  Thanks guys. I hope CPU usage has been reduced. I love Mesh but it's hard to use it on a weak (2 GHz) CPU! Keep up the good work!

  Good stuff, the update worked fine for me on a couple of computers, a Win 7 RC netbook and my work Vista machine. Question, though: In the file sync options, is there a reason why I'm only able to choose "When files are added or modified" or "Never with this device"? The other three options are always grayed out for me.

  And the resolve conflicts dialog is still a mess on Windows 7. Come on, is it really that hard to fix. And even if it is, then at least mention it in your post. It seems that you won't even recognize the fact that issue exists.

  mmmm. "Could not open Live Desktop.  Could not find the URL for the Live Desktop." Have reinstalled and re-started but this update has definitely messed something up for me. I'll raise a bug.

  Would it be possible to keep the installer (exe) files on mesh.com up to date? You still offer an outdated build which then has to be updated to this new one... uncool. Gregor

  More space, please. 5GB too small. Why not merge the 25GB skydrive + 5GB Mesh into 30GB shared?

  Hello, thx for this stuff. When the drag'n'drop is coming? I use Mesh on my personal laptop and on a computer on which I can't install Mesh so this feature sounds pretty cool for me.

  Drag and drop is currently available for Mesh Live Desktop (requires installing the Live Desktop enhancements).  Live Mesh can be installed at www.mesh.com.  Additional information regarding Mesh can be found at http://connect.microsoft.com/livemesh.

  Beta?  My grad school seminar doesn't think so!  They thought I was a geek until they tried it.  Now, they use it as if it's a natural extension of their lives.  It's just there, like their cell phones.   I am slightly kidding, and understand there are still issues, but it needs to be publicized more.

  I think its a great service and I use it as an auto backup and remote desktop service but I think for full potential the available space should be increased to at least 10gb or the 25 gb that other sites like Skydrive have. Keep up the good work.

  Why do I get notification that updates are available, but there is nothing posted here about what the update is?  I just had one today.  It doesn't happen for all computers that I use at the same time, it usually ends up staggered over a few days, before it occurs for each one.

  I love Live Mesh and it helped me out, when my HDD crashed. I don't know if you can fix the minor glitches with the windows 7 maximize features (when you drag the window to the top side of the screen), but that is really a detail and I have no other problems with Live Mesh. Thanks for your hard work!

  The most recent Live Mesh update was for the PC (0.9.4014.4) on May 11th.  There has not been a version update since that time.

  @Live Mesh Team: ...update was for the PC (0.9.4014.4)... Although 0.9.4014.4 had already been received on 5/11/09 it came down again today (6/3/09) and took about half a second to install/update -- think y'all need to look into this. thx e

  I keep getting "updates are available" messages, then when I click install I get a "some updates could not be installed" error, on both my vista and win7 machines. I already have 0.9.4014.4 installed.

  The message "updates are available" may appear as the Live Mesh Team performs some backend work.  The service is simply checking if you have the most recent update (0.9.4014.4) and if so, will not make any changes to your installation. You can always find the current version numbers at http://connect.microsoft.com/livemesh.

  The Live Mesh for Mobile Beta has been opened to the public.  If you have a mobile phone with Windows Mobile 6.0 or higher, you can add the device to your mesh.  Live Mesh for Mobile access requires the following invitation code: https://www.mesh.com/Web/Promo.aspx?pcode=Mob_FCFS1.
