Podcasting after MobileMe transitions to iCloud

I plan to start my podcasts in the near future, and appreciate the information found in this community on getting started.  I plan to use my MobileMe account to host my podcasts.  What will happen to the podcasts when Apple transitions to iCloud?
Can anyone point me to information on copyrights?  For example, use of a portion of a music soundtrack in my podcast?  Reading from a published book on my podcast?
Thanks

I would advise against starting a podcast on MobileMe at this stage. As its website hosting will be terminated next June, you will only have to go through the process of hosting the feed and media files on another service and moving iTunes to it: if you don't do this your podcast would simply cease to work. Any website hosting service can host your podcasts: there's nothing special about it.
This page gives you some 'get you started' information: http://rfwilmut.net/pc
As to copyright, to use any copyrighted recording or read text from any book still in copyright would be a breach of copyright, and likely to get your podcast rejected from the Store: and might possibly leave you open to civil actions for damages. It's possible to find music which is free to use: search on 'podcast sage' in Google: but you shouldn't use normal commercially available recordings.

  • Search option missing from iWeb site after MobileMe transition

    I'm assuming this is a residual bug from the transition to MobleMe, but I've just noticed that my site published with iWeb is missing the Search box on the home page. Just curious if anyone else has had this, or anyone has found a fix.
    Tried republishing the site, but still no joy. Also tried viewing the site via the new MobleMe address as well (as opposed to old .Mac address), and it's missing there too.
    Bueller? Anyone?

    Strange, my friend on the latest Firefox could not see the search bar, but when I asked her to load into Safari, the webpage loaded up fine (on a Powerbook). I then tried to load up the page on Safari with my Powerbook, but no dice.
    I then booted up into Windows XP and tried viewing my webpage via IE 7, Firefox 3 AND Safari, and the search bar STILL does not show up. The search bar is not limited to Mac OS X and Safari (on a Mac) right?

  • After transition to iCloud from MobileMe, does MM still work on Snow Leopard Macs?

    I have an older MacBook Pro that can't be ugraded to Lion. If I transition to iCloud from my MobileMe account, will MobileMe still sync on my Snow Leopard MacBook Pro at the same time my Lion MacPro and iOS5 iPhone sync to iCloud?

    No.
    You cannot have both, only one - MM or iCloud. If you go the iCloud route, Snow is out .

  • I have one paid mobileme account, few days ago I have done transition to iCloud and all my iDisk, contact... gone. Today I tried login to iCloud application on my windows pc but can not, it said "this apple id is valid but is not iCloud account"

    I have one paid mobileme account, few days ago I have done transition to iCloud and all my iDisk, contact... gone. Today I tried login to iCloud application on my windows pc (64bit) but I can not, it said "this apple id is valid but is not iCloud account". I can login on website icloud.com but can not login into iCloud application installed on pc. What's wrong?
    I have tried another free apple ID and logged on. That's funny when I can login with free account and can not login with paid mobileme account!!!!!!

    By the way - the only reason I downloaded iCloud is because Apple deleted the backup option from iTunes.  Since iCloud doesn't work, I guess we have no way to protect our iTunes music collection.  Absolutely stupid.

  • Can't Login To iCloud on Mac - Post Mobileme transition

    Last week when all of the updates hit, I set my iMac and Macbook to use my Apple Store/iTunes ID for the iCloud and kept my MobileMe settings as-is (not knowing what all I should have done...transition tool was broken anyway). Today, I see that the MobileMe->iCloud transition process is working, so I "upgrade" my MobileMe account and started running into issues. This is where I'm at now:
    1. iPhone - iCloud settings reset to match up with my transitioned MobileMe account (it was set to my iTunes ID); all seems fine. Store settings still set to my iTunes ID per Apple's instructions for "iTunes in the Cloud".
    2. iMac - I followed the MobileMe transition instructions and ended up in the MobileMe section of preferences, which now says my MobileMe account has been upgraded to iCloud.
    3. I go to the iCloud settings and sign out of the iTunes ID I had in there from last week and attempt to login with my iCloudified MobileMe account.
    4. iCloud login says to use my MobileMe info as my primary iCloud ID, I need to delete it from my mail, calendar & contacts settings. I tried doing exactly that, but it fails each time I try.
    What gives? I thought that if we have a normal iTunes/apple store ID and a MobileMe account, we should use the iTunes one for "iTunes in the Cloud" and use our MobileMe login for the normal iCloud...at least that's how I read the Apple support docs. Do my iCloud sett

    Solved. Just an FYI, once you go through the step of deleting your MobileMe stuff from the mail, contacts, and calendar settings, reboot THEN do the iCloud login prefs page. Once I did that, all started working again.

  • HT4597 After the move to icloud, I no longer have an address book synched. Cannot find a way to add i cloud on preferences/accounts either. I'm not at all happy with this transition.

    You don't require Mountain Lion - you need Lion which has been available for almost a year.
    Unless you are running Mac OS X 10.7.2 or later (Lion) you won't be able to sync iCloud with your computer. The iClous system preferences pane does not exist in ealier versions.
    The Mac system requirements are all clearly stated on the iCloud pages, and in the support articles.

  • How to recover Contacts after MobileMe to iCloud upgrade?

    How to recover Contacts after MobileMe to iCloud upgrade?

    I assume that the regular backups of the contacts and calendar only work on a Mac
    No, you can backup contacts and calendars on a Windows PC. There are many backup options for PCs, but you would've had to set one up. Don't you backup any of the data on your PC?
    Your recommendation is that I restroe my entire iPhone from the last iTunes backup to recover these files?
    That's really your only option with no other backups available. See: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4946
    There's no guarantee that the iTunes Backup will include all your contacts, as noted in the support article above, you're supposed to maintain backups of the contacts in the contact manager you sync with.

  • HT5527 I did not move my Mobileme account to iCloud. How can I get off the iCloud mailing list?

    I did not move my Mobileme account to iCloud. How can I get off the iCloud mailing list?

    If you migrated your MobileMe account before 1 August you should have signed into System Preferences>iCloud with it, and you would be able to see your calendars, bookmarks and emails on the iCloud website. Is this the case? Did you sign into iCloud with your @me.com address?
    If you did not migrate your MobileMe account you can no longer do so.
    If you did migrate, did you do so from a full MobileMe account or from a Family Pack sub-account? the latter did not get the complimentary storage (because their iDisks were only 5GB anyway).
    If you had a full MobileMe account, check on your Mac - System Preferences>iCloud - and see whether that shows the upgrade. If it doesn't, you probably need to contact Support: if you currently happen to have AppleCare, either because you recently bought Apple hardware or have paid to extend the inititial period, you can contact them here:
    http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/
    You will need the serial number of the covered hardware.
    If you are not covered by AppleCare, then - in common with other free email services - there is no free support (MobileMe Support is no longer available) and you may be asked to pay a fee: in this case you should ask them to deal with it without cost (and hope they agree).
    Note that you haven't paid anything for your MobileMe storage since your first renewal date after 6 June 2011, and iCloud costs nothing unless you specifically choose to upgrade the storage. Note also the iCloud storage is not general file storage in the manner of the iDisk but is restricted to iOS device Backup, Mail, Photo Journal and Documents.

  • Apps don't sync across devices after I moved to iCloud.  I have 1 apple ID (from mobile me) and 1 that use for iTunes

    Apps on my various iPads  and iPhone used to sync automatically.  Whenever I used to buy an apps, it would just automatically appear in all my devices.  I'm not sure what does that, it could have been the MobileMe account, but it was working perfectly until after I moved to iCloud.  Now, apps don't sync anymore.  Calendars, mails and contacts do.  I use 1 apple ID for I cloud and 1 for iTunes because I moved mobile me account to iCloud.  Could someone please help?  This is bugging me and I searched all over the Internet but can't find answer.

    I have the exact same problem. Help!

  • Shared calendars gone after I set up iCloud

    My wife and I have a shared calendar. I moved over to the iCloud and now the shared calendar is gone. I tired to re-share the calendar from her calendar that is still on Mobile Me and it would not go through. Is it not possible to share the old MobileMe calendar with an iCLoud calendar?

    I was having the same problem as most of you.  I was not able to share my calendars after the move to iCloud from MobileMe, but my wife was.  I am not sure what caused it, whether it was because the calendars were on share with everyone before the move or not.  I did however figure out a way to solve the issue.
    1- Open iCal on your Mac, close iCal on the internet (iCloud)
    2- On your Mac choose each calendar (right click on name) and choose stop sharing
    3- On your Mac choose each calendar ( right click on name), chose sharing settings, then click on button for "only the people you invite", enter person's apple ID/email, click update.
    4- reopen iCal calendar on web
    5- Choose calendar that wasn't working, now you should have option to add people to share with, and the person you specified in step 3 will already be there.  Hit "resend calendar invitation" (it will be in blue).  The person you sent the invite to will now be able to share your calendar.
    Hope this works for all of you the way it worked for me.

  • Iweb mobileme hosting to icloud

    I realize that mobileme is offering to continue hosting my iweb site until June 2012, but I'm concerned that if I sign into iCloud that I will lose my hosting.  Has anyone found an issue with their iweb hosting after beginning to use iCloud?
    Thanks!

    Everybody says that I can still host on MobileMe until June 30, but when I try to upload anything I get a sign-in box for MobileMe.  Then when I sign in, it tells me that I've already moved to iCloud (and I have), and then I'm back to square one.  How do I UPLOAD to MobileMe until June 30th?

  • I updated my MobileMe account to iCloud, but I missed all my important emails

    I updated my MobileMe account to iCloud last week. And I can not connet to mail account for almost one week. After I change the password, it works. But I missed all my important emails? Any one can help me?

    Your signature says you are using 10.6.8 - this cannot work with iCloud. 10.7.2 is required (as you were warned during the migration process), and if your Mac has the specification for it you should consider upgrading (though be aware that old PPC programs such as Appleworks will no longer work).
    This is the situation on Snow Leopard when you have migrated from MobileMe:
    Your email, calendars, and 'Find my iPhone' will be migrated to iCloud. Contacts and Bookmarks cannot be migrated from a Snow Leopard Mac.
    Your iDisk, together with website hosting and Gallery, will continue to work as before until next June.
    Syncing of Dashboard Widgets, Dock Items and Keychains between Macs, and Mail Accounts, Mail Rules, System Preferences, Signatures & Smart Mailboxes between Macs & iOS devices, will cease altogether.
    You will be able to access email and calendars on the iCloud website at http://icloud.com provided your browser is reasonably up-to-date.
    You will not be able to sync contacts or bookmarks from a pre-Lion Mac.
    You will be able to enter the server settings for email manually in the Mail application and access your email.
    You will not be able to sync your calendars directly.
    Some people have been able to set up calendar syncing by using the method detailed here - this is an unsupported hack and may not be reliable, and may stop working at some future point.  BusyCal is an iCal-like calendar application with extra facilities: it can sync with the iCloud Calendar while running on Leopard, Snow Leopard or Lion.
    There appears to be no method of syncing contacts (though Address Book on a Mac can be synced with Google or Yahoo address books - I don't know how reliable this is).
    The requirements for upgrading to Lion are:
    Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
    2GB of memory
    OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
    7GB of available space
    Lion is $29.99 and is obtained from the Mac App Store.

  • How to move MobileMe Account to iCloud?

    I tried logging in my iCloud account and got this message:
    "Go to me.com on your computer to move your information to iCloud".   PRESS "OK"

  • I deleted my old email address and added a new one, after my iPhone died iCloud keeps popping up asking for the password of my old email address. I can't remember my password and the account is still gone, it pops up every few seconds. How can I fix this?

    I deleted my old email address and added a new one, after my iPhone died iCloud keeps popping up asking for the password of my old email address. I can't remember my password and the account is still gone, it pops up every few seconds. How can I fix this?

    If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact AppleCare(or Apple ID Support), upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
    The operator will take you through some steps you may have already tried, however they need to be sure they have exhausted all usual approaches before trying to reset your account, so you should try to be helpful and show patience with the procedure.
    The operator will need to verify they are speaking to the account holder and may ask you some questions that only the account holder could know, and you will need to answer them if the process is to proceed.
    Once the operator has verified your identity they will send a message through to your device which contains an alpha numeric code, which you will need to read back to them.
    Once this has been completed they will send an email to your iCloud email address after a period of 24 hours, so you should check that mail is enabled in your devices iCloud settings.
    Upon receipt of the email, use the reset link provided to reset your password, after which you should be able to make the adjustments to iCloud that you wish to do.
