Re: Google drive on a Mac

2023-11-18 Thread Lorie McCloud 
thanks. I did get that far but I don’t understand what some of these choices 
are. am I trying to mirror files? I want to see everything that’s in my drive 
in the google drive folder on my computer and if I make changes in either place 
I want to see it reflected in the other. what choice is that? so far I haven’t 
been able to get it to sync on my computer.

many thanks.

Dear Lorie,

You need to go to menu extra, find Google drive and vo+space on it.  You will 
be presented with a number of choices.  Press “more” and you should be in the 
preferences for Google Drive.  There you can determine whether your files sync 
and are available off-line.

2.  Look for Backup and Sync from Google.app, and press CMD +O, to restart the
