iCloud Drive Apple Setup
Enter your Apple ID password to setup iCloud Keychain.
Keychain is a secure authentication for your
Mac computer to assure the content of your computer
and other Apple devices is secure. Click the
‘OK’ button.
An iCloud drive folder will be created on your computer
and a shortcut to this folder will be placed on
your sidebar. Use this folder to sync files and folders
on your computer and between iOS devies like
your iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch.
You’ll be prompted to create a security code. The
security code is a four digit number used to ensure
the security of your computer and devices that
use iCloud. Enter a four digit number and click the
‘Next’ button.
Enter the same security code again and click the
next button.
You’ll need to have a phone that can receive text
messages. This phone is used to verify your identity
and to protect you in case someone tries to access
or change any of your account settings. Provide
phone information in the field and click the ‘Done’
button.
You will receive a six digit number to enter on the
next screen. Enter this number to finish the iCloud
setup process on your computer.
Apps that use iCloud will automatically create
these folders. You’ll probably be prompted
when the app runs for the first time.
