Mobile Me Update?

[FlintAlt2]

Seems like there are Mobile Me updates.

Today when I went to log in to Mobile Me I noticed that the iDisk image had changed from Pink to blue. The iDisk picture whilst logged in has also changed colour.

The account settings icon has also changed from a silhouette of a person to a OS X preference look alike.

Top right hand corner seems to have a ? within a circle and a different "logout" text.

Im hoping I'm not going crazy and that these things are new

Yes - they've changed it., Though haven't mentioned anything on their blog though http://www.apple.com/mobileme/news/

The account icon has changed also - to the gears like everywhere else...

On a side note - My iDisk usage has been reporting the wrong amount for about a week showing 1.5MB of usage when it is 4GB... I keep 3 Mac's in sync and have turned off, turned back on local iDisk sync and no help on reporting proper amount of usage...

Now it all makes sense - they are tinkering with MobileMe again...

I wish they would tell their own Chat agents...

Apple has posted a support document outlining a number of recent changes made to its MobileMe subscription service. Among the more significant changes are the ability to maintain rich text formatting when replying to or forwarding messages, the ability for iPhone and iPod touch users to search all messages (including those stored in the MobileMe "cloud"), and the ability to merge contacts and calendars during first sync with an iPhone or iPod touch.

me.com toolbar
- Help is now accessible directly from the toolbar

Mail
- Forwarding or replying to HTML (rich text) messages maintains the message’s original formatting instead of converting it to plain text
- Unread message count is displayed next to inbox and each folder
- Resolves an issue where an email alias may not appear correctly in Mac OS X Mail
- On an iPhone or iPod touch, a user can search all messages including those stored on the Mobileme "cloud" (server). Search in the From, To, and Subject fields is supported (iPhone OS 3.0 required)

Gallery
- iPhone 3GS users can publish videos to a Gallery album
- If no Gallery albums exist, an album is automatically created when publishing a photo or video from iPhone (iPhone OS 3.0 is required)

iDisk
- Uploading to a Public folder with a web browser correctly shows completion status
- Resolves an issue where an email address may not be recognized as valid when using file sharing

Account
- Resolves an issue preventing the setup of some personal domains for iWeb hosting
- Resolves an issue preventing some expired accounts from being converted to Family Pack sub-accounts
- Active accounts with no upgrades can be converted to Family Pack sub-accounts

Push Contacts and Push Calendar
Note: iPhone OS 3.0 is required for these improvements.
- Option to merge existing contacts and calendars on first sync from iPhone/iPod touch
- Deleting a MobileMe account or turning off contact and calendar sync on iPhone/iPod touch allows users to keep a copy of the data on the device
- iPhone contacts that sync with MobileMe maintain ring tone associations

And yet I went to the site on my iPhone and still can't get to it.

That would explain not only the icon different look, but why MM Mail failed for me earlier today.

I was really hoping they would add Email Rules (or smart folders) so that I can organize my mail. I am really suprised this has not been added.

What do you mean. It worked before but you got a warning. You still get the warning.

===========================

Internet Explorer is not fully supported.
Internet Explorer 7 and 8 have known compatibility issues with modern web standards which affect Web 2.0 applications such as MobileMe.

You can use Internet Explorer, but you will not have access to all MobileMe features and will experience slower performance.

For the best MobileMe experience, please use the latest versions of Firefox or Safari.
