Apple's MobileMe 1.1 Review, Screenshots

Apple launches new MobileMe 1.1, Apple's MobileMe 1.1 review, Specifications and Screenshots.

July 25, 2008 (MacWorld) Synchronization is hard. Apple Inc. has thrown resources at this problem over time, and the latest incarnation, MobileMe, adds the capability to synchronize some data to devices and other Macs lickety-split, the way Microsoft's Exchange Server performs in the corporate world. In fact, Apple calls MobileMe "Exchange for the rest of us." MobileMe definitely comes closer to fulfilling the promise made by the six-year-old .Mac (which it replaced), though it has more than a few rough edges.

The MobileMe Web interface is wonderfully interactive; just click and drag to create a new event in the calendar, and the times update as you drag.Apple acknowledged that the company is being "conservative" by disabling syncing by default when you sign into your account and that the service isn't designed for repeatedly signing in and out of multiple accounts.Also, MobileMe does not currently sync published or subscribed iCal calendars to iPhones or to me.com. An Apple tech note points out that calendars are, in fact, synchronized.

Apple MobileMe, every iPhoner must have heard of it, especially with all the huff and puff over its failure when first launched.

With Apple’s MobileMe the iPhoner can sync their contacts, calendars, and bookmarks all automatically between your Apple iPhone,
