What happens when you wipe your iPhone with Exchange
Fri Jan 28 14:04:32 2011 EST (-0500 GMT)If you’ve ever wondered what happens when you wipe an iPhone via MS Exchange here’s my video.
I hope you don’t find yourself in a situation where you need to wipe your MS Exchange linked iPhone because you lost it or it was stollen, but I think everyone who has their phone connected to Exchange at work or Apple’s MobileMe service appreciates this kind of piece of mind. I know I really value knowing that if someone’s got my phone they at least don’t have my data like E-Mails, contacts, pictures and whatever else is on my most personal device.
In the case of MS Exchange 2010 here is what the confirmation E-Mail looks like afterwards.
If you don’t have your phone linked to Apple’s MobileMe service I’d recommend the Exchange based options that you might have through work (or a BlackBerry Enterprise server) or Microsoft’s hosted Exchange services or Google’s Apps for domains premium services.
