#CLOUDMOUNTER PRICE PASSWORD#

Once a drive or directory is encrypted, you can further lock or unlock it with the same password you used to encrypt it, preventing any additional alterations. If you forget one, you'll have to manually look it up in the Keychain Access app, where it'll be stored not under 'CloudMounter,' but under the name of the particular drive or directory you've encrypted. You also can't use the Keychain to retrieve passwords from within CloudMounter. You have to enter it twice to find out whether you've accidentally incorporated any typos. There's also no way to see the password you're typing. (A handful of files took two to three minutes if you're encrypting or decrypting big chunks of data, expect a long wait.)ĬloudMounter doesn't make it easy to create passwords though you can add passwords to the Keychain, you can't use its ability to suggest new passwords the way you can in web forms. Right-click any folder on your CloudMounter drives, select Encrypt from the pop-up menu, choose a password, and wait a few minutes while CloudMounter chugs through its 256-bit encryption scheme. This great idea, in theory, might need a little more polish in practice.Įncrypting and decrypting whole drives or directories - you can't encrypt individual files – works simply enough. It can scramble any non-Google files on your remote storage so that anyone not using your particular copy of CloudMounter sees only gibberish files - even when logging in via a web interface. Tales From the EncryptedĬloudMounter prominently boasts of its encryption abilities. I downloaded it using Google's web interface, where it remained perfectly intact, deleted it from the cloud, re-uploaded it, and a second download worked fine.

#CLOUDMOUNTER PRICE PDF#

One PDF file I downloaded from my Google Drive just wouldn't open, citing file errors.

Google Docs files are their own proprietary format, so you won't get much out of copying them to your desktop. I only experienced a few bumps when moving files back and forth. You can see all your drives, and mount, unmount, or encrypt them, or display them in the Finder, via the discreet CloudMounter icon up on the right side of the menubar.

Nifty little icons next to their file names in the Finder show you whether they're uploading, downloading, etc. Dragging files to and from them felt seamless, and uploads took no longer than they do for iCloud – and often felt much shorter. Once setup and mounted, those drives worked like any other on my Mac. CloudMounter works with a whole buffet of services and technologies, including Dropbox, Google Drive, OneDrive, Box and more.
