Argh! Haven’t been this frustrated in a very long time…
The last 24 hours:
– I can’t sync my calendar items and address/phone numbers between my computers, MobileMe and iPod Touch.
– My main Windows machine won’t reboot, keeps resetting. Think the hard drive went.
– Accessing/syncing to my AppleTV is goofed up (that’s minor, unrelated and hacked so not an Apple issue)
– My cell phone keeps saying international roaming when I’m at home (it’s Sprint). I’m not that close to the border of Canada/Michigan.
I’ve spend more time with tech support the last 24 hours than the last 24 months. I’ve been escalated multiple times at Apple and not getting any closer. And after all the changes at my end I’m leaning towards it’s going to be a problem at their end so then I’ll have to get everything set back the way I want (a few hours ago, I’d have said 100% sure at their end, but not so sure now). They say this is a new problem and since we’re pushing 4 hours today I’m hoping it’s a unique problem (for their sake).
And I’ve wasted another sunny day :(
Welcome to Mercury Retrograde! This one has been fraught with tech issues for everyone. The good news is that this bitch of a retrograde will be over as of June 1. The weirdness may continue for a few days after that, but it should dissipate fairly quickly. The next Mercury retrograde happens Labour Day weekend, starting Sep 6.
Great. Just great….
