Heres some of what you can do with iCloud.
Save your les in iCloud Drive. Store any le in iCloud Drive, then access it anywhere—from
work or home, or on the road. To save a le to iCloud Drive, open a Finder window, then drag the
le to iCloud Drive in the sidebar. You can organize and tag les in iCloud Drive just like the les
on your MacBook Pro. And when you edit a le in iCloud Drive, your edits show up on any device
you use with iCloud.
Share purchases with Family Sharing. Let up to six family members share their iTunes Store, App
Store, and iBooks Store purchases—even if they all use dierent iCloud accounts. Pay for family
purchases with one credit card, and approve kids’ spending right from your MacBook Pro or iOS
device. Plus, share photos, a family calendar, reminders, and locations. To set up Family Sharing,
click the System Preferences icon in the Dock, click iCloud, then click Set Up Family.
Share photos using iCloud Photo Sharing. Share photos and video with just the people you
choose, and let them add their own photos, video, and comments. To get started, click the
System Preferences icon in the Dock, click iCloud, then click Photos.
Enjoy your purchases anywhere. When youre signed in to iCloud, purchases you’ve made from
the iTunes Store, Mac App Store, and iBooks Store are available on your MacBook Pro at any time.
So all your music, movies, books, and more are available wherever you go.
Locate your MacBook Pro with Find My Mac. If you misplace your MacBook Pro, you can easily
locate it on a map, lock its screen, or even erase its data remotely. To turn on Find My Mac, click
the System Preferences icon in the Dock, click iCloud, then click Find My Mac.
Your iCloud account comes with 5 GB of free storage, and your purchased music, apps, TV shows,
and books don’t count against your available space.
For more information about what you can do with iCloud, go to Mac Help and search for iCloud,
