hi,just got my n7 and playing about with itjust wanted to know how i go about getting storage on google cloud and how it works basically,cheers
There really isn't a unified "Google Cloud."
Google drive is used for basic file storage and editing. 5GB for free.
Google music will store up to 20,000 songs.
Google+ is used for photo storage.
Basically each service has its own cloud and they can all be accessed by 1 Google account.
Hope that helps!

Just started using Google Drive. You can turn on sync under your Google account, but what is it syncing? Is there a folder somewhere called My Drive? There seems to be from the app, but can't find it in my file manager.
I can sync on my PC, and I have copies on my PC. Does the same happen on my n7? I know Dropbox wouldn't do that, you always had to download the files.

I use the Google drive app and it allows access to anything from my PC synced. The only way I've found to add to GD from my nexus is to use a file manager that allows GD access. I personally use es file explorer

What I thought. I use Solid Explorer, easy access, but no real way to sync to same folders on the N7. Although with SE you can have your right panel GD and your left panel Internal folders, making it easy to move files. I'm just not use to "the cloud" yet.
It just syncs with the cloud where all you files are and if you add a new file via GDrive in PC it wont appear here until you sync.

OK, I do know how it works, I was just wondering if it was one step better than Dropbox, allowing automatic syncing to same folders on the N7. On a PC the folders sync from cloud to PC (like attached), so any editing on PC doesn't require the extra download step.
But all I see on the N7 are the cloud folders. Is there a way to sync them to the same folders on the N7? And if it does have copies of the same folders on the N7, where are they? Just seems logical to me that since there's a "sync" option in the Google account, that's what would be syncing. Or is it just like DB? (just upload syncing)
I think it's just upload syncing, unfortunately.

Hi,
I just started using cloud storage to backup my videos and pictures online, using box and google+.
But before i delete everything from my phone to get extra space, i want to make sure everything was actualybuploaded.
Is there anyway to compare files between the box and my device?
Same with google+ and my device...
Thanks!
Which is the best option if you want to use it for sharing and backing up photos? When I'm out and about taking pictures and I want to share with someone, the pics are either to big for texting or there is to many to send. So I usually upload to dropbox and send a link to either just view or to download. The problem is I only have 2G with dropbox and would like to use something else to backup almost ALL my pics(about 12G of them). Is it better to upload them to G+ or Google drive? I know that pics in google drive can be seen in G+, but you don't see the pics in G+ on your Google drive directories. Also, I plan on using the app to view the pics on my phone like the native gallery. Any advice or better options?
Thanks in advance!
I use the google photos app on my phone and have it set to auto backup. So when I take a picture(s) it backs up the most recent ones when I am on wifi.I think the google photos are sync'd with your google drive but I'm not 100% sure and can't look on my computer at work. I also increased my google drive size to 1TB for $9.99/month, they also have 100GB for $1.99/month. Not sure if this helps or makes it more complicated as I am limited to what I can see on google at work.
We have been customers and supporters of Dropbox, because it is earlier famous cloud drive. We see how the service becomes robust, and how its reliability, sharing and team features keep the management of our documents and files simple and secure. However, the later updates Google Drive has make us re-evaluate the functionality and pricing of Dropbox. Goolge Drive is more flexibility because of all kinds of Google apps. And if you use gmail, you can own a Google Drive.
So many people start to give up Dropbox and try Google Drive, then question comes: how to backup files in Dropbox to Google Drive？Manually downloading the re-uploading is undesirable since data are too big that will cost lots of time to deal with them.
To save time, we have to rely on tools. MultCloud is one of multi-cloud management applications.
