I'm giving up on MobileMe.
I really really really really wanted MobileMe to work out. It doesn’t. Not for me anyway. I watched the little video on apple.com (you know, the one with the soothing guy who says he works at the Apple Store). The little video man said everything would sync. He said I would be in sync nirvana (not to be confused with my neighbor’s wifi name nirvana).
Unfortunately, it appears nirvana will have to wait for nirvana 2.0. No matter what I do, I cannot get my contacts to sync with Outlook; syncing contact was kinda the core value proposition for moi. Of course, that statement makes it seem like there’s something I could do. In typical Apple fashion, there are very few buttons, switches, or logs to help me out. It’s supposed to “just work,” but when it doesn’t, it just don’t.
I searched the Apple support site and the only recommendtation was to reinstal Leopard. I find it unnerving that Apple users feel the need to reinstall their OS to make a little thing like MobileMe work. I know Microsoft bashing is alive and well, but at least when Microsoft software fails, I only need to reboot!
