Has MobileMe web been responding slowly?

llckll · 02-18-2009, 12:11 PM

50% of the times when I sign into www.me.com, it says unable to connect to mobileme. Then immediately it connects. This behaviors happens often for new sessions and during existing sessions. Especially when I try to send mail.

Annoying...

I get mail instantaneously as well.

But at work it's much easier to write/respond to emails from your PC/Mac than the iPhone itself. People keep walking by my cube so I have to pretend like i'm working

The workaround I found is that I downloaded Mozilla Thunderbird and set up my me account. Works well so far. Only thing is that it does not sync your contacts.

I run Mobile Me from the Safari version for Windows on a Vista PC. Send email is painful. Sometimes it refreshes and loses everything you typed. Other times it sits and you are not sure if the mail was sent or not.

The gallery also will say unavailable and refreshes.

The calendar will refresh constantly too.

I am thinking they refresh to make sure they are accepting from the cloud, but when I use it on my Mac Mini, I do not have any issues.

ON a PC though it does not run as fast as I would like or smoothly.

Dude, I feel your pain. As long as it's "working" it's fine. But the process is painful and frustrating...
