Adding Files and Folders to Online Storage

Date Submitted: 8-20-2012

Online Storage lets you upload files from any computer, organize them into folders, and access them any time.

Adding Files to Online Storage

There are two methods you can use to add files to your Online Storage.

To Upload Files to Online Storage

To back up or share files, upload them to Online Storage. You can upload as many files as your plan's storage space allows, up to 2GB at a time.

  1. Log in to Online Storage.
  2. Select the destination folder from the Folder menu.
  3. Click Add File. Or, click the destination folder, and then drag and drop files from your desktop into the folder.
  4. In the Select Files to Upload window, locate the file you want, and then click Upload. Repeat this step for each file you want to upload.
  5. NOTE: If you installed Workspace Desktop, you can upload entire folders. Select the folder you want to upload, and then click Open. For more information, see Installing and Using Workspace Desktop for Online Storage.

To Add Files Using the Drag and Drop Feature

The drag and drop feature works for as many files as your plan's storage space allows, up to 1GB at a time. Supported browsers include Mozilla® Firefox 3.6 and later, Safari® 5 and later, and Google® Chrome 7 and later.
