[nabs-l] A Few Dropbox Questions

That's interesting that there's a capcha to sign in every time.  
It wasn't very obvious.  My issue was that the sign-in button 
just wouldn't work, the bt sign would just stay there, it 
wouldn't click.
Thanks.

The problem with Dropbox and the Apex is actually dropboxes
fault.  You need to do a visual capcha to sign into Dropbox with
a computer, and the Apex can't do that.  So I had the Dropbox app
on my phone, which is accessible, and would e-mail myself files
from my Apex and use my phone to upload them.  The Apex can
actually download files from Dropbox if you have a link just not
sign in to your account.  SO I would do the share file by e-mail
and then open the e-mail on my Apex and use the link to download
the file.  This is all as of a bit over a year ago the last time
I messed with Dropbox, so things might have changed by now.

Best,
Karl

I suppose if you really wanted to access your dropbox folder with
the
Apex you could connect the two through bluetooth, but that's the
best
possible solution I can think of.  You could still transfer files
from
the Apex to dropbox, but you might have to do it in a convoluted
way
like emailing it to the account on your IPhone and then saving it
to
dropbox once your bluetooth connection is turned on.  Hopefully,
although it is not ideal, that is a potential fix for you.

 Hi Vejas,

 Unfortunately, the Apex does not work with Dropbox.  Braille
Sense
 should support Dropbox though, and so will the note-takers we
have
 been discussing on the other thread.

 Hi, Vejas,

 I believe swiping up/down with one finger on the item you're
trying to
 delete should give you that option, just like when you're
deleting an
 email or something else.  Sorry I can't answer your question
about the
 Apex as I'm a Sense user, but I hope this solves the IPhone half
of
 the issue for you.

 Hi All,
 I had a few questions about Dropbox.
 Firstly, I would like to know how you can delete folders and
 files on the IPhone app.  I found a more actions menu, which
 gives the option of creating another folder, but could not find
a
 way to delete anything.
 I would also like to know, for these of you who are Braille note
 Apex users, have you had any luck with Dropbox?
 Thanks,
 Vejas
