its the simplest thing in the world. I just installed it on my fresh
reinstall of Mountain Lion.
First, make sure you have the latest version for mac (ver 1.6.10). download
it from dropbox.com and follow the link for "getting started". once
downloaded, mount the .dmg file by pressing command-o on it. then you can
just command-o on the dropbox.app file.
You'll be asked to log into your dropbox account, and from there its just
following the prompts. I usually skip the tutorial, but you might want to
take it.
Honestly, there's nothing to it! You don't have to do anything with Terminal
or any other gymnastics to get it installed.
Once installed, it places a "dropbox" folder in your home directory, and a
menu item in the Extras menu (VO + m twice).

Subject: Re: program to read pdf's well on the mac?
How in the world do you get dropbox to run on the mac? I installed and
launched it, and always end up getting some message telling me "dropbox has
no windows."
I found something somewhere that has this long list of instructions on how
to make it accessible with voiceover, that I can't even remember, but
remember it had something to do with going into the terminal, which I'm not
familiar with, but managed to follow the steps it provided, only to still
have it not work. Can someone please help out with this?

The first 2 gigs of space is absolutely free and there are ways people can
increase that free space by getting referrals and stuff; more info on
Dropbox site. You can also buy 100 GB for something like $10 / month.

Yet even another way is to use Dropbox. With that setup, you can just
copy the PDF or Epub formatted file, for that matter to the desired
folder within the Dropbox folder on the computer and then fire up the
Dropbox app on your iPhone and access the file. It will give you the
choice to put it into iBook or possibly other apps you may have on
your device that are compatible with these files.
HTH.

Hi there
Another quick way to get PDF files into your iPhone is to email it to
yourself. Then when your iPhone picks it up it will ask you if you want
to
open it in iBooks. Of course you choose yes. It works quite fine.

Hello Lisette,
To get a PDF into iBooks on my iPhone, I open the PDF in iTunes where
it
goes into the Books category, and the next time I sync my iPhone with
my
Mac, the PDF goes into iBooks.
Cheers,
Anne
