Regular readers of this blog will know that I’m a huge fan of the free online storage service DropBox and the recent release for iOS, 1.4.1, brought the badly needed ability to upload multiple files simultaneously.
You can now upload multiple images or videos from your iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad straight to your DropBox which will then sync automatically with DropBox on your Mac or PC.
Here’s how to do it:
1. Register, Download & install DropBox from this link. When you register you’ll get 2GB free storage and you can increase that 8GB by referring your friends.
2. After you install DropBox it will seamlessly integrate into Windows Explorer, Mac Finder (available for Linux too). Simply drag and drop some music into your DropBox.
4. While DropBox is doing a sync, open up the App Store on your iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch and search for and download DropBox.
5. When complete, open up the DropBox app and login using the same username and password you registered with above.
6. Tap Uploads > Tap + (top right corner)
7. Photo Albums should open. Tap to select an album.
8. Tap to select one or more photos and/or videos.
9. Tap the folder at the bottom of the screen to change the destination folder on your DropBox
10. Tap Upload when ready.
DropBox will begin uploading your selection. You may exit the application by pressing the Home button and DropBox will continue in the background.
This was tested on an iPhone 3GS running iOS 4.3.3 and DropBox for iOS 1.4.1.
