Here’s how to make sure your Notability files and Pix\/Videos are backed up.<\/p>\n

Notability<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Open Google Drive. Look for for the folder “Notability” – nose around to see if that last thing you created is there. If so, things are working.<\/li>\n
  2. OR<\/strong> In Notability, create a new note. Scrawl something on there, then exit the note. Look at the bottom left corner – you should see the “Backing Up” circle go. If so, then things are backing up.<\/li>\n
  3. If things are NOT working<\/strong>, then call up settings [the Gear icon, bottom left], select AutoBackup. Login to Google Drive. The defaults [\/Notability folder, PDF format] work well.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Pix & Vids to Drive<\/strong><\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Open up Drive App<\/li>\n
    2. Click the “hamburger menu” – the 3 stacked lines, top left<\/li>\n
    3. Select Settings–> Photos<\/li>\n
    4. Turn “Google Photos Folder” AND “Auto Backup” ON. The WiFi\/Cellular settings don’t matter since your iPad does NOT have a cell radio.<\/em><\/li>\n
    5. You should see a “Google Photos” folder – all of your pix and videos will be there after they finish uploading.<\/li>\n
    6. NOTE: Deleting a photo\/video on your iPad DOES NOT delete them from Drive.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
