Share single files or entire folders, to one friend, or the whole family. You decide. Say goodbye to slow e-mail attachments and time consuming one-file-at-a-time sharing using instant messengers.

icloud for Firefox is currently in early alpha stage and still under development.

It is possible to run icloud in Firefox, however, Internet Explorer is still the recommended browser if you need speed and reliability in icloud.

At this time the Firefox version is still in early Alpha

All functionality of icloud is not available and the speed is not as crisp as in IE

icloud is using a lot of XML technologies due to its XML Virtual Machine. The extensive support of XML, XSLT and Xpath needed by icloud is unfortunately not supported by all browsers yet. Internet Explorer has the best support and for Firefox we have managed to add the functionality using a custom developed Java applet, extending Firefox with more XML functionality.
