Google Drive, taking up the iPad storage

I installed the Google Drive app on my iPad and have noticed she was taking ~ 5 GB of storage iPads.  I thought that all files stored in Google Drive were stored in the cloud.  Does anyone know why Google Drive takes over this storage?

Thank you.

They are stored in the cloud, but they are local mirror, so that they take up space locally. You can use Dropbox instead, but DO NOT create a local folder to synchronize.

  • Google Drive 50 GB

    I bought my Moto-X on the release of Verizon, a white, 16 GB version. My question is has this promotion Google Drive available when I bought the phone and if not, is there a chance that I'm able to receive? 50 GB of storage is really nice for a phone that can hold 16GB, especially given that the majority of the storage is my Spotify playlists.

    Thank you for any input!

    So I think if you open the Google Drive application on the phone is where I got 50 GB promotion sign. I bought mine on September 11 and got 50 GB for 2 years. Let me know what you find.

  • CD Player - no option to add a Google Drive

    Hello!

    I just changed to Foxit Reader Adobe Reader DC, because Foxit provides a feature of thumbnails for PDF files.

    I tried to add my Google Drive account in the section Add a storage account in the menu home , but there is no option to do this, I can only add a box, Dropbox, OneDrive and SharePoint.

    Is there something I can do to solve this, as a plugin to install maybe? This feature will be added in a future update?
    I have a ton of PDF files on my drive, and it would be more useful to be able to open it directly from CD player...

    Thank you in advance for your help!

  • Google Drive moves items to the trash in the Sierra.

    Someone else had a strange behavior of Google Drive under Sierra?

    I installed the Google Reader (which I used without problem for years).

    I dragged files in there and let him sit and synchronization from one day to the next.

    This morning, I found 1 076 files in my trash who have been displaced by Google Drive of my files in the trash, totally random elements of all of my files through. A complete mess.

    I use Google Drive with El Capitan without problem for 2 years, but in this new facility, that has happened.

    FWIW, I have deposited files in the folder of Google Drive and all that's happened is that they have been synced to my account. No rampage files.

    Two things to check...

    1 make sure you have Google installed 1.32 Drive.

    2. make sure that you have not exceeded your storage limit.

    In addition, contact Google support.

  • iPad Pro can I open and save files to dropbox/Google Drive

    I want to use the iPad Pro as a professional tool. I want to be able to save Pages/Keynote and http://bit.ly/joc0zm (all IOS apps) to and from the iPad.

    I'd rather do it via Dropbox or Google Drive. I can do this as well on my MacBook and iMac. So, what gives?

    This is a critical flaw in the ability to use the device correctly. It is not a problem with the Pro Surface.

    I need a solution. It's unprofessional in my opinion.

    So, what gives?

    Did you use an ios device before?  iOS works differently than OS X.  There is no system of separator file for the user to interact with.  You must look into each app to see how the application saves files.   Look for the icon of the export.  A box with an arrow on the top.  TAP etc.

    Where are you stuck?  What workflow does not work? Describe.

    Have you downloaded the dropbox app on your ipad?

    Procreate.  If you can no longer export to Dropbox, you will need to contact the authors.

    • The sharing and integration of workflow:

    -Export the work of the canvas, or simply drag to export or select the picture in the Gallery

    -Export to AirDrop, iCloud drive, Photos, iTunes, Twitter, Dropbox, Google Drive, Facebook, Weibo and Mail

    -Print directly from http://bit.ly/joc0zm with AirPrint

    -Export to or import from any extension of the cloud service

    -L' export as file native .procreate, PSD, PNG or JPEG transparent in layers

  • Tightening of the iPad 16 GB storage

    I'm almost out of storage on my ipad and the culprit is the Photos app (and myself) where I have more than 2 GB of photos.

    Is there a good way for me to this unloading on the cloud storage while I tell me what to do in the future? I have enabled iCloud photo library.  The operating system will let me delete the Photos app, so that the way to get rid of the storage is not available. I could possibly get rid of all these photos because I have intact SD cards and could change to import everything back on my desktop computer.

    Yes. Buy more storage > storage iCloud and downgrades - Apple Support upgrades

  • For the iPad 2 air, what is the best app for note taking allows you to use a removable keyboard and a stylus? Which is also a stylus good to use?

    I am looking to buy an iPad 2 air to take notes in college classes and I was wondering what is a good software that allows an external keyboard (like a laptop) to type notes and also allows the drawing with a stylus? What is a good pen that is compatible with the app and the iPad 2 air?

    If you really want to use stylus to take notes or draw you should go for iPad Pro with Apple pencil. Nothing else offers good experience especially for hand writing. If you ok with drawing then only pencil FiftyThree is a good choice on iPad 2 Air (but again, it is much worse in my opinion, then iPad Pro + Apple pencil). FiftyThree is also one of the best (paper) apps for note taking (and it works well with their pencil).

    The keyboards are wide work system and not a dependent application. You can go for any model of the 3rd party like you which is compatible with iPad air 2. Advice covers the Apple Smart keyboard are specific to the Pro (they need specific for Pro iPad connector).

  • Google Drive storage for audio issues

    Trying to help my husband, an author, after the fact. He is working on a book and has compiled several gigabytes of audio interviews. Everything on Garageband as files uncompressed aif. It is not technically suitable.

    He saved all his Google Reader without doing them anything. Now, he's out of space on his computer.

    The files are all over Google Drive and appear to be good - but he needs to remove the originals on his computer to continue working.

    In order for me to check that they are there in the cloud and working, I have to download each one and launch iTunes, is this correct? Because it does not convert, there is no way for me to play them where they reside on Google Drive?

    UGH.

    It is a way for him to batch convert what it has done so far? There are about 50 or so files, I think.

    My apologies for the basic questions; This isn't my forte.

    Hey Kren,.

    I understand that you have a few questions about your husband works with some AIFF files but are out of space on his Mac. Revisit some information to get it work.

    Now your initial assessment is correct, you need to download and play in iTunes to check. Now he can covert the audio files in a different file format that will reduce the size of the files it works with to save space. Another alternative is to move some content on the Mac using an external hard drive. You can move the iTunes library, iPhoto or a photo library to find some space. Take a look at the articles below to go on how to reclaim space, conversion of files in iTunes and even how to move the iTunes files to another location such as an external hard drive.
