MobileFiles - Accessing your iDisk on the go

Monday, November 3rd, 2008

I recently looked for a way to get to my iDisk (part of MobileMe) from my iPhone and found a free app on Apple’s App Store, called MobileFiles which does exactly that.

MobileFiles can access your local files on the iPhone and multiple MobileMe iDisks, including your friends public folders. When you drill down to an actual file in the folder structure you can view many of the documents. (more…)

Fail Whale - MobileMe style

After the first days of using the iPhone 2.0 software - which I use in combination with the MobileMe service - there obviously still are problems with the “push” service. At some point my iPhone doesn’t sync with the service anymore. The only solution is to reboot the phone. (more…)

Fail Whale - MobileMe style

I guess this is what most people are experiencing at the moment. The way from .Mac to MobileMe has been a rocky road since yesterday morning. Some of people aren’t even able to access their email, if they’re lucky they can at least read it.
