Email to idisk

How do I send an email to my idisk? Thanks
joseas

I'm wondering this as well. QuickOffice for iPhone just added a feature where you register your email address in the app and then forward emails with attachments to a set Quickoffice email address. It recognizes the message as from the email you registered and makes the attachment available for download into QuickOffice. This workaround is necessary because you can't save email attachments onto your iPhone for access from other apps. Assuming that functionality isn't coming, I would like it if I could email an attachment to iDisk in the same way I just described because QuickOffice and many other apps can open documents from iDisk and it's not going to another company's server (yes .... I know that Apple is "another" company so please save the pearls of wisdom on that one).
All of this just because we can't open email attachments from apps other than Mail.

Open An emailed Excel file in Numbers?

Can I open an emailed Excel or Word file in Numbers or Pages, respectively? It's like the doc are locked in separate parts of my iPad and I can't get to them unless they're in iDisk. But can you email into iDisk?
I think you have drag a file into iDisk fro a computer and the it's available to your devices or other Macs on MobileMe and I assume iCloud.
So how do I work on/with files that are emailed to me on iPad?

I've done some homework and it seems you can't open an email attachment with Numbers or Pages on the iPad as short sighted as this sounds, but Apple Mail and it's iworks iPad apps don't integrate like this.
BUT DataViz's Documents To Go Premium ($19.95) does! It also supports cloud computing. So you can access and sync to iDisk and CloudBox among others. And it's spreadsheet is more sophisticated than Numbers. I wish I hadn't bought Numbers now. DTG's Word is pretty good too. But I really like Page's templates and integration with your photos so Pages is a keeper.
DTG is a suite so it's word processor and spreadsheet and powerpoint are all built in.
What I'm really surprised about is tha Microsoft doesn't have a ported version of Office. I haven't tried it's watered down version, but here it's light weight and not a good choice.
So as of now, it seems the best out there is DTG. As a loyal Apple user I wish Numbers was more full featured, nut it's not. So DTG it will be for the time being.

Changing from .mac to another server-how to make sure I keep all my emails?

Sorry if this has been asked before--I couldn't find it in recent threads--,
Here is my situation: I already have free email service from another server (my DSL provider) but I have kept paying for the .mac email and idisk storage for two years simply because I thought I was going to do great things, I guess.
I now realize I am too busy to learn enough about setting up my own webpage or whatever, so want to consolidate and save money. I am going to not resubscribe when next year's payment comes due next month, but in the meanwhile, I need to know:
Should I forward any or all of my (opened and read) mail to my new email/server? Or is it all stored on my iMac anyway, and so only need to send my friends an email telling them of the new address...? I obviously don't want to lose anything.
Please advise. Thank you in advance for any help you can give.

Your DSL provider probably does not provide/support an IMAP account - more than likely it is a POP account so there is no need to forward all messages from your .Mac account's Inbox mailbox to your DSL provider's email account which probably much has less server storage space available.
If you have been accessing your account as a .Mac type account (which is really an IMAP account and behaves in the same way), you need to transfer all messages in the account's Inbox mailbox to a user created "On My Mac" location mailbox before the account expires.
This will store the transferred messages locally on the hard drive and remove the messages from the server at the same time.
I recommend using the Copy To command vs the Move To command in case something goes wrong with the process.
At the menu bar, go to Mailbox and select New Mailbox.
Select "On My Mac" as the location if not already selected, enter a name for the mailbox and select OK to create the mailbox.
Select a message in the message list for the account's Inbox mailbox and at the menu bar, go to Edit > Select All to highlight/select all messages in the account's Inbox mailbox.
At the menu bar, go to Message > Copy To and select the user created "On My Mac" location mailbox.
This will copy all messages from the server to the user created mailbox. When completed and after confirming all messages were successfully copied to the mailbox, you can delete all messages from the server or leave as is. When the account expires, all messages available on the server will be deleted.
If you are also saving sent messages on the server, you need to do the same with all sent messages stored on the server and with any other messages stored on the server that you want/need to keep such as and Drafts.
I would send an email to all contacts in your Address Book informing them of your email address change now and to start using your new email address right away. This way, you will have fewer messages to transfer from the account's Inbox to the user created "On My Mac" location mailbox.
If you have been accessing your .Mac account as a POP account, you need to do the same with all messages in the account's Inbox and Sent mailbox before deleting the account. When deleting an account with Mail, the account named folder and all associated account mailboxes are also deleted.

HT4929 moving all email accounts to icloud

I currently have a master account. I have 5 email accounts with different names. How do I get all of the email accounts to move to iCloud?

The information which I have indicates (as does my subscription rate) that I have an individual account:
Account Details
Account Type
Individual
Subscription Start Date
Dec 25, 2010
Subscription End Date
Jun 30, 2012
Email-only Accounts
alinklater (Remove Account)
elinklater (Migrated to iCloud)
jlinklater88 (Remove Account)
vorsa (Remove Account)
Data Transfer
200 GB per month (Details)
As you can see, one offspring (currently studying in Italy) has managed to move to iCloud but I don't know how to move the other email only accounts.
I only use .Mac / mobile me / iCloud for email and iDisk for back up. If this whole process is not simple it might be better to save the subscription and go elsewhere.

Publishing to .mac - how many domains can i have?

ok.
I have a .mac account.
I have a domain name outside of .mac.
I have used iWeb and have published my pages to .mac.
My domain name, let's call it myname.com, is pointed to my .mac domain.
So instead of going to web.mac.com/myname, it goes to myname.com
Wonderful.
I have used iWeb to easily design my personal webpage.
I can use myname.com and no one has to bother with the big, long hard to remember .mac domain.
Exactly what I wanted.
Now:
I bought 2 more domain names.
One is for my art project.
One is for my writing project.
I want to use the same easy process detailed above:
Use iWeb to design and publish each one to their designated domain names (like one would use a dreamweaver type program)
The Problem:
The .mac account seems to only want to publish to ONE designated domain name.
It seems that .mac only HOSTS ONE with the annual membership.
I don't want to have my personal site, my art project, and my writing project to be linked.
I want them to be THREE TOTALLY SEPARATE WEBSITES with THREE TOTALLY DIFFERENT DOMAIN NAMES. I would like to pay apple to host all three websites. Let's call them:
1) myname.com
2) artsite.com
3) writingsite.com
I've read many posts on this forum and noticed that many people have had this same issue but haven't really had their question answered.
I UPGRADED my membership to a FAMILY PACK thinking this would resolve my issue - I get 4 more accounts with .mac and I can HOST AND PUBLISH up to 4 more totally separate websites by paying the additional $80/year.
I tried this and when I log out of my main mother account that holds myname.com
and i log into my sub-account that holds artsite.com,
it does not seem that I can HOST AND PUBLISH to a BRAND NEW .mac domain.
it seems the family pack does nothing but give you extra email and iDisk storage, etc.
it seems to NOT offer an additional HOSTING AND PUBLISHING feature.
My QUESTION:
Does anyone know if it is possible to have a .mac account OR have a .mac upgraded family pack
that will allow me to host and publish to three totally different unrelated websites?
the iwebsites program only allows you to keep the iweb designs in separate folders - THIS IS NOT MY PROBLEM. I want to use iweb to design my websites (the way one would use dreamweaver, and use my .mac account to host the 3 separate websites).
Is this possible?

You can host only ONE domain at dotMac.
As a matter of fact, iWeb is irrelevant in this matter. You can create your own pages in any HTML editor and dotMac will happily serve them. With or without a domain.
I know that iWeb is irrelevant, however I am choosing to use it to design my webpages and would like to use it to publish to several different domain names that i want to have hosted through .mac
If you bought more domains then follow the advice you quoted.
which advice i quoted?
By +Your hosting company+ is meant the company where you purchased your domains. In your case Network Solutions.
I have forwarding too (at [DynDNS|http://www.dyndns.com>). I forward to any page I want. If a webpage is visible in a browser window you can forward to it. With or without masking.
No where on Network Solutions does it give me the option to use web forwarding or web masking in my account options. Apparently this is because I do not pay for hosting. I only have paid for the domain name.
When you have a family pack you have 5 dotMac accounts. Each can be used to host a domain. At least that's what I understand from the dotMac Help.
I refer to the dotMac forum (again) for further help.
I have posted here as well as you suggested and I have had zero posts or replies, but I do appreciate you noting to do so. Hopefully someone will know!
I would say that Apple should not mention the relation between iWeb and Personal Domain and just say that the Domain points to the /iDisk/Web/Sites folder and that there should at least be an index.html file present.
But then, I'm not marketing the stuff.
True, but I'm not confused about how iWeb relates. I'm only using it because I'm choosing to. I can get dreamweaver but don't really care to install it since iWeb can do what i need.

IWeb, .Mac family pack and 2 computers

Currently I have a single .Mac account and am using iWeb. My hubby wants his own iWeb site on his own machine so should I upgrade to the family pack on .Mac or get him his own .Mac account? If we go with the family pack does everything need to be done on 1 machine?
Thanks!

Apple wrote:
The Family Pack includes a master account, with everything in the Basic Membership, including 10GB of online storage and 100GB of monthly data transfer, plus four sub-accounts for a total of five .Mac accounts. Each sub-account gets its own email address, iDisk folder, 2.5GB of email and file storage, and 25GB of monthly data transfer. And there’s a shared iDisk folder just for the family. The master account administers the sub-accounts, and the membership can be renewed only through the master account.
Differences between getting 2 .Mac or Family Pack:
1. Price: 10 $ a year (Family is cheaper)
2. If one day another family member wants to have its own website you're better off in having the Family Pack
What's the same in getting one or the other?
1. No matter which one you choose you could have the sites on separate computers and publish from separate computers as everyone would have it's own access data
2. As I understand it: Family Pack Total storage 10 GB (+4*2,5GB) = 20GB and 2 .Mac accounts storage 20 GB
Regards,
Cédric
As mentioned by Chuck you can use the same account. As long as your sites are named differently. The only problem is that when you enter web.mac.com/username/ you will get to the last published site (yours or your sons) unless you replace the index.html file every time you publish. You could also both have a Site named with the same name (let's say Index) at first place in your iWebs followed by the personal sites. The Index site will be identical in both iWeb and contain just an index so people can choose which site to look at yours or yours sons (however sons mostly want only their own stuff... I think... And don't want friends looking at the father's site or so...). That way there's no problem putting in web.mac.com/username/ people would always see the same site no matter who published last

Mail does not work properly with gmail

Hi everyone. I am a very recent switcher and the switching process was great and extremely easy, but there has only been one problem that I can't seem to solve. Getting Gmail to work with Apple Mail. I followed all the steps on gmail's website on, how to set up gmail for POP, and how to configure Apple Mail to work with gmail, but I still can't get it to download all my emails. It only downloads some old emails, marks them all as unread, and then doesn't act like I have any other emails(which I do). Under system preferences, I have the account type labeled as POP, the incoming mail server set to pop.gmail.com, my username and password set, and the smtp box set to smtp.gmail.com. Under server settings I have the server port at 587, the ssl box checked and the outgoing mail server as stmp.gmail, like I said before. Under the advanced tab of the accounts section of apple mail preferences, I have the account enable box checked, the include when automatically checking for new mail box checked, and down at the bottom, I have the port set at 995 with the ssl box checked. In gmail, under my forwarding and POP settings, I have it set, under the POP download section to: Enable POP for all mail(even mail that's already been downloaded). Also, the status is set to "POP is enabled for all mail that has arrived since 10/13/05(which was when i first got my gmail account). Like I said before, Apple Mail at first starting downloading all the mail in my gmail account and then stopped after about 1000 to 2000 messages which only got it to about mid-2006 or earlier. Yes, I've run software update recently, too. Does anyone know why it would not dowload the rest of my mail? All help is very greaty appreciated. Thanks.

I just put my gmail account in Apple Mail and it works fine - even transferring my old gmail messages. Maybe your problem is STORAGE - see this from Mail Help:
About .Mac Mail
.Mac Mail works with existing email clients like Mac OS X Mail, Outlook Express, and Netscape Communicator.
You can also check email when you're away from your own computer. All you need is a computer with an Internet connection and a supported web browser to check your .Mac Mail. To access .Mac Mail on the web using Mac OS X version 10.3 or later, use Safari 1.2 or later or Firefox 1.0.1 or later. If you're using Microsoft Windows XP, use Firefox 1.0.1 or later or Internet Explorer 6 or later.
Use POP or IMAP protocol to suit your working style and set up automatic email forwarding or replies.
Your email address is your .Mac member name followed by @mac.com, and the password for accessing email is the same as your member password.
Note: AOL recently added support for IMAP, so you can now read your AOL mail using Mac OS X Mail. You cannot use AOL's email program to read .Mac Mail messages directly, but you can set up your .Mac Mail account to forward email to your AOL account.
.Mac comes with 1 gigabyte (GB) of combined email and iDisk storage. .Mac trial members and email-only accounts get 50 megabytes (MB) of storage; Family Pack sub-accounts get 256 MB. You can designate storage space to your .Mac Mail account and your iDisk. For example, if you need more storage space for your email messages, you can set your .Mac Mail storage capacity to 800 MB and reserve 224 MB of storage for your iDisk. You can also increase your combined email and iDisk storage to a total of 2 GB or 4 GB by purchasing more storage. (If you have a trial account, email-only account, or Family Pack sub-account, you cannot increase your storage amount.)
Your .Mac Mail storage is automatically set to 512 MB unless you change it. You can't assign less than 15 MB of storage to your .Mac Mail account.
.Mac comes with 10 GB of data transfer per month and a 10 MB maximum message size. You can increase your monthly data transfer limit up to 250 GB per month by adding more storage space to your .Mac account. You can also purchase up to 10 additional email accounts. (Email-only accounts get 50 MB of storage space but no additional .Mac services, and Family Pack sub-accounts get 256 MB of storage space, but cannot purchase additional email accounts.)
If I had 2000 emails on my computer I would shut it down and never turn it on again.

Factory restore and Pages...

I want to perform a factory reset on my iPad and then restore from my last iTunes backup. But I'm worried about the 100+ documents I've created in my Pages app.
Does a regular iTunes sync save all my Pages docs to my iTunes Backup? Or do I have to manually save them all via email, iWork, iDisk, or filesharing?
If there's a way to save all 100+ files to my MacBook pro drive all at once (rather than one by one) I'd love to know how.
Thanks in advance!

HI Enio,
Hopefully someone will correct me on this but at the moment the only way I can see to save your documents is via e-mail, share on iWork, send to iTunes, copy to iDisk, or copy to WebDAV one at a time.
It would be nice for Apple to add a "Save All" to the dialog window in the My Documents view.
When you sync your iPad, select the Apps tab. Under "Pages Documents" you can "Save to" or "Add" a document from your computer.

Mail folders in Library are a Mess!

1) I have a G5 and a G4 laptop both with the same Mail POP accounts set up in Mac Mail of each computer. The only way I have found to sync the two is manually (I do have .mac I don't use it as I have never figured out the syncing) - I go through the same manual process with regular folders as well as with mailboxes in the Library folder under Mail.
2) I literally transfer the .emix messages from one computer to another and checking the dates they were created helps me to identify which ones I move.
3) I keep track of all of this in my head and it has basically all worked up until recently when it seems to be getting the better of me. When I rebuild my mailboxes on the laptop they no longer seem to contain all the messages I need or they appear but say "download from server"
4) Also, when I push the Sent Mail airplane icon on the G5, it takes about 3 minutes for my messages to appear and I have 29, 714. What I don't understand is where they are stored. The ones which appear in the mail Application I cannot find as .emix messages. And in the Mail folder(in Library) in SENT in Messages it says there are 118, 398. So why can't I see all these in the Mail app.
5) My question is - what do I do now and how do I sync in the future. Would Smart Mailboxes help me - I can't figure out how?
6) And last - I have 4 duplicates of each message - so how do I get rid of these (maybe this why I have 118,000) . I have Duplicate annihilator and it doesn't work - I think it would take 3 weeks for it to go through them all..
Any help would be much appreciated...

1) In my desktop Mail app I have 3 pop accounts set up and including my .mac account which is set up as a POP - does this make any sense? I want all 3 of these accounts synced - is this possible?
You cannot sync POP account mailboxes with the server. Received messages with a POP account are downloaded from the server by the email client used to access the account. The account settings in Mail and with other email clients such as the Mail.app provide for removing received messages from the server when downloaded but the account's Inbox mailbox in Mail or with any email client is not and cannot be synchronized with the server. Synchronization with the server is available with a .Mac type or IMAP account with Mail or as an IMAP account with other email clients.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PostOfficeProtocol
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IMAP
To utilize the IMAP account sync function with the server requires accessing your .Mac account as either a .Mac type account or as an IMAP account with Mail. To change the account type for the account will require deleting and then recreating the account in Mail selecting .Mac or IMAP as the account type when recreating the account.
Before deleting the account, create an "On My Mac" location mailbox in Mail - one to be used for the account's Inbox messages and one for the account's Sent messages. At the menu bar go to Mailbox and select New Mailbox. Since you are accessing POP accounts only with Mail at the present time, "On My Mac" will be the only location choice available. Enter a name for the mailbox and select OK. Repeat for the additional mailbox or mailboxes.
Transfer/move messages from your .Mac account's Inbox mailbox to the user created mailbox designated for the account's Inbox messages and do the same for the account's Sent messages.
When deleting an account with Mail, the account's mailboxes in Mail are also deleted at the time.
2) When I turn on the Sync with mac options - it works for my address book but not for my mail accounts?
Don't confuse the two sync functions - really 3 different sync functions available with a .Mac account.
1) .Mac or IMAP account access with Mail and/or with IMAP account access with other email clients such as Mail on your Mac or on a different computer.
2) Syncing Bookmarks, Calendars, Contacts, Keychains, Mail Accounts (Mail account information only) and Mail rules, signatures and smart mailboxes. This provides for keeping the same information available and kept synchronized with multiple Macs. I also have an old TiBook G4 and all this information is kept synchronized for me on both Macs.
3) Keeping iDisk storage information synchronized.
All 3 are different and separate functions.
3) And what I don't understand is that nowhere does it say it will sync my folders/mailboxes - simply my account settings, rules etc...
True because what is says is all that it does. You cannot keep the mailboxes for different email accounts or user created "On My Mac" location mailboxes in Mail (which are stored locally on the hard drive) kept synchronized with the .Mac account server. You can keep .Mac account server stored mailboxes synchronized with the server only.
4) I bought SyncTogether which is a syncing software only to realize that it wouldn't sync my MAIL FOLDERS/MAILBOXES ( like SENT MAIL and the dozen or other folders I have) - it does the same as .mac sync and syncs simply the settings and accounts and smart mailboxes which I don't understand how to use...
Sounds like you wasted money on software for features included with a .Mac account.
5) I separate all my incoming mail into folders/mailboxes and then either have rules sort it or sort it myself..I need my mailboxes and I need to be able to access them from both my macs...I never use the online .mac mail - I just use it from my desktop -
When accessing a .Mac account as a .Mac type or IMAP account with Mail, you can also create server stored mailboxes for the account with Mail. When creating a new mailbox with Mail, you will also have the account name to choose from as a location choice (in addition to "On My Mac") when creating a mailbox. You can choose .Mac account location (server stored) mailboxes for your rule criteria.
You can also move/transfer existing "On My Mac" location mailboxes to the server.
After deleting and then recreating your .Mac account as a .Mac or IMAP account with Mail, you will also have a .Mac account icon in the mailboxes drawer. This is for server stored mailboxes with the exception of the account's server stored Inbox mailbox which will be located and remains under Inbox in the mailboxes drawer.
When creating a server stored mailbox for your .Mac account, it will be created and located under your .Mac account named icon in the mailboxes drawer. You can select/drag an existing user created "On My Mac" location mailbox under your .Mac account named icon in the mailboxes drawer which will copy the mailbox and contents within to the server.
All account mailboxes under your .Mac account icon in the mailboxes drawer in addition to the account's Inbox mailbox under Inbox in the mailboxes drawer will be available and kept synchronized automatically with Mail on both Macs and when accessing the account as an IMAP account with another email client on your Mac or on a different computer.
I access my .Mac account as a .Mac type account with Mail on my Mac and as an IMAP account with Outlook Express on my PC notebook running Windows XP at work. All server stored account mailboxes including any user created server stored mailboxes created with Mail or with OE are available and kept synchronized automatically with both email clients and all server stored mailboxes are also available when accessing the account via webmail using a browser. Any server stored mailboxes created via webmail access will also be available with Mail.
5A) Should I be creating Smartmailboxes instead of Mailboxes? From what I could understand, this won't really help me as it just virtual.
Smart Mailboxes will not help in this regard. Smart Mailboxes are virtual mailboxes only but any new Smart Mailbox created with Mail on one Mac will also be available with Mail on the other Mac automatically as part of the .Mac sync function for Mail Rules, Signatures and Smart Mailboxes.
6) and last - how do I upload to my .mac account? Is syncing through .mac different than Idisk - where does Idisk come in?
First part of this question already answered - select and drag an existing "On My Mac" location mailbox to/under your .Mac account named icon in the mailboxes drawer which will copy the mailbox and messages within to the server.
Think of iDisk as a separate server stored hard drive which includes .Mac account server stored mailboxes and messages which go against your total available iDisk storage space. Check .Mac account Help on the server when logged in to your .Mac account via webmail access using a browser or search the Help function locally on your hard drive.
7) Thought I was finished but - one more question - .mac sync only has a certain amount of storage on it - is the only way I can have all my stuff in sync to spend lots of money on more storage space...I have thousands of messages in my mailboxes...so what do I have to archive those somewhere? And how do I do it?
A .Mac email account has a default amount of server storage space allocated which you can change/adjust. You have 1 GB total iDisk server storage space available to you as part of a .Mac account which includes email account storage.
I have 120 MB of storage space allocated to my .Mac account but I can allocate more or less as I need and see fit but this goes against your total 1 GB of total iDisk storage space available.
Since I have 120 MB allocated to my .Mac account, this leaves me 880 MB of iDisk storage space available for other such as for Apple's Backup software to keep backup data stored on the server, iWeb for iWeb created websites and for your .Mac account Public folder which you can use to place large files, etc. for others to access and download which are too large to send via email.
You probably don't need to store every single message that you received and sent not deleted on the server so at some point you may need to decide which messages need to remain on the server and if you want to keep all messages on the server, you will need to purchase additional .Mac server storage space when you exceed 1 GB total for everything stored on your iDisk combined.
When I reach my allocated 120 MB, I transfer received messages that I want to keep but no longer need on the server from the account's Inbox mailbox to a user created "On My Mac" location mailbox. This process stores the transferred messages locally on the hard drive AND also removes the messages from the server at the same time.
Log in to your .Mac account via Safari and check your .Mac account preferences there. I believe it is under the same area as your billing information, etc. where you can adjust your total 1 GB iDisk storage space between email and iDisk up or down.

HT1338 intel core duo / can't migrate to icloud?

Hi. I would like some help in clarifying please. I have an older Macbook with an Intel Core Duo running Snow Leopard. I can't upgrade to Lion. I have used my .mac account/Mobileme for years primarily for email purposes, idisk, and the gallery (I understand the idisk and gallery are being discontinued). I'm trying to understand whether I can migrate to icloud and/or whether I really need it. I don't have any other devices that I need to sync with. I've already copied my idisk onto my hard drive and I'm not too worried about the gallery because I have my photos and movies stored elsewhere.
Questions:
1. Do I need to migrate to icloud in order to keep my @mac and @me email addresses?
2. Will the @mac email address be discontinued after June 30 (assuming I've migrated to icloud)?
3. Is it physically possible for me to migrate to icloud if I am using Snow Leopard? If so, do I follow the steps as outlined on the main migration page (i.e. acknowledge that I'm using the required software)?
I believe there may be a workaround to #3 but am not sure if that's what I'm looking for. Thank you for your help.
Dave

Hi Dave,
Questions:
1. Do I need to migrate to icloud in order to keep my @mac and @me email addresses?
2. Will the @mac email address be discontinued after June 30 (assuming I've migrated to icloud)?
3. Is it physically possible for me to migrate to icloud if I am using Snow Leopard? If so, do I follow the steps as outlined on the main migration page (i.e. acknowledge that I'm using the required software)?
Answers:
1. Yes (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4597). MobileMe accounts must be migrated before the end of MobileMe otherwise they end along with the service.
2. No. (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4597)
3. I haven't done it recently but yes.
-- You will need to update the mail server settings in your Mail program once the migration is complete as iCloud uses a different set of mail servers than MobileMe: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4864.
Cheers.

Cannot sign with my MobileMe ID in ICloud (PC software), solution?

cannot sign with my MobileMe ID in ICloud (PC software), solution?

Sorry for not explaining properly.
I use two Apple IDs, one to use Apple store and another MobileMe to access email and iDisk.
When I upgrade to IOS 5, tried to keep the same configuration, which according to Apple support is possible.
I have do migrated from MobileMe to icloud, and have use icloud constantly in browser.
Initially, I was surprised that despite having installed ICloudControlPanel could not log it, but as I was using icloud with browser, was satisfactory.
Yesterday, I try logon with my Apple ID (used in Store) in ICloudControlPanel, and to my surprise I can sign and all interface of software was avaliable. So I tried to log with MobileMe account in ICloudControlPanel, and I have same problem, dont sign.
Thanks for any help, and sorry for the mistakes in English.

HT2623 Why was I forced to move to iCloud, when MobileMe has not been removed?

Why was I prompted to move to iCloud when MobileMe is still functioning and asking me to subscribe to the site? Am I the only one who is confused?
Etela

MobileMe isn't still functioning - it's completely closed. You should go to System Preferences>MobileMe>iDisk and stop iDisk syncing if it is running; go to the sync pane and stop any syncing, then go to the Account pane and sign out, otherwise you will get these error messages.
If you have not migrated your MobileMe account to iCloud it is now too late to do so, and the entire contents of the account have been deleted, emails and iDisk included.
Your signature says you have 10.6.2 - is this correct? You cannot access iCloud on Snow Leopard - Lion 10.7.2 is the minimum requirement.

Messages sent with .MAC never arrive

Over the past couple months i have noticed that people arenot receiving email that i have sent with my Email Only Account. I basically created another email only account in addition to my main .MAC account and notice that when i send email from that account it never arrives to the appropriate recipient. Does anyone have any thoughts why this may be happening? I have checked "Sent" mail and the message is in that folder. Weird.

Hello,
I have my normal .MAC account. If you go to the Home page and look at the Account Setting you have the option to add an "Email Only Account" for $10 which will only allow that user email, not iDisk, etc. It's this account that is having issues when email is sent. Does that help?

Not sure whats going on?

I am getting a message one of mail accounts are full but it is no way near full. It has like 20 emails in it and no attachments etc. I even got suckered in to buying moe space in some hope that it would fix the problem but it still is showing a message of being 99% full or just full.
I tried to call and email my problem. MACs answer is to buy more space! This is so unfair becasue now I am missing emails and Apple is not being very helpful.
Any words of wisdom would be greatly appreciated.
Thank You

.Mac comes with 1 gigabyte (GB) of combined email and iDisk storage.
You can designate storage space to your .Mac Mail account and your iDisk. For example, if you need more storage space for your email messages, you can set your .Mac Mail storage capacity to 800 MB and reserve 224 MB of storage for your iDisk.
You can't assign less than 15 MB of storage to your .Mac Mail account or iDisk. Your storage is automatically set to 512 MB for .Mac Mail and 512 MB for iDisk unless you change it.
To share storage space between .Mac Mail and your iDisk:
* Go to www.mac.com and log in.
* Click your member name on the .Mac tab, and then confirm your login.
* Click Storage Settings on your Account Settings page.
* Choose a new storage amount from the .Mac Mail pop-up menu. The storage allocated to your personal iDisk automatically decreases or increases when you add or subtract storage from your .Mac Mail account.
* Click Save.

Posting iweb sites on a .mac family account...

I have just upgraded my .mac account to a family pack, converting my wifes email only account so she has full .mac goodies. Can we both upload separate iweb sites without overwriting each other? If so how?
Thanks in advance,
Lee

This is from the .mac help menu:
You should have separate accounts addresses
Setting up a Family Pack sub-account
If you purchased a Family Pack account, you can set up four sub-accounts. A Family Pack sub-account includes 2.5 gigabytes (GB) of combined email and iDisk storage.
Note: .Mac Family Pack sub-accounts cannot add email-only accounts or upgrade storage.
To set up a sub-account:
1. If you're not already logged in to .Mac, go to www.mac.com, and log in.
2. Click Account in the left column of the .Mac homepage, and then confirm your login.
3. Click Manage Accounts.
Note: You can manage accounts only if you have a full .Mac membership.
4. In the Family Pack Sub-accounts section, click the Set Up Account button and follow the onscreen instructions.
If you go to the .mac page and click on the help button upper right you can find other related topic.
