MobileMe Finally Online?

for those of you who missed it earlier, this release has been an

Given that perfectly functioning final 2.0 software for the phone and touch are leaked, out there and working for many many people - the ONLY reason we're not seing them via normal updates via iTunes is this monumental immobile-me transfer fail.

Seriously - would you buy a server and server OS from this company?

Odd...

Logged into .Me - synced everything. Logged out - Logged back in, .Me thought i was synching a new machine. Hmmm...

'A computer named "MacBook - xxxxxxx" is already registered with the MobileMe synchronization server."

"If you use the same name for two different computers you may lose your synchronized information on all registered computers and devices.

You can safely reuse a previously registered name if you are sure it is the only computer now using this name under your MobileMe account."

Are we seriously posting technical issues for a service that hasn't even gone live yet? Why don't we wait and see what happens?
 
I've been saying for about 2 years that Apple's quality is going into the toilet. Sloppy buggy launches, to say nothing of hardware issues.

I am an Apple person, and I spoke about this because I want Apple to improve their quality. Innovation without quality is not success.

Now this happens. Sadly, this is typical for Apple nowadays.

But it's big, public, and Apple can't hide the repairs in their genius bar.

Yes, I want my mobileme. But honestly, I am glad Apple is getting egg on their face for this.

Now, maybe, just maybe, senior management at Apple will realize what people like myself have known for some time now--Apple has a serious QA problem.
 
alright it's fully working or "perfect"..just logged on, synced my Imac and MBA, when I make a change on the calendar on mobileme or my computer, it changes my calendar in all of them...it's AWESOME!! lets see how long the site stays up...at least it worked for me and everything is sync...tomorrow the iphone, I'm off to bed!!

I agree with a lot of that, but I would hardly anyone out there knows this isn't working. All people know is the iPhone comes out tomorrow.

MobileMe, if working by tomorrow morning, will be just another forgettable delay in the long run.

Have you ever updated a web application? Have you ever upgraded an application for 10,000 users? Have you ever migrated 100,000 users in LDAP? no? well try doing this for 12,341,043 users oh and do it in 12 hours. Try these things, then come talk trash.

So yes, I would buy a sever and server OS from Apple, and I have.
 
Logged in from the UK... all seems to be working fine... maybe they are opening it up along the date line?

Um, I have. And it didn't go this badly, ever. BUT **** happens. Apple ran into a snafu. -shrugs- It DOES happen, just not often.
