App for mac for equation 2. This app allowed me to use the 42” TV connected to my mac mini, which worked wonderfully.(To the developer) Thank you. I don’t have or want an iPad and trying to use the 4.7' screen on my cell phone for this would have been extremely frustrating. This was a VERY nice surprise.What I’d actually wanted was 'Touch Algebra” (which is designed for this), but the developer of that app didn’t bother to make it available for MacOS.
Show on Windows
You can install Sync on up to five of your own computers or devices and the contents of the Sync folder will automatically synchronize to each computer. Simply follow the same steps outlined above to install on additional computers.
If you’re installing Sync on computers used by other people (for example team members, employees or family members), you should create a separate Sync account for each person. This will ensure you have control over which folders remain private in your account, and which folders are shared.
Accessing the Sync app and Sync folder on your computer
Once Sync is installed on your computer, you can access the Sync app by clicking the Sync icon on Windows system tray or Mac menu bar.
Windows system tray:
The Windows system tray is located at the bottom right corner of your screen. If you don’t see the Sync icon in the system tray after installation you may need to click the white up arrow in the system tray first.
Mac menu bar:
The Mac menu bar is located at the top right corner of your screen.
Finding the Sync folder on your computer:
- Click the Sync icon on the Windows system tray or the Mac menu bar.
- Click the Sync folder icon.
This opens the Sync folder in a new window on your computer. The Sync folder works just like any other folder on your computer.
Adding files and folders to Sync, from your computer
Once you have installed the Sync desktop app you can drag and drop files or folders directly into the Sync folder on your computer. Additionally, you can use the Save As… file menu option in most applications, to save files to your Sync folder.
Files in your Sync folder are automatically backed up to the cloud.
Adding files and folders to Sync, from your computer:
Show on WindowsWhere should i download android file transfer for mac. In Android File Transfer, find the folder and/or file(s) you want to transfer and drag and drop it to your desktop. Click Open to continue. Connect your phone to your Mac via a USB cable and Android File Transfer should open automatically. If it doesn’t, check your notifications bar and change the USB settings to File transfer/MTP mode. You can also use your web browser to upload files and folders from your computer to Sync. See the Uploading files and folders to Sync, using the web panel article for instructions. You can use the Sync desktop app to search for any file located in your Sync folder or Vault, and to quickly access recently added or changed files. Steps: The Sync desktop application automatically keeps your files and folder synchronized. The app will display overlay icons on your files and folders, to let you the status of syncing. Overlay icons: Overlay icons are displayed on all file and folders in your Sync folder. Show on Windows Show on Mac Note: the Sync app does not automatically delete unchecked folders. When a folder is deselected via selective sync it will show a grey circle with a minus sign overlay icon, signifying that it is no longer syncing and safe to delete from your computer (to free up space). If you re-check a folder in the future, Sync will re-download it from the cloud. Controlling folder access with team shared folders: If you are trying to use selective sync to control which folders other people can access, we recommend you setup team shared folders instead. Team shared folders give you granular control over folder access. See the how to use team shared folders article for more details. Freeing up space with Vault: If you are trying to use selective sync to store files or folders in the cloud only, we recommend you use Vault instead. See the what is Vault article for more details. Sync provides a number of ways to audit and confirm that the files in your Sync folder have been successfully uploaded to the cloud. This article covers files in your Sync folder only – see here to verify files uploaded to Vault. The desktop app status icon and progress tab: The Sync desktop app automatically verifies all files and folders in your Sync folder for consistency, and the status icon in the Windows system tray or Mac menu bar will display as in sync when verification is confirmed. Important note: To prevent syncing problems across different operating systems and platforms, a subset of incompatible characters are not supported by Sync. Files named with these characters may be skipped (not uploaded), and will be listed under the desktop app progress tab (regardless of syncing status). You can access the Sync desktop app progress tab as follows: If you see a file listed under the progress tab as skipped, the easiest solution would be to rename the file without these characters. View the full list of incompatible characters. Export full file listing: With the Sync desktop app installed, you can export a full listing of all files stored in your Sync folder and Vault, which makes auditing easier. Here’s how: A .CSV file will download to your computer, which you can open, to search for specific files and verify your files stored in the cloud.
