Why do you need SkyDrive?

Service SkyDrive(skydrive.com) represents file hosting for storing and sharing files with various information on the Internet. To put it simply, it is a cloud service. Microsoft made its first launch in August 2007. The service has a multilingual and intuitive interface, so it won't be so difficult to work with it.

What is SkyDrive for? It is needed for fast and wireless exchange of information. For example, you have a computer and a laptop. The laptop is in another room and you are too lazy to carry it, connect and transfer documents. You go to SkyDrive and download required document... Also, such a service is very suitable for those who work at a computer both at home and at work. If you have unfinished business in the office, then you can always return to them from your home computer thus loading necessary information from a cloud service. At the same time, you will not need to carry flash drives or cables with you.

I recommend paying great attention to this service to those people who often work with office applications from Microsoft Office... Thanks to Office support Web Apps, in SkyDrive, several people can work remotely on the same document without any problems. For example, two people can use and edit the same office document... Moreover, each of them will have current version of this document at the same time. This is very useful for schoolchildren, students or teachers who perform united work... Also useful for tourists who are collaborating on or bloggers who are creating a shared e-book.

You can store absolutely all files. And in general, it is convenient when you have a lot important documents, and you are afraid of catching some kind of virus that could adversely affect your information. It happens that he HDD can burn out or lose a lot of information. For such moments, this service will also be very useful.

How do I use SkyDrive?

So, we have free 7 Gb available in this cloud service... Three folders are already prepared by default - these are documents, images and a general one. In the right upper corner (3) you can change their display.

On the left side you can see special menu (picture below):

Go back to SkyDrive to create an office document. You can create Word document, Excel workbook, PowerPoint presentation, notebook in, folder, and create an Excel survey.

Let's create a Word document. In a new window, write its name ( e.g. Document 1) and click " Create". Opens Word Web App, which is the web version of the application. It is quite functional, but, of course, inferior normal application... If you miss additional functions, then you can easily open this document in the computer application. To do this, click on the button " Open in Word» (4) and you will have installed Word from a computer.

Button " General access » (5) - hassle-free access. Can be published in social networks, send a message to someone by e-mail... In general, set access to this file.

So, I am currently in Office Web Apps. To quickly go to the repository, I need to click on the button " SkyDrive«.

The repository itself will already display this new document (picture below). We mark it with a tick and click right button mice. You will be able to see what actions can be performed with this document.

Now pay attention to top panel SkyDrive. Button " Add"Allows us to add files from the computer.

A little to the right is a special manager (6) ... Here we can add friends from Facebook, join account or add contacts from Google. If you have added people, it will be very convenient to communicate with them through this interface. Going to Settings (7) you can set certain parameters and also use special help.

The account name is displayed further to the right. By clicking on it, we can add an avatar, change our profile or account settings. In general, we created a new account from Microsoft, but besides SkyDrive, there are others available here. useful applications... Click on the down arrow.

Additional opportunities will open before you:

Install the SkyDrive application on your computer

Let's install the SkyDrive app on our computer. Those who did not download immediately, go to the menu " Get the SkyDrive app". If you have Windows 8, then you already have the SkyDrive app built in ( it comes by default with the system). In general, click on " Download the classic SkyDrive app". Open it and install it on your computer. After that, you need to launch the application.

Application launch takes place in several stages. To begin with, you will be asked to enter your username and password. We enter the same data as when registering for the SkyDrive service.

You will then be prompted for a location for the new SkyDrive folder. By default, we are offered to leave it in the explorer. We agree and click " Further«.

Then we put a tick on “ Receive remote access to all files"And click on the button" Ready«.

After installing the application you have in the section " Favorites» ( picture below) a SkyDrive folder will be automatically created. Any file that you drop into this folder will immediately sync with your cloud storage... Checkmarks in green circles indicate that everything is already synced. This is the convenience of all this!

So, now I will tell you about a rather convenient and useful service data synchronization (cloud storage service), which can seriously compete in the future with most other similar services. SkyDrive, and we are talking about it, was created a long time ago, and several useful updates, the best of which, perhaps, was the last.

SkyDrive has long offered users up to 25 GB free space for storing any files, but then it was not yet very popular due to the inconvenient client for managing existing files. Previously, it was necessary to use only a browser to download files, and to do this in order to add "to the piggy bank" only a few photos or small text documents, - inconvenient.

However, after the release of Windows 8, they decided to modernize the program and increase its efficiency. As a result, the user no longer needs much effort to work with SkyDrive, especially if you remember that the company has developed and released an application that can integrate into Windows Explorer (any older than Vista) or Finder, a program similar to Explorer on Mac. By the way, you can synchronize files using Dropbox, which is familiar to many, and if you have Windows 8, then just use the SkyDrive Metro application.

Program operation

The main principle of the SkyDrive application is data synchronization, like most similar Internet resources. AND given client was created for Windows OS on the principle of Dropbox. As a result, a folder for data called SkyDrive will be created on your computer, where you can easily reset different files... And these files, in turn, after synchronization can be downloaded using any other devices on which your account is used. If the device does not have installed client, you can use the most common browser.

It should be noted that the current volume of SkyDrive is only 7 GB. But this is what we're talking about free space, and you can increase it quite simply - you just have to pay for the account. If you have previously registered an account, then you can return all 25 GB (of which only 7 remained after the last update) if you go through a simple activation.

To access the app one can use regular browser, an application specially developed for the PC, or similar applications, but already developed for different mobile devices.

1. Register on the Microsoft website;

3. Download SkyDrive client for the operating system used on the computer. Without this, you will not be able to use sync, which will turn the specified service into a simple cloud drive.

Installing the SkyDrive client

Since this application is similar in many ways to others similar programs (Google Drive, Dropbox and others), then special problems with the installation should not occur. Unless you need to pay attention to the fact that the installation wizard, during one of the stages, will ask you to enter a username and password. If they are not already there, then you need to register on the Microsoft service.

After installation, you will see the following:

After logging into your account, you will be prompted to create special folder file sync, which will be called "SkyDrive".

You need to think carefully about where exactly this folder will be located, since it is very difficult to move it after creation (you need to go back to the settings and remove the connection between the service and the computer, move the folder and re-enter your account). In addition, if you decide to move the daddy, you will need to wait until the re-indexing of all files in SkyDrive is finished. And if the indicated 7 GB is almost completely full, then it will take a very long time.

This application also has one very useful function:

If you confirm the possibility of remote access to files (as I did, you can see in the figure), users of other computers connected to the service will be able to access any files. True, in this case, both computers (which gained access and on which the files are stored) must be turned on. This is useful if you forgot to reset required files into the "cloud", and another person urgently needed them.

Sharing files for sharing

The good thing about a cloud server is that you can not only store files in it, but also exchange them with other people, which greatly facilitates remote work over one joint project. And in order for the files to sync successfully, they need to be placed in the SkyDrive folder. This is the only way other people will be able to download them to their PC.

At the same time, it is important that you can open public access for some files:

Immediately after that, your default browser will open, where there will be a special form for permission certain people work with files. To do this, you only need to list their email addresses.

In addition to this way of providing access to files, links to them can be marked on your page on a social network, transferred via Skype to friends, or even copied to the clipboard. And for this it is enough to use the service itself, in which the functions "Get a link" and "Publish to" have already been added.

I note right away that the resource "SkyDrive" has a very serious drawback for a cloud service - now there is no way in one place to view which files and who has access. Therefore, the only way out is to check the "Information Panel"

Features of the web version

The previous web version, as I said, was extremely inconvenient. That is why the developers decided to significantly improve it, which happened after latest updates... As a result, the service has become more practical and functional.

The home page is inspired by the Microsoft tiled design pioneered in Windows Phone 7, which greatly simplifies the navigation and use of the resource itself.

To upload files, just use the "Send" button. What's interesting: it is now possible to select several files at once. At the same time, the file size should not exceed 2 GB, this makes it easy to use the server even for storing video.

File operations

Files are displayed on the panel as rectangles. Regular folder- like a blue rectangle, but if images are stored inside it, then they are dynamically displayed instead of this rectangle. Agree, this is much prettier than a simple folder. However, if necessary, you can display everything as a list.

The content is sorted according to the standard principle: first there are folders, then documents containing music, then images. You may not be used to this sorting, but these settings do not change. The only thing that can be done inside of this template- display files by name, size, type or arbitrary position.

Conveniently, these files can be dragged with the mouse, as if on a computer. Give them other names, copy and move them in every possible way. We are also pleased with the presence of a file version log, which is a "sign of good form" for data synchronization services.

Present useful opportunity embedding files on the site. To do this, right-click on any file or folder and select the "Deploy" function. The popup will demonstrate short instruction and the "Create" button, with the help of which the service will independently generate HTML-code, and it will need to be inserted into the page of the site or blog.

Disadvantage of using: you will not be able to set an arbitrary size for either the folder or the picture. This is only available for Word documents. However, spreadsheets, in this regard, have advanced deployment settings.

Peculiarities

Each preview picture will open directly in the browser. In this case, a panel will appear on the right, containing the properties of the file, and here you can also mark the people present in the image. V top menu you can activate a slideshow, embed an image, look at the original, or perform other operations with this file.

But what really deserves more attention, in my opinion, is how the developers set up the work with documents. As a result, absolutely any file that you can work with using the MS Office software package can be edited right in the cloud, and we are provided with the capabilities of a full-fledged editor.

Web App is used to edit documents. Naturally, not all professional functions will be available in it, but it will not hurt to work with text.

If the file is not capable of working in the web version, then just click on it to download it to your computer for viewing or working.

The left column of the web interface allows you to see what files have been viewed and changed recently, which computers are connected to the SkyDrive service, and what content has been shared. In addition, you can change some of the storage settings or visit the Trash (to permanently delete files or restore them). To do this, simply click on the desired link in the context menu.

Important! Cart size is limited by developers and is 10% of your total storage. So when using free version(7 GB), 700 MB will be allocated to the "Trash". If you exceed the capacity of the recycle bin, then after three days all files from it will be completely deleted.

Features of service settings

You only need to redeem your code for SkyDrive if you intend to purchase additional storage for your files in the cloud. After payment you will receive specific code which will need to be entered into the account. The storage will only grow in size after that.

If you need to change your account, then you need to start the SkyDrive client, open the "Settings" in which click on the "Unlink" button. And after that it will be possible to log in with a new account, if it was created earlier. Otherwise, you will need to register a new one.

Installation of this service on Windows XP in simple ways impossible. Maximum - connect SkyDrive as usual network drive for data storage, without other functions. This requires special program SDExplorer and registration on the Microsoft website.

To select folders for synchronization, you need to open the SkyDrive application, go to the "Select folders" tab and already here select what will be sent to the server. However, you can only sync files or folders that are inside the "SkyDrive" folder on your computer.

If necessary, you can use several different accounts, but they cannot be combined. And it should be borne in mind that this will make it difficult to sync files, since you constantly have to log out of one account in order to log into another. This is not only inconvenient, but also time-consuming.

If the service does not work for some reason, then you need to contact the support service, where they will promptly give you an answer to any question and recommend how best to get out of this situation.

Finally, I note that the use of any cloud service for storing data implies a certain risk - third-party people can get access to files. This is a disadvantage of any free services... Any paid tariff implies better encryption(protection of) information, as a result, it will be more difficult for an attacker to gain access to it. However, keep in mind that everything created by one person can be hacked by another. Therefore, to keep secret or too important information on such a service is not worth it.

This client allows you to connect to the Internet file storage service of the same name to add, copy or delete necessary information... For all data that is posted on the service, you can configure the access level: from personal to public.

The advantage of the service is that the files you need will always be at your fingertips. You can log into the service on any computer using your accounts and view or download the files you need. The program automates and simplifies file management on the service. By the way, it is also available for new operating systems, so if you wish, Skydrive can be downloaded for Windows 8.

Possibilities:

• storage of up to 7 GB of personal information;
• creation and editing Microsoft documents Office;
• support for PDF format;
• privacy settings for personal files.

Principle of operation:

after a simple installation of Van Drive from Microsoft, a folder of the same name with the name of the service will be automatically created on the desktop. When you move files to this folder, they will automatically be copied to file storage... When copying is complete, a green check mark appears next to each file or folder. Very interesting and useful thing: when updating or changing a file on a computer, the program will automatically update it on the information storage service. It is very convenient.

Pros:

• support for different OS (Mac OS X, Windows);
• the presence of the Russian language;
• OneDrive is free to download.

Minuses:

• OneDrive limit: One file upload per service cannot exceed 4 GB or 65,000 files.

The program is very functional and easy to use. This is also confirmed by user reviews about Microsoft OneDrive... The only drawback that we noticed in OneDrive is the limitation on the size of the uploaded file: no more than 4 GB. But files of this size are quite rare, so the service can and should be used for your needs. Unlike the Dropbox file sharing service (which offers only 2 GB of storage for free), OneDrive can store up to 7 GB of valuable information for you for free. Therefore, this Internet service from Microsoft can be considered best service storing personal information on the Internet.

Friends! Many of you are asking how to use SkyDrive. SkyDrive is a free and popular cloud storage service. In simple words, with the help of this cloud, you can store your files on the Internet. If you have it installed, then you can use this service directly in the operating system. Users of other operating systems can use this service using a browser. In addition, there is a SkyDrive application that can be installed on the operating system, which I personally liked the most. So, everything is detailed.

How to use SkyDrive

It's very simple! SkyDrive is built into the Windows 8 operating system cloud internet storage files. But you can use it from any operating system. The SkyDrive service allows you to host 7 GB of your information for free: music, photos, programs, and so on. Not enough 7 GB? I think this figure will soon increase in big side, but you can not expect a kind gesture from Microsoft, SkyDrive has options for raising the level, it seems to me that it would be inexpensive to give 310 rubles a year for 20 GB.

• Important note: Sossem recently transformed SkyDrive into a cloud service OneDrive cloud service, see our article for details.
• More news, more recently Post service Mail.ru launched its own file storage cloud and provides users with 100GB for free disk space... Compared to this, it is 10 times more. For anyone interested, read our article.

Personally, I have long found a use for these 20 gigabytes. Of course, you can take your time and try these very free 7 GB first, I'm sure you won't be empty, you just need not be lazy, but brainwash about how you can use them. Agree, not every day our tight-fisted old Microsoft gives something for free. For example, I use this service as an addition to my USB flash drive, I put the most necessary installers there. free software, various useful scripts, in short, essential tools in my work. Just now installed windows cannot work with archives .rar and friends very often ask me to install free archiver and please, I always keep the 7-Zip archiver and others on SkyDrive useful utilities together. A friend of mine, being on vacation, posted wonderful photos on SkyDrive that he took right on the phone and all his relatives, and friends could see these photos right away. There was even a rumor about him that he was some kind of hacker, and he was not a hacker, he just loves to understand the new possibilities that a computer and modern operating systems, in particular Windows 8, give.
You can manage your files on SkyDrive not only from your Windows 8 operating system, but in general from any computer using a browser.

Also useful for tourists who are collaborating on or bloggers who are creating a shared e-book.

You can store absolutely all files. And in general, it is convenient when you have a lot of important documents, and you are afraid to catch some virus that could adversely affect your information.
