How to Use It

Simple, Open your Web Browser, and browse to the Indigo Web server.  From the root of the web server add /findmyiphone.

For Example:

http://entertainmac.:8080/findmyiphone

The Plugin will then attempt to login to MobileMe, find your iPhone via the Find Your iPhone Service, and then compare your iPhone’s Lat & Long to the Latitude & Longitude in Indigo.  It will then do some calculations, and give an estimate of the straight line (as the bird flies) distance between your target & current location.

This site, http://jan.ucc.nau.edu/~cvm/latlon_find_location.html, contains information and links on finding your latitude and longitude, by street address, city, etc…  Just plug the values in, and the script will take over from there…

  1. I followed the instructed as described, but I get an “Undefined Page Request” error when I open the findmyiphone page of the web server. I do get the messages below in the log though.

    WebServer enabled browser access to plugin path “plugins/findmyiphone/css”
    WebServer enabled browser access to plugin path “plugins/findmyiphone/js”

    1. For now, I am holding off on FindMyiPhone until Indigo 5 is released… The main issue is the changes that Apple has made to MobileMe… And that I’d rather program in Python than Perl & Applescript…
