Open password protected files and folders
I Downlaoded a software and locked my folder in PC and my flash diska as well with password, then I uninstalled the software unexpectedly then I loss all Documents. Pls help
Want to be able to open password protected powerpoints as read only when I don't have password
It's not really "completed" if it still doesn't support separate open vs modify passwords. I have docs that many people need to be able to read, but only I can modify- and I often need to do so on the go. I'm not going to "disable one or the other", as the admin post suggests, just to use CloudOn.
When this feature works, I will use Cloudon, and be happy to pay for it. Document level security is especially vital in the new cloud based world.
Big desception. It was a very nice app until realize that my password protected files wont open.... Very sad
It is hard to understand why little applications like QuickOffice and others can handle password prtected files while cloudon running the app in huge server cannot. Can you guys try to explain?
You can not call this app "real MS Office" without password protection. Please make the effort to support encrypted password protected files. Otherwise people like me will loose interest as we will feel unconfortable to put our confidential files in the cloud without miinimum protection.
Wow the guys at Cloud On have finally done it - new App upgrade actually works perfectly on my iPad with Password Protected Excel Docs (2010) - well done.
Adding this feature is fundamental to CloudOn's success for Microsoft Office capabilities! I don't know how many comments you need to push this into the priority bin - it is critical to me and I can't emphasize the importance enough. Please advise on when you will deliver password protected capabilities.
Even Apple's iWorks can open a Password protected MS Office files! How can CloudOn be considered to be a "real" MS Office on the Cloud?
Please do this. I keep confidential information, passwords, financial, etc. in excel files and am not moving them to cloudOn until I know they are password protected.
Any software product claiming Office-compatibility must be able to open password-protected files. That capability is a definite "must have".
Without the ability to open password protected files, CloudOn is completely useless to me!!!
Hi all, So basically this programme fails like many of the others and to be honest I am not impressed that there is no fix as surely it can't be that difficult ? So guys when can we expect this update please ? Andrew
Are you serious? '...currently under review...' Do all of these cloud providers get together and say things like "Hmm, what feature can we disable to make our service suck more and prevent the world from ever have a complete cross-plafrom syncing and editing of Office docs?" Docs2Go, Pages, QuickOffice do not allow edits to be saved to the same dropbox file causing duplicates. Onlive Desktop will not sync with Dropbox and no Onlive Sync app exists on any platform making Onlive worthless. At the suggestion of many netizens, Cloudon was supposed to be the cure. After all, it will finally allow real cross-platform sync! But wait! Password protected files are not supported making it just as useless as Onlive and any other 'cloud' service. Great job guys. You are succeeding at sucking. The first one to make a complete cross-platform sync office editor that doesn't suck wins at life and becomes the next multibillionaire.
Brilliantly designed app, best I've seen yet, but password protection a must on the Cloud, so please include this on your next release. If Documents to Go can do it, so can you (you are soooo much better than them!)
The ability to open password protected files is essential to this otherwise great product.....hope to see this feature included very soon.
If it's not possible to use protected documents/files in cloudon app is useless to me. Is Can you tell when 'protected' feature is due?
For me CloudOn is seeing an Excel file as password-protected when it is not, so won't open it. Is there a way around this?
To me this is an essential feature, as I work with confidential files. For now, I will stick with using DocsToGo even though I have to jump through several hoops to keep edits. CloudOn is SO much more elegant and useful, I want to use it!
Would really appreciate this, and frankly, my 80 years old mother needs it too!!!
I can open password protected docs in QuickOffice, DocumentsToGo, Numbers and Pages on the iPad. This is a needed feature in my opinion.
I only feel comfortable putting password protected documents out on the cloud... For an extra layer of security. Please provide this update sooner rather than later,
Please add my vote to not only wanting this capability but also NEEDING it. Thank you for an otherwise excellent application.
In a world where there are hackers and people trying to steal personal information, I think that this feature is very important. I hope to find it available soon!
I think this feature is very important, if you lose or someone steals you iPad they can open any of you spreadsheets or documents. I wanted to keep a very important document but when I found out that I could not use a password I deleted the app. Let me know when you fix this problem.
I think any of the cloud storage sites have plenty of security, the one who can support password protected documents would be in a class above.
Come on you guys, we all need this feature its a must, that's what Excel, Word etc. is all about. The Numbers App. does it why can't you. Think of the clients you will lose. Why are we waiting?
Without the ability to use password protected docs cloudon is no good to me. Please add the feature ASAP. Thanks!
Yep need to be able to open secure documents and unlock/lock the document from amendments lets hope this feature comes soon
I agree - I really need this app but it is no good if I cannot open password protected documents.
Yep, definitely need this function. It's the only thing stopping me using it daily.
I do agree with others, being able to password protect documents is important. I look forward to this update!
Please put this on the priority list. I have several files on Dropbox that need to contain pwords, which means I can't access on CloudOn....? Thx
Same here. If I can't use password protected documents, then this app is useless to me.
