iPad -Use Dropbox
The article will provide a user with information on how to use dropbox.
If a user wants to use a dropbox then he/she has to follow the guidance as provided below:
In order to use a dropbox, a user has to download the software and setup an account.. A user can use the same email address and password on both the Mac and iPad to link both of them.
A user can move files from the Mac to the iPad.
If a user puts files or folders into the Mac’s Dropbox folder then he/she will notice them on the iPad. IF the Dropbox is installed on multiple Macs or PC’s the files will be copied. A user can tap a file to open it in Dropbox. The program displays a number of file types. These files include images, music and video files, Microsoft Office files, PDFs, iWork files and HTML and text files.
Now a user can tap the Send icon in the toolbar if he/she wants to choose an application that can open the file. For example, if a user has a Word file and want to view it in Pages then he/she can tap the file to view it with Dropbox and then tap the Send icon in the toolbar and then tap Pages. Now the Dropbox will transfer the file to Pages and Pages will import it.
How to move files from iPad to the Mac?
If a user wants to move files or documents off of the iPad then he/she can use a similar method as mentioned above for iWork apps. Alternatively a user can send the document by email. Please note that the dropbox doesn’t sync files from the iPad to his/her Dropbox account. If the app a user is using to view the document works with File Sharing, as the iWork apps do, a user can copy it back to the Mac using iTunes.
