Hello, all of my mobileme apps are working great. Syncing to 3 Mac's and iPhone. All web apps are viewable and are working except....

My only problem is that when I am using me.com/calendar:
• Everything runs very, very slow.
• Sometimes when trying to view my calendar, loading the page will give me warning dialogue boxes saying that "safari may freeze" if I continue.
• Once the page finally opens, moving calendar events is very slow.
• Double clicking on any event will not open the details of that event without trying up to 10+ times...

I have 3-G4 Mac's (12" powerbook, iMac G4, iMac G5) all current with leopard 10.4.5 with safari 3.1.2...

My internet connection is AT&T DSL with Download: 2548 kb/s Upload: 405 kb/s

Is anyone else experiencing this?
Does this mean that it is time to invest in new macs?
Or is my connection speed to sloooowwwww?

It isn't your connection or your Mac's the web interface is just plain slow, I think it is all of the new "trial" accounts and the switchover "hiccups" that you are experiencing. I'd think that in a couple of weeks when the newness kind of wears off and they are running at 100% you'll notice an increase in speed.

I hope it'll pass because it's useless right now. I can't access my calendar from work to check my appointments. My iPhone doesn't have a signal here in the bowels of h*ll so I'll either have to go outside to check it or use my Google calendar. (Good thing I'm still keeping it cuz it looks like I'll be needing it.)

My bet is

My bet is it has something to do with reoccurring calendars (copied from apple forums):

Update - I managed to get a hold of an Apple tech via chat. Turns out that one of my 16 calendars had some issues. I believe I traced the problem to a recurring even on that calendar.

I performed a back up and then deleted one calendar at a time until I determined which calendar had the problem. You can then restore all of the calendars that have been deleted and re-delete only the one that caused the problem. This seems to have worked.
