Hi,

I get an error saying iDisk can't sync because a Word document is in use. Why can't iDisk sync when a Word document is open? Dropbox syncs the file after each incremental save operation is performed.

iDisk is not DropBox (or as good as). I find it best to just copy word docs to my desktop, work with them, save them, then replace the iDisk copy and let it sync (if using local iDisk).

Any chance to open files directly in iDisk web side ?
I don't want to download on my desktop first ... for security reason ...
