Request: Skydrive 25GB Free Cloud Storage App - Windows Mobile Apps and Games

Hi all, not sure if this is the right forum for such a topic, please let me know if this should go elsewhere.
Microsoft's SkyDrive offers 25GB of free cloud storage and has recently combined it with their Live! services (MSN, etc). Would it be possible to get a WinMo App that allows for uploading/downloading of files via SkyDrive? The official Microsoft Windows Live! client doesn't do this, it's basically an MSN client.
The app I had in mind would be along the likes of DroppedBoxx which works on DropBox, or EverNote. The benefit would be that SkyDrive is 25GB storage, FREE, without restrictions. I believe this is much more than DropBox (2GB free) and EverNote (500MB upload monthly free) offer.
If anyone has any program or any link that could guide me in the direction of a Sky Drive app, that would be great.
Thanks!

That is a fantastic idea since it integrates well into the Windows Live ecosystem.
I just wanted to add that Microsoft's up and coming Live Sync (also free) is much more similar to DropBox than SkyDrive.
EDIT: Live Sync was formerly known as Live Mesh

bump in case anyone has any leads.

I agree, good idea!

Fantastic idea, you should suggest it to microsoft.
[sarcasim] Any coment you like, just put it here. [/sarcasim]
bump.

I totally support that idea, it's a great service and having an app for this would be great, I wonder why microsoft haven't included this in Windows Live Mobile

Fantastic i'm new here and was looking for WinMo App that allows for uploading -downloading of files via SkyDrive

bump for visibility, anyone??

You can upload the files to MyPhone, then transfer them to your linked Skydrive account (then delete them from MyPhone to preserve the limited space).

[APP] Sugarsync (Dropbox alternative)

​
SugarSync is a single software and service solution that allows you to backup, store, sync (short for synchronize), access, and share all your digital assets (files, photos, music, others.) SugarSync was created with the goal of making it trivial for you to manage all your digital life and to satisfy a wide variety of use cases. The backbone of SugarSync is a real time push synchronization infrastructure that enables all these capabilities. As the end user you just need to worry about setting up you account properly and then enjoying the experience.
You can register HERE, and get additional 500 Mb of free space.
​
Note: You have to register prior to installing the mobile version.

Yes, he is fishing for referral bonus, but the referrred also get additional 500MB free so it is not entirely wrong. SugarSync is more versatile than Dropbox, but it is slower. While the WM client is free, it doesn't do a lot of things. It doesn't sync your WM files (the PC client can sync multiple folders). So other than uploading photos, it is just a convenience over the web interface.
You can use this software not only for WM but for syncing files across two or more computers.
The offiicial app is not working for me. Start and just quir. Any idea?
I report this issue and i have answer: no way. on wm6x sugarsync don't work and there is no plans to fix this. On wm6 product is end of life.
So, we need another software.

cloud service for wm6.5

is there any cloud service left suppofting wm after close of myphone, dropbox and sugarsync ?
there is droppedboxx but not successful indeed.
thanks in advance
i also wanna knw
any news?
Many, just because MS closed it's services does not mean others will.
Personally for cloud storage I use some of my hosting space & thus have our own company app market & cloud storage ability all controlled by us, simple reliable secure & cheap ...
DroppedBox is working perfectly well.
For me it's a good solution.
If you want to sign for a dropbox account with 2.5Go clic my invitation.

File Transfer to Contacts

Okay is there an app for this? If both people had the same app and of course had android... Like where I could upload something and they could download it like a mms, or would I have to use cloud sharing? Also which is the best cloud sharing and easiest for both pc and phone? Skybox/Cloud whatever microsoft calls it, dropbox or? I'd like one where I could upload everything from a pc with no transfer/UPLOADING required, just drag ad drop, plus the most storage would help.
Like WhatsApp? But max it allows is 12 MB I believe. For larger sizes I just put it on dropbox and link them to it.
Talking about best cloud service, I don't really know Cuz I don use much of cloud services.
PS - you could just mail em. for larger sizes, Google automatically does it with Google drive.
life!
Yea since posting this, I discovered es file manager has the best cloud storage options, it has 8 cloud services ya can log into (Box, SugarSync, Dropbox, Skydrive, G(oogle)Drive, S3 Amazon, Yandex and Ubunto One) I got WhatsApp so I'll have to try and talk my gf into downloading that for easier file sharing. So far she's just been logging into my cloud's and asking me to load this and that. hahaha

Question S23 iPad users

Hej, so i use macbook, ipad Pro and instead of an iphone14 i went for s23 ultra. So far happy but facing some difficulties to get used to. I know apple and samsung apps do not really 'talk' so looking for your inputs regarding sms or call app that informs both OS at the same time? Also, how do you share images to ipad now that airdrop is not a thing for me anymore.. Need to find a way.
I also ditched apple books for amazon kindle and paid for moleskin journey app that works with both iPadOS amd Samsung platforms and syncs well. Looking for any app suggestions that works on both iPad OS and samsung/android.
Thanks in advance .

I use Google Drive to share files between iPad, desktop computer (Linux) and smartphone. Sometimes an external SSD drive.
Regards.
I have the same devices, Images I offload them periodically from the phone, you can use for example Lightroom, google photos, foldersync and a network share like on a NAS.
SMS Infos , you can switch from the standard messages stuff to the google messages, they have an option to view online. Calls i dont know, i am sorry...
Feel free to ask any other app types or workflows and can share infos.

File sharing between devices , i use cable and Android Transfer , or cxfile explorer and filezilla on a mac , or just a network share where i copy the files from the phone , or sftp and copy directly on the mac from the phone.

Gdrive and google photos is my solution as well since my cloud storage now is google.
Lightroom could be a good idea. I have little knowledge about network share will check it out. Feel free to write any new app you find that syncs on both platforms.

for contacts and mails I use google services, on mac transfer all the contacts to the google account ,and calendar aswell , just use the google one. that will be present on the phone aswell , you have notes too that you can use on a mac. Alternatively you can use onenote if you like that better. these should cover it.
You got the basic answers except for sms and calls. If you happen to be on Verizon, their Message+ app will allow you to text and call on the iPad via your phone. You have to run the app on both devices. I did this a couple of years ago, but didn't really care for the app that much. I'm not sure what it is like now. As an aside, you can do this and still use a different texting app on your phone. If I recall, texts you send from the iPad won't show up in the other app though. Incoming texts show in both.

For notes i found a hack. Install google keep in ipad or mac, you can now share apple notes to google keep. Install keep in your phone and voila, shared apple notes are here. They won't auto update though but gotta live with it i had to sync my old notes from apple.
@Ornisense found another way. in the samsung notes app you can enable sync with onenote. then on the mac just use onenote
This is my setup:
MacMini M2 Pro and ipad pro 12.9 6th
Galaxy S23 Ultra and S22
Windows AMD based pc
I'm using Office 365 on all devices (family version, purchased with great discount on Amazon. It is happening sometime). This include 1TB of OneDrive space for all the users.
I've installed Onedrive on all the devices and Samsung Gallery automatically synch with OneDrive so I'm finding the pictures on all the devices at the same time.
Same tool also for the files (Onedrive is integrated in the Mac Finder and iPad File application so it is very convenient to use). Unfortunately Apple Photo is not synching with anything else but iCloud but there are alternative for picture magament (e.g. XnView or similar).
For notes I use OneNote. Working well everywhere.
PDF I have uPDF that with one license is working on Mac, Windows,Android and iPad.
VSCode is working in Mac and Windows very well.
Office app (word,excel, powerpoint,outlook) is installable on all the devices (Mac,IOS , Android and Windows)
NAS is where I store data in my house so it is a common place for all the files.
As file manager I use the great TotalCommander on Windows and CommanderOne Pro and MuCommander on Mac.

You have all the answers! My wife uses my google one subscription being a pixel user so it will be hard for me to change to onedrive but I'm keeping this in my head...
If you have a mac you can plug your s23U into it and in usb settings enable photo transfer to send your photos to the mac photo library.
There is also Macdroid and other apps if you need to copy files back and forth.
Too bad apple doesn't allow Dex any more as then it would be easy to run dex on your Mac and drag and drop between the 2.
