Skydrive

I have recently registered for Microsoft Skydrive on a new PC with Windows 8.. Can Solar accounts be uploaded to this? I have tried but get a message saying that I cannot make changes to the file.

Hi Sue,

Some users have reported problems using Solar Accounts with Skydrive. In particular you may find your that you end up with two data file like this:
MyBusiness.slr
~MyBusiness.slr

In this case the second file is more up-to-date. You should delete the first and rename the second to remove the tilde character. If this happens you should turn SkyDrive off while using Solar Accounts.

Regards
