iPhone users in Europe lose the laptop


and stay connected anytime, anywhere.

Do you remember where you were that last time you needed to access
your work or home computer, but couldn’t? Good News: Those days are over.

Consider these true stories:


A real state dealer admits: “The other day I forgot to attach a document with the description and photos of a flat I was
renting. I do have access to my work mail on my iPhone already, but the document I needed to attach was saved on my
computer. To close the deal, it was very important to send the attachment immediately. With LogMeIn, I was able to grab
the file, attach it to an e-mail and send it from my work computer.”

A film lover explains: “I was at the terrace of a café with a friend and we were discussing the movie “Gattaca”. After
this discussion, I wanted to watch it again. So I took my iPhone, connected to my laptop that was still on at home. I
launched the download on a Video on Demand website. I didn’t have to wait to watch this film when I got home, the
movie was already downloaded! It’s an application that makes life easier. “

A controller : “With LogMeIn Ignition for iPhone I have more freedom of movement. I sometimes check my computer
from my iPhone using Ignition. And I do it from unusual places while traveling, at a party or on the road. Now I can do my
job in less than 5 minutes from everywhere and I am able to better balance my work responsibilities and my personal life.”

All of these situations have two things in common


1) Each person used their iPhone creatively to extend the reach of their laptop or desktop computer.
2) Those iPhones were running LogMeIn Ignition, an app that lets you access your computer from your iPhone or iPod touch.

In the next few pages, you’ll see more ways iPhone users are connecting to their PCs and Macs, anytime, anywhere.

keep everything under control.

“This September I was at the

Venezuelan business earthquake struck 50 km from
man always on the go where I was. The quake was quite strong
and caused some damage where I was. I
immediately used LogMeIn Ignition with
iPhone to access the webcam of my business.
I could check that over there everything
was in order and I relaxed knowing that
nothing was damaged. And as I am
writing this, I’m using LogMeIn Ignition for
iPhone while on a ferry going to Montevideo
from Buenos Aires, and I just checked that
everything is under control at my business.“

iPhone On the Go
Richard Hillsdon reported from London
“We managed to sort out a customer’s urgent problem, whilst sitting
on the London Eye enjoying the view!”

Kevin Leidecker weighed in from Paris


“At the base of the Eiffel Tower in Paris, they have a free wi-fi zone. I was able to reinstall a printer driver on our cash
register POS system that had crashed. I had a neat time thinking to myself, ‘all these tourists and I’m still working.’
Then I had a crêpe and everything was right again…”

Dan Mulroy was in France, too


“I used Ignition to remote into a computer in California after my laptop battery died while I was travelling in France.”

Dr. Patrick Couve de Murville reports from France


“My patients are astonished when I can use my iPhone to access their medical records
that are available on my Mac Pro back at the practice.”

Remote Access in the land of the midnight sun

“While I was away on a trip to Bergen, the


projectionist at our cinema in Alta, 1350 km Rune Karolius is a
away, had difficulty with a digital cinema technical manager of
screening which was due to start a few minutes later. several cinemas in the
I used Ignition for iPhone over 3G from a bench in a north of Norway
shopping street to log in to my office Mac 1200 km across
the country. From my office machine, I was able to access
the digital cinema server through our closed company
network that is an additional 170 km from the office, and
was able to solve the problem in time for the screening to
start. Without Ignition we would have had to delay, and
possibly cancel, the screening.”

the help of LogMeIn!“
