Re: [Micronet] Map Google Drive on Windows and Mac
Hi Ian, Thank you for the suggestion for ExpanDrive. I am experimenting with all WebDav w/ Box, ExpanDrive and Webdrive with Google Drive. WebDav and Box didn't seem to work well as a well known it repeatedly asks for username and password. I am looking into a fix on this. I will let you know how ExpanDrive and WebDrive turn out.

Re: [Micronet] Map Google Drive on Windows and Mac
I’n trying to test EpanDrive on my iMac running 10.10.3, and it says it cannot start a trial because the Mac is not connected to the internet. Anyone else see this? May be a problem with 10.10.3 and ExpanDrive. Erol On Apr 14, 2015, at 8:52 AM, Cedr Departmental c...@berkeley.edu wrote: Hi Ian, Thank you for the suggestion for ExpanDrive.
