I recently made a new @me.com e-mail addy with the launch of iCloud. iChat doesn't seem to accept my username or password. Any way around this?
Got a tip for us?

Use @me.com on iChat?

Checkout Apples Web Page for iChat. Looks like iCloud accounts should work. I converted from MobileMe so was not sure about new iCloud users.

Solved, I think
I think I figured it out.
I moved from MobileMe to iCloud the other day and noticed tonight that iChat wasn't letting me log in anymore.
I deleted and then recreated the account in iChat preferences, which consisted of all of about ten seconds to type in my username and password again.
Works just fine now.
