Hi,
Have now spent hours trying to set up icloud drive between my devices. It is showing on my iPhone and icloud.com but I can't seem to set it up on my mac. I've updated my software, etc. and followed all of the instructions I can find, but the icloud drive option just isn't showing under system > icloud
can anyone help?
MacBook Pro (13-inch Mid 2009)
Which version of MacOS X do you have installed? You need at least MacOS X 10.10 Yosemite on your MAc.
See: Set up iCloud Drive on all of your devices - Apple Support
Have you enabled iCloud Drive to show in the Finder preferences?
Click somewhere on the empty Desktop to bring the Finder forward, then go to the main menu bar: Finder > preferences.
Click" Sidebar " in the panel that opens and enable iCloud Drive.

Which version of OS X is on your Mac?
icloud drive doesn't come up as an option there...
10.9.5 updated today
DO you have a version of MacOS X that supports iCloud Drive? At least MacOS X 10.10?
I just updated to the one showing in my app updates, it says it's 10.9.5, is that not the latest?
No, that is the latest version of MacOS X Mavericks, thee last update that will show for your system, but iCloud Drive will come with the system upgrade to MacOS X Yosemite or later (Mac OS X 10.10.x).
The current version of MacOS X is MacOS X 10.11.3 El Capitan.
I'm too slow today 🙂
😁
thanks guys, thought I'd upgraded to El Capitan but looks like I might not have had enough space so didn't work, am trying again now - watch this space! total novice over here 🙂
How much space do you have?
