Part II: UVM File Space

This portion of the lab is meant to be done individually, not in groups. 

 

To organize your digital content for your academic career, it is useful to know how to access a file space set up for each UVM student.  This space can be used to store course work, important UVM related content and personal files you need access to while you are at UVM. 

 

Objective:

To access your UVM file space via a browser, as a mapped drive or as a mounted drive (Mac OSX). 

 

Lab Requirements

                This lab requires a Macbook or Windows PC (iPad or Android device will not work).  

 

1.       Open https://webfiles.uvm.edu/

a.        Notice the S in https.

2.       Upload a file to this space.

 

While on campus, you can access this space as a network drive which would permit you to drag and drop files or save directly to this location from any content editor.  To Map a Drive to your UVM network space, follow the instructions here for your operating system (Windows 7, XP or Mac OSX):

Once you complete these steps, you will see the file you uploaded via https://webfiles.uvm.edu in this space.  This is just another way to connect to and manage content on this drive.
