Does anyone else have this same thing occurring? In system preferences, the MobileMe account type shows as an individual account (under account status) when I have a family account.
Yeah, I do. I'm not 100% about what it said before, but it says "individual" now. I have the "main" account from the family pack I bought and my wife has one of the family accounts; hers still says "family" in System Preferences. When I look at my account at https://secure.me.com/account/ it shows the hierarchy correctly. I'm not too worried about it.
The Family Pack includes one individual account plus four Family Member accounts, each with its own email address, 5GB of combined email and file storage, and 50GB of monthly data transfer.
