What is Dropbox?
Dropbox is software that links all of your computers together via a single
folder. It’s the easiest way to back up and sync files between computers.
The Dropbox Desktop Application is software that watches a folder on your
desktop computer and syncs any changes to the web and your other
computers.
The Dropbox Website allows you to access your files on any computer from
a web browser. You can also use the Dropbox website to share your files or
folders with others.
The Dropbox mobile website and Dropbox for mobile devices allow you
to connect to your Dropbox from your pocket, so you can take your files
with you wherever you go.
The Dropbox Contextual Menu
When you Right-Click (Windows/Linux) or Control-Click (Mac) a file or folder in
your Dropbox, you’ll see a menu. This is called a contextual menu. The
Dropbox desktop application installs a sub-menu there that allows you fast
access to some of Dropbox’s best features.
The Dropbox System Tray/Menu bar icon
The Dropbox system tray or menu bar icon is where you can check the current
syncing status and change your Dropbox settings.
