Hi Ross, You'll want to set org-mobile-directory to something like /Volumes/rosslaird/org (or wherever your iDisk is mounted, typically under /Volumes/mobilemeusername). You can poke around and find your org folder under /Volumes to identify the precise location.
Your iDisk folder should then sync with MobileMe either automatically when it sees a change, or periodically if you have it configured to only sync every N minutes, and you should be in business. The /scp (and ssh variants) use TRAMP, which connects over SSH to your server to copy the files. iDisk doesn't support this, so you'll need to use the alternate approach above. If you have any trouble, let me know. Thanks, Richard On Wed, Feb 17, 2010 at 1:47 PM, Ross A.
