14 DAY TRIAL // New versions of Apple’s iOS applications, Find My iPhone and MobileMe iDisk are now available for download from the iTunes App Store, both updates fixing several issues encountered by customers, as well as adding support for new devices.
First and foremost, Apple released Find My iPhone 1.0.1 to add support for the new iPod touch.
Translation fixes have been made for French, German, and Japanese languages, while various bug fixes are also scattered around the new version.
Available for MobileMe customers, the Find My iPhone iOS app can locate your iPhone or iPad on a map, display a message and optionally play a sound for two minutes at full volume, remotely set a passcode lock on your device, and even remotely wipe it.
Find My iPhone currently still requires iOS 3.1.3 as the minimum firmware version.

MobileMe iDisk, the application allowing users to view and share the files on their iDisk right from their iPad, iPhone or iPod touch, has been promoted to version 1.2.1.
The update reportedly fixes an issue that prevented package files (e.g. some Keynote files) from opening in the corresponding iPad apps, and shows rotated images in the correct orientation when opened.
Various stability and performance improvements are also included in the new package, Apple says.
This application also requires the user to have a MobileMe subscription.
Using the app, customers can view files on their iDisk, including iWork, Microsoft Office, PDFs, QuickTime movies, JPEGs and more.
Apple is yet to allow customers to view files larger than 20MB, although exceptions may be encountered.
The application facilitates file sharing, and allows quick access to recently viewed documents and public folders.
MobileMe iDisk is compatible with iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad and also requires iOS 3.1.3 or later.
