purpletigronHello, world! In between fighting off a coldy-throat-infectiony thing, supporting our now-Venerable Kitty with pancreatitis-with-complications, and trying to support Mater to find a new living situation, I'm trying to get some kind of account set up so that I can use iChat.
I have a Powerbook G4 running Mac OS X 10.5 - and iChat runs.
However, I have apparently set up 'the wrong kind of Apple ID', which has a dot in it and thus doesn't work as an iChat id. I can't change my Apple ID to not have a dot because it has to be the same as my third-party email address.
I apparently have an old AIM account for which I cannot recover the password.
Please, is there a simple *free* way - perhaps for me to set up a mac.com email? - where I can set up a (free) account and start iChatting?
Thanks in advance for help on this!
Hope to see some of you at Eastercon, if it actually is going ahead in Birmingham - any news on that hotel-block issue?
