If you are a Yahoo Briefcase user, you probably are familiar with the
service being shut down from March 30th. If you have any files in Yahoo
Briefcase, it is easy to move them to Zoho Docs in two simple steps.
Yahoo Briefcase has a good option to download multiple files in a single
shot. You can select all the files (not folders) and choose the
'Download' option to download all your files. All the selected file are
downloaded as a single Zip file. If you have files in folders, you'll
have to download these separately.
Zoho Docs has a great feature to upload Zip files and Unzip them after
the upload. You can go to http://docs.zoho.com and upload the Zip
file(s) you downloaded from Yahoo Briefcase. Once uploaded, you can
right click on the Zip file and choose the 'Unzip' option to unzip all
the documents. You'll find all your documents imported in Zoho Docs.
If you have folders in Yahoo Briefcase, you'll have to download the
contents of each folder separately as a zip file and upload them to
Zoho Docs in a single shot.
Once you have your
documents in Zoho Docs, its a smooth ride from there. You can move the
files into folders by simply dragging and dropping them in the folders.
You can view and edit the documents by just clicking on them. If you
want to download all your documents from Zoho in a single shot, select
all files in Zoho Docs and choose the 'Zip' option to download the
selected files as a single Zip file.
I hope
this little tip is useful. If you are a Yahoo Briefcase user and are
trying Zoho Docs for the first time, you should see a refreshing
change.
Is there any way we can do just a simple import (just give username and password and your system import them automatically) instead of download and then uploading them here.
