Does anyone know how to use Dropbox?

[lurker172602]

I want to load some photos from my iPad to my laptop.  I have Dropbox on both, but I seem to only be able to move them one at a time, which is going to take forever.  Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong, or what I should be doing?

Unsure, Captain.  

But if you have Dropbox on both,  shouldn't the photos be in both be on both already.

I found this lot....may help.....may not

Thanks stawks.  I have no trouble once they are in Dropbox, it's getting them from Photos on the iPad into Dropbox that's giving me grief. It's fine when I select just one photo, but as soon as I select more than one the option to Save to Dropbox disappears. 

I realise use I could do something like email them but seeing as I have Dropbox I thought I would use it

Evening Lurks,

What's a - Dropbox??????????????

[lurker172602]

hahaha it's a file sharing thingy helen.  I don't really understand it - obviously 

I've realised I can do what I want to with airdrop, so I'm doing that now.  It's all good   

I'm trying to update the photos of the LPs that I have on one of those digital photo frames, so it's a very important job.

I find it really handy when I take photos with my phone and want them on my pc instantly

AirDrop or DropBox Donna?

Some "cloud" thingy helen that's doing what I want to do somehow.  

I find these things a little like my car.  I'm quite happy to put petrol and oil and water in it, but have absolutely no knowledge or interested in what's going on under the bonnet.
