If that’s the case, you do have another option: Gmail, or Google Apps (basically Gmail but with your own domain instead of ). Of course, you may not want to upgrade to Lion, or you may have a Mac which won’t allow it (you can’t install Lion on any PowerPC-based Macs, or first-generation Intel Macs, or any Mac with less than 2 GB of RAM). Intuit has promised a compatible version within a few months, as they’ve never replaced it with a suitable newer version. Once you’ve upgraded, simply walk through the iCloud upgrade process you’ll be offered, and you’ll hopefully be up and running in to time.Īlso, be aware that on Lion, that some of your older applications may not run the best-known offenders here are Microsoft Office 2004, Adobe Creative Suite 2, and Intuit Quicken 2007.

Always be sure you have a full Time Machine backup before you upgrade to Lion! You can do this yourself by purchasing Lion in the Mac App Store for $29 it is downloaded from the internet.
MOJAVE COMPATIBILITY BUSYCAL MAC OS X
If you are using Mac OS X Snow Leopard (10.6), or earlier, you’re going to need to upgrade to Lion (10.7). Apple has never been shy about, uh, strongly encouraging their users to get with the new. You don’t want to wait until this happens to deal with it. If you receive mail at a me.com (or mac.com) email address, you’re going to stop receiving it. Your contacts and calendar will stop synchronizing. The bad news is that it’s time for you to start making plans to move out, because Apple will be relocating you to iCloud in a few short months. Hey, Mac user! Still using MobileMe for your mail, calendar, contacts, Find My iDevice, or anything else? The good news is that you don’t have to pay for it any more.
