Hi all,

Currenlty I'm on the trial version of .Mac and so I do not get all the goodies. However, I would like to know, does fully paid members get an actual online calendar to view their iCal info that has been isync'ed?

That is, if I'm away from my Mac and do NOT have access to another Mac, can I still view my calendar through a web browser on any plaftform?

Edited: Oops, let me clarify slightly here. I understand there is a "publish" function in iCal which I can use to "view" my calender online via a web browser. What I'm interested in is, is there also an ability to edit the calendar online and iSync the changes back into iCal?

And also, still relating to .Mac, can I send mail with a different email address as the reply address (i.e. not my mac.com address).

Thanks.

Not Sure on the email question, but I will take the iCal/.Mac one.

iCal syncing only allows you to sync your iCal calendars to other computers, for example, work computer to home computer with iCal on each. You can't currently edit calendars online and then sync them back like you can your Address Book information. Just a side note...I would with Apple now charging they would add more features...like calendar editing.

Unfortunately you cannot edit your calendars that you publish.

Hopefully that comes in a future revision...I just noticed that they finally give the capability to edit .Mac Homepages made through iPhoto in iPhoto 4 that you publish...
