The steps below assume that you have Drive installed and running, and that you have
created at least one Drive account that you want to modify.
To modify a cloud account, do the following:
-
Choose one of the following methods to open Drive's
Accounts preferences:
- Right-click the Drive icon
in the system tray and select
Preferences > Accounts.
- If you have the Drive Activity window open,
select
> Preferences > Accounts
.
-
On the left side of the dialog, select the transfer server account you want to
modify.
-
Under Account, you can change the connection settings
for the account:
| Field |
Description |
| Description |
The name of the account. The name is used only by
Drive. |
| Server address |
The URL for the server, and the port number (if
applicable). |
| Username |
The username that you have on the transfer
server. |
| Password |
The password that you have on the transfer
server. |
| Do not verify host's SSL
certificate |
If selected, Drive will bypass the validation of your
server's SSL certificate. Select this option if your server's
certificate is not valid, but you trust the
server.
|
-
In the Storage area, you can configure these aspects of
the account:
| Field |
Description |
| Storage account |
The account name for the cloud storage you will
use. |
| Access key |
The alphanumeric key for this storage account. |
| Path |
The path within the storage that this Drive account should have access to. |
If you make changes to these fields, Drive then verifies that it can still access the storage. If it cannot,
you can revert to the previous settings.
-
Click OK to put into effect any changes you have made.
