Chapter 17: Managing Files with Dropbox
After completing this chapter, you will be able to:
- Understand that Dropbox is a popular cloud-based solution for moving files to and from the iPad as well as the rest of your computers and mobile devices.
- Get your account by logging on to dropbox.com, where accounts are free until you exceed the gigabyte Dropbox gives you for free.
- Install Dropbox on a Macintosh or a PC in addition to installing it on your iPad.
- Make private folders that are accessible only to you, or share selected folders with other users.
- Find the Dropbox setting to increase local storage, which determines how many recently viewed files are stored on your iPad for offline use.
