The MacMinute Café: mobileme makes oi larf | Thread profile

I just signed up for the free trial - and mobileme won't recognise my login. I went in to change the password, in case I typed it wrong, and after updating it I got this screen: What fun - I'm not logged into the Japan website, there's no Continue button, and there's no list to the right. The MobileMe update is supposed to have updated my Mail app but there's no...

Well, this got solved at http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID =7613824 - seems that when you create a new me.com account, apple creates a new AppleID for you, so you have to go into that account in Apple and change the password before you can log into me.com.

If you have the willpower to pass buy without a glance, congratulations! If you don't, who could blame you? It IS , after all, the most amazing device to come along in quite some time. Resistance may be futile. - alec - Post Extras:

Well, they didn't have one in the end, but I give in - I'm going to Exeter tomorrow, where there's both an O2 store and an Apple store. Now installing iCavein v6.xx with all the new cool 3D effects... A lopsided man runs best along the little side-hills of success - Frank Moore Colby Post Extras:

Hooray, I can't get one! My O2 contract is too recent to upgrade it, I'll have to wait until December when the PAYG iphones come out, unless I want to be paying for 2 contracts at once. So I'm stuck with my current phone, which is an exercise in contentment for the 21st century. At least I've sort of got it sort of syncing now. - padmavyuha A lopsided man runs ...
