I've had three chats with their AWFUL support people and I'm getting nowhere. I've seen this posted as a solution for a few people but when I check mine, I see 4 lines with no mention of MobileMe or .Mac or anything like that. What should it say? If I delete it all will it rebuild? I’m in MobileMe hell. I’ve had three chats with their AWFUL support people and I’m getting nowhere.

Your lines are probably similar to: ## # Host Database # # localhost is used to configure the loopback interface # when the system is booting. Do not change this entry. ## 127.0.0.1 localhost 255.255.255.255 broadcasthost ::1 localhost fe80::1%lo0 localhost That's what my hosts file looks like now (and works). Yours is probably similar so I don't think this is your issue. Sorry. If you only have 4 lines in your /etc/hosts file, this is likely not your problem. Your lines are probably similar to:

##
# Host Database
#
# localhost is used to configure the loopback interface
# when the system is booting. Do not change this entry.
##
127.0.0.1 localhost
255.255.255.255 broadcasthost
::1 localhost
fe80::1%lo0 localhost

That’s what my hosts file looks like now (and works). Yours is probably similar so I don’t think this is your issue. Sorry.
