Apple has added a few new features to MobileMe, their subscription based internet service. Probably the most noticable new features is the inclusion of iDisk Public Folders. Here are some of the release notes from Apple’s support documentation:
- New Public folder page located at http://public.me.com/{membername} now matches the look of me.com and supports drag and drop of files between folders (when enabled for visitors)
- Allowing visitors to upload, move, and delete files on your Public folder can now be set from www.me.com/idisk
- An iDisk Public folder password can now be set from www.me.com/idisk
- When logging in to a password-protected Public folder with a web browser, entering the generic username “public” is no longer required
- Adds ability to connect to another member’s Public folder while viewing your own iDisk at me.com
In addition to public folders, this update places a “Find my iPhone” icon in the main navigation bar, gives it a direct URL so it can be accessed quickly, and fixes a bug that caused trouble with exporting multiple contacts.





You’ll remember back at the end of July that a new MobileMe status page was setup at Apple. It is authored by one ‘David G‘, and was setup to provide the latest news and updates on the condition of MobileMe… and I say ‘condition’ because we all know how ’sick’ it was upon the launch. To date, the update page has only seen 3 new posts from David G, on July 25th, 27th and 29th respectively.
