I can only imagine the state of things at apple.

Heads getting cut off.
People getting fired.

Is it possible that MobileMe is broken and the engineers have given up?

I wonder if they'll replace MobileMe with DotMac. For all DotMac's problems, it worked about 90% of the time.

 

[tourbus]

Same for me, should just work with the first part of your e-mail but it's not working at all right now.

Some for me. It just works on my iPhone 2.0 (create a new mail account based on mobileme)

Well it appears that Apple has even more of a reason for Windows users to switch to Safari:

Everyone calm down!

Ok, now I'm out too. Booted back to www.apple.com/mobileme.

And it's down again...

WTF is going on in Cupertino?

People are going to be fired.

VERY dumb question I'm about to ask, I know but I'm a former .Mac member and I can't even log into MobileMe..keeps giving me invalid username or password, so my question is...is the username "username@mac.com, username@me.com, or just username"? Dumb I know.

username, not username@me.com

 

[Niiro13]

me.com is taken down for the MobileMe page we've seen all day XD.

 

[rablat]

This is so ridiculous.
i am done with it for a while.
I'll check it out in a few days or so. Maybe it will eventually work.

 

[crazedbytheheat]

Up again? I'm able to get in right now, although it's *really* slow.

Spoke too soon - back down. Up / down / up / down. At least I can buy apps.

Oh My God! That's like a sick Apple joke!

I doubt they care too much. They've had dotmac subscribers who continue to support a service that is actually less reliable than free services for a long time.

They'd be more worried if they were losing ad-revenue (a la Gmail, Hotmail). Then you'd see an impetus to get it up!

 

[t0mat0]

i'm 15 and i have a credit card, but i'm not going to take a chance that i'll forget to cancel the subscription within 60 days, then i'll get charged a hundred bucks. that's just silly. i just want to test it out!

Then don't forget!

 

[blurredline]

He/she shouldn't have to. A free trial should be a free trial. Plain and simple. If people like it, they'll buy it. Just my opinion...

Oh I completely agree. Trust me, I know. I have a hold on the funds for MobileMe on my credit card right now from when I signed up for the free trial this morning. I talked to one of the online chat reps though and she said it's just a hold to verify the funds and would be taken off within 24-48 hours.

HAHAHAHAHA. This is my favorite Apple day ever!
It's definitely gone again.

It's becoming pretty funny, all right. Just glad I don't depend on my mac.com email for anything important!

 

[phalewhale]

were back to no mobile me AGAIN !!!!

Chill dude... Jee Whiz! How many more people are gonna complain that it's not working?

It's a new service, and they're being inundated with requests judging by responses and posts on this forum alone.

Relax and go make yourself a camomile tea or something

 

[pianoplayer1]

wow, alright lets keep waiting

No... Steve is throwing chairs like Steve Ballmer

 

[ditzy]

I've downloaded mobile me to system preferences but for some reason it logged me off and now can't log back on. I'm using the right user name and password. It lets me log into mobile me on the internet when it is working. Just not through system preferences.
Is this happening to any one else if not how do I log back in?

 

[Watabou]

Wow the 17 year old certainly has strong language. Anyways you are a minor and that's what you have parents for.

Haha. Strong language. Haha. Please tell me this was sarcasm.

And phakebrill. That's exactly how I feel. This is a FREE trial.

 

[dissdnt]

lol it must be so funny at Apple right now.

"K ready, i'm gonna make it live.. .. okay it's live."

FLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD

"whooaaa... okay i see one of the problems in line 1001231231, taking it down..."

hehe

 

[sanford]

I don't have firmware 2.0 yet (iPod Touch owner). In Mail, I don't get notifications for new mail unless I manually tell it to get new mail or set it to check mail every so many minutes. Then, when it checks, it pulls them down from the server. I'm definitely not getting push on my Mac right now.

I don't think it will push to a Mac. (Or PC mail client, for that matter.) I could be wrong. I thought push was for iPhones only. (and iPod Touch on WiFi, of course)

 

[carve]

Who cares about me? No one cares about me. I care about 2.0. Not me. just kidding guys
