Title: Restoring from Dropbox
Post by: rocu on January 16, 2016, 06:12:27 PM

DL1608, MF3.2.3

How do you restore from a backup saved to Dropbox? The only import option I see is iTunes.

If it's the only way, how do I get my files from my Dropbox account into someone else's iTunes?

Thanks,

iOS is back-asswards from what you'd expect. Go into dropbox and "send" the file to Master Fader. Normally the app that "owns" the file is the one that has to export it to another app.

Thanks, that looks like it will work.

Another question:
If I import a backup file will it replace the files/shows/snapshots already on the iPad?

I suspect no but definitely backup all the shows first. I only use one show.
