Backing+Up!

__Backing up Data__ __Documents/Downloads__

1) Old School: Use a thumb drive or memory stick, or use an external hardrive. Burn documents to a disk.

====2) New School: Drop Box, Box.net or other online or cloud storage (Mediafire, Yousendit, iCloud etc.) ====

3) District H-Drive
Most basic: Save your documents to your h-drive, NOT to your Documents or Desktop.
 * -You have 1 GB of space on your ICSD network share. If you have more than that to save (usually only the case when large video files are involved) then you will need to consider other options. USB flash drives or an external hard drive are good in these cases.
 * Please do not save personal items on this drive; space is limited

 * <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">-If your network share does not appear automatically when you login then you need to mount it manually. Follow these steps:
 * <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">-Our network shares do not accept files longer than 32 characters or with names that include the following characters: ? [ ] / \ = + < > : ; ", * |

None of the files will be copied and you won’t be asked to just skip the offending file (that would be nice Apple). You will need to drill down into the folders and fix offending file names. If faced with a large volume of files to process, than the trial version of NameCleaner <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #1155cc; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline;">[|__http://www.sigsoftware.com/namecleaner/__] <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"> can clean 20 files at a time.

Your network share is accessible as the H: drive in “My Computer”.
