How do I change Mobile Me from .Mac to .Me on my iPhone

I just got the new iPhone 3GS, and when I synced (restored)from my old iPhone, I noticed that my Mobile Me on the iPhone has the .Mac address instead of .Me.
I think this may have something to do also with the Find Me Locator on me.com. It worked on my old iPhone for 2 days (since 3.0 came out) but on the new phone even though I've checked by settings, can get it to show my phone online at me.com.

If you are using the same Apple ID on your iPhone 5 and on your iPad, you can synch several things.  Your iTunes account can be synched so that any apps and music you purchase appears on both devices. You can synch your Safari Bookmarks and pages views on each device, which is handy if you find something on one device and then later want to find it on the other device.  Your Photostream can be synched so that photos taken on your iPhone will automatically appear on your iPad and vice versa. You can mirror text iMessages to both devices, which is kind of handy. Finally and most useful to me, you can use the Find My iPhone feature on your iPhone to find your iPad and vice versa.
My Suggestions
1. In Settings, iCloud, make sure that you are using the same iCloud account on your iPhone and on your iPad.
2. In Settings, Mail, make sure that you are using the same email account on each device.
3. In Settings, iTunes & App Stores, make sure you are using the same Apple ID. Turn on Automatic Downloads on Music, Apps, and Books (you may decide to turn one of these off if you run into space limits.)
4.In Settings, Photos and Camera, turn on My Photo Stream.
5. In Settings, iBooks, turn on Sync Bookmarks and Sync Collections.
Be Careful
You may have to tweak Facetime settings if you wish to have your iPhone call your iPad or vice versa. If you do, you'll want to have one unique element on each device, eg uncheck the phone number on your iPad, and uncheck a secondary email address on the iPhone. You may not want to do this, so might not be an issue.
Please feel free to correct me if any of this is in error or is unclear.  I am glad to share my experiences and happy to hear back from the community.

  • How do I change my Ipod from mac to windows format??

    How do I change my Ipod from mac to windows format?? My Imac is not working at the moment, but I want to use my Ipod on my PC. How do I get my Ipod(mac formated) to get work on my PC??

    Use iTunes on the PC to restore the iPod, or install XPlay on the PC without changing the format. Restoring the iPod will erase everything on it.

  • How can I change the default "from" email account on my iPad/iPhone in IOS 8.2?

    I currently use my phone & pad for business and personal use.  My emails should come from my business account but they're coming from my Yahoo account.  How can I change it without having to manually change each email?  I've checked online but I don't see settings/mail,contacts,calendars/default account in this new revision of software.
    Thanks!

    Hi bschmidt0726,
    Go to "Setting"; scroll down to the 4th box for "iCloud"; You need to turn on you "Mail" option in the "iCloud" settings.
    Then,
    Go into "Settings", scroll down to "Mail, Contacts, Calendars"; on the left panel, scroll down to the 4th box; there you'll find the "Default Account" settings.

    They haven't been checked as Solved, it's an option for you to choose one if the answer has solved your problem. You can mark one answer as Solved, and two as helpful. Only you, as the originator of the topic, can see these buttons.
    Sorry for the goofed answer. Most people are looking to set the margins and I looked over that you were interested in the tabs.
    To save tabs in fixed positions that will appear with every new document, you must modify the default template. You can't open the template from the desktop. If you do, it will open as a standard document. You must open it from the Open dialogue box from within Word. With Word in the foreground, press Command+O and navigate to:
    /Users/your_account/Library/Application Support/Microsoft/Office/User Templates/
    Open the file Normal.dotm
    Set your tabs and save the file. Close the template. All new documents will now open with those preset tabs.

    In AppStore.nl, how can I change the language from Dutch to English ?

    Hi ...
    Click the round flag icon bottom right corner of the App Store window to change the country.
    FYI ..
    "Although you can browse the iTunes Store in any country without being signed in, you can only purchase content from the iTunes Store for your own country. This is enforced via the billing address associated with your credit card or other payment method that you use with the iTunes Store, rather than your actual geographic location."
    From here >  The Complete Guide to Using the iTunes Store | iLounge Article
    Billing policy is the same for the iTunes and well as the Mac App Store.

  • How do you stop mobile sites from loading in safari automatically on my iPad? I can't log into mobile me because of this.

    How do you stop mobile sites from loading in safari automatically on my iPad? I can't log into mobile me because of this.

    The me.com website is not designed for or intended to be accessed by iOS devices. Apple provides support in iOS or seperate Apps for accessing all aspects of MobileMe except for the Accounts section.
    Use MobielMe as intended and you'll have no problems.
    See: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1673
    Even if you use a different browser to get access to me.com on iOS, you'll find most of it is unusable.
    Other websites that present you with the mobile version have been programmed to do so by their developers. They specifically look for users accessing from 'mobile' devices and switch to the mobile site. Many such sites provide a link to go back to the 'full' site, if not, there's not a lot you can do except use a browser that can pretend not to be a mobile browser.

    Very cumbersome.

    Make a copy first.
    In Acrobat use the Crop tool to crop half the width. (Pages > Crop Pages.)
    For 11x17 to 8.5 x11  crop all even pages 8.5 left, all odd pages 8.5 right.
