7.3 Configuring an iFolder Account

Use the iFolder Account Assistant to add and configure a new account. You must configure at least
one iFolder account before you can create iFolders or share iFolders on your system. You can create
only one account for any given iFolder host service, but you can have multiple accounts. You can
log in separately to each account and be logged in concurrently to multiple accounts.
Multiple users with different local login identities can have iFolders on the same computer. iFolder
prompts the active user to set up an account on the first time the iFolder client runs under that local
user identity.
IMPORTANT: iFolder 3.7 introduces a new feature, auto-account creation, which helps the iFolder
administrator to create and configure an account for you. If your iFolder administrator has enabled
auto-account creation, you don't need to configure an account for yourself. When you start an
iFolder for the first time, you are prompted to enter your password. Enter your password to complete
configuring the account.
