Michal Ždanský Apple has started sending e-mails to users terminating MobileMe service offering compensation for its termination. A program has been launched that offers MobileMe users with an older version of the system than OS X 10.6 a DVD with the Snow Leopard operating system for free. He was the first server to report it macgasm.
Snow Leopard is an intermediate step that needs to be taken with the older system so that users can use the iCloud services that MobileMe replaced. In OS X 10.6, you then need to find an update to Lion in the Mac App Store, purchase it for 23,99 € (Lion is no longer provided by Apple for free) and switch to the latest system where iCloud is integrated.
MobileMe is ending on June 30, 2012, and Apple's move is to encourage users to switch to the new free sync service as well as the latest OS X. If you didn't receive the email, visit this page, log in to MobileMe and fill out the subsequent form. You should then receive the Snow Leopard DVD within two weeks.
Of course, users from the Czech Republic and Slovakia, our reader, can also use free system updates @mhlousek confirmed that the form could be filled in and sent to the Czech Republic without any problems. I myself once had a new iLife sent to me for free, as I had purchased a MacBook shortly before its release and was entitled to it under Apple's terms and conditions. I only paid postage and the DVD arrived from the UK in about a week.
what about lyon?
The one in France? :-)
And hey...so it definitely turned out that SL will never support iCloud (I was secretly hoping for an update to 10.6.9).
Well, I already ordered a CD with OS X Snow Leopard arrived home yesterday from the US.. ;)
Hello. How much was shipping from the US?
