Q: Can I give windows users access to the public forder on my iDisk?
A: Sure, all it takes is the right URL for any web browser. The general link is as follows:
"http://homepage.mac.com/member_name/.Public/filename"
just use your member name to replace the member_name portion and use the name of the file you want them to see to replace filename. Files and folders that are in folders on your iDisk other than the Sites folder must have the top-level folder name, preceded by a period, and appended to the URL prefix.
The only the following folders can be accessed are:
- Music
- Movies
- Pictures
- Public
- Sites
But remember, if you give someone access to a folder other than Public, they need to have your password so the best option is to put the files you want to share in the Public folder.
