Is public file sharing from the cloud really "public"?

I'm wondering...When I make a file "PUBLIC" does that mean that it could be viewed by anyone in the public or just by people that I send the link to or people that they may send the link to? Is this crawled by search engines?

Hi,
Sharing ONE file would not allow to view any other files.
If you send link via email to another email address, it will only send the link for that FILE which you shared.
You can't access any other files of the sender.
There are two options :
One is PRIVATE -- with no options means this is private to you (Even if anyone knows the link, he can't view that file untill and unless that file is in PUBLIC mode)
Another is PUBLIC with 2 options : Comment and Download -- If you check those then the recipient will be able to comment and download that specific IMAGE or FILE.
Thanks,
Baljeet

  • Getting files back from the cloud to my pc

    Inadvertantly, many of my files have gone to the cloud and I have no idea as to how to get them back, can someone offer suggestions? 

    I figured it out.  I forgot to authorize my current computer on MATCH.  Once I authorized my current computer, the cloud icon allowed me to actually download the music I originally uploaded to the cloud.

  • Question about file sharing in the cloud

    I want to share my folder in the cloud with friends, currently I can only share some pictures and not a folder. In addition, I can't also upload any folder, is that because I am using trial?

    I don't think you can share folders, just the contents, unless you zip them.
    As for uploading folders, not via the website, but if you download the desktop cloud connection application, you can upload whole folders and keep your cloud and computers sync'd.

  • 351 Missing iTunes Files On HDD/Recovering From The Cloud

    Yesterday 8/10/13, I was attempting to update my iPod Classic with 12 new songs.  I did it the normal way when suddenly I noticed iTunes was deleting all my songs (19573 of them).  My library is on my external hard drive plus I had an icloud account and had backed them up to the cloud.  So I thought no big deal.  For whatever reason, 351 songs have lost their connection with iTunes.  They are still on my external hard drive.  I tried many of the recommended solutions from the forum ie. changing library locations, unchecking the keep files organized box, moving the itl/xml files.  Nothing will reconnect iTunes with the files en mass.  I can do one at a time, but really 351...I don't think so. 
    So here's the issue.  When I do locate files, iTunes only lets me do one at a time and it doesn't say,  "oh here's 350 others in the same file."  Nor can I find any information as to how to download my library from the cloud where I paid to have it stored for such an occassion (All 19573 songs).  The common thread with all the missing files that are actually on my external hard drive is that they have the words "file://localhost followed by the regular drive location.  I've read the forum recommendations for the localhost issue and none of the solutions worked for me.  Running a PC with Win7.
    Appreciate a solution to this very frustrating and time consuming issue.  Spent almost 12 hours working on a fix yesterday.
    Thanks....

    I thought I'd update my post regarding solution.  Since I couldn't resolve my 350 missing songs nor why my iPod was vacuumed of the 19K+ songs, I contacted Apple Support.  Fortunately for me, after hearing my sad tail of woe, I had excellent and timely response from the group.  I'll give you the abridged versioin.  The Apple Support tech supervisor contacted a software engineer who restored my iCloud file exactly as I had left it.  WHOOOAAAA!  I was able to download my entire library from the cloud, something I didn't expect that I'd have to do so quickly.  It only took 4 days to complete the download.  Running the PC about 8-10 hours a day exclusively for the purpose of downloading.  I built a new folder and put all the "fresh" downloads in it.  Uh, oh....my file was 113+/- GB when I uploaded and it's now 158.99GB.  When iTunes matched on my music, I received an upgraded file as advertised.  Well that's good and bad news.  The good is that music file now has enhanced sound quality.  The bad is that my file has gained almost 49GB.  As far as "streaming" from the cloud, no issue; however, I have the 160GB iPod Classic and guess what?  My music won't fit.  So I adjusted the iPod setting in iTunes to 192KB to allow my music to "fit" on the iPod.  So, when streaming I get great quality and when listening to the iPod, not so much.  I did an iPod restore and started the transfer.  This normally takes about 3 hours.  After 3+ hours only about 500 songs transferred.  Something is definately wrong.  The only difference was, I unchecked keeping my files organized in my new library.  Call me skiddish.  After several tries, I stopped the transfer.  I made a secondary copy of my library onto my 1TB external drive...now I have 3 copies, the original and 2 enhanced.  Can't ever have too many, right?  Now I set the "Keep My Music Organized" prompt for one of my enhanced file copies and away iTunes went, organizing the music.  So I'm now at the point of attempting another transfer.  Oh yeah, I got a udpated version of iTunes this a.m. 11.0.5.  Hopefully, I'll get my normal transfer to iPod time of around 3 hours.  Will update the post when done.

  • I Trashed Some Song Files from my Computer that Had Been Previously Matched, and Now iTunes Can't Located Them. How Do I Download Them from the Cloud?

    The title pretty much says it all. I deleted some songs from my hard drive that had already been added to the cloud using iTunes Match, and now, when I try to play them, I'm asked to locate the files. The songs are still available on my other devices, so I didn't delete them from the cloud. How do I reconect the songs on my computer with the files in the cloud?

    Apple provides a brain-dead simple way to backup all your personal data in the form of Time Machine that keeps incremental backups going back at least several weeks, if not months (depending on the size of the backup drive). Why more people don't use it is a puzzle to me. In this day and age of person, and very important, data being digitial (sometimes exclusively) backing everything up becomes imperative. Ideally a good backup scheme should incorporate multiple backup solutions in case of very serious emergencies, but for most people, and in the case described in the OP TM is a very good solution. If a file is deleted, then found to be needed again, just go to the date and time in TM just before the file was deleted and restore it. Simple. But it doesn't work if you aren't backing up. So... backup, backup, backup. You'll thank yourself that you did when you finally need it.

  • Is it possible to retrieve deleted files from the cloud i.e. contact list?

    Is it possible to retrieve deleted files from the cloud i.e. contacts?

    If you have an iCloud backup of an iOS device that was made while the contacts were still on it, you may be able to restore them from the backup by following this user tip from Winston Churchill: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4841.

  • Opening a file from the Cloud of Adobe Reader - Ipad

    Hi,
    I have got a serious trouble with my Ipad. It's been about 3, maybe 4 days that I can't open my files from the cloud of Acrobat.com if it hasn't been open recently, thus not in the docoument.
    When I try to open a file, I click on it, and then, it do not open, just stay blocked on "Opening... X Mo." without never progressing.
    I thought it was maybe the internet connection. But the Cloud of Pages, Numbers and Keynote works perfectly.
    Then, I did some manipulations on Adobe Reader : I deleted it, then downloaded it. All the files are in it, but I can't open them. I 've checked the version of Adobe reader and it's the latest one. I've checked the version of My Ipad, and it's the lastest one too. I even turned off my Ipad, then turned it on. Nothing.
    So, I thought it was maybe the files itself. But I can open them on the cloud of my computer.
    Ps. About subscriptions, I bought the Pack (about 79€ a year).
    Sarah
    Sorry for my english, I'm french
    Hope you'll understand what I'm saying.

    Hello everyone !
    I backed up my Ipad, then restored it and... It works
    Hope It will help some of you. I was soooo deperate and then, I can get back to work

  • Is there a way to upload files directly to the cloud from bridge cc?

    Is there a way to upload files directly to the cloud from bridge cc? I use bridge to organize my files. It would be a lot easier if I didn't have to drag and drop files into the cc folder, I was hoping that there might be an easier way.
    thanks,

    When you save them just make sure you save them to your Mac and not iCloud. For those that already exist, you can move them from iCloud by dragging and dropping them to somewhere else on your Mac. To see all the files in iCloud choose file > open in either pages or numbers.

  • My files were deleted by cc from the cloud and from my mac

    after trying to sync a pc to my creative cloud folder, almost all of my files were deleted from the cloud, and I cant acces the archive folder on the web..
    i needed to restore all the files from my trash manually and now I hope that all the files are there... Why this happened? why cant I reach my archive folder on the web? I am not going to use this service again! I believe I can sue adobe for this kind of stuff...

    Hi Yarontm,
    I'm sorry to hear about your difficulties. I'm not sure what happened. One possible explanation is if you deleted your files in a browser at creative.adobe.com/files it would in turn delete them locally from the Creative Cloud files folder if file sync was turned on. Maybe that's what happened? I hope you were able to recover everything you needed.

  • I have had a file disappear from creative cloud and then the name get reassigned to a different file.

    I have had a file disappear from creative cloud and then the name get reassigned to a different file.  How do I retrieve the missing file?

    If a file with the same name is saved again then a version is created. You can see versions from the Files page at https://creative.adobe.com/files. From the Files page click on the file to go to its page. Switch from the Details tab to the Activity tab if needed. You will see the Current Version and any past versions.

  • I have just been clearing one of my computers ready to sell. I disconnected it from the cloud, and immediately all my files on the cloud appear to have been deleted so that my other computers appear to have lost them too! Any ideas!

    I have just been cleaning a iMac preparatory to sale and disconnected it from me.com then started deteting files. It seems to have deleted everything from the cloud too, so now my other computers cant see the files. Any ideas what I have done and more importantly what I can do to correct things?

    The music sync is one way - computer to ipod.  The only exception is ituens purchases.  The ipod is not a backup device.
    Copy everything from the old computer or your backup copy of your old computer, to the new one.

  • How do I delete files from the cloud

    I have numerous back issues of The New Yorker as well as old videos that are automatically stored on icloud from my ipad. I want to delete them from the cloud to free up storage space. How do I do this?

    Hi jane roth,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    Each magazine you purchase from Newsstand is considered it's own app.   You should be able to control within the app (magazine) which individual issues you wish to keep.  If you look at your Usage on your iPad ( Settings > General > Usage) you can see how much total data a particular magazine is using.  If you delete the app, you would delete all of the data associatied with it.  Here are a couple of articles that explain these options in more detail:

    iPhone, iPad, and iPod: Understanding capacity
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1867
    For your photos and videos, I would suggest importing them to your computer, confirming they transferred completely, then deleting from your iPad. This will reduce the amount of space needed in iCloud.
