Playing Dropbox Files
Hello again, iPhone listers, First, let me say thanks for the info from Sighard about playing dropbox files in the Files APP. That works as an alternative for trying to play files in Dropbox itself. A second option is to download any dropbox files you want into Voice Dream Reader. Both of these solve the issue of playing Dropbox files. However, this doesn't excuse the APP developers for making files difficult to open in the APP as they have always done until most recent updates. I have contacted Dropbox support for advice on how they will solve this issue, and will share what I learn. They're notorious for taking their time in actually addressing issues. But they have given me a ticket number. So I'll keep on this. Meantime, I trust the alternatives suggested by Sighard and myself will work. Peace & Blessings, Pastor Duane L.

Reading dropbox files revisited.
Hi all. I completely missed this thread and I've emptied my deleted items folder. What is the best way to read... let's say a txt file in your dropbox? I'm looking for a certain entry in a file, going by word or line doesn't seem to work. What do you all do to find a specific item in a file? thanks Jen -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.

Re: Reading dropbox files revisited.
Jen, this is tricky, you need to find an app which can read files from dropbox. Personally I'd use voicedream reader, but I wouldn't buy it specifically to do this. There must be other apps that do the same though. On 06/12/2015 00:05, Jenifer Barr wrote: Hi all. I completely missed this thread and I've emptied my deleted items folder.

Can VDW do in-place editing in Dropbox files?
Hi all, I'm pondering VDW's usefulness in my day to day workflow, and here's a very important question. I know it can handle importing to, and exporting from, Dropbox, but can it edit in place? That is, can it open a file in Dropbox (a text file - I know it can't directly open other formats), then save my changes back to that file? Or, do you need to import the file, make the changes, the export it, find the folder it came from, save it, and be sure to override the original with the updated one? The latter is more of a pain to do, and would make this app less useful. If it can do the former, that would be great. Thanks for any input. -- Have a great day, Alex Hall mehg...@icloud.com -- The following information is important for all members of the viphone list.

I was afraid of that. Thanks for the confirmation, though. On Jan 24, 2015, at 8:02 PM, Richard Turner rich...@turner42.com wrote: According to the help file, I think the answer is no.

You were just honestly trying to help out. We all make mistakes. It is true, Access Note is now free in the app store, but ever since ios 8, all of the reports are that it is no longer accessible. I do not know if this is a ios bug, or a bug with Access Note. Since there has not been any updates since November 2013, my fear is that once Access Note went free, that meant that AFB will no longer be updating the app. Therefore, if it is a bug in Access Note, then it will never be fixed. I do not know if I will get a response, but I do plan on writing Access Note support to let them know of the problems, plus to see if they plan on updating the app to work with ios 8. I have been looking and trying out different apps to replace Access Note, now one that does let you access any folder in your dropbox is Nebulous. Now there is a small cost for this app, but it does have all of the same features as Access Note plus a few more, plus, it is totally accessible with voiceover. For a free choice that is voiceover accessible is Plain Text. Now when you first set up dropbox to sync with this app, it will ask you if you want it to access all folders or just its own folder. There is an in app purchase to get rid of ads and support the developers, but the ads are not in the way at all, so it is a personal preference. Since I am still checking out both of these apps, I do not know everything about them yet, but I know there are other list members that use both of these apps.

Re: AccessNote was Re: Reading Dropbox Files with AccessNote
Hello Bill, Access Note automatically list the files that are in the access note dropbox folder. Of coarse, in order for Access Note to access your dropbox, be sure to go into the settings of Access Note and sign in. Now, Access Note does not automatically update the files in dropbox, in order to do this, you have to double tap the sync button on the main screen. As long as you do this, any changes you make will be done in dropbox. I hope this helps, Chris Sent from my iPhone On Oct 24, 2014, at 8:03 PM, Bill Gallik wfgal...@charter.net wrote: Yes!

You were just honestly trying to help out. We all make mistakes. It is true, Access Note is now free in the app store, but ever since ios 8, all of the reports are that it is no longer accessible. I do not know if this is a ios bug, or a bug with Access Note. Since there has not been any updates since November 2013, my fear is that once Access Note went free, that meant that AFB will no longer be updating the app. Therefore, if it is a bug in Access Note, then it will never be fixed. I do not know if I will get a response, but I do plan on writing Access Note support to let them know of the problems, plus to see if they plan on updating the app to work with ios 8. I have been looking and trying out different apps to replace Access Note, now one that does let you access any folder in your dropbox is Nebulous. Now there is a small cost for this app, but it does have all of the same features as Access Note plus a few more, plus, it is totally accessible with voiceover. For a free choice that is voiceover accessible is Plain Text. Now when you first set up dropbox to sync with this app, it will ask you if you want it to access all folders or just its own folder. There is an in app purchase to get rid of ads and support the developers, but the ads are not in the way at all, so it is a personal preference. Since I am still checking out both of these apps, I do not know everything about them yet, but I know there are other list members that use both of these apps. And of coarse, you can find both of them in the app store. Chris Sent from my iPhone On Oct 24, 2014, at 2:51 AM, Richard Turner rich...@turner42.com wrote: Chris, My apologies. My apologies to everyone else. Apparently what I was seeing was a list of my apps in my productivity folder. AccessNote is not working at all under iOS 8. At least, not to add a note. When I hit add, it is taking me out of accessnote. But, thanks to iOS 8, it happens so fast and silently that I thought I was seeing a menu. Like I said, I have not used the app that much. Sorry for the wild goose chase. Whatever you do, don't upgrade to iOS 8 just yet. Richard The only limits are those of vision.

Re: Reading Dropbox Files with AccessNote
From within the Access note app, it only sees files in one dropbox folder, and that can be found in Apps / AFB_Note. If the file is not in that folder, then you can go into the dropbox app, maneuver to the file you want to see, double tap on the file, then use the share button to open in access note.

Re: Reading Dropbox Files with AccessNote
Actually, AccessNote can navigate to any DropBox folder. When you double tap on add, then select dropbox, if you are inside the accessnote default folder, you should find a dropbox back button in the upper left. You can then select any folder you like.

Re: Reading Dropbox Files with AccessNote
From the main Accessnote screen, double tap on the add button. Then, double tap on DropBox. If you are in the accessnote folder, find the back button in the upper left corner and double tap on it. Then, there should be a dropbox back button in the upper left. Double tap on it and you should have a list of all your dropbox folders. I just did this twice to make sure.

Re: Reading Dropbox Files with AccessNote
That is what I am saying, after I tap on the add button on the main screen, I do not have a dropbox button. All I have is the back button, the action button, review on / off button, and the edit field to enter text. I checked the help, and it also did not mention a dropbox button.

Re: Reading Dropbox Files with AccessNote
That is very strange. I'm using Accessnote Version: 1.2. Under the Accessnote settings the Dropbox sync is on. Do you have a sync button on the main screen? Did you double tap on that? I can't think of anything else that would explain this. I don't recall any thing different in setting it up. If nothing else works, maybe deleting the app and reinstalling it would help.

Re: Reading Dropbox Files with AccessNote
Hello Richard, Ok, still no dropbox button. I uninstalled the app, moved all of my files to another folder in dropbox, restarted my phone, then reinstalled the app. Of coarse, I had to log back in to dropbox, and give access note permission to access dropbox, and in the process it specifically asked me if it could access the access note folder in apps. There was nothing to tap on to change it to anywhere else in dropbox. And I assume that you already know, but I am running version 1.2 just like you are. Like you, I am totally stumped!! Now I have seen other apps that let you select where you want to save a file in dropbox, but never in access note. I am not sure what you are running it on, but I am running it on an iPhone 5 with ios 7.1.2. I hope it starts to work better with ios 8, since there has been previous reports that there were problems. I use access note on a daily basis, but just in case, I am checking out a couple of other apps. Thanks for your help!!

Re: Dropbox files
Hi Keith, If you're using a text editing app with Dropbox support to make your changes, then your results will automatically be saved locally and updated with sync when you connect again. There are many such apps, but one of the distinctions is whether you can edit any folder/file under Dropbox or only files in the folder named for the app. Some editors like Notesy and Nebulous Notes will let you edit any file in your Dropbox.
