Bryonie Posted January 2, 2022 Share Posted January 2, 2022 Hi. When I try 'Open From Cloud' (an afpub file created on a Windows laptop and saved to Google Drive) in Designer on iPad, my file is greyed out and I can't open it. Am I missing something? Thanks Bryonie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bryonie Posted January 2, 2022 Author Share Posted January 2, 2022 Thank you Walt. I appreciate your speedy answer. I'm trying to decide which of my cloud services to continue to use (New Year's resolution to be more efficient/save money!) and as I'm on a windows laptop was hoping to stay away from Apple software as much as possible. Obviously not possible. I shall try Dropbox. Thanks again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryonie Posted January 2, 2022 Author Share Posted January 2, 2022 Actually, I've just tried to use Dropbox and it's not showing up in Affinity as an option to open from cloud. It's installed on my ipad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walt.farrell Posted January 2, 2022 Share Posted January 2, 2022 I don't think I ever tried Dropbox on the iPad. I'm on the free Dropbox plan, and to add another device I'd need to start paying.

Bryonie Posted January 2, 2022 Author Share Posted January 2, 2022 Thanks - I just found it. It was deselected in my files app. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
