How to give people edit access to your Dropbox files on a Windows Computer?

Last Updated :

Sharing family photos and videos via email is not always possible all the time. Sending photos and videos as an email attachment have a size limitation. So, in order to share large photo files and video files with your family members, you can give them edit access to your Dropbox files. The 'Can edit' access allows them to add and edit items in your DropBox folder (that you share). Here's how you can give people edit access to your Dropbox files on a Windows Computer:

  1. If you haven't already,  install the Dropbox desktop app.
  2. Open your Dropbox folder.
  3. Right-click the folder you want to share.
  4. Select Share…
  5. Select Share... on a Windows computer
  6. Enter the email addresses of the people you want to invite.
  7. Select Can edit from the pull-down menu.
  8. Select Can edit
  9. Add a message about the files and click Invite.

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!
