Depends on how you see it, you either have 22 days or 21 days left until MobileMe ends on June 30th, 2011.
To use iCloud you need at least OS X Lion or iOS 5. One main reasons people stay with Mac OS X Snow Leopard is the applications. OS X Lion no longer supports Rosetta application. That means you have to upgrade the applications before making the move to OS X Lion.
MobileMe service is set to end on June 30th, 2012. If you are using AirPort Extreme Base Station, AirPort Express or Time Capsule, make sure you install the latest firmware for iCloud support. OS X Lion users should configure any 802.11n-based AirPort base stations using AirPort Utility 6.0 or later.
Before moving your MobileMe account to iCloud, you should back up your Address Book.
MobileMe service is scheduled to end on June 3oth, 2012.
By this time you should know that iCloud requires minimum of OS X Lion and iOS 5.
MobileMe is set to reach the end of life on June 30th, 2012. MobileMe users are advised to move their accounts to iCloud.
For those who wants to get refund for their MobileMe Service:
Can I get a refund for my MobileMe subscription?
If you have an unused activation code from a MobileMe box, you can submit a refund request through June 30th, 2012. Or if you have an active subscription, you can cancel your service.
Then again, if you were trying to cancel your MobileMe account at this point in time, it’d be pointless. If you have those unused codes, then you can still get your money back.
MobileMe service is scheduled to end on June 30th, 2012 and users (read: subscribers) are encouraged to move their account to iCloud. Individual MobileMe account came with 20 GB of email and iDisk combined storage. iCloud comes with 5 GB of free storage for iOS backup and Email. That’s not a lot of storage if you had multiple iOS devices (and Macs with OS X Lion or newer). Apple is giving MobileMe users complimentary iCloud storage upgrade after the move.
MobileMe members with 20GB of purchased storage receive a complimentary iCloud storage upgrade of 20GB, and accounts with additional purchased storage (40GB to 60GB) receive a complimentary upgrade of 50GB after moving to iCloud. These free upgrades are good through September 30th, 2012. After that date, you can continue the upgrade at the regular price or let it expire and use the free 5GB plan.
One thing MobileMe should be aware of is the size of their mailbox should they choose not to purchase additional iCloud storage: the size of the mailbox. Clean up your mailbox before moving to iCloud or September 30th, 2012.
One MobileMe feature that didn’t make it to iCloud is iDisk. When June 30th, 2012 came and went, anything you stored in your iDisk would be gone. You should copy copy all of your iDisk content before MobileMe ends.
Go to MobileMe System Preferences pane to see how much space you used on your iDisk.
