The reason there is a cloud sync password as well as the login password is because some customers wish to have a very strong password protecting their data stored in their cloud account. Each device running mSecure must be using the same cloud sync password in order to be authorized to sync in the information stored in that sync file. There is also a cloud sync password that is used to encrypt and decrypt the data in the mSecure sync file stored in your Dropbox account. There is the login password that you use to login to mSecure, and this password is used to encrypt and decrypt your data stored locally on the device. Two passwords are necessary when you are syncing your data via Dropbox. If you have already set up the Dropbox sync feature on another device, then you should already have a cloud sync password, and you can move on to the next step named, “Set Existing Cloud Sync Password”. If this is the first device on which you are setting up the Dropbox sync feature, you will be prompted to create a new cloud sync password, which will be explained shortly. If you set up a new Dropbox account in the first step of this tutorial, you will most likely already be signed in, so you can simply click on the “Allow” button. If you were already logged into your Dropbox account, then the only window you will see is the one in the screenshot below. If you are not currently signed in to your Dropbox account, simply enter your Dropbox credentials, and click on the “Sign in” button, then you will be asked to allow mSecure access to your Dropbox files and folders. Select the “Sync with Dropbox” option.Īfter clicking on the “Sync with Dropbox” option, mSecure will open your computer’s default web browser where you will be able to authorize mSecure to link with your Dropbox account. Click on the “Cloud Sync” tab, then click on the drop down element just underneath the tabs in the preferences window.Īfter clicking on the drop down, you will see three options.

Enter your basic account credentials, and create the account. If you don’t already have an account, open the web browser on your Mac, and go to /register. If you already have a Dropbox account, you can move on to the next step. mSecure 5 will not sync with the previous version. IMPORTANT: Version 3.5.7 is required to sync via Dropbox.
