) don't save there and don't persist.

I ran Repair Disk Permissions early in my troubleshooting process, but that didn't help. For what it's worth the MacBook Pro Retina 15" is new and the user account doesn't have administrative privileges.

I'd prefer to not have to create a new user account and move all my data. If anyone has any suggestions, I'm all ears.

Promote your existing account to an Administrator. You'll need an Admin account to do that.

Thanks for your help Csound1. I have a separate admin account. It's against company policy (and not a good practice) to have admin rights on the account you use every day.

Are you suggesting I temporarily promote my account? If so, that's possible though what steps should I take with admin rights?

I was simply addressing this:

Rather than making a new account and moving data it would be simpler to promote the one you have, I am not addressing any of the other posters questions, and frankly you would be better served by starting your own post, and stating your question. There are too many in this thread already.
