MobileMe Control Panel for Windows updated

by CNET staff
An update to the Windows MobileMe Control Panel for Windows users that subscribe to MobileMe to sync their calendars and contacts with their iPhone has reportedly repaired issues with syncing. The update is especially recommended for Windows users on corporate networks that use proxy servers.

This update is available at the MobileMe website or as part of the iTunes 8.2 update. Apple describes the supported proxy types in a Knowledge Base Article:

"Supported proxy server types include:
  • Web proxy servers (HTTP)
  • Secure Web proxy (HTTPS)
  • SOCKS proxy servers (see note below)
  • HTTP/HTTPS proxy servers that require authentication
  • Proxy bypass lists
  • Proxy auto-configuration (PAC) files"
