Has anyone converted to it from MobileMe? When you sign in for the first time. it wants you to convert your MobileMe account. I was just wondering if, by doing that, it deletes the MobileMe account, or do they both coexist for now.
. Yesterday I looked into a lot of information about installing Lion. After I removed all stuff that would not be compatible, I chickend out. Wasn't sure whether to install over my present OS, put it on another drive, or what I'd do if I got stuck.
Today I looked into getting flown up to iCloud:[ My iPhone is just now downloading/installing OS 5 ]

I'm backing up stuff from my idisk now -- even though Apple support pages say they'll still be available until June 30 of next year ...
In other news, the new iPhone update has 6 hours remaining, the two new software updates for my desktop are at 8 hours -- on a really quite speedy cable connection. Apple's servers must be getting hit pretty hard ;-)
This is why I busied myself until 9pm to download all the updates. Took about 20 minutes for 10.7.2 Combo Update, iOS5, Safari, iPhoto, and Lion Recovery update.
The real killer is the iOS 5 install. The backup & restore process will take better than 30 minutes to complete (unless you have nothing but the native apps installed, I suspect).

. My iPhone install worked just great. Not so with the iPad. Error number 3004. Called AppleCare. Got lots of help, but iPad still in Brick status as of 10:50 p.m. PDT. I am supposed to try again tomorrow and if it doesn't work, I have a case number with AppleCare.
Glad I kept my Kindle. At least I can still read my books. MacWorld and MacRumors forums have lots TONS of feedback from people who couldn't finish the install on either the iPhone or iMac. .

My internet speed was restored today, so the updates via Software Update took a little over an hour on my MacMini.
