I just signed up for/got the MobileMe trial. Love the new interface.... however it seems I cannot do anything with it! I can modify the calendar Add contacts to the address book. But I cannot sync, use the email service, use iDisk or upload pictures from iPhoto. Did Apple really limit the free "trials" this much? Or am I missing something?

Update: It seems that mail has been enabled, though everything else remains the same.

Everything except extra email aliases works in the trial, if you can get it to work that is. I'm currently finalizing my research on an Exchange provider. MobileMe really is great and if it were working well I wouldn't hesitate to use it, but I just find it too unstable - especially for email.

If you're trying to sync from your Mac to MobileMe, you'll have to either wait a few minutes for it to actually sync or hit the Sync Now button. If you don't see a little sync icon on your top toolbar, go to System Preferences and enable that option.

make sure your syncs are set to automatic.

Syncs are working fine apart from email that I delete on the iphone still on me.com server. also my outlook calendar does not upload to "cloud"

other than that it's ok, I think I need to find a resource that tells me everything that can be done with it since now I'm only using it for sync.
