I?m a huge fan of Dropbox, the online service and app that together let you keep files synchronized between multiple computers, the Dropbox website, and even your iOS devices thanks to the Dropbox iOS app (and many third-party iOS apps that use Dropbox for storing files). Like many of my fellow Macworld editors, I keep all my in-progress work in my Dropbox folder so I can access that work from any device, anywhere, at any time.
But the one significant complaint I hear about Dropbox is that it syncs only the files and folders inside that special Dropbox folder. If you forget to put a particular document or folder inside the Dropbox folder, that data won?t be available on your other devices. I?ve admittedly fallen victim to this limitation myself, wanting to work on a file while away from my office, only to discover that I had apparently left that file on my desktop or in my Documents folder.
Which is why I?ve found Spotdox so useful. Also a combination of a Web service and a Mac app, Spotdox lets you remotely browse the files on your Mac and copy any of them?again, from afar?to your Dropbox folder to make them accessible.
The first time you launch the Spotdox app?you choose whether it lives in your menu bar or in the Dock?the app requests authorization to access your Dropbox account. Once you approve, you?ll see Spotdox?s Web interface; you can close this page, as it?s mainly for remote access (described below). Spotdox then sits in the background and waits for your remote requests.
