How to give people edit access to your Dropbox files?

Last Updated :

Giving 'can-edit' access to people means that you are giving them the permission to add and edit items in your Dropbox folder.  This permission is handy when it comes to sharing large video or photos files or any other files where you need others to add items. It is useful when you are working in a team or a group and where each member has something to add to the folder. If you are looking for a step by step process to give people edit access to your Dropbox files, follow the process below

If you give people edit access to a folder in your Dropbox, it becomes a shared folder. Changes to the contents of these shared folders are synced to everyone who has access to the shared folder.

People with edit access can:
  • edit files
  • comment on files
  • and view files

PicBackMan does exactly what it's supposed to. It's quick and efficient. It runs unobtrusively in the background and has done an excellent job of uploading more than 300GB of photos to 2 different services. After having lost a lot of personal memories to a hard drive crash, it's nice to know that my photos are safe in 2 different places.

LOVE this program! Works better than ANY other program out there that I have found to upload thousands of pictures WITH SUB-FOLDERS to SmugMug! Thank you so much for what you do! :) #happycustomer

I pointed PicBackMan at a directory structure, and next time I looked - all the photos had uploaded! Pretty cool. I use SmugMug and while I really like it, the process of creating directories in is pretty laborious when you need to make 80+ at a time. This was a breeze. Thank you!
