Sync

                                                                                                                                                                 

When Cloud Drive is active on your computer, the contents of your Cloud Drive folder are synchronized with your cloud account and mobile devices. You can then access your files easily and quickly from anywhere. You can also choose to link only specific computers on which you wish to keep files in sync.    


To sync files from your IDrive account,

  1. Sign in to the IDrive application with your username and password.
  2. Go to the Cloud Drive tab and click Enable Sync. This will initiate sync and open the Cloud Drive folder on your computer.

  3. Drag and drop files to the Cloud Drive folder from your computer. Files added to the Cloud Drive folder will be synced to all your linked devices.

Note: To link a computer to your IDrive account via Cloud Drive, sign in to the account via the IDrive desktop application on this computer and enable sync. 

Stop Sync

Once you stop Sync, the files on your computer will not be in sync with other linked devices.
To stop sync on your computer,

  1. Sign in to the IDrive application with your username and password.
  2. Click the IDrive status item on the menu bar
  3. Click Cloud Drive > Stop Sync.
