What Happens to Me after 6/30/12?  My devices are not supported!!!

What Happens to Me after 6/30/12?  Do I get to keep my @me.com address from MobileMe because My Mac, PC nor iOS device is supported by iCloud
On 6/30/12 All ACTIVE MobileMe accounts that havn't MOVED to iCloud will be deleted as MobileMe is no longer available.
Yes, this has a lot of customers upset, but you can still keep your account active and going until you are able to address the issue with the current versions of your computer and devices.
iCloud does have a web based version like any other email address out there.  You may not be able to access the account on your Computers or devices as you would like to for what ever reason, but this will help you to keep your email address and gain access to it.
iCloud: Supported system requirements
You can KEEP your MobileMe email address and move it to iCloud even though your devices are not compatible and here is how.
****Mac OS X 10.4.11 and before: DOES NOT fall into this catagorey as 10.4.11 doesn't Support Safari 5.****
NON-Supported Devices & Browsers for iCloud
DEVICES & COMPUTERS
Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard
Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard
Windows XP
iPhone 3
iPhone 3Gs
iPod Touch 2nd Generation
BROWSERS
Safari 4
FireFox 3
Google Chrome 11
Before moving the account to iCloud.  First create a MobileMe back up of all your data.  This will ensure it has been saved to your computer.
How to back up MobileMe data:
Summary
You can back up your MobileMe data to your Mac or Microsoft Windows-based PC.
This is different from syncing with MobileMe: syncing should not be considered a backup of your data because changes to the data can propagate automatically.
Sync your MobileMe account to me.com and your current iOS device if you have one.
Make sure the data has synced to the device and http://me.com.
Then you will need to DISABLE MobileMe syncing from your Computer and Devices
On the iPhone
To delete your MobileMe account from the iPhone/Pad/Pod Touch, tap Settings ☞ Mail, Contacts, Calendars ☞ Tap your MobileMe account.  Next, you will turn the sliders off for Mail, Contacts, Calendars, Bookmarks Calendars.  You are going to be asked if you want to keep or delete the data from the iPhone/Pad/Pod Touch.  Make sure you KEEP on the iPhone/Pad/Pod Touch.
This will prevent data loss.
☞ Then Tap Delete Account. DON'T FORGET TO KEEP THE DATA ON THE DEVICE!!!
On the Mac
Click on  ☞ System Preferences ☞ MobileMe ☞ Account tab ☞ Sign Out.
To Move your account to iCloud
☞☞☞☞IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO BACK UP THE MOBILEME DATA AND TO SIGN OUT OF MOBILEME ON ALL DEVICES AS THIS CAN CAUSE POSSIBLE DATA LOSS DUE TO THE CURRENT OS YOU ARE USING.*****
Link: MobileMe: About moving to iCloud
Summary
If you have an active MobileMe account when you move to iCloud, you’ll be able to keep your @me.com or @mac.com email address and move your MobileMe Mail, Contacts, and Calendars, as well as your Bookmarks, to the new service.
Go to http://me.com/move
Log in with your FULL MobileMe email address including @me.com
(For @mac users, use @me.com just to log in.  You will later see your account is @mac.com still)
As you go thorough the prompts, you will see an ALERT regarding if your OS is supported by iCloud.
Ignore this and select YES.  This will contiue the iCloud set up.
Once it is done, you will have web access to iCloud via a supported browser (see below) for iCloud.
icloud.com
To access your mail, contacts, calendars, Find My iPhone, and iWork documents from your computer's web browser, one of these browsers is required:
Safari 5 or later
Firefox 5 or later
Internet Explorer 8 or later
Chrome 12 or later

  • After upgrade to mavericks usb devices are not recognised?

    After upgrade from Mountain Lion 10.8.2 to Mavericks external USB speakers do not work and HP Inkjet USB printer is not recognised in control panel.

    Back up all data.
    In the iCloud preference pane, uncheck the box marked Calendars & Reminders if it's checked. You may get an alert that one or more calendars will be deleted from your computer. Confirm. The calendars won't be deleted from iCloud. Leave the preference pane open.
    Quit Reminders if it's running, and also quit Calendar or iCal.
    Triple-click the line below on this page to select it:  
    ~/Library/Calendars/Calendar Cache  
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
    Services ▹ Reveal
    from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a file named "Calendar Cache" selected.
    Move the selected file to the Trash. There may be one or two other files in the same folder with names that begin in "Calendar Cache". If so, delete those files too.
    If you unchecked the box in the iCloud preference pane, check it again and close the preference pane.
    Launch Reminders and test.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

  • Suddenly all my albums in Photos are blank.  The photos are still in the camera roll but not in the albums.  What happened and how do I recover them all?  Are they in my icloud?  Also the photos are clear as thumprints but when I touch it to zoom are blur

    Suddenly all my albums in Photos are blank.  The photos are still in the camera roll but not in the albums.  What happened and how do I recover them all?  Are they in my icloud?  Also the photos are clear as thumprints but when I touch it to zoom are blurry.  what gives?  They were all completely clear and in the albums when I last used my ipad??  Would doing the "Reset" under General settings do that?  When I returned from Europe I reset my ipad to get it in the right time zone etc. 

    Reboot.   Press and hold the home and sleep buttons until the apple logo appears. Ignore the red slider.

  • What happened to my  GB 5.1? Suddenly features are gone- didn't upgrade!!!

    What happened to my  GB 5.1? Suddenly features are gone, like reverb, compression, etc, for each track. I didn't download or upgrade. What happened?
    How, why? Can I get it back?   I've relied on simple use for years.
    How could apple change my program without me permitting anything? Was it part of Safari update? If so, that is very slimy and unfair... Not ethical.....
    How do I get back the features I've been relying on for 5.1?       Cutting those things out of 5.1 as a way to make us upgrade to 10 isn't right. Its not as if I was using Apple Support for 5.1..... This doesn't seem Apple like, at least with original ethics and values.  
    David

    I am having the same issue.  I had a 5.0.2 version (I think) of Safari on a Windows Vista machine which worked with my XmlHttpRequest() just fine.  Then I upgraded now on 5.1.5 and now my initial command (which returns just text) no longer works.  Has anyone else seen this.  The same is true for my Safari browsers in the iPhone and iPad.
    I have another application which uses the same interface just returns comma delimited data and it works just fine.  Has anyone else experienced this?
    Thanks

    What happens to a Domain Controller if event id:2213 is not fixed? Does it impact the domain replication to other DC's? Also the DC has PDC and RID fsmo roles any impact there?

  • HT1937 if you are to update your iphone and after it says the simcard inside is not supported, what can yo do?

    if you are to update your iphone and after it says the simcard inside is not supported, what can yo do?

    That means your phone was hacked to unlock it.
    ONLY the carrier it is locked to can authorize unlocking it.
    It may no longer be possible to process a legitimate unlock on a phone that was hacked/jailbroken. The hack can do permanent damage.
    You can find out who it was locked to and find out if they offer unlocking and if you qualify.
    Don't be surprised if you are never able to use it again. It may be permanently bricked.

    Try a reset. Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. This can take up to 20 seconds to react.

    After upgrading to Mountain Lion, I repeatedly get this message:  "There was a problem connecting to the server.   URLs with the type "file:" are not supported. 
    Why? 
    What can be done to eliminate it?

    Open the Time Machine pane in System Preferences. If it shows that Time Machine is ON, click the padlock icon in the lower left corner, if necessary, to unlock it. Scroll to the bottom of the list of backup drives and click Add or Remove Backup Disk. Remove all the disks, then add them back. Quit System Preferences. Test.

  • Iweb with Lion: Umlaute after ftp-upload on linux-Server are not correct - but worked with Leopard!

    Hi from Germany. I used iweb 3.04 and OS X 10.6+ and everything worked fine on different websites, including German Umlaute ä, ö, ü, ß.
    After upgrading to Lion all Umlaute are not correct spelled (strange letters) after ftp-upload on a linux-server (which is the same as before). Before upload these Umlaute are spelled correctly, but not after upload.
    Trials were a) upload htaccess file b) use older iWeb 3.03 c) asking server administrator (answer: "use ae, oe, ue instead"), but nothing worked.
    Any ideas or help?
    Thank you very much, and excuse my english
    Peter

    The problem lies in the uploading of the files or the server itself.  If the umlautes looked good on the server before then we have to think it's the uploading process.  Try using the free FTP client  Cyberduck to upload your site folder to your server.  Then check to see if the rendering is correct.
    What's the URL of your site so we can examine it first hand?

  • I am trying to download pictures from my canon rebel  eos to my Ipad but i get the message "this device is not supported" what can I do ?

    I just bought an Apple Lighting to USB Camera Adapter. When I got home to and connected it to my Canon Rebel EOS Digital Camera. I received the error message "This device is not supported" I was wondering if there is any software or drivers I need to download?
    Thanks
    Don

    I use Canon Cameras and have no problems downloading photos from the camera to the Lightning to USB Camera Adapter. My questions and suggestions might be basic but just to make sure:
    1. This is an iPad forum area. Are you using the lightning to USB camera adapter with an iPad? Your info in your original post says iPod. I'm not sure that the adapter works with an iPod.
    2. After you connect the adapter to your iPad and then use a USB cable to connect the adapter to the camera did you turn on the camera?
    3. If you did turn on the camera and still did not get the import of photos to start try a reset your iPad. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. This will not cause any data loss.
