You can synchronize your Novell Vibe files with your computer, then modify the files without accessing the Vibe site directly. Additions and modifications are synchronized between Vibe and your computer. If you delete a Vibe file from your desktop, it is not deleted in Vibe, and is synchronized back to your desktop at the next synchronization.

Your Vibe administrator must enable this functionality in order for it to be available. For information on how administrators can enable this functionality, see Configuring Vibe Desktop and the Microsoft Office Add-In in the Novell Vibe 3.4 Administration Guide.

  1. On your personal workstation, download Vibe Desktop from the Novell Downloads Web site.

For information on how to change the default location, see Changing the Vibe Desktop Location on Your File System.

You should not synchronize files to a location on a network that can be accessed by multiple computers. If the Vibe Desktop folder is on a network location that is accessed by multiple computers, synchronization issues can occur when Vibe files accessed from either computer are out of sync with each other and with the Vibe server.

4.0 Manually Synchronizing Files

You can manually synchronize files between Vibe and your computer if you do not want to wait for the scheduled synchronization. Files must be closed before they can be synchronized.

8.0 Synchronizing Your Teams and Favorite Places

When you first configure Vibe Desktop, you can choose workspaces and folders in your teams or favorite places to synchronize. You can also configure Vibe Desktop to synchronize files in your teams and favorite places any time after the initial configuration.

Before you can synchronize favorite workspaces and folders, you must ensure that the workspaces and folders that you want to synchronize have been added as favorites in Vibe. For information on how to add a workspace or folder as a favorite, see Adding a Favorite Place in the Novell Vibe 3.4 User Guide.

To configure your teams and favorite places in Vibe to be synchronized to your computer:

  1. Click the Vibe Desktop icon in the menu bar, then click Open Desktop Console.

  2. Click Synchronized Workspaces to display the workspaces that are currently being synchronized.

  3. Click Add.

  4. Expand My Teams and My Favorites, then select the workspace or folder that you want to be synchronized to your computer.

    By default, only Files folders and Photo Album folders can be synchronized. Folders that are dimmed cannot be selected by default. For information on how to configure these folders to be synchronized, see Configuring Folders to Be Synchronized.

  5. Click OK.

9.0 Configuring Folders to Be Synchronized

9.1 Synchronizing Files Folders and Photo Album Folders

Files folders and Photo Album folders can be easily synchronized to your computer with Vibe Desktop because they require each file to have a unique name. For more information on how to synchronize Files folders and Photo Album folders that are not already synchronized, see Synchronizing Your Teams and Favorite Places.

9.2 Synchronizing Mirrored Files Folders and Micro-Blog Folders

Synchronizing Mirrored Files folders and Micro-Blog folders is not supported in this release of Vibe Desktop.

9.3 Synchronizing All Other Folder Types

Some types of Vibe folders such as Blog folders and Wiki folders must first be configured in Vibe in order to be synchronized with Vibe Desktop because by default these types of folders allow you to add multiple files with the same name to a single folder. Synchronizing folders that have multiple files with the same name would be confusing in Vibe Desktop because when you view a folder through Vibe Desktop, you see only the files that are within the folder and not the entries that contain each file.

You can configure folders such as Blog folders to require unique filenames if you have rights to edit the folder in Vibe. After you configure a folder in this way, you can then synchronize the folder to your computer with Vibe Desktop.

  1. When you access Vibe from your browser, navigate to the folder that you want to configure to support Vibe Desktop.

  2. Click Folder > Edit Folder in the Action toolbar.

  3. Near the bottom of the page, select Require that all files uploaded into this folder have a unique name.

  4. Click OK.

10.0 Changing the Vibe Desktop Location on Your File System

VUBE Mac OS

By default, Vibe Desktop is installed in the Users/username/Vibe folder on your file system.

The Vibe folder contains a folder that is named after the Vibe account name that you created when you first configured Vibe Desktop, as described in Configuring Vibe Desktop for the First Time. This folder contains all of your synchronized files. To quickly access this folder, follow the steps in Viewing Vibe Files from Your Computer.

When you first configure Vibe Desktop, you can specify the installation location on your file system. You can change the location of the Vibe folder at any time after initial configuration:

  1. Click the Vibe Desktop icon in the menu bar, then click Open Desktop Console.

  3. Click OK > Apply.

  2. Click Open Desktop Console.

  3. Click Account Information in the Novell Vibe Desktop Console dialog box.
