Well, no, it won't "remain the same" -- it will eventually end up being spaces.live.com, and they will migrate the addresses when they're ready. Right now I think they just did some pre-emptory address changes to the typical spaces.msn.com URL for your blog, I think its now (USERNAME).spaces.msn.com -- and so, it would follow that in a logical sense, Live Spaces would mean the following blog URL formats: (USERNAME).spaces.live.com

You need to read what i wote. I said it should remain the same. but with the name change. reason why i didnt put that is becuase we know msn spaces will change to live spaces so no need to tell people what they already know

I did read what you wrote. All I did was state that in a technical sense, no it won't "remain the same", not the naming conventions and what not for older spaces.

I'm not here to assume what it is you meant, as apparently, when I do that about your apparently innate inability to spell, you like to bitch about that too. :|

Since I have a hotmail account associated with my MSN Space, I can't really move it over to my new Live account. I contacted MSN space:

Dear xxxxxx,

Thank you for writing to MSN Spaces Technical Support.

This is xxxxx and I understand that you want to associate your existing Space site with your new Microsoft Passport Network account. I understand how important resolving this issue is for you.

I am sorry to tell you that the said feature is not currently possible. You may delete your current Space and create a new one using your new account.

You can delete an MSN Space provided you are recognized as its owner and you are signed in using the same Microsoft Passport Network account you used in creating it. I have included for you below the steps on how to delete a Space.

1. Make sure that you have signed into your space and are in "edit mode".

2. Click the "Settings" tab.

3. Click "Space Settings".

4.Scroll down to the Delete your space section, and then click "Delete my space".

5. Click "OK".

In deleting a Space you have to consider the following:

- You cannot retrieve the space or any of the content, including photos that you had on your space.

- You cannot create a new space using the same URL for 60 days. If you want to keep your URL, edit your existing space rather than creating a new one.

You are a valuable customer to MSN and we are glad to give you consistent and effective service.

Thank you for using MSN Spaces.

Regards,

xxxxx

Okay, I know how to delete the thing. I would if I could get the username back.

well that sucks! this is probably the only thing keeping me away from getting a totally new email address. I got too many random people on my contact list so I probably would like to have a revamped contact list.

Those who are getting server errors from the live-int websites should change their language settings in IE to "en-us". And how do you get http://get.live.com/spaces/overview working? All I see is a blank page with the "flair" background. http://get.live-int.com/spaces/overview works but...

    • Apple reluctantly forces strict new age checks on Texas users starting today

      By zikalify · Posted

      Apple reluctantly forces strict new age checks on Texas users starting today by Paul Hill Apple will begin enforcing the Texas Age Assurance Law (SB 2420) following a recent court ruling that lifted an injunction on SB 2420. Starting June 4 (today), Apple will enforce strict age-verification and parental-consent rules for new Apple accounts created in Texas. This move will affect children under 18 who go to download apps or attempt to make in-app purchases. Apple previously expressed privacy concerns related to this law, but compliance is now mandatory for the company, nevertheless. Apple will use several APIs to follow the law. Principally, the Declared Age Range API will fetch the specific user age bracket (Under 13, 13-15, 16-17, or 18+) and a verification method. The Significant Change API (PermissionKit) will trigger a system dialog for parental consent if an app gets a major update or an age-rating shift. There is also a new property type in StoreKit that allows developers to automatically check when their app’s age rating has changed on a user’s device and then use the Significant Change API to request parental consent. Finally, App Store Server Notifications can be configured to tell developers when a parent revokes consent, blocking app launches. To ensure they are ready for these changes, developers must immediately use Apple’s sandbox testing environment to validate these APIs in their apps. For any developers out there finding this to be inconvenient, get used to it. Other regions, such as Utah, Louisiana, and Brazil, are looking at, or have implemented, similar rules.
