Try to use cloudHQ...


It is possible to manage Dropbox and Google Docs using the same Web Interface.


You can manage (browse, copy, move, and edit) all your Dropbox files directly from a Google Docs interface.|||It seems infeasible! I don't think you can make it!

How To Export Documents from Google Docs to Your Computer?

Log into your Google account and go to the list of your Google docs. Now you can select the documents you want to export or select them all.


After selecting the documents you want click on More actions and then Export.


Now select how you want each of the document types converted when downloaded. You can choose different formats like MS Office, Open Office, PDF and others. Check the box next to Export all your files (up to 2 GB) if you want to export all of them. Yep, up to 2GB worth of files 鈥?if you have a lot of work in Google Docs like projects and collaborations, it鈥檚 nice to be able to export such a large amount.


A progress screen is shown while the files are being zipped and getting ready for download. If you have a large amount of documents and don鈥檛 want to wait, there鈥檚 an option to Email when ready and you鈥檒l get a download link emailed when they鈥檙e ready so you can work on other things.


The documents are zipped up and ready to be downloaded.


Download them to a location on your computer, external drive, or network location.


There you go! All of the documents you selected to export from Google Docs are ready to be used in the application format you specified.

How does Google docs work and for what reason?

Google Docs is a free, Web-based word processor, spreadsheet, presentation, form, and data storage service offered by Google. It allows users to create and edit documents online while collaborating in real-time with other users. Google Docs combines the features of Writely and Spreadsheets with a presentation program incorporating technology designed by Tonic Systems. Data storage of any files up to 1GB each in size was introduced on January 13, 2010.

In Google Docs, how do you exclude dates in a sum range?

For example, If i want to add all dollar valued cells from A1 to C5 using formula Sum(A1:C5), and don't want the spreadsheet to add up dates within that range, how would I do that?|||Leave tha formula as it is and just format the cells where you display the dates as plain text. That way they won't be added to the sum.

to do this: select a cell with a date, click on the button that says 123 on the tool bar and select "plain text"



or just divide the sum in sums of ranges of cells excluding the cells with dates



this is the complete function list for Google Docs Spreadsheets

http://docs.google.com/support/bin/answe鈥?/a>

if you can find a function that excludes cells based on formatting, you're good

i've tried with SUMIF - doesn't work

Which of these is best for ONLINE word processing? Google Docs, Zoho Writer, ThinkFree?

I do not want to use Microsoft 14 online, and Google Docs told me I had a limit of 500k per document, and I have documents that are much larger.|||thinkfree is the way to go


|||There all free, so just test them yourself, then decide what works for you.





"I have documents that are much larger."





Assuming you justifiably refuse to pay for MS-Office, have you tried Open Office, free and compatible, from:





Then, you would only need to find an "online data storage" service like (the 2 GB free) Mozy:


|||Open Office.org is a good down-loadable totally free suite that is comparable to Microsoft's office suite.|||Why not use the free open source program that is like Microsoft Office.


http://www.openoffice.org

Can you upload RAR files to Google Docs?

They have images and music in them, but can I?|||There's no better way than to just try it. If you can't rename it to be a .txt file.

Comparison between MS Office, Open Office and Google Docs?

Between MS Office, Open Office and Google Docs, which do you find most useful and why?


Do let me know the source(s), if any, of your answer.


Thank you.|||MS Office has the most polish and the most features -- it's also the most commonly used office suite, however, it is not free. An Office license usually costs around $60~200 depending on the type of license.



There is a free version of Office called Office Starter 2010 however it is ad supported and only has 2 apps: Word and Excel.



Open Office on the other hand is open source, and therefore free. It tries to emulate the look and feel of Microsoft Office as well as having most of the features of Microsoft Office. However, development of Open Office is slow and because of internal conflict, the project has forked into 2 directions, Open Office and Open Libre.



Google Docs is an online web app, it can be used if you have a Google account. Google Docs only has 3 applications -- a word processor, spreadsheet app and the powerpoint alternative.

It is very basic and only has a fraction of the functions of the other 2 programs, but the upside is that it can be used without installing any programs because it runs in the browser.

Also files you create on Google docs are hosted directly on Google servers.|||Microsoft office Is by far the best out of all of them. It is more compatible with other people (although open office is compatible with office documents) I find google docs lags in many of the advanced user features that office has. If cost is your issue, open office is a great alternative, although not a substitute for Microsoft office|||Both MS Office and OpenOffice need to run on a second operating system before they run successfully on your system, does .NET or Java ring a bell. ;)





Google docs is very basic but works well if you have a great internet connection.





You could also try free office software from ssuitesoft.com. Their software does not need Java or .NET to run. :)

Is there a practical way to keep google docs synced with my Windows Mobile PDA docs?

Hmm, I don't think there is an easy way.





I know there is this:

But it is view only.

Is NeoOffice, OpenOffice, or iWork compatible with Microsoft Word or Google Docs?

Can I send a Word document from any of these programs and can someone open it in Microsoft Word or Google Docs? |||Yes. I've used open office with Microsoft Word and had no issues.|||Yes... it will open in any of above software...!!!

What are the pros and cons of the new Google Docs?

Google Docs, from what I understand is an online word processor, spreadsheet, and data base manager. It is my hope that someday Yahoo will be able to expand on this project. In looking forward to the day when documents can be shared on line without worrying about what version/software each computer has, what are the pros and cons right now of Google Docs? How does this new program compare to MS Office or the new and free Open Office?





Here is the link to more information about the new service:





http://www.google.com/google-d-s/hpp/hpp鈥?/a>





Requirements are currently the following:





1.) A Google Account


2.) Internet Access





Jeff|||Well some of the cons are...





1) limited feature set compared to MS word/excel


2) You have to be connected to the net to use them


3) They require you to relearn some of the basic features and where functions are located (relearning takes time and money for companies)





Some of the pros is that...





1) Quick access to your documents anywhere in the world


2) Usually a bit easier to use once you learn where everything is


3) Has a few more "collaborative" features such as file sharing, simultaneously working on the same files and doesn't need to be installed on your computer to use them.





I don't think Yahoo is going to be able to expand on Google's projects like this since they are often far behind in the market for such technology. But who knows in the future.





I hope this is what you were looking for.

How private is Google Docs?

When creating a document in google docs. How private is it? If I created a document can all of my contacts view the right a way? or I have to enable them to view it first? I want to store some private data on it and not willing to make a mistake.|||You have to share a document for others to see it. It's private by default.|||If you elect to allow someone to view or collaborate on a document, note that information you disclose can be viewed, or possibly copied or redistributed, by those you've allowed to view or collaborate on the document or chat.

Can I create a formula in google docs?

I want to create this baseball statistic formula in google docs so it can calculate everything but I'm not sure how to do it. Is there a way? Here's the formula


wOBA = ((0.72xNIBB + 0.75xHBP + 0.90x1B + 0.92xRBOE + 1.24x2B + 1.56x3B + 1.95xHR)|||As far as I know that isn't possible

Can I edit Google Docs with the latest Kindle?

I want to be able to edit documents over 3g with the latest Kindle, but I can not find out if this is possible. Has anyone been able to do this?|||Yes you can read and edit google docs on the latest 3g kindle.





Another tip, if you in the market, you can get a good deal on a kindle here:


http://www.syncpedia.com/goto/kindle_sto鈥?/a>





You could either consider the regular 3g kindle or the special offer 3g kindle for $25 less.


The special offer kindle just has small ads on non critical areas like the screen saver or menu. It's debatable if it's worth the discount, but from what I have read it's easier to ignore (I have the regular 3g kindle from before the special offer model was offered).

What is wrong with google docs?

I created an excel spreadsheet in Google docs with several fields. However at the moment It will only open up part of the spread sheet and also the menu bar is not working as well. I have been trying to fix for a while now I even shut down and restarted the computer and that did not fix my problems. Does anyone know what could be the cause and how to fix it ?|||Maybe you could try using a different browser like firefox, chrome, opera or internet explorer also try clearing the cache the easiest way to do it is by going to opciones y and pressing the privacy tab then just click wipe cache or download the cleaner i use.|||everything
