MobileMe, App Store, iPhone 2.0, iTunes 7.7


Numberzz

In a surprising act of earliness, Apple has taken MobileMe, the App Store, and firmware 2.0 online. Mobile me was taken online after last night when Apple released the MobileMe updater for OS X that replaced all references to .Mac with MobileMe.

Apple has also released iTunes 7.7, which has support for iPhone OS 2.0, App Store Applications, and the ability to be controlled by the "Remote" application that is available on the App Store. iTunes 7.7 is available through Software Update.

 

iPhone OS 2.0 Build 2A347 (download link) is now available and has all the Exchange and other features that everyone has wanted for the iPhone for so long now.

 

App Store:

Finally! We can all download 3rd party applications for the iPhone with no h4x0r1ng required! The App Store is hidden from iTunes, but, if you search the Application name in iTunes, it will show up. You can also access the App Store from the App Store application on your iPhone or iPod touch.

Good news! When you download an Application from your iPhone, it syncs back up to your iTunes library.

EDIT: I see at least 4 apps that are available that you can download from Installer: Sketches, Band, Superpong, and Trism.

mac.com is currently under maintenance. How strange. How did you get to the MobileMe login?

 

This service is temporarily unavailable.

We are currently performing scheduled maintenance.

Normal service will be restored soon.

Upgraded from my Hackintosh this morning. Works great! -_- Warning to all the unlocked/jailbroken guys: there's been about a 99% failure rate. Most just don't work, some are bricking.

 

what is the pass word foe the dmg??

 

There is none. You downloaded it with Safari, didn't you? The file is actually a ZIP with a renamed extension, which Safari tries to extract, and the extracted files show up as DMGs. Make Safari stop auto-unzipping, or use Firefox (option #2 is preferred ;)).

Oh great. They released the iTunes Store here in Brazil today but it's ironic because it only contains iPhone Apps (no music or videos) and the iPhone won't be released tomorrow. Brazil it's on the list for the "second phase" :D

Like the previous reply says, download the package and iPhone update manually.

 

I don't know about the iPhone detection problem, though.. Mine works fine..

Oh noes, no more .Mac? but that sounds so much cooler than MobileMe...

 

I must agree.

 

'MobileMe' sounds childish(in other words, user-friendly) while '.Mac' feels more professional..

 

Well.. that's my personal opinion..
