Switching from MobileMe to iCloud - Need some HELP

I switched from my MobileMe account to iCloud, but I cannot delete my old MobileMe account. Every time I try to go to https://me.com/MOVE (as suggested by Apple), the site automatically re-directs me to https://me.com/FIND, and then tells me to go to iCloud to find my iPhone. I couldn't care less about finding my iPhone: I just want to delete my (at this point useless) MobileMe account.
Any ideas?

I am in EXACTLY the same boat.
Double points to the correct answer!
Good luck Chris.

Transitioned from MobileMe to iCloud, need iCal help!

I've made the transition from MobileMe to iCloud. My Macbook's system prefs shows on iCloud account, using my mobileme email. My iCal however, only shows my me.com calendars, while the iCloud.com online calendar only shows the two default calendars. Am I missing something?

Switching from MobileMe to iCloud, but I can't upgrade to Lion

My iMac is too old to upgrade to Lion, so when I switch from MobileMe to iCloud, I understand that I will no longer be able to use my desktop mail app to retrieve mail, and my calendars and contacts will no longer be in sync with my iPad and iPhone. So when I switch over to iCoud, is there any work-around for this so that I can continue to use the desktop mail app on my iMac or otherwise get mail on my desktop, and keep my mail, calendars and contacts synced between my iMac, iPad and iPhone?

Unfortunately you simply need Lion or Mountain Lion to access these features on your desktop "mac applications".
However! Mail, contacts, calender & reminders, notes, find my iPhone and iWork documents synced with iCloud from an iOS device can currently (and presumably in the future too) be accesed at icloud.com from any browser with scripting enabled.
I do not have an @me or mobile me account myself. So you'll have to login and see if its already set up for you automatically, I assume there is no reason why it wouldn't be, as the mail server is already with Apple.
Other iOS devices that are associated with your Apple ID by activating "Automatic Downloads" which in laymens terms is Apples' iTunes in the Cloud service can have up to 10 devices (max of 5 computers) that will automatically synce iTunes Purchases including Music, Apps and iBooks to all those devices straight from an internet connection without the need for an iTunes sync. But iTunes in the Cloud will not automatically push TV Shows, Movies or Music Videos.
iCloud will also sync everything mentioned before about icloud.com, including Bookmarks and Photo Stream if selected, to any iOS devices setup with iCloud.
I hope that makes sense, for more information on how to setup a device with iCloud read this
Any more questions dont hesitate to ask :]

before upgrading to Lion, I switched from MobileMe to iCloud. At that time I used my MobileMe user name and password. I purchased additional storage space to 20GB. I was unable to send any emails during this time. After researching, I upgraded to Lion and changed my icloud mail usuer name and password from the original I used from mobileme. How do I get my upgraded storage to my new account. I intend to delete the first one.
Please help!

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Unfortunately you can't, the additional storage belongs to your first account, you can't transfer it.

I seem to have 2 Apple IDs, one on my MacBook Pro and another on my devices. If I switch from MobileMe to iCloud on my Mac (under the apple logo) will my devices work and sync in iCloud. I have no idea how I go 2 IDs

Can I get rid of one ID? How do I do that?

one on my MacBook Pro
That's not an Apple ID. That is your admin account which you can view in System Preferencs > Accounts or Users & Groups.

Just use your current Apple ID when you setup your iCloud account that you use for your devices.

You can migrate to iCloud, but the only thing you will be able to do is access email, and you will have toi set Mail up manually to do this:
Entering iCloud email settings manually in Tiger
This is worth doing to maintain your email address, but you won't be able to sync calendars, contacts or bookmarks. Your calendars and contacts will be removed from MobileMe (though not from your Mac) and won't appear on the iCloud website.

Months ago I switched from "MobileMe" to "iCloud." I continue to get messages telling me to switch to iCloud. Why? How do I fix this?

Get messages where? Have you signed out in System Preferences>MobileMe? - if you haven't, you should first go to the iDisk pane and stop iDisk sycing if it's running, then go to the Sync pane and stop any syncing, then go to Account and sign out.
if you still get problems, go to (user)/Library/Preferences/ByHost and delete all .plist files beginning with com.apple.DotMac and com.apple.idisk, then reboot.

Plug in iPhone with Wall Charger for 10 minutes, it may turn on itself. If not, keep on Wall Charger and Reset, hold both Home and Power buttons until the iPhone begins to restart. This usually takes less than 20 seconds of holding both buttons.

IWeb help needed in switch from MobileMe to iCloud

I recently switched from Snow Leopard and Mobile Me to Lion and iCloud. In doing so, I seem to have "lost" iDisk, which is where I stored my public, downloadable files from my iWeb site.
I found iDisk, but it is not listed in iWeb as a destination source. Where do I now post public files? Thanks in advance for any help.

Singing up for iCloud automatically logged you out of MMe. Just go to the System/MMe preference pane and log back into MMe. iWeb will then be able to communicate with the iDisk server again.

Switching from PC...need iphone help

hey im about to get my macbook pro in for graduation and was wondering what all i needed to do to keep all my iphone settings and contacts that i currently have when i switch over...im currently on a PC running windows XP.
note that i entered all my contacts manually and dont have a mail account on my server that they back up to that i am aware of. I honestly have never messed with that tab and just need some advice here! thanks!

Perhaps this topic would be better suited for the iPhone Mail, Contacts and Calendar forum?

Problems switching from MobileMe to iCloud

I had a MobileMe account and now I need to switch to iCloud. I want to keep the prefix from my MobileMe email account. When I start the iCloud process and try to enter my prefix it claims it is already taken. And I think it is taken by me
I want to keep the rail prefix, how do I do this?

MobileMe closed a year ago and if you did not migrate to iCloud before the end of August last year you can no longer do so. This means your @me.com address is no longer active.
It's not clear whether you can open an iCloud with the same prefix, but you won't be able to get an @me.com address. Go to System Preferences>iCloud (Lioni 10.7.2 or higher required) and sign in with your @me.com address. As this is an Apple ID (even though it's not functioning) you may be able to do so and get an @icloud.com address, though it's possible you may have to choose one with different prefix. If it won't accept the @me.com address as an ID you will have to get another Apple ID and try with that.
If you do use the @me.com address as an ID you need to make sure you have an alternate contact address since if Apple try to contact you at it, it won't work.

Switching from PC to Mac - need urgent help!

This question has been asked before, more or less, but I'm going to ask it again, because my version is more - me specific.
Upgrading from PC (windows) to Mac (...). I have CS5.0 (photoshop, illustrator, indesign, acrobat, bridge) Student and Teacher edition for windows.
As far as I can tell, it is not possible to simply switch my PC license to a Mac license - even when I DON'T want to be using CS5 on both the PC and Mac. Meaning, I ONLY will be using CS5 on the Mac.
Is this correct?
Presuming the above statement is correct, how much is an upgrade from CS5 Windows to CS.5 Mac? How much of a hassle is it?
And, how different is CS5.5 from CS5.0, as in, features and "looks" wise? Is it fully compatable with the intuos4? And will PhotoshopCafe tutorials for CS5 still be relevant?
One last question. Is running Photoshop through Parallels 7 a pliable option? From the research I've done, it doesn't sound like it (ie. lag and no full access to full RAM power), but I would appreciate verification from personal experience.
Thank you in advance, and I apologise for the mass of questions.

Then really for me upgrading would be a waste of money. I really only use PS and AI, and Bridge obviously. And from what I read about what they upgraded, it would be a waste for me. I'm not commercial yet! lol
Thank you very much for your help. I think now I will continue looking deeper into running CS5 via Parallels. My only concern is that it apparently runs slower (which makes sense). However I read somewhere that setting up the VM on a seperate partition on the HDD helps? Or even running Bootcamp through the VM.
Do you know anything about this? I've set up seperate drive partitions on Windows before, so that is not a concern to me.

Switched from MobileMe to iCloud too late & lost data

I am probably one of the few idiots who thought I had iCloud all set up, so didn't bother to really look into this. I have icloud on my iphone, but it wasn't on my MacBook Pro because I didn't upgrade from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion. Anyway, in the process I have lost ALL my calendar info on both my phone and computer. I always back-up my computer to an external hard drive. Is there a way to recover the data and put it into the new iCloud calendar?

Read through the following - it might help.

From Ubuntu to Arch, need some help

Hi everyone, I'me running Arch on a iMac 203 Aluminium and first thing first, one of my problems is the screen brightness (very very strong).
So there is a file on ubuntuforums that seems to do the job.
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=584674
But I cant' manage to make it work on Arch.
What can I try, do I need the sources to compile on my machine ?
Can someone try to adapt it for Arch ?
Thx

copy & paste the C code from http://www.felipe-alfaro.org/blog/2006/ … cbook-pro/ (if you trust the ubuntu forums. I didn't proofread it. It might make your computer grow wings, bite you and fly off. Or just melt.). Save the code as a file, backlight.c
Now open a terminal in the directory where backlight.c is located.
type out:
gcc -o backlight backlight.c
You now have a program called backlight. It should adjust the brightness.
But to change the brightness, you have to have direct access to video memory. That means you have to be superuser (root).
Type "su", then your root password when prompted.
Now test the program by typing "./backlight 10" in the terminal.
You can give it values from 1 to 15. Find a value you like. Now type "cp backlight /usr/local/bin". You copy the program to the standard location for user installed programs. Next, to run it at startup. Still as root, edit /etc/rc.local. Add a line saying "/usr/local/bin/backlight N", where N is the number code you want for the brightness.
That should do it )
