Apple Releases MobileMe 1.1 for Leopard

by , 11:35 PM EDT, July 12th, 2008

Apple quietly released MobileMe 1.1 for Mac OS X 10.5.4 Saturday evening. The Preference Pane update improves MobileMe and Leopard compatibility, but strays from Apple's standard update process and does not use the Software Update application.


Goodbye .Mac, hello MobileMe 1.1

To install MobileMe 1.1, which changes the .Mac Preference Pane to the MobileMe Preference Pane, launch System Preferences and select .Mac. Mac OS X should automatically update the Preference Pane.

MobileMe 1.1 is a free update and requires Mac OS X 10.5.4.

How nice that Apple has updated MobileMe for Leopard. But what about Tiger?

What we really need is a MobileMe service that actually does what Apple says it does. At the moment, it is pretty useless.

After selecting .mac in System Preferences then it use Software Update. It prompted me to quit Mail before continuing with installing the update.

I am too tired to mess around with it tonight, I am for the arms of Morpheus, chat with you all in the morning.

After registering for a trial version of MobileMe, I used Software Update to update the System Preferences from .Mac to MobileMe. It worked the same as all other software updates.

After reading the headline, I checked Software Update, and it definitely shows a 'Mac OS X Update For MobileMe', now.

Apple changing .Mac.com to Mobile Me is giving me 20 GBs of iDisk space instead of 10 GBs. All of my .mac created web pages are the same and everything still works OK accept iSynk, in Tiger, witch is a big let down for me.
