my .mac e-mail has been spotty and slow already yesterday and now it's down altogether. i don't even get to the login page. the welcome page comes up slow and it says that all .mac services are working:rolleyes: .

beyond that all other internet works fine so it's not my connection. does anybody else have problems with .mac right now?

i'm up for renewal in 24 days and if it's that unreliable i might reconsider.....:mad:
 
my .mac webmail was down for 20 min and has just come back up - i suspect an update is in the works



or maybe not
 
My .mac mail and idisk are always slow as hell. Maybe their tubes are clogged?
 
email and iDisk appear to be working fine for me.. email is working fine for my other email only accounts too. Just uploaded some stuff too, seemed snappy to me (I use transmit to upload and download).

I did notice that they have a yellow light on the .mac page for sync right now. but everything else seems fine.
 
Just clicked the .Mac tab on Apple's site and it said "Temporarily unavailable."
 
Mine has been down for at least an hour now, and was offline for a good hour+ yesterday. It's getting really annoying, especially when I depend on it as my primary e-mail address.
 
Weird, Mail.app didn't do it's usual thing where it tells me that the IMAP server or whatever is offline so I assumed that my dotmac account was working just fine and dandy... Saw this thread decided to head over to investigate webmail. Got this:

Okay.. the official .Mac will be back shortly message went up. Yet I am still able to send and receive email so they must not be doing a system wide update/maintenace... scheduled it says, I don't remember seeing a schedule for this ;)

All my .mac web pages work too.
 
meh..this annoys me. today i'm expecting a number of e-mails. and since i'm at work i don't have my mac. that means i can't access my adress book to get the e-mail adresses and mail via yahoo.
 
Read the temporarily down notice closer
