Take Control of MobileMe
$20.99
Book
MobileMe has become a Swiss-army knife of online services, offering not only a whizzy "push" data syncing service for tracking calendar, contact, and bookmark info on a variety of devices, but also email services, online storage and file sharing, Web hosting, and more. Take Control of MobileMe helps you understand the features and get set up, and then it dives into the details of real-life projects.
Take Control of MobileMe covers syncing - what to expect, what kinds of data besides calendar and contact information sync, handling problems, and more. The ebook also examines various ways to use an iDisk for storing and sharing files; setting up a MobileMe email account; accessing and updating calendar and contact data on the MobileMe site; using the Gallery feature along with iLife '09 to put photos and movies online with an attractive layout and interface; publishing a Web site to MobileMe's servers; and how to use Back to My Mac to get at the files and screen of one of your Macs while using another.
Back to My Mac: This book devotes six pages to Back to My Mac. However, fully covering this feature would take another book, so we wrote Take Control of Back to My Mac.
"Kissell cuts through [the syncing] thicket cleanly, with clear step-by-step instructions, with key caveats included. The book also provides great detail—good for peace of mind..." —The Cherry Creek News
