Playing Dropbox Files

2020-01-31 Thread Duane Steele
Hello again, iPhone listers, First, let me say thanks for the info from Sighard about playing dropbox files in the Files APP. That works as an alternative for trying to play files in Dropbox itself. A second option is to download any dropbox files you want into Voice Dream Reader. Both of

Jen, this is tricky, you need to find an app which can read files from dropbox. Personally I'd use voicedream reader, but I wouldn't buy it specifically to do this. There must be other apps that do the same though. On 06/12/2015 00:05, Jenifer Barr wrote: Hi all. I completely missed this thre

Hi all. I completely missed this thread and I've emptied my deleted items folder. What is the best way to read... let's say a txt file in your dropbox? I'm looking for a certain entry in a file, going by word or line doesn't seem to work. What do you all do to find a specific item in a file? th

According to the help file, I think the answer is no. It says that when you import a text file from an external location, a copy is stored in the local folder on your phone and that is where all edits are saved, not on the external location. So, you would have to export it back over the original

Can VDW do in-place editing in Dropbox files?

Hi all, I'm pondering VDW's usefulness in my day to day workflow, and here's a very important question. I know it can handle importing to, and exporting from, Dropbox, but can it edit in place? That is, can it open a file in Dropbox (a text file - I know it can't directly open other formats), th
