When i try to loggin , the error message occured :

I also allowed all cookies in " internet option" but this error stilled.

How to figure out this problem ?

Ditto - this is happening to me too

But this isn't "Local" storage it is off site storage, correct?

Great tutorial. Thanks. I always wondered how to do that. I have had a gmail account for long time, and had heard of this, but didn't know how to do it.

Does it mean, files can be downloaded from web directly to Gmail drive without first being saved on one's PC?

 

[goshinki]

if you have multiple gmail drives, can you partition them as one ..

so you can get 200gb of online storage eg..?

hate to bring up an old thread but i want it to be known that the author of Gmail Drive has updated his software

viksoe.dk - Recent Files

just thought it should be changed by the O.P. to reflect that it is now compatible with 64-bit systems, im running on mine as we speak!

what's the maximum file size for a single file upload?

 

[allend66]

Sweet, I used to use this on my old x86 XP rig.... Good to see it made it over to x64.

@Maranello - it saves your files as attachments in the draft folder of you email, so the max file size is what Gmail says you can attach - I think it's 25Mb.

 

[maranello]

yep, that's the file size limit
i'll be using Winrar to archive my files in exact size parts

no download that link

Thanks,
I have a query that if we are going to change our laptop/desktop which contain our Gmail Drive, how to transfer it to our new systems? or does it mean that our data will remain online no matter where we map our Gmail Drive?

regards,

 

[maranello]

exactly, the data remains online and can also be accessed trough your gmail web page
i recommend creating a separate folder for all the Gmail Drive files
