Allocating iDisk and email storage

 Print Support

Individual MobileMe subscriptions come with 20 gigabytes (GB) of combined email and iDisk storage. By default, your storage is set to 10 GB for MobileMe Mail and 10 GB for iDisk; however, you can allocate the storage space differently.

For example, if you need more storage space for your email messages, you can set your MobileMe Mail storage capacity to 15 GB and reserve 5 GB of storage for your iDisk.

To change how much space is used for email or your iDisk:

  1. If you’re not already logged in to MobileMe Account, go to www.me.com, log in, and click the Account button in the toolbar at the top of the window.

    2. Image of Account button

  2. Click Storage Settings in the sidebar (on the left).

  3. In the Personal Storage section, choose a new amount from the pop-up menu to the right of Mail (in the Allocated column). The remaining amount is automatically assigned to your iDisk.

  4. Click Save.

If you have an individual subscription, you can also increase your combined email and iDisk storage to a total of 40 GB or 60 GB by purchasing more storage.
