WebDAV update is now available!

The AirStash WebDAV software update is now available! Version 1.0.1 of the AirStash software adds support for the WebDAV protocol, which makes AirStash the easiest way to transfer documents to and from your iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch. Using compatible applications such as Pages, Keynote, Numbers, OmniGraffle, and GoodReader, you can transfer documents to and from AirStash to share with PC or Mac users via USB, or share your documents with other iPad users wirelessly. With the WebDAV software update, it’s now possible to use the iPad as a mobile productivity tool and leave the laptop at home.

This AirStash software update also significantly improves media playback. Higher quality files are now playable, and it’s now possible to stream video to multiple devices at the same time.

The update is available immediately on our software update page. Update instructions and a video tutorial on downloading the new software and updating the AirStash are provided.

WebDAV update public beta available!

A public beta of the WebDAV firmware update for AirStash is now available! This update adds support for reading and writing iWork documents on the AirStash through the WebDAV protocol. It also improves compatibility and speed of media streaming, including support for streaming video to multiple devices.

We encourage customers who wish to use WebDAV with iWork or have had issues with media compatibility to try this version. If you encounter issues with this beta, it is possible to revert to the last release of the AirStash software.

For information on downloading this version and a list of workarounds for known issues, please see our public beta page. For instructions on using WebDAV with iWork applications (Keynote, Numbers, and Pages), see our knowledge base.

WebDAV update and photo import app coming soon!

At CES 2011 we announced and demonstrated two upcoming AirStash features: WebDAV support for reading and writing files to compatible apps and an app for iPhone and iPad devices to import multiple photos at once. Both of these features are in beta testing and are on track for a release during the month of February.

The WebDAV firmware update allows compatible apps such as Apple’s iWork suite for the iPad to read and write documents from the AirStash. With WebDAV, files on the AirStash can also be transferred to and from a PC or Mac using the free program Cyberduck.

With this firmware update, we’ve also increased compatibility with different video formats as well. Videos which are optimized for streaming are still recommended for best performance and quickest load times. To find out how to convert your videos for viewing on AirStash, read the instructions in our knowledge base.

Our iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad app allows batch import of photos from a SD card at either full size or in a reduced resolution for on-screen viewing. You can also easily browse and import photos one by one. This app will be available in the App Store during February pending Apple’s approval.
