Years ago, when Apple IDs first came into existence, i tried to set one up using my normal e-mail ID.
It wouldnt let me. It REQUIRED that is use the @MAC.COM domain, for some unfathomable reason. Well, i went along with this madness for a couple years until Apple came to their senses, and then i abandoned that ID and set up a new one under my real address.
Unfortunately, some stuff is still under the old MAC domain ID. When credit cards expire, i'm left trying to remember passwords i havent used in 3-5 years.
Right now i have Pandora playing ads to me because theyre under the wrong domain and i cannot remember (nor do i seem to have written down anywhere) the password i used about 1986.
Geez.
Also, somehow i activated "split keyboard" and turned off "auto correct" which capitalizes my eyes.
