Overview

Quickoffice allows you to use a WiFi network to transfer documents between your iPhone or iPod touch, and a desktop computer running Mac OS X, Microsoft Windows XP, or Microsoft Windows Vista. Files are transferred in one of two ways, either by mounting your mobile device as a drive on your computer or by using the web browser on your computer to communicate with your device.

When your mobile device is mounted as a drive, you move and copy files to and from the device using the Finder on Mac OS X, or the File Explorer on Microsoft Windows platforms. When using a web browser, Quickoffice presents a friendly web interface which allows you to browse the contents of your device, and exchange files with the computer.

Note: iWork files cannot be transferred using the web browser interface. Please mount your iPhone as a drive to transfer iWork files.

back to top

Requirements

File Transfers makes use of the WiFi networking capabilities of the iPhone and iPod touch to exchange files with a desktop computer. Quickoffice supports Macintosh computers running Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard, Microsoft Windows XP SP2 and Microsoft Windows Vista SP2.

Before you can use File Transfers, you will have to connect both your mobile device and the computer to the same Wi-Fi network. The current Wi-Fi network settings for the iPhone and iPod touch may be found in the Settings application. For instructions and troubleshooting tips, please refer to the documentation that came with your mobile device. Similarly, please refer to the documentation provided with your operating system for help in connecting your computer to a Wi-Fi network.

File Transfer Settings

You can access the File Transfer settings from two locations within Quickoffice:

1. The WiFi icon from the Home screen.

2. The WiFi button in any directory listing screen.

The File Transfers Master Switch

The File Transfers master switch allows you to enable and disable the File Transfers functionality altogether.

File Transfers Master Switch

Beneath the master switch, Quickoffice offers status information about the file transfer connection. When enabled, this status information presents the internet address that you can use to connect to your mobile device on its local network.

File Transfer Authentication Settings

When File Transfers are enabled, Quickoffice also offers authentication settings. Authentication can be enabled or disabled under the File Transfers settings.

Authentication On-Off

When Authentication is disabled, any computer that attempts to make a connection to your device may do so without requiring the user of that computer to enter a username and password.

Note: If you disable authentication, other computers on your local network will be able to connect to your mobile device and access the files it contains.

When Authentication is enabled, Quickoffice will display fields for setting a username and password before allowing the computer access to the files on your device.

Username and Password

Once the username and password are set, when any computer tries to connect with the device, Quickoffice will ask the user to provide that same username and password before allowing that computer access to the files on your device.

Note: File Transfers authentication settings are only used to validate whether or not a computer can connect to your iPhone or iPod touch, but File Transfers does not use a secure connection to transfer the content of files. Using File Transfers on a public WiFi network, even with authentication enabled, can put the security of those files at risk.
