    I know that .Mac included the back to my mac feature, but does MobileMe?

    I looked on Apple's site and it doesn't appear to which would be weird (and foolish) of apple.

    Thanks!

    Yes, backtomymac still works under mobile me. I used it the other day to get tech support in the Apple store. Beats the heck out of lugging a machine in to get support. Plus the problem dealt with stuff not working on my network and I wanted to show just how buggy stuff was. To me, back to my mac is one of the main benefits of MM. I only wish I could use it via a browser window rather than having to use a Mac. This could mean I could literally get to my machine from anywhere, even a windows box. :eek:

    It's included.

    Ironically.....I haven't tried to figure out how to use BTMM until tonight and I have to say I'm utterly blown away!

    I've been trying to find a way to share my main iPhoto library on my MacBook to my Air, and using BTMM to do this works perfectly!!

    I'm absolutely giddy with excitement......AGAIN! :) I keep figuring out stuff like this that just makes me love my Mac(s) even more.

    If you do a google search there's a way to get the back to my mac feature without paying for mobileme and it's actually pretty simple. I forget though exactly what it is so it can't be THAT simple haha. But it can be done.
