Apple has changed/upgraded/renamed the .Mac service to a new offering named "MobileMe" ...
http://www.apple.com/mobileme/ The primary difference between .Mac and MobileMe is that the latter now supports dynamic "push" synchronization between subscribed Mac OS X, Windows and iPhone/iPod Touch systems. I'm sure there are other differences too, but that's the big one far as I'm concerned. (Edit an address on your iPhone and it should be reflected on the other systems almost immediately, and vice versa). That should have little or nothing to do with your file problem, but it's always possible. The changeover was a bit rough, from what my buddy on that team says, and there are glitches. Apple has extended all .Mac customers' accounts with an extra month's free service to compensate for the inconveniences. If you run Software Update (from the System Prefs panel) you might find an update for your system specifically to prepare it for the updated service. If you continue to have problems with your service, call Apple support or stop by an Apple Retail Store with your laptop.
