This week we are changing things up a little. We wanted to make this a special post where we pay tribute to 2011 by selecting that one app, accessory, piece of hardware, etc that we couldn’t live without. Hopefully many of our favorite items will also be yours. However, if they’re not, please feel free to comment on our selections, and suggest picks of your own. Check out this year’s picks after the break. iOS 5.0 My Pick of the Year is iOS5. After long and careful consideration I’ve decided that this piece of software is the thing that most delighted my iLife this year. Although I do not each feature or app daily and despite the fact that many things are still a work in progress (iMessage I’m looking at you!) this is thing that Apple can be most proud of birthing this year (yes even above iPad2 and Lion).

Mittler zwischen zwei Welten: ‘DropboxAutomator’

Fri, 30 Dec 2011 14:04:09 UTC +00:00

iPhoneBlog.de

iOS verweigert seine Liebe auch im fünften Lebensjahr der dateibasierten Arbeit. Dokumente lassen sich rudimentär zwischen Apps austauschen und individuell modifizieren. Ein systemübergreifender Speicherplatz, wie er für iCloud in Zukunft (vielleicht) geplant ist, fehlt. Dropbox springt mit seinem Angebot als Daten-Silo für unzählige Anwendungen in diese Lücke. Durch ‘DropboxAutomator‘, einer Web-App mit vorgefertigten Skripten, die sich auf Netzwerk-Ordner anwenden lassen, gestaltet sich der iOS-Alltag einfacher. Nachdem der Drittanbieter-App Zugriff auf das persönliche Verzeichnis eingeräumt wurde, überwacht sie einzelne Ordner und wendet spezielle ‘Actions‘ auf dort abgespeicherte Dateien an. So lassen sich beispielsweise Textdokumente im Word-Format automatisiert in ein PDF umwandeln, umbenennen und als E-Mail weiterleiten. Alternativ wandert das DOC auf Google Docs, erhält eine elektronische Unterschrift, wird verschlüsselt oder verschiebt sich auf einen FTP-Server. Solche Prozesse lassen sich von unterwegs auslösen, wenn beispielsweise ein Mail-Anhang in die Dropbox-App (kostenlos; universal; App Store-Link) verschoben wird. Die Konfiguration der unterschiedlich zu kombinierenden Arbeitsabläufe Read More

OS X Lion has a hidden 'drop box' for easy file syncing between Macs

Thu, 03 Nov 2011 01:30:00 UTC +00:00

TUAW - The Unofficial Apple Weblog

Mac OS X Hints has discovered that Macs running OS X Lion and registered with iCloud have a hidden "drop box" in the user's Library folder that allows for easy document and file syncing between Macs. A folder within ~/Library (which Lion hides by default) called "Mobile Documents" contains iWork documents synced with iOS devices via iCloud (something our own Erica Sadun discovered quite a while ago.) "What is of use is that any files put into the ~/Library/Mobile Documents folder will automatically upload to iCloud and push to any other Mac you have that is signed in to the same iCloud account and has the 'Document & Data' iCloud preference checked," says Mac OS X Hints member CHM. "Lion even notifies you of version conflicts and allows you to resolve them when you open the document." This functionality is broadly similar to the third-party file syncing service Dropbox, but having Read More

Seth: How I use my iPhone as CIO of a web and app development company

The iPhone Blog

By Seth Clifford, Wednesday, Oct 26, 2011 | Since I began using smartphones in 2004, they’ve become an indispensable part of my daily workflow. When I bought my first iPhone (a 3G in 2008), that workflow changed immensely, and for the better. The wide variety of apps available for the platform and the connected nature of the tools Apple provides make iOS a very compelling choice for managing many aspects of our business. At Nickelfish, I do a lot of different things, but a large part of my daily routine is maintenance of all our systems, both user desktops and laptops as well as our online accounts, backups, and services. I use a combination of apps to manage all of this easily. 1Password syncing to Dropbox means I have all the information for everyone’s accounts as well as software licenses and secure notes at my fingertips. I use Screens to monitor Read More

Homescreens – Oktober 2011 (iPhone + iPad)

Mon, 17 Oct 2011 09:09:11 UTC +00:00

iPhoneBlog.de

Oft nachgefragt: ein Beitrags-Update über meine ‘Homescreens‘. Seit März 2011, als die letzte Aktualisierung dieser Artikel-Serie erfolgte, hat sich die eine oder andere App verschoben, geändert und aussortiert. Der derzeit aktuellen Stand ist an dieser Stelle festgehalten. Vielleicht finden an diesem Montag ja speziell frische 4S-Käufer, die einen ersten Grundbedarf an Software benötigen, die eine oder andere Anregung. Ich persönlich ziehe jede individuelle Empfehlungen allen generischen ‘Hitlisten’ vor. Genau deshalb soll mein privater Einblick auch nicht alleine bleiben: Wer Screenshots oder Tipps von seinen verwendeten Apps in den Kommentaren kundtun möchte, ist dazu herzlich eingeladen. Zwei Anmerkungen noch: Die zwei benutzten Hintergrundbilder gibt es hier und hier. Auf meinem Standby-Screen befinden sich dieses und dieses Bild. Außerdem führe ich zwei Ordner mit ‘Review’-Software, die ich mir für dieses Blog noch genauer anschauen möchte. Da diese Programme (noch) keine Empfehlungen sind, verbleiben sie für diesen Artikel ohne Erwähnung. Außerdem verstecken sich in Read More

Great Apps for College Students

148 Apps

By Bonnie Eisenman on September 12th, 2011 As a college student, my iPod goes with me everywhere. Here are some apps sure to help any college student with their busy life. From textbook apps to alarm clocks, iPhones and iPads can change the way students live and study. iPhones, iPod Touches, and iPads abound on college campuses, and for good reason. iOS devices are great anyway, but for college students, there are myriad ways in which an iOS device can make life easier. When it comes to studying textbooks, taking notes in lecture, or even waking up to start the day—chances are there’s an app for that. There are far too many useful apps to count, but here I’d like to list just a few apps sure to help college students manage their busy lives.

Daily iPad App: 7notes handwriting recognizer lets you take notes with one finger

Thu, 25 Aug 2011 20:00:00 UTC +00:00

TUAW - The Unofficial Apple Weblog

7notes is a note-taking/handwriting recognition app for the iPad. It costs US$8.99; there is also a $4.99 iPhone version, along with feature-limited free versions. I spent several hours using the iPad paid version (7notes Premium) and found it did an excellent job of recognizing both my cursive words and individual letters, all done with my finger on the iPad screen. Handwriting recognition is not a trivial task, and 7notes has a very smart recognition engine. The app also has a predictive engine which worked quite well, figuring out my scrawl and giving me some words that matched the context of what I was writing. When there is more than one guess, you just tap the word you want. As you write, you can also add freehand graphics, with some choice of color and thickness of the stroke. I was able to easily add arrows and other simple symbols or diagrams. You Read More

posted by Trey Trawick on Monday, April 18, 2011 at 11:01 am. Dropbox, the de facto cross-platform file syncing utility, has received a much-needed update on the App Store. Version 1.4 adds the ability to batch upload photos and videos, as well as the option to upload files from Mail and other outside applications. A dedicated “Uploads” tab has been added to the interface to keep track of uploaded files, and non-English speakers will be glad to know that Dropbox now supports a few additional languages. What’s New in Version 1.4 ● Support for Spanish, French, German, and Japanese ● Return to tab-based interface for simpler app navigation experience ● Improved file uploading experience: ● New dedicated Uploads tab ● Bulk upload photos and videos ● Import files from Mail and other apps for upload to Dropbox ● Numerous bug fixes Read More

DropBox Updated for iPhone, Now Allows for Bulk Photo And Video Uploads

iPhone Download Blog

Yes, yes, yes! Finally, the DropBox app for the iPhone is actually useful! We don’t usually make it a habit of covering app updates on iDB, because if we did, we’d spend all day talking about them. But this is too exciting of an update for me to ignore; this is something that I’ve been wanting since DropBox’s inception on the App Store. The new ability to bulk upload photos and videos, takes what was in my opinion a novelty iPhone app, and instantly turns it into an absolute must have… Prior to this update, using DropBox as a method of sharing photos was an extremely laborious process. You had to select a file to upload, wait for it to upload, select your next file to upload, wait for it to upload, rinse, wash, and repeat. This serial method of sharing photos was not only time consuming, it was in effect Read More

Dropbox app updated as the service hits 25 million users

TUAW - The Unofficial Apple Weblog

Dropbox has quickly become the must-have app and service for many people. Launched in 2007, about the same time as the original iPhone, Dropbox is a wonderful way to synchronize files between computers of all types. According to Michael Arrington at TechCrunch, the company is announcing that Dropbox now has 25 million users, up from just 4 million a year ago. The numbers are astounding -- over 200 million files are saved to Dropbox daily, about a million every five minutes. Concurrent with the announcement of this user milestone, Dropbox has updated its self-named app to version 1.4. Part of the update brings the action buttons (Dropbox, Favorites, Uploads, Settings) back to the bottom of the user interface in a tabbed fashion, but the new version of the app improves on the way that uploads from the iOS app are handled. It's now possible to upload many photos and videos from Read More

Dropbox in v1.4 mit Massen-Upload

Mon, 18 Apr 2011 14:14:56 UTC +00:00

iPhoneBlog.de

Dropbox scheint kurz vor der Ankündigung zu stehen, 25 Millionen Benutzer und 200 Millionen Datei-Uploads pro Tag für sich zu beanspruchen. Noch im Februar 2010 belief sich die Anzahl ihrer Kunden gerade einmal auf vier Millionen. An dem starken Wachstum dürfte das iOS-Zusammenspiel nicht ganz unschuldig sein. Sowohl die mobilen Apps als auch diverse Drittanwendungen ziehen den Online-Speicher mittlerweile zu Hilfe. Passend zum heutigen Tag erreicht ein Update auf Version 1.4 den App Store (kostenlos; universal; App Store-Link). Diese Fassung birgt erstmals die Möglichkeit, mehrere Bilder gleichzeitig auf die plattformübergreifenden Sync-Ordner zu werfen. Befindet sich die App im Hintergrund, wird jedoch nur der zuletzt gestartete Upload fertiggestellt. Sendet man viele Dateien in die Wolke, gilt es die App geöffnet zu halten. Trotz fleißigem Kopiervorgang lässt sich die Anwendung bequem weiter verwenden. Bevor der Upload jedoch angestossen werden darf, besteht Dropbox auf einen Zugriff der ‘Ortungsdienste’. Das verwirrt, weil die Geo-Infos – Read More

10 Things You Never Knew You Could Do On Your iPad

What is usually the first thing everyone that gets a new iPad wants to know? Which apps to get. But there are still some cool things that you can do with your iPad, even without buying a single app. I’m not talking about well-known features like Multitasking, Folders, Airplay, Airprint, or even the new HD Mirroring capability of the iPad 2. Instead, here are ten, hidden in plain sight, secret features of the iPad 2. You maybe aware of one or two, but let’s see if you knew about all ten. There are several ways you can access your media collection from your iPad. The first and easiest is to sync your library from iTunes. However, if you have enabled Home Sharing in iTunes on your Mac, you can also access your entire iTunes Library on your Mac while connected to the same Wi-Fi network.

Wither iPad? A Testimonial On Its Usefulness

Tue, 08 Mar 2011 17:45:00 UTC +00:00

iSource

(image source: Apple, Inc) With the release of the iPad 2, there has been a lot of commentary on the overall usefulness of the iPad. Even amongst the iSource staff, there is some debate as to whether or not the iPad is a truly useful device, or merely an expensive toy. Here’s my take. When the iPad was announced a year ago, I had no plans at all to buy it. Like many others, I concluded that it was little more than a large iPod Touch; and I simply didn’t see a need for one, especially considering that I had a perfectly usable iPhone. When my friend Mike got one, I played around with it a bit; but ultimately, I came to the same conclusion – a big iPod. Much later, when I started traveling for work again, I finally realized how useful the iPad could be and decided to take Read More

Dropbox update is iOS 4.2 friendly, good to photos, and fixes bugs

Thu, 11 Nov 2010 17:00:00 UTC +00:00

TUAW - The Unofficial Apple Weblog

Among the 16 iPhone updates that greeted me this morning was version 1.3.1 of the free Dropbox app, which adds improved photo support and a number of bug fixes. A quick jog through the release notes shows that iOS 4.2 compatibility was a major contributor to the update, particularly since it is expected that the new OS will arrive shortly. Photos are now handled differently than they have been in earlier versions. There is persistent photo caching, which means that standard image file formats (not PDFs) are cached on the device for quick viewing of photos even after leaving the app and returning. Previously, PNG and GIF images were JPEG compressed when they were viewed on the device -- the update turns off the compression for better image quality. On devices with Retina displays, thumbnails of images are now much higher quality. One of the features listed is "improved scroll bar Read More

9 iPhone Apps for Managing the Recruiting Process

This post originally appeared on the American Express OPEN Forum, where Mashable regularly contributes articles about leveraging social media and technology in small business.

When a single open job listing can yield hundreds of candidates, being able to manage the recruiting process becomes key. Neither companies nor candidates want to be burdened with a bunch of administration.

Dropbox introduces App Directory, adds caching to iOS app

We'll spare you the raves about Dropbox being the perfect cross-platform cloud storage solution and cut right to the latest updates that make it even more awesome. Dropbox has just introduced an App Directory, listing apps on all platforms that play nicely with Dropbox. This includes everything from password storage solution 1Password to Android's UiA contact backup app to ... BlackBerry apps?! Okay, there are only two BlackBerry apps in the directory so far, but it's still amazing how versatile Dropbox is. Meanwhile, the iPhone/iPad version of Dropbox just received a crucial update that includes caching of downloaded files, so you don't have to burn your bandwidth redownloading that 50-meg PDF every time you want to view it. File transfers also work in the background now, which makes the app twice as useful. Note: Please don't put Dropbox referral links in the comments.

Dropbox updates iOS apps, announces App Directory

Thu, 23 Sep 2010 12:00:00 UTC +00:00

TUAW - The Unofficial Apple Weblog

The Dropbox app for iPhone and iPad has been updated recently. There's a UI redesign in there now that takes full advantage of the Retina Display, so your shared files will look better than ever. The iPad version has gained a landscape view, and the app will now finish uploads and downloads in the background. Dropbox also allows file caching now, so once you've viewed a file, you won't have to go back and in and re-download it again. I presume that means only while the app is running -- if you have to actually close the app for any reason, . [Update: No, cached files remain accessible even without network access. –Ed.] But you can find out for yourself because the Dropbox app is free (as long as you sign up for a free account with their excellent service).

If you’re the student who bought every book that your professor said you would need, and if you don’t wait until the last possible minute to write your Western Civ essay, then these apps will be perfect for you. Ahh, Blackboard. Some love it, some hate it, but almost every college uses it. It is an e-Classroom that houses all your assignments, grades, and nightmares. But, the Blackboard team has done an excellent job at creating an iPad app that works with the popular service, so you can finish that assignment that’s not due for two more weeks from anywhere. The application looks just like a -you guessed it- blackboard, and has most of the features of the full website. If you have an iPad and your school uses Blackboard, then give this free app a try.

Back to School 2010 Buyer’s Guide for iPad Lovers

TheAppleBlog

The iPad should be number one on every college student’s wish list. It’s pretty light weight and easy to carry, and with the diverse selection of apps available, you can really get more out of it than carrying your laptop to class. Our last feature in the 2010 Back to School Buyer’s Guide series is a look at some great accessories for the iPad. $69, Apple Store Touch screens are great, but extended periods of typing on them can be problematic. The Apple Keyboard and Dock is a great solution to help display your iPad while you type notes. If you have a different stand preference, you can buy the Apple Wireless Keyboard separately (for the same price) and use it with your iPad or any other Bluetooth-enabled Mac. $29, Apple Store These two adapters will allow you to plug your SD card or USB camera directly into your iPad and Read More

Dropbox can now export files to iPhone apps that support them (wow, vague much, Thomas?). This mean that you can tap on a PDF in Dropbox, bring up the context menu (bottom right), and then export said PDF to Stanza or iBooks (does that clear things up?!).

iPad Office Suites: Quickoffice or Documents To Go

Thu, 24 Jun 2010 12:03:10 UTC +00:00

TheAppleBlog

When the iPad was announced, Steve touted the virtues of how wonderful it would be to have iWork on your iPad. We at TheAppleBlog were unimpressed with Pages, Numbers and Keynote. You can read the full reviews for details, but our primary complaints revolved around the difficulty of getting documents on and off the iPad and syncing with the cloud. If all you want is iWork files primarily on your iPad, no need to look beyond the iWork Suite for the iPad. However, iPhone users have been working with their spreadsheets, documents, and presentations in the cloud for a while with the iPhone versions of Documents To Go and Quickoffice and got used to not being locked into the iWork file format. Now that the iPad versions of these apps are finally out, which one is right for you? Let’s review the features first. Documents to Go for the iPhone was Read More

The Best iOS 4-Ready Apps So Far

Sat, 19 Jun 2010 23:14:14 UTC +00:00

TechCrunch

We all know that the iPhone 4 launches this coming Thursday. But on Monday, current iPhone users get an early treat in the form of iOS 4, the new iPhone operating system (formerly known as iPhone OS 4). It comes with several enhancements, but the ones people seem most excited about involve multitasking (or background tasks). A little over a week ago, Apple began urging developers to submit their iOS 4-ready app, and a number of them have. And actually, some have already been approved, or will be shortly. The component that all of these apps share is the ability to do fast app switching. What you may traditionally think of as multitasking isn’t the same on iOS 4. Multiple apps aren’t running all of their functions in the background at once — obviously, this would take up resources and eat up battery life. Instead, Apple allows third-party apps to do Read More

Dropbox Leads the Charge for iOS 4 Compatible Updates

Mac|Life

Posted 06/17/2010 at 6:27am | by J.R. Bookwalter Monday, June 21 is coming up in a few days, and with it Apple will bring the iOS 4 update for existing iPhone 3G/3GS and iPod touch (second & third generation only) devices. That means that iOS 4 compatible updates are starting to appear in the App Store, and among them is Dropbox, now at 1.2.2. If you’re already a fan of Dropbox, the easiest way to sync and share your files online and across computers or iDevices, the new about iOS 4 compatibility will be no doubt most welcome. Whether you’re updating your existing iPhone 3G or 3GS or iPod touch (second or third generation) to iOS 4 on Monday when Apple makes it available or holding off for your swanky new iPhone 4 to arrive in one week, Dropbox is ready for you.

Eerste iOS 4-applicaties in de App Store verschenen

Wed, 16 Jun 2010 19:56:00 UTC +00:00

iPhoneclub.nl

Ontwikkelaars konden vorige week beginnen met het aanleveren van applicaties voor iOS 4. Ze hebben aan die oproep gehoor gegeven: de eerste applicaties komen nu de App Store binnendruppelen. De applicatie ActivePrint Lite is er al klaar voor en dat geldt ook voor het spelletje reMovem en de applicatie van de online opslagdienst Dropbox (die meteen een paar bugfixes heeft gekregen). Bij de applicaties die nog onderweg zijn naar de App Store kwamen we ook een Nederlandse nieuwkomer tegen: ShopZoeker, waarmee je het assortiment van Bol.com kunt doorzoeken (geen officiële app). Ontwikkelaars hoeven hun applicaties alleen opnieuw te compileren met de eerder uitgebrachte iOS 4 SDK. Maar het is natuurlijk mooier als ze ook meteen wat nieuwe functies van iOS 4 meenemen. Sommige daarvan moeten de ontwikkelaars handmatig toevoegen, zoals Background Task Completion. Andere zijn automatisch aanwezig als gebruikers de applicatie op hun iOS 4-toestel installeren, zoals multitasking in het algemeen. Read More

MobileDL uses Simplenote to download files to your Mac

Wed, 09 Jun 2010 02:00:00 UTC +00:00

TUAW - The Unofficial Apple Weblog

If you've ever been on your iPhone and wished you could save a file to your Mac, your wish just came true thanks to Scott Jackson and MobileDL. Saving files to your Mac from your iPhone/iPad is now as easy as copying the URL and pasting it into Simplenote iPhone/iPad app (free) or a Simplenote web account (also free). MobileDL runs on your Mac's menu bar and periodically (default is every 10 minutes) checks a note in your Simplenote account called "MobileDL Downloads" and downloads any file listed there. If the note isn't there, MobileDL automatically creates it for you. One URL per line of any kind of file: ".mp4, .mov, .mp3, .zip, .dmg, .app, .pdf, if it's a file on the web, MobileDL can download it." Even HD YouTube videos are supported. There is a short screencast available which shows how it works. I went into MobileDL's "Advanced" preferences and Read More

TinyGrab for iPhone helps you share pics over the cloud

Fri, 28 May 2010 17:01:05 UTC +00:00

iSource

TinyGrab started off as a simple image sharing cloud service for Windows and Mac OSX, but now it, too, has an iPhone app. It’s only $1.99 and requires no subscription to use, but I can’t, for the life of me, think of any reason to use it. TinyGrab specializes in taking your pictures, uploading them to the cloud, and then providing you with a tiny URL for sharing purposes. If that sounds familiar, it’s because Twitter apps, the Dropbox iPhone app, Pastebot, and Evernote can already accomplish something similar. I use Pastebot for throwing pictures from my iPhone to my Mac, Dropbox or Twitter for quickly sharing pictures through Tiny URLs, and Evernote for saving important pictures of receipts. I feel a little bad about passing the app up, since I was able to grab a free Pro account through one of the MacHeists, but it’s offering something I simply don’t Read More

The iPad Is Da/Arrivé/Here/Qui – Here Is How To Start

There you go, Apple has officially launched the iPad in 9 new countries today. Well, the iPad actually didn’t wait on Apple to go around the world, and one in four iPads bought in the US has already flown the country by now. Also, an important amount of pre-orders has already been delivered early throughout the week, so the launch is not really that much of a massive event. Anyway, for our international readers who just got their iPad, here is some help for you. Short after unpacking and starting the device, you’re going to feel like you don’t know what to do with it. This feeling is not going to leave right away as it takes a couple days to get used to this new toy.

One district attorney's journey to iPad happiness

Fri, 21 May 2010 20:00:00 UTC +00:00

TUAW - The Unofficial Apple Weblog

Let's face it. Apple and the legal profession have not always enjoyed a terribly close relationship. Since the advent of the word processor, being a lawyer practically required a PC. Lawyers' slavish dedication to Corel's Word Perfect, long after everybody else had stopped using it, is the stuff of legend. Database management programs were typically proprietary things, all requiring networks of PCs. Using a Mac in this environment required, at best, many workarounds, and, at worst, a separate PC to access various schedulers, run conflict checks and access documents. Recently, e-filing and the need to share and trade digital documents allowed for greater platform-independence. Macs, iPhones and now iPads claim their share of diehard legal adherents; you can get stories from the front lines of Apple integration in law from sites like The Mac Lawyer, MacAttorney, EsquireMac, the Disability Law Blog and the MacLaw mailing list. The legal world's growing acceptance Read More

Dropbox for iPhone/iPad gets an update, now at version 1.2.1

Wed, 19 May 2010 09:50:15 UTC +00:00

I hate to admit this, but Dropbox is probably my favorite among the apps that I follow but rarely use. Don’t get me wrong though, I like Dropbox and want to use it, I just really do not have much of a need. That said, its actually very useful at times. And furthermore, its always nice to see an app get frequent updates, which is the case with Dropbox. Not all that long ago it was updated to version 1.2 which added support for the iPad among a few other goodies and now we have version 1.2.1. Though in fairness, this update was not quite exciting. Still anything new, especially one that offers bug fixes is going to be welcomed. Anyway according to the “what’s new in version 1.2.1″ section in the App Store; Read More

Weekend Project: iPad Productivity in the Cloud

Sun, 09 May 2010 16:00:04 UTC +00:00

GigaOm

As a heavy user of Google Docs, both for work and personal activities, I was initially disappointed to see a lack of iPad support for the cloud-based productivity suite. Given the connectivity options of Wi-Fi or 3G, the large but portable display of the Apple’s device appears perfectly suited for light editing of Google Docs. Unfortunately, Google has been slow to add edit capabilities in mobile browsers, and those it has added are fairly limited. So not long after my iPad arrived, I began my search for a Google Docs editor — after all, there’s an app for that, right? As a matter of fact, there is. I stumbled across an app called Office2 Pro and although the software had some initial shortcomings, it indeed allows for Google Docs editing directly on an iPad, and with recent updates, is a solid tool. Using it, I can connect to Google Docs via both Read More

The team at file-sharing, syncing and storage service Dropbox have unveiled new native clients for Android and the iPad to complement the existing iPhone app. The Android client has been available as a beta for a few months now — Kevin over at jkOnTheRun liked it when he took it for a test drive. A BlackBerry client was also announced, which will be released “quite soon.” The company also announced a new API, “Dropbox Anywhere,” that will enable developers to integrate Dropbox’s functionality into their own mobile apps. This is significant in that it proposes to make it easier for developers to get documents onto and off of mobile devices like the iPad, replacing clunky workarounds like having to email files to yourself.

Dropbox does it again: mobile API and apps for Android and iPad

Thu, 06 May 2010 00:00:00 UTC +00:00

Download Squad

If you don't have Dropbox yet, where have you been? We've raved about this awesome cloud-based storage service before, and now Dropbox's mobile offerings are expanding in a big way. The Dropbox Mobile API was just released, along with apps for Android and iPad. This new push is called Dropbox Anywhere, and it's great news for users. With the new mobile API, developers will be able to write apps that access your Dropbox files, meaning you won't have to keep the files stored on your mobile device. Sure, you can complain that Dropbox doesn't have apps for enough devices yet, or that there's no automatic syncing for the Android app, but what Dropbox has built so far is a pretty big deal, and it's still a work in progress. Blackberry users, take note: a Dropbox app is coming to your device soon (probably this summer!). Read More

Online storage service Dropbox this week released a new set of mobile apps and an API. The offering, dubbed Dropbox Anywhere, will allow users to access their files on more smartphones and allow developers to create apps that access Dropbox content. Users can now access Dropbox data on the iPad and Android-based phones. Android devices, Dropbox said, will let users capture, upload, and share photos and video on Android, while the iPad will provide a full screen reading experience, the company said. All data will be synched between devices. The iPad and Android app, as well as the existing iPhone app, are available for download now at dropbox.com/anywhere. A BlackBerry app is expected this summer. The API, meanwhile, will let developers create apps that access the content of Dropbox users' accounts. More information is available at developers.dropbox.com. "With the innovation and growth in mobile computing, the industry is shifting from a Read More

Dropbox gets a mobile API and a trio of apps | Web Crawler - CNET News

Technology News - CNET News

Dropbox is getting more serious about its efforts to bring its cloud storage solution to mobile devices. On Tuesday the company is announcing a mobile API for developers to build ties to Dropbox's servers into their own apps, as well as formally launching first-party applications for the iPad and Android and BlackBerry devices. The new mobile API is something Dropbox is calling "Dropbox Anywhere." The company has worked with a number of developers to integrate their apps into the new data pipeline. These include Fuze's FuzeMeeting app, Dictamus, Air Sharing, GoodReader, QuickOffice and Sprite Mobile's backup tool. All of these apps are able to tap into a user's Dropbox storage to fetch data, and save it back without needing to use any of that device's local data. Now any developer will be able to do the same with their own mobile software. Competitor Box.net rolled out something very similar back in Read More

Dropbox app brings iPad support, fantastic external editing

TUAW - The Unofficial Apple Weblog

The Dropbox team updated the Dropbox app today with full iPad compatibility and the option to choose which app will open a document. It's a very welcome refresh for an application that many users (myself included) depend on. As usual, the app is free. Let's look at the improvements. First of all, the cosmetic changes. While in the landscape orientation, Dropbox offers the same split view that Mail and several others use. Pictures and documents look great and legible on the large screen.

Dropbox: überfällig auf dem Transfermarkt

Tue, 04 May 2010 13:27:34 UTC +00:00

iPhoneBlog.de

Das es Apple innerhalb des ersten iPad-Verkaufsmonats nicht geschafft hat, seine MobileMe iDisk-Anwendung (kostenlos; App Store-Link) vom iPhone auf den hochauflösenden iPad-Bildschirm zu portieren, ist ein Armutszeugnis. Die Wertschätzung gegenüber dem (zahlenden) Kunden scheint bei den Mitbewerbern höhere Priorität zu genießen. Dropbox ist dafür ein (plattformübergreifendes) Beispiel. Der Sync-Service startete vor zwei Jahren als Studenten-Trio und beschäftigt heute mit mageren $7.2 Millionen US-Dollar Risikokapital (plus einem flexiblen Bezahlmodell) stolze 23 Angestellte. Ernsthaft. Dropbox bietet gegenüber der iDisk eine (für Europäer) schnellere Anbindung, ermöglicht systemübergreifendes Arbeiten sowie mehr “Wolkenspeicher” zu geringeren Konditionen. Im Cupertino-Kuhstall stehen mit iPhone und iPad zwei absolute “Cash Cows”, für die seine Benutzer einen mobilen Dokumentenzugriff einfordern (müssen). Nicht bald, sondern heute. Mit iWork.com attestiere ich Apple, dass sie diese Bedürfnisse verstanden habe. Das ändert jedoch nichts an der bislang miserablen und halbherzigen Umsetzung. Daran stoßen sich übrigens nicht nur Profianwender; selbst iPad-Laien ecken recht schnell nach ihrem Read More

Dropbox Comes to iPad

Tue, 04 May 2010 15:19:04 UTC +00:00

ReadWriteWeb

Dropbox, the file storage, sharing and sync service, is now available for the iPad. With an early morning update to the company's iPhone application, the free Dropbox app is now a "universal" app, a term that describes single apps that resize and reformat themselves to function properly on the iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad. With the updated version of Dropbox installed, iPad users can access all their stored files and folders without having to sync files via iTunes first, as is necessary with Apple's own iWork suite of office applications. Those files can then be viewed in Dropbox itself or opened using third-party software programs . Dropbox has been a favorite app of ours for years. Way back in 2008, we named it one of our top five favorite online storage services, and, unlike a few others on that early list, this app has withstood the test of time. For those Read More

Posted 04/29/2010 at 1:56pm | by Ray Aguilera With 185,000 apps and counting, the App Store is a vast warehouse of digital goodies for your iPhone (and now iPad too). But like most mega-marts, the sheer size of it all makes the good stuff harder to find. We’ve scoured the Store, and found the best apps to help you use your iPhone to it’s fullest potential. Whether it’s games you seek, or productivity tools, we’ve got you covered. As it turns out, there really is an app for that, no matter what that is. The iPhone and iPod touch brought back fun to videogaming, with developers focussing on innovation, affordability, and novelty.

JotNot Scanner updated to 2.2.2: now correctly logs into Dropbox [iPhone App Updates]

This is just a quick update to inform other JotNot users that the app now properly interfaces with Dropbox, the cloud-based folder syncing service for your Mac or PC. The news came directly from someone at Dropbox and I can confirm that I was able to log right into my account. All you need to do is enter your username (e-mail address) and password once and then throw your scanned document into the Dropbox folder of your choice. You can’t create new folders from within JotNot, but there’s always the free, official Dropbox app for that. This latest update brings the number of services that JotNot can interface with up to five: Evernote, Box.net. WebDAV/iDisk, Google Docs, and Dropbox. Very cool. Read More

Yet another use for Dropbox: USB cable

Fri, 11 Dec 2009 23:00:00 UTC +00:00

TUAW - The Unofficial Apple Weblog

As a seasoned world traveler and Apple geek, I'm always fascinated to see how others in the Mac and iPhone community make lemonade from lemons when they encounter difficulties on the road. The Mac Observer's Jeff Gamet was recently in Italy (and may still be there) and from the sound of a recent post, he must have arrived well before part of his luggage did. The result? He had a lot of photos on his iPhone that needed to be moved to his Mac, and didn't have a USB cable to link the two. His solution? Use Dropbox and the hotel's Wi-Fi connection instead of emailing photos and then saving the attached photos to a folder on your Mac. The simple answer involves making sure that you have a Dropbox account (doesn't everybody?), the Dropbox iPhone app [Free, iTunes Link], and access to a Wi-Fi network.

Posted 12/08/2009 at 12:50pm | by Susie Ochs Every day is like Christmas when you own an iPhone or iPod touch;they're the coolest handheld computers on the block.

Dexim's P-Flip Foldable Power Dock does that, but it also has a built-in rechargeable 2000mAh backup battery, so you can take the whole dock with you -- it folds up nicely, too -- and use it either way.

Dropbox Launches Free iPhone App

Take new photos or videos and sync them to your Dropbox… Or even share links to files in your Dropbox, all from the convenience of your iPhone.

Put your files into your Dropbox on one computer, and they’ll be instantly available on any of your other computers that you’ve installed Dropbox on (Windows, Mac, and Linux too!) Because a copy of your files are stored on Dropbox’s secure servers, you can also access them from any computer or mobile Read More

Dropbox App Updated – Now Compatible with iPhone OS 3.0

Thu, 22 Oct 2009 19:14:50 UTC +00:00

iSource

From the Dropbox Blog: Big announcement: the iPhone app is now available for 3.0! Go get it Other stuff: We initially opted for 3.1 because API methods related to saving videos were not available on 3.0. This meant that videos taken within the app would be permanently lost in the event of a flaky/slow internet connection. This happened to us enough in testing that we felt it wasn ‘t a risk we wanted to expose to our users. That said, Will, the maestro of our iPhone app, deftly crafted a solution for this problem. The result is what you see in the app store today! Will also says that there will be plenty of bug fixes to come in the future, as well as a huge feature push when 1.5 arrives. Good stuff. If the lack of 3.0 support was preventing you from getting some Dropbox goodness on your iPhone, this Read More

Und auch die Software-Konstruktion des iPhones selbst, möchte sich nicht als mobiler Daten-Esel missbrauchen lassen – holprige Jailbreak-Lösungen einmal außen vor. Das bedeutet wir bauen für kleinste Datei- und Ordner-Elemente Zugangswege rund um die virtuell-auferlegten Beschränkungen. Und alles nur, damit wir beim Kunden nicht plötzlich ohne PowerPoint-Präsentation dastehen. Wer sich sein E-Mail-Postfach nicht mit spezifischen Dokumenten vollmüllen möchte, setzt auf Online-Speicher. Sowohl die MobileMe iDisk als auch seine Konkurrenten Dropbox oder ZumoDrive, stehen (seit kurzem) mit nativen App Store-Programmen zugriffsbereit (und kostenlos) auf Anschlag. Damit sich auch die neusten Dokumente auf der jeweiligen ‘Internet-Festplatte’ befinden, gleiche ich Read More

A breve arriverà la versione compatibile anche con il 3.0. DropBox ha già ricevuto 75.000 download e gli sviluppatori hanno fatto sapere di aver utilizzato l’ultima versione dell’SDK soltanto a causa di alcune API relative al salvataggio dei video nel rullino fotografico.

Dropbox has been one of those extremely useful online tools for me over the past couple years and keeps getting better as time goes on. For those of you who aren\'t familiar with the program, it basically is a file sharing app. Once installed onto a couple computers, it then creates a folder on each user\'s system and syncs any files that are added into the folder. So basically it\'s like you have a shared folder only over the internet. Well now the team has brought the app to the iPhone so you can easily view all your files and even send files into it as well right from your phone. I personally use it to share pictures with my girlfriend or to get files to my brother that don\'t want to take the time to send an email for. With it now on the iPhone, I can view all my Read More

The extremely popular document sync/sharing service Dropbox has released its awaited iPhone application into the App Store for free.

Three ways to stream movies to your iPhone

Thu, 01 Oct 2009 15:23:00 UTC +00:00

CNET iPhone Atlas

MSpot's new Mobile Movies service works in the iPhone's browser--no app required. Sure, you can now download movies straight from iTunes to your iPhone, but those cost money and consume valuable storage space. Sometimes it's faster, cheaper, and more convenient to stream them, whether from your own PC, online storage, or even an on-demand service. Here's a look at three such options for streaming the big screen to your small screen: So, what do you think of these solutions? Obviously they're no good for watching movies on airplanes, but what about on trains? In a car? In a bar? With a cat or on a mat? Of course, if you know of a better way to stream feature-length video to your iPhone, let's hear it! Read More

There are a lot of file-sharing and file-storage services out there offering complementary iPhone apps to help you keep tabs on your cloud-stored media. But, none of them are as good as Dropbox. The popular online storage service has just launched a new iPhone app that not only keeps you connected to your media, but also lets you stream your music and videos to the iPhone! Dropbox (iTunes link), for those of you not yet in-the-know, is one of the more popular cloud-based file storage and sharing services on the web. The service offers anyone and everyone a free 2GB Dropbox account that can be used to backup, share and even synchronize important (and not so important) files, regardless of platform or location. And, with the new Dropbox iPhone app, users can upload photos and videos as well as manage their media directly from the iPhone. The Dropbox app features automatic Read More

Dropbox: Now Native On Your iPhone

Of all the file syncing solutions available, one of the most popular is Dropbox. As one of the solutions that is also cross-platform compatible, many Mac users have embraced Dropbox as a more reliable and robust solution than other alternatives, like MobileMe’s iDisk. Diehard Dropbox users can now rejoice as the Dropbox team is at it once again with the release of a native iPhone app, allowing users to access their dropbox on the go. For a while, Dropbox has provided users with an iPhone-optimized web site for accessing their contents on the go, but that left many users desiring more. Even with 3G speeds, web browsing through Mobile Safari is not as fast as an application that can read/write to its own resources and sync with a server. With a native application, the Dropbox team has managed to provide full access to your dropbox contents as well as several interesting iPhone-specific Read More

The app is available for free in the App Store, but requires a Dropbox account, which are available in three sizes: 50GB of storage for $10/month, 100GB for $20/month, or a free account with 2GB of storage.

Dropbox the iPhone app has dropped

Wed, 30 Sep 2009 02:30:00 UTC +00:00

TUAW - The Unofficial Apple Weblog

If you've been waiting patiently for the Dropbox app [iTunes link] to hit the App Store, your wait is over. The app has arrived, and brings with it the simplicity that Dropbox users have come to know and love. Since Dropbox itself is a free service, it's a pleasant surprise to see a simple, easy method for creating a new Dropbox account right off the bat if you don't happen to already have one. The app just asks for a name, e-mail address and password, prompts you to accept the terms of service, and creates the account. During my testing, I did encounter a problem where I would receive a nondescript "Account creation failed (null). Please try again." message, which I'm guessing may be due to high load on their servers. Still, this is not an encouraging encounter for new users. Once logged in, everything worked pretty smoothly. On first login, Read More

30 Sep 2009 alle 00:30 Produttore: Dropbox | Download Link: AppStore | Prezzo: Gratis è un servizio simile all’iDisk di Apple, che permette di salvare i propri file su un server e di condividere immediatamente tutte le immagini, i documenti o i programmi su un altro computer. Da pochi minuti è disponibile l’applicazione ufficiale sull’App Store che permette di accedere agli stessi file anche dall’iPhone. Potrete cosi scaricare i file, visualizzarli immediatamente o scaricarli in modalità offline, caricare le proprie foto e video sul server di dropbox, condividere link e sincronizzare il tutto con il proprio computer. Risulta un ottimo servizio, sopratutto perchè offre un piano “Basic” completamente gratuito che mette a disposizione 2GB di spazio web per eseguire i backup, archiviare i file e sincronizzzare diversi dispositivi. Potete scaricare l’applicazione per il vostro computer a partire da questo Link. L’applicazione non è ancora indicizzata per cui potete scaricarla seguendo il link Read More

Dropbox Comes to the iPhone and iPod touch [Downloads]

iPhone/iPod touch only: Dropbox, one of our favorite cross-platform file-syncing tools, has now made its way to the iPhone and iPod touch, complete with offline file viewing. Once installed on your device, Dropbox for iPhone provides access to all your Dropbox files, allows you to view any file supported by your iPhone (including documents, photos, music, and video), uploads any photo or video you've taken on your device to your Dropbox account, and lets you save any file as a favorite for offline viewing. If you want to share a file in your Dropbox with someone else, the application can generate an email with a link directly to the file. I first saw a demo of Dropbox for the iPhone way back at SXSW in March, so it's great to see this app finally make its way to the App Store. In short: If you're already a fan of Dropbox and Read More
