.Mac
Go Anywhere with .Mac
It’s not unusual for people to have a Mac at home and a PC at the o∑ ce; use a
computer at a friend’s house; or spend time on a shared computer at an o∑ ce,
Internet cafe, or service bureau almost anywhere in the world. The challenge comes
when you want access to the information you use every day, like your email, contact
information, and bookmarks. .Mac makes it easy to work on any computer with an
Internet connection, with a newly redesigned interface that puts the services you
use most at your fi ngertips.
Send and Receive Mail
Because .Mac Mail uses IMAP, your mail is kept in a single location. You have access to
the same folders and message archives whether you are using Mac OS X Mail on your
own Mac or accessing your email from a browser on another computer.
If you send or receive messages while you’re away from your Mac, they will appear
in your folders the next time you use Mail on your desktop. With .Mac Mail, you don’t
need to worry about having messages scattered in di∂ erent locations or remember
to forward mail to yourself for archiving.
Access Your Files
Store important fi les on your iDisk, then access them from anywhere at any time.
.Mac iDisk makes it as simple to use and update your fi les as it is to work with fi les
on your hard drive. Just open your iDisk and drag fi les into your iDisk folders. When
you’re away from your Mac, you can use a supported browser on a Mac or PC to
upload fi les to your iDisk or download them to a hard drive.

If you regularly work at
another location, install the iDisk Utility for Windows XP or use the Mac OS X Finder
to access your iDisk and drag fi les just as if you were working on your own desktop.
