    We have 6 out of 7 Macs that I cant get Mesh to load on and 2 of 3 XP PCs ( I will make a 2nd post for that). I am in a bad situation because I convinced our company the MESH would work much better than mobile me and they are all really really really mad at me right now.

    Anyway I downloaded the program, first computer it worked fine. So I decided to convert the rest. None of the other mac will launch Live Mesh. It opens, but the "sign in" is grayed out. I have deleted the Application and library files reinstalled, repaired disk permissions without any luck. A couple worked at first then stopped after a restart?

    I need help fast... PLEASE!

    Hi Jason,

    I'm sorry to hear you've had such a rough start with Live Mesh.  The Live Mesh team would like to help out as much as we can if you're still trying to get Live Mesh working on all these different computers.  The quickest way for us help would be to have you open a bug through Connect and attach logs from each computer.  Instructions for collecting logs and submitting a bug are in an Announcement at the top of the forums.  Please let me know if you have any questions.

    Thanks,

    Ben.

    No offense but I personally think it is slightly funny you convinced a whole company to rely on a beta but anyways just delete /Application\ Support/Live Mesh and /Application\ Support/Live Id, and try to sign in again.

    Kind of hidden files look under the HD library and then application support

    Yea, it was stupid..... a Microsoft product. What was I thinking? Thanks for pointing that out. It just worked well on the first 2 computers. All the XPusers were crying that iDisk was so slow. I thought it would be a great solution.

    "delete /Application\ Support/Live Mesh and /Application\ Support/Live Id, and try to sign in again."
    2nd thing I tried.
    Did not work.

    I tied repairing disk permissions, making a new user. Also removed preference file.
    I think my account on the "live Mesh" server is messed up?

    Now they all open.... then:
    "The application LiveMesh quit unexpectedly"

    And one of the XP computers cant sign in on a fresh install of XP SP3??????

    This is more like a Carbon and not a Beta?

    If anyone else is stupid like me, i was told this solution works best for crossplatform:
