    Solved Need help from Dropbox experts regarding syncing...

    The caveat being for this, and for the link sharing, you have to log into onedrive online. I am thinking maybe with dropbox you can do this by right clicking file in Windows Explorer? If so, there is a definite ease of use advantage to Dropbox there. Anyway, just log into onedrive.com, find...

    Solved Need help from Dropbox experts regarding syncing...

    So why not just use onedrive for everything then? OneDrive can share links and folders as well. Seems odd to use 2 different products in your case.

    Onedrive does this as well. In fact their whole 'sharing' infrastructure is pretty slick. Not directed at you, but on another note OneDrive also keeps a file history you can access and restore from. You can do this on OneDrive as well. I get if you have been using DropBox for awhile not...

    I assume that is directed at me? Why wouldn't I use it?

    Solved Need help from Dropbox experts regarding syncing...

    If you are just starting out (not invested in dropbox at this point), why not use onedrive? 1. I imagine it would. Should be easy enough to test. 2. Yes. Not sure why it would be telling you you have files with the same names. 3. It shouldn't replace new versions with old versions. Again...

    Has MS problems with Credit Cards?

    I had issues on the MS site a little over a year ago. Needed to buy a new power supply for an xbox 360. The site would not take any of my credit cards - even though I could make purchases directly on the xbox with the same CC. I called them up and tried to place the order over the phone...

    Capacitive Button not waking SP3

    Think not waking of the first touch is so you don't accidentally wake it. I just end up using the power button to turn on. Is the most consistent.

    8/12 firmware update says succeeded, but not applied??

    Hey all, Installed the 8/12 firmware update on both my wife's surface and my surface. On my surface, I see the new touchpad options under 'Mouse and touchpad' settings. However, on my wife's surface the new options are not there. Looking at the update history on her surface, it shows a...

    SP3 i7 Fan runs most of the time

    1. Thinner or not, SP3 without a fan would: be lighter, have no moving parts, have better battery life. Not to mention, if there was no need for a fan it would be because the cpu is running cool enough - which would hopefully mean no (or at least less) throttling. 2. The fan is quite quiet...

    Solved Transitioning from Apple to SP3

    fwiw, I too am getting nowhere near the MS claimed battery life. I could maybe get 7 hours on a light day, more like 5-6 (with device being used the entire time) - this is just being used in an office environment (office 365, surf, maybe a video or 2). Since I have the ability to plug-in...

    08/12 Firmware Update

    I am installing update now. Will let you know how it goes. I like the new touch pad options. Would love to see an option to keep Caps from turning on/off unless Caps key is pressed for 0.5 seconds (or whatever user defined time frame). I find on the type cover I am accidentally hitting Caps...

    I'm always willing to try something new - I really like the metro start screen and have no desire to back to the old start menu.
