On my home computer (iMac G5, Leopard) I don't plan on syncing anything for a few days at least. I'd hate to have the same problems Stephen had. I just hope messing around with the web-based app earlier today didn't end up creating a problem that will affect my iMac. I can't see how it would, but you never know.

I've waited this long for Mobile Me to get here, I guess waiting a little longer for dependability's sake won't hurt. :(

Feeling a little let-down by Apple on this one.

I set it up this morning to sync with my Outlook calendar. It then :

  1. deleted all this week's appointments from Outlook (great)
  2. refused to let me modify or enter new calendar entries in Safari or IE (after giving me an error message that the calendar cannot be loaded from the server)
  3. moved all my calendar entries back 3 hours to west coast time (even though the option for time zone support is not checked)

And now I can't log in at all.

The calendar in particular doesn't seem to be working when its up.</p> Its up & down for me, and buggy when its up. The calendar in particular doesn't seem to be working when its up.
