p cloud problems

[jean parker]

Hi Simon:

I have been using dropbox for many years. I have it linked to an external drive 
because I have a large number of files on their and I don’t want it taking up 
space on my hard drive. Currently, I have between 5 and 6 hundred gigs in my 
dropbox.

Recently, I went to make some adjustments to my dropbox and found that I 
couldn’t open it. So I tried to uninstall it and I keep getting error messages 
implying that it can’t deleted because it is in use, which it isn’t, or that 
some extentions are in use, or some other cryptic nonsense.

To try and remedy the problem I thought to try p cloud thinking that I could 
store all of my files in it and it wouldn’t take up space on my drive thereby 
eliminating the external drive issue.  I installed that and basically the same 
thing happened. It won’t open and it also won’t uninstall.

Honestly, I get so tired of this sort of thing!

Hi Jean,

 What about Mega Uploads or even google drive?

 Do you know approximately what capacity of data you need to back up?

 There is also another product we use at work called 
Syncplicity 
Syncplicity.com which has a free service I don't know what level of content 
they have but it's a possible option and has a desktop client as well as web 
interface.

But the most trustworthy service I think I could suggest would be Time Machine 
but that would mean having an external drive to use for your backups

Subject: p cloud problems

Hello All:

Hoping someone can help. In an attempt to find a backup service that doesn’t 
take up space on my hard drive, I downloaded and installed p cloud. I put some 
files into the p cloud drive but according to the web interface it is not 
uploading those files. Now, whenever I land on p cloud in the finder it says p 
cloud drive can’t be opened because the original item can’t be found. So then I 
tried to uninstall p cloud and when I try to do this from the applications 
folder I get an error message saying that the item p cloud drive can’t be moved 
to the trash because it is opened. 

I can’t find anything useful in the context menu or anywhere else for that 
matter. Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance,

Jean
