Just installed Lion on my Early 2008 MacBook Pro. I am trying to setup iCloud Mail & Notes for the first time in the System Preferences. iCloud asks me to "Choose an email address." I already have a MobileMe address so I enter that. iCloud responds by saying that address is already taken. Of course it is, by ME! Whe won't it accept my email address?
I have migrated my Mobileme data to iCloud because my iMac supports Lion. However, my wife's iMac, running Snow Leopard cannot be upgraded (if that's the right word) to Lion so cannot migrate. She currently has a .mac email only ID through Mobileme which is functioning OK but my question is, will she still be able to use it when Apple switches off Mobileme?
I recently moved to iCloud and yesterday my MobileMe account stopped working. I update my software to OSX Lion and how to psh my mail from my iCloud account back to my MobileMe account.?
From what I can figure out, MobileMe stores my emails on the server. Does that mean I don't have a copy of my emails on my hard drive even though I check email using the Mail application on my MacBook Pro? Â In the sidebar of Mail I notice there's a section called "On My Mac" with a folder called "Local Backup" with a bunch (but not all) of the same folders that are under ".Mac Account". The most recent email in these folders is from 2010. I have no idea how this folder got there or if it's even needed.Am I obsessing over this for nothing? I feel like I should have a backup of my emails after reading that once I've migrated to iCloud, I'm cut off of MobileMe. I need to delete my MobileMe account from my iPhone before migrating to resolve an Address Book historical sync problem. That means the only copy of my emails will be on MobileMe which I won't be able to get to. Unless of course, Mail saves them somewhere on my hard drive. Â

After moving Mobile Me to iCloud, I am having 2 problems with the Mail application. On my Laptop running Lion, I'm not able to send email using my ".me" account. Error message says "connections to the server 'p99-smtp.mail.me.com' on the default ports timed out." The incoming mail server is now showing "p99-imap.mail.me.com." I do appear to be receiving mail to my .me accounts. On my Power PC G5 (running OSX 10.5.8) I am no longer receiving mail from my .me account.
I switched to icloud a few weeks ago and 2 days later I was unable to receive my .mac emails in Mail.What do you I have to do to be able to download and view my emails in Mail now that I've made the switch?
I did the move to icloud, even though i don't totally understand it. however, now on my imac, i can no longer access my mail on my macmail program. what do i do?
I'm having problems with mac mail. It won't accept my icloud/ mobileme password. So I'm unable to get my mac email on mail... It was working fine for years, no suddenly not...Â
i have snowleapard and my computer isn't core 2 duo so cannot upgrade to lion, how can i manually get icloud mail set up by my safari i have went to the website but doesn't make since to me i tried imap and smtp and doesn't work help
After I moved to iCloud it took few days for my mail account [URL] to work on my iphone and PC computer but is still gray on my macmini and would not allow me to access at all.
I have an old pre-Intel G5 Mac desktop and want to keep using Mobile me Mail and Entourage because they work so well and I have been using them for 10 years. I cannot get the mail system to work having moved everything else to iCloud. Followed the instructions but it just does not work and the mail.mac.com server will not accept my password. Any ideas?
I have Imac.When we moved from mobile me to icloud, the calendar no longer pushes to icloud.Message in calendar is: The calendar url... was not found on the server. Make sure the URL is correct.
Now that Apple offer the 60 days trial for mobileme I have decided to try it before becoming a member. Two things I couldn't figure out till now. How on earth can I setup my emails to be on MOBILEME too. Second, I am using Leopard 10.5.4 with ALL updates, but mail still can't see my @me.com email. I dunno if Apple didn't post a help for this or I just can't find it.
I have a mobile me account which I have not used much, except for a gallery. After getting notice of mobile me ending, I can't seem to find if icloud will cost or not? Can someone direct me to that info?
I need to move from mobile.me to iCloud. The operating system on my macbook pro is 10.6.8 Snow Leopard, however Lion is required. Do I need to upgrade to Lion and can I upgrade for free? Or can I transfer without on my current OS?
i got a gift MobileMe, and my question is that any benefits from MobileMe? can i use the email of mobileme and use iweb to publish sits or it is useless now..i have iPhone 4 (IOS 5.1.1), iPad 1 (5.0.1) and Macbook pro (OS X 10.7.4)
I let my MobileMe account expire and now when I try to use my login name from MobileMe for my email address with iCloud it's says that this email address is already taken. How can add my MobileMe email to iCloud?
I made the iCloud transition before June 30 with an unsupported platform (SnowLeopard) as Mountain Lion was not yet available for download (and still isn't). I followed the instructions for the migration provided by Apple, and while I can send and receive email, my contacts are GONE. They were acquired over many years, and if they arenow irretrievable, I would lose all faith in Apple. Where are they and how can I retrieve them into my iCloud contact list?
I've had my MobileMe account since 2003. Had my three Macs since my first G4 and added to them as I could afford.I also have an iPhone 3G. All have access to my MobileMe.
I also have my website on MobileMe. Can I ask, what happens, as I got a warning to switch, as my MobileMe will end soon, if I can't have Lion on my computers?My 11 years of connection to MobileMe will all be lost?Â
I live in Greece and Mac prices are through the roof here. This is a forced upgrade tactic, I feel. Will there be no alternative to online mail for the lesser mortals without Lion?Â
Could I have an answer, and not get deleted again, as, as the email states, time is running out.Â

I have no desire to upgrade my MBP 2010 to Lion, yet I have a MM account and use AddressBook, Mail, iCal, Facetime. What should I do? I'd rather sit it out 'till Mountain Lion is out. Can I still use said 3 apps?
