If you are running Windows and using Firefox 2 or Internet Explorer 6 or higher, or running MacOS X and using Firefox 2 or Safari 3, you can download and install the File Editing Tool, which allows you to edit your files from Online File Folder. When you save the edited file, the changes are automatically saved to the file in your Online File Folder.

NOTE: The latest version of the File Editing Tool also allows you to download multiple files or entire folders to your Online File Folder at one time. The File Editing Tool hyperlink does not display if you're using another operating system, a different browser, or have already installed the latest version of the tool.

To Install the File Editing Tool

  1. Log in to Online File Folder.
  2. Click the File Editing Tool or Update File Editing Tool hyperlink.
  3. Click the Install button.

After you install the latest version of the File Editing Tool, you can edit files from any view (List, Thumbnails, or Filmstrip). When you click or double-click the file, it opens in the software application that is associated with the file type. If the file type is not associated with a software application, you can download it to your computer and open it with the software application of your choice. In addition, you can upload multiple files or folders to your Online File Folder.
