Hi Rishi
If you make any changes or modifications to the files on:
"C:\Documents and Settings\admin\Desktop\Drop box/Public/ Rishi's notes
It will get updated and backed up on dropbox.
When you do so on your D drive folder it will have no effect as Dropbox
is
unaware of it. It uploads only the files on dropbox folder.
I hope this clarifies your doubt.
Harish Kotian.

Hi Harish, Vamshi and Umesha,
I was following this thread about automatic online backup of our files
and
folders on Dropbox. But the automatic upload and update feature does
not
seem to be working on my end. I don't know where am I going wrong or
what
am
I missing
out on?
Request you guys to guide.
I successfully created my account on Drop box and installed the Drop box
programme on my Laptop.
By default there were 2 folders under the Drop box folder viz. Photos
and
Public.
I copied a folder from my D drive namely, Rishi's notes, which contains
a
couple of folders and files and pasted it in the Public folder of the
Drop
Box folder which is under "C:\Documents and Settings\admin\Desktop\Drop
box
But after I worked/modified some of the files and also created a
couple
of new files under the Rishi's notes folder on my hard disk i.e ( D
drive),
they did not get automatically updated and uploaded in the Drop box
folder
i.e
"C:\Documents and Settings\admin\Desktop\Drop box/Public/ Rishi's notes
My laptop is always connected to the internet through Airtel broadband
connection.
Please correct my understanding if I've gone wrong anywhere.
How do I succeed in this automatic backup feature provided by Drop box?
Awaiting your kind guidance,
Rishi.

no, not the shortcuts, original files and folders have to be saved in
dropbox folder. dropbox folder is just a special folder in your
computer.
there will be a subfolder called private within that folder. you have
to
save all your files and folders that you want to be backed up into this
folder. if the dropbox program in your computer is active and connected
to
internet, it will automatically upload and update those files into the
web.

Does saving to the drop box folder mean creating a short cut of the
folder and pasting it in the drop box? If the original folder gets
deleted, will the folder in the drop box be available?

Dear friends,
I am working on my PhD thesis. I am writing lot of material every
day
and don't want to loose it in case of any system crash. Can I have
an
on line back up of one of the folders on drop box so that whenever I
write a document or update an existing document in that folder,
there should be an automatic back up on the drop box without me
requiring to do that manually?
Awaiting guidance.
