ichat & Macbook

[mr8ball]

Anyone here using ichat on a macbook? It is set up with AOL right now but I am thinking mobile me would be better. For those that use it what do you suggest? I found this but it appears that it does not work with my mac.

This feature has been replaced by iCloud, which requires OS X Lion v10.7.2 or later.

With OS X Lion, you can use an iCloud account ending in @me.com or @mac.com as your iChat account. A free AIM account can be acquired (or configured) separately at the

Mine is the 10.6.8 so I guess I need to upgrade

Thanks in advance

Apple has done away with their paid mobile me account system and instead is using a standard free cloud/web based email service plus additional features. Its basically the same thing but costs nothing. I'm not sure what benefit you would have from moving away from an AoL account to a Icloud account other than I dislike AoL. Hope this helps somewhat if not let me know and i wil try and help more.

Ichat only uses aim accounts. My name is rj.usmc@mac.com but it is still an aim account

Ignore my last, I just looked at it and I guess an @mac.com account and Google Talk can also be used. PM sent
