.Mac

Become a .Mac Family

If you’ve ever found your bookmarks cluttered with your teenage son’s online game

sites or your iDisk ﬁ lling up with ﬁ les your daughter is using for a college ﬁ lmmaking

class, you’ll understand the value of separate .Mac accounts. However, you may be

reluctant to buy individual accounts for all the members of your family.

The .Mac Family Pack provides the perfect mix of privacy and family sharing—at an

attractive price. Here are some examples of how families can enjoy .Mac:

• You, your spouse, your game-playing teenager, and your ﬁ lmmaking daughter use

completely separate .Mac accounts for less than half the price of four individual

memberships. Each person has total ﬂ exibility to use .Mac services, without interfering

with the resources or settings of the other family members.

• You’re pulling together photos and remembrances for your parents’ 50th wedding

anniversary celebration. Because a Shared folder for the family appears on each

person’s iDisk, your family members can add their own contributions in minutes.

Separate Accounts for Five Family Members

You and up to four family members will have separate .Mac accounts, each with a

private email address. Because each account also has separate iDisk storage, every

family member can enjoy his or her own personal website; sync bookmarks and

contacts; back up important ﬁ les; and start a group.

The .Mac Family Pack includes a main account and four sub-accounts. The main

account has 1GB of storage shared between Mail and iDisk. Each sub-account has

250MB of storage, for a total of 2GB for the ﬁ ve accounts. Storage can be ﬂ exibly

allocated between Mail and iDisk in each of the ﬁ ve accounts.

Shared iDisk Folder for Easy Collaboration

For times when togetherness is welcome, a Shared folder on each family member’s iDisk

lets you share photos, movies, documents, and other ﬁ les with drag-and-drop ease.

Upgrade Your Account

Individual members can now easily upgrade to a Family Pack membership, with the

upgrade price prorated on a daily basis. For example, members who are six months

into an individual membership will pay only 50 percent of the Family Pack upgrade

cost; the upgrade does not change the expiration date of the account.
