I have iCloud turned on on my Mac and iPad. However, iCloud does not show in the sidebar of Finder and I can not save a file using iCloud. How do I put it in my Finder sidebar?
Thanks

Data is not saved to iCloud via the Finder.
You can upload data by going to iCloud.com then sign in.
That data should then be available on your Mac and iPad.
Got you on that but here is the problem.
A new program I use transfers files to my iPad via iCloud. In order to do this I have to use the "save as" and then select iCloud from finder. However, iCloud is not on my sidebar and when I open preferences in finder it is no where to be found.

Eric,
The problem I have is that the iCloud icon or name is no where to be found in Finder preferences. I have the iCloud icon available in Safari to see what is running on my iPad. If I open iCould in System preferences it shows I am logged in and everything backing up is shown.
Thanks for the response.

You are missing this?
Eric,
That's what I need but its not there.
iCloud Drive is only available for Yosemite ( 10.10.* ) or later.
Only limited number of iCloud services are available if you are running 10.6.7.
Got the answer. I have a MacBook Pro 3,1 with 4 GB and was running Yosemite but it was so slow had to go back to Maverick. Just upgraded to 6 GB of memory and thinking about trying Yosemite again.
Any guesses?
Thanks for the help.

My computer ran Yosemite well with 6 GB RAM.
OK, might as well give it one more try.
Thanks for all the help to a novice.
