I was dumb enough to actually purchase mobileme from apple (i got 30 dollars off when I purchased my iphone 3g)

Anyway, i set it up and all and set up the account on my iphone. The account verified itself with the iphone but then it deleted my contacts and now i have nothing (no contacts or email)

I sent a test email to my .me account, but its not getting to my iphone. (although i can see my contacts and mail on the web site)

???, what am i doing wrong,

???, what am i doing wrong,

are you logged in on your mac? You need to go to system prefs / mobile me (after you've run software update of course) And then login there. And tell it to sync automatically.. Do a sync now etc.

It might ask how you want to handle the sync, ie overwrite mobile me setup etc. If your mac has everything right i'd just overwrite mobile me. Then everything should push for now on.
 
I have it working now,

I did EVERYTHING, so in the end I simply restored my iphone to the new 2.0 firmware (not the one that is being shipped)

That solved everything...
(go figure ??? )
