Thanks. I'm on cloud 9.

I signed up & downloaded the Mac sync software. It works pretty neat. You have a status icon in your toolbar, shows - signed in, all files in sync, & % used. You also have a CX folder on your desktop to put files in to be uploaded.

Only problem I found was it doesn't handle spaces in file names, everything after the space is cut off including the file extension. So when you download it back to your computer it tries to open with Text Edit or what ever you have set for generic files.

Doesn't work to put aliases in the CX folder either. Probably have to a symbolic link.

Isn't this very bad?
