Hi Kimsan Getting started with Dropbox Welcome to Dropbox!
Unlike other programs, Dropbox doesn't have a complicated interface to learn. It's built right into your desktop! Here's how to get started: Step 1: Drag and drop any file or folder into your Dropbox folder. Step 2: Once your file/folder is inside your Dropbox folder, the program immediately starts syncing it to our secure servers. Once this has finished, the file's icon is marked with a green check. Your file is now safely backed up online and also accessible from the Dropbox website. (http://www.getdropbox.com) Step 3: Install Dropbox (http://www.getdropbox.com/install) on other computers you use, and they'll also receive a copy of the files you've put in your Dropbox. That's it! Now that Dropbox is watching your file, any changes you make will sync up instantly and automatically. This gives you the freedom to work on any computer you choose. For more help adding files to Dropbox, see here: https://www.getdropbox.com/help/90 Happy Dropboxing! - The Dropbox Team Using the Public folder. The Public Folder lets you easily share single files in your Dropbox. Any file in you put in this folder gets its own Internet link so that you can share it with others-- even non-Dropbox users! These links work even if your computer's turned off. Step 1: Drop a file into the Public folder. Step 2: Right-click/control-click this file, then choose Dropbox > Copy Public Link. This copies the Internet link to your file so that you can paste it somewhere else. That's it! You can now share this file with others: just paste the link you into e-mails, instant message conversations, blogs, etc.! If you'd like more help with sharing files, head here: http://www.getdropbox.com/help/16 Happy Dropboxing! - The Dropbox Team Note: You can only link to actual files within your Public Folder, not to folders. Hope this helps. Take care.
