Having fun with CyanogenMod on HP TouchPad.

On Thursday October 13th, 2011 I picked up the three HP TouchPads I purchased at a severely discounted price. On Friday, iPhone 4S went on sale and I was helping a few people with theirs. Saturday morning I decided to install CyanogenMod on the HP TouchPad. I didn’t actually work on it until late afternoon.

Now, I’m bookmarking the important pages that helped me the most in installing the CyanogenMod on HP TouchPad.

Note to self:
You’re having too much fun.

Moving your MobileMe account to iCloud.

So, you want to move your MobileMe account to iCloud.

First, read this frequently asked questions about the MobileMe transition and iCloud.

What you need to have is at least one of the followings:

From iCloud page at Apple.com:

iCloud requires iOS 5 on iPhone 3GS or later, iPod touch (3rd and 4th generation), iPad, or iPad 2; a Mac computer with OS X Lion; or a PC with Windows Vista or Windows 7 (Outlook 2007 or 2010 required for accessing contacts and calendars). Some features require a Wi-Fi connection. Some features are not available in all countries. Access to some services is limited to 10 devices

Whenever you are ready,  head to http://me.com/move/ and login to your MobileMe account. Follow the instructions. Once the transition completed, you can then login to iCloud.
