I can’t use my new flash hard drive until I sign up for MobileMe

This menu is also used for syncing contacts with Google.

i’ve been trying to disable it since i saw it. i can’t unless i sign up for a mobile me account. at least i think i can’t disable it until i do that…who know, if i sign up, maybe i’ll get 5 more icons on my menu bar.

sad for sure.

that blows. That’s the kind of thing I’d only expect with Safari on Windows.

I believe SyncServices are running regardless of the status of MobileMe. This seems like a feature they’ve tied a little too close to the OS.

zbraniecki: Cool, I never know about cmd-opt on the menu bar applets before!

Is there some sort of service running for this? Does dragging the icon out of the bar shut it down?

Hi! I had the same problem. Extremely frustrating. cmd+drag out of bar…
