Navigation Bar Quick Tips

Adding Content to UrDrive

urDrive supports �drag-and-drop� functionality for simple file management.�

Populate urDrive using the Windows Explorer interface by copying specific file types to their respective folders, i.e. .jpg files to the Photos folder, .mp3 files to the Music folder, and so on. �See Figure 2.1.

By arranging your files in this manner, your files will be easily accessible and will remain organized in urDrive.

Figure 2.1� � Drag and Drop

For commonly accessed files, use the Favorites folder located on the urDrive desktop.

Click on the Favorites button and drag files from your Windows Explorer interface into the Favorites window. See Figure 2.2.

Figure 2.2 � Favorites

You can display the content of My Files, My Photos, My Music, and My Videos by placing your mouse pointer over the navigation link as shown in Figure 2.3.*

��������������������������������

Once the pop-up is displayed, you can double-click on the file you wish to view or double-click on the directory (My Files, etc) to display all supported content within those locations.

(Reminder: �My Files� will display all file content, regardless of file type, while the remaining navigation links will display only the supported file types associated with that category.

To resolve this issue, close urDrive, delete one or more unused files and re-launch urDrive.
