Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT

Looks like no one’s replied in a while. To start the conversation again, simply ask a new question.

MobileMe is messing with my Outlook since the latest iTunes update. I have no intention of upgrading Outlook just for iTunes as the Outlook is my personal account and I have no need to have MobileMe attached

How do I detach MobileMe from my personal Outlook file?

Windows XP

I tried:

  • disabling the addin in Outlook: no effect,
  • removing the MobileMe Control Panel via Control Panel>Add or Remove Programs (no-go there, as there is no Uninstall option),
  • flushing iTunes, Apple Sofware Update, Apple Mobile Devices Support, Bonjour and Apple Applications Support using Revo Uninstaller on its most aggressive setting and then re-installing iTunes: no effect.


In the end, I simply renamed C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\OutMMe32.dll to OutMMe32.dll.rjs


Seems to be a safe workaround; Outlook is back to its original behviour and iTunes is fine (or as much as it ever was, anyway).
