iCloud beta question

[Drag'nGT]

Is iCloud in beta at this moment? Besides the iTunes and App stuff. There are a lot of people using iOS 5 and I see refernces to iCloud but is it in any way working? Do you get to set up/create an @me.com email, contact and calendar sync? If this is working can you let us know how you like it? Is it working well between your Mac and/or iPad?

Thanks!

there has been threads and stuff on google showing how to make that happen.

Ok, I just wasn't clear what functions were currently in use. I wanted to know how the new features would be added to Snow Leopard... The kept saying iPhoto and all I could do is wonder about Apertures integration to photo streams and such.

At the mo only lion has iCloud full access. I wonder if apple will deny snow leopard just to encourage peeps to upgrade

You installed the beta stuff from the Dev centre that's needed? There's the icloud control panel and i think you need an iphoto beta too, not sure as I'm using windows 7 and I only need the ICloud control panel

I know there's an iCloud app for Lion available to devs, but is there any way to access my iCloud @me.com e-mail account on my Mac? I've tried signing in through me.com, but it's just Find My iPhone at the moment.

You need to download the iPhoto beta on the dev site- It works after that is loaded
