Apple Lover

I received a notice from Apple about a year ago regarding their move to iCloud from MobileMe.  I did the switch and figured everything was fine, but recently I kept getting a notice saying "Move to iCloud!...Move to iCloud NOW!...Time is running out!”.  What the heck! I already DID!  

Well I didn’t.  I wasn’t paying attention apparently and didn’t read that Apple will no longer be hosting websites for their iWeb and will no longer be updating the software.  That is where my site has been for the past few years.  Catastrophe! What to do.  What to do! I don't have much time! I had just changed it to be a blog and was really enjoying posting every other day or so about everything and anything.

I went on all the forums and the best advice for my particular circumstance was to move to one of the blog formats.  I picked Blogger.  I cut and pasted all the blog entries and switched my domain name to the new blog and VIOLA the move is done.  Triumph!  True, I was panicked at first (ask Rob), but now I am pretty happy.

The official iCloud move is June 30^th, so I am hoping I have moved everything and my contacts and mail are not going to be a disaster.  

I didn’t move all the photo pages, but cleaned up a lot of the entries, which I have been meaning to do anyways.  I am going to wait to “share” photos until the iCloud move is complete, but I am confident it will be easy sharing and will get all the pics for family and friends back up and running.  In the meantime enjoy the pics I post on the blog.

Apple is also doing away with iDVD too…I still need to cope with that as family knows I love doing my yearly dvd!  I do understand Apple’s logic in making everything in the cloud and you share what you want…including movies.  Will keep you posted. 

So....

Dear Apple:

I was mad at first, but now I am not.  Thanks for thinking out of the box for us still in it. 

Sincerely,

Mac, iPad, iPod, iPhone owner and overall Apple lover
