Important information for users of the new MobileMe Calendar with iPad
Dear MobileMe member,
iOS 4.2 is now available and provides full support for the new MobileMe Calendar on iPad, including push updates of calendar changes. To update to iOS 4.2, connect your iPad to iTunes on your computer, select it in the Devices list, and click “Check for Update.”
Important: If you were using the new MobileMe Calendar on your iPad prior to updating to iOS 4.2, you should:
delete the CalDAV calendar you manually configured on your iPad
set the calendar slider to “on” in your MobileMe account
This will prevent the appearence of a duplicate calendar. For step-by-step instructions, please see this article.
Sincerely,
The MobileMe Team
[Thanks to MacDailyNews Readers too numerous to mention individually for the heads up.]
Yeah, about that…..
I’m having all kinds of trouble with MobileMe sync this afternoon. Gee, whoda thunk that wudda happened???
I’ve been running 4.2 for about 6 weeks with no issue with my mobileme account and syncing.
Servers probably all overloaded.
Gee whiz that’s exciting
It’s better now, but it was a MESS for several hours this afternoon/evening. I have also been running 4.2 GM for a couple of weeks and 4.2.1 a few days. The problems only started today.
” . . . updating to iOS 4.2, you should:
delete the CalDAV calendar you manually configured on your iPad”
Now how many people are going to now delete their calendar from their Cal app mistakingly believing MobleMe will bring it back?
Could have been worded better.
Good news!!!
I updated to iOS 4.2 and I can say that it works really fine.

It wiped all my music and movies from my 3GS. Everything else was ok. Is there any reason to update with a 3GS? I read something about new text tones, but I couldn’t find any after updating.

Did the same to mine even though on the graphic it showed all the music to be taking up storage.
I synced it again and all worked well.
On a 3GS, you can
-print remotely to an HP printer (mine is a Canon)
-use Airplay (I have the old TV, but my Airport Express to a Bose wave player works)
-use word search in Safari
-can assign text tone to different people, new tones were for iPhone 4 only
-beautiful, elegant and lickable new icon for ‘Voice Memos’….

why don’t you take your acai berries and stick them up your…oh, never-mind.
You already did….
The Rotate lock no longer works on both our WiFi and 3G iPads. The lock works as a audio mute button now.
Anyone else?
Only if you can convince Apple that you should be involved in the beta testing. Otherwise, you just have to wait until November when it is scheduled to be released….
