FileDrop User Instructions

Visit the Site

Go to the site URL (address) provided to you. It will be in the form of either “[something].filetransfers.net” or “[something].filegenius.com”. The URL may also include a "/fileDrop" at the end of it.

You will come to a screen that will have a login area on the left and a FileDrop area on the right. Click on link that says Upload via the FileDrop. If you come to a screen that looks like the one below, continue to the next step.
 

(Green numbers correspond to the green circles in the user interface screen shown above.)

Enter Your Information   1  

On the window that appears, fill in your first and last name, email address and phone number. Note which fields are required.

 

Select Your File(s)    2  

Below, under Select Up to 10 Files to Upload, drag and drop files into the Drag Files Here box or click the "browse and select files" button. A window will appear allowing you to browse your computer files to locate the file you wish to upload. You can hold Shift or Ctrl/Alt keys to select multiple files. Once you have selected the file(s) you want, click Open.

 

Specify Recipients and/or Attach Message    3  

Depending on how the site administrator has the options set, you may see an area called Add Recipients with a drop-down box. If you wish to have one or more of the people listed be notified if your upload, simply click their names (clicking the X to unselect).

If you wish to include a comment on your files, you may enter one in the box titled Include an Optional Message about these Files.

When ready, click the blue Upload Files button. NOTE: If this button appears greyed out, you may have not filled in all of the required information. Make sure your phone number has 10 digits and your email address is properly formatted.
