Use your computer normally

Delete without understanding the consequences
Deleting files deletes them for everybody and every computer who uses that folder
Take advantage of backups
Need an version or accidentally delete a file? Restore it yourself instantly. If your company has a Business Edition account and IT staff, you can also ask your helpdesk to remotely restore it for you
Move folders without understanding the consequences
Moving a folder outside of a Syncplicity folder deletes it from that folder. It will also be deleted for everybody and every computer that has access to that folder.
Pick a secure password
Choose a difficult to guess password 8 characters long with letters and numbers
Move Syncplicity folders directly
Syncplicity folders on your computer (those marked with the Syncplicity logo) should never be moved directly. Use the client to perform the move.

This allows Syncplicity to automatically protect you and your company while making you more efficient
E-mail files to yourself
Access your files through syncing your computers or through the www.syncplicity.com or m.syncp.com mobile website
