Re: Save File to Dropbox

2018-03-11 Thread Dave H
If you're talking about not being able to see it under "Places"on the left
of the file open popup form, you have to build up the path manually in
Windows anyway :-)

Click on "Windows C:" under places, then double-click "Users" in the right
hand panel, then double-click your user name in the right hand panel - keep
doing this until you've navigated to Dropbox and whatever folder in Dropbox
you saved your data file in, select it and click open.

I have a similar setup using Dropbox on a number of laptops running
Windows, MacOS and Ubuntu, only I use a file synchroniser (FreeFileSync) to
sync only my GnuCash data file between pc's as I can't be bothered synching
all the log files etc that go with it.

I also sync my saved report configurations and preferences separately.

Cheers Dave H.

Re: Save File to Dropbox

2018-03-11 Thread Nelson Handcock
I use Dropbox for my GN file and I've had no trouble.

I installed the dropbox app for Windows 10, set up the account and
specified which dropbox folders to synch, and I could see the dropbox
folder in Windows Explorer and also the GN file - no problems at all.

Perhaps open the dropbox app on your Windows PC and check all the settings,
etc...

I usually open my GN file by just double-clicking on the Gnucash app - it
automatically opens the last file (which is my case is the one on the
dropbox folder). Occasionally I've had to open an archive file - and I just
double-click on the file in Windows Explorer.


HTH...

Save File to Dropbox

2018-03-11 Thread EMDNP via gnucash-user
I would like to save my GnuCash files to dropbox so I can edit across both my
Macbook and my PC.  

Saving to Dropbox hasn't been a problem on my Macbook.  I am able to simply
select the Dropbox folder in the file tree when opening or saving from
GnuCash.  GnuCash on my PC does not show the same parent file list as my
Macbook, Dropbox isn't on the list.  It only shows C: and shortcuts to
desktop, etc.  I can clearly see dropbox in my normal Windows File Explorer
but not GnuCash.  

How can I save to or open from Dropbox in GnuCash on PC?
