I was really impatient to try the iDisk file sharing function demonstrated during the WWDC keynote, as with the previous .Mac similar function it was almost not usable. I was very disappointed to notice that the function was simply NOT available on MobileMe even though it was demoed during the WWDC!! Despite the clear improvement of MobileMe when compared to .Mac, I decided to contact Apple Support, hereafter is the answer:If it is difficult to define if there is more satisfied users than annoyed ones, MobileMe is clearly not being unanimously acclaimed, ant not fulfilling the needs of previous .Mac users. Some of them are even trying to get the months remaining on their subscription to be paid back as they do not intend to keep using the service as there are not satisfied anymore.
Dear customer,
Thanks for your interest in iDisk file sharing, unfortunately this function is currently not available on MobileMe.
When MobileMe was announced, the iDisk file sharing was mentioned as an existing function, but on the MobileMe webpage is was stated that the list of functions is susceptible to be modified. When MobileMe became available on July 10th, the iDisk file sharing was not included.
We are sorry for this inconvenient.
However, you can use the Public folder of your iDisk to share files...
I am not fully satisfied with the answer, and I think .Mac users could have been better informed and treated before the launch of MobileMe.
