Ok so my .mac trial ran out. Im gonna buy it because i like it and want my email...problem is.....since it ran out, how can i renew my account? I wanna make sure I can keep my email which is vveneziani@mac.com


Anyone know whatll happen when I go to pay?

You can keep it. Just log in to that account in mac.com site, and choose to renew it whenever you feel like.

Meanwhile, you can still use that account as ichat-only.

I don't know about the chat thing... never use those invasive .apps myself, but I DO know that if you wait too long... even if you still know your :login info that you may lose your access to your temp account. I waited too long... and lost mine even though it was much too convoluted for anyone else to have tried to use it... so I assume that .mac just put that "account" into limbo. As a result... it seems to be gone from me forever... or at least for now. BTW: it was only a couple of weeks or so after the 6mo teaser account expired.

I guess it is true... "You snooze....You LOSE!"

NOPE
You can get a MacosX email for 9.95/yr but NOT the .mac
Just cough up the $99.00bucks and go for it.
