00:00:08.570 --> 00:00:13.240
You can use Office Online to store and work
with your own personal files - or you can

00:00:13.240 --> 00:00:17.950
share them with others, including friends,
co-workers, and anyone else you want to collaborate

00:00:17.950 --> 00:00:18.950
with.

00:00:18.950 --> 00:00:22.630
Before you get started, though, you need to
know how to create files in OneDrive - and

00:00:22.630 --> 00:00:24.500
how to open them too.

00:00:24.500 --> 00:00:29.090
To create a new file, click the New button
near the top of the screen… then choose

00:00:29.090 --> 00:00:31.160
the type of file you want.

00:00:31.160 --> 00:00:35.840
In this example, we'll choose Excel workbook.

00:00:35.840 --> 00:00:40.170
OneDrive will open the file automatically,
so you can get to work.

00:00:40.170 --> 00:00:48.760
Click here to give your document a name…
then click anywhere to save the name.

00:00:48.760 --> 00:00:55.050
When you're done, click OneDrive to return
to the main page.

00:00:55.050 --> 00:00:59.030
You can also create folders, and files inside
of folders.

00:00:59.030 --> 00:01:02.489
Folders are great because they can help you
stay organized, and they make it easier to

00:01:02.489 --> 00:01:04.610
share multiple files.

00:01:04.610 --> 00:01:08.740
To create a new folder, go to New…

00:01:08.740 --> 00:01:12.400
Folder… then give your folder a name.

00:01:12.400 --> 00:01:17.720
When you're done, press Enter on your keyboard.

00:01:17.720 --> 00:01:22.500
You can also use the default folders that
came with your account.

00:01:22.500 --> 00:01:28.890
To create a file inside a folder, just click
the folder you want… then follow the usual

00:01:28.890 --> 00:01:32.710
steps for creating a new document.

00:01:32.710 --> 00:01:34.610
Let's skip ahead a little bit.

00:01:34.610 --> 00:01:40.220
Now I have several files in this folder, ranging
from spreadsheets to presentations.

00:01:40.220 --> 00:01:43.670
Here's one I'd like to open so I can work
on it some more.

00:01:43.670 --> 00:01:48.110
With Office Online, you can edit your documents
online, without having to leave your browser;

00:01:48.110 --> 00:01:53.240
or you can open them in the desktop version,
as long as you have Microsoft Office 2010

00:01:53.240 --> 00:01:55.229
or newer on your computer.

00:01:55.229 --> 00:01:59.660
To get started, click the file you want.

00:01:59.660 --> 00:02:03.340
OneDrive will take you to a preview.

00:02:03.340 --> 00:02:07.829
Click the Edit Presentation button on the
toolbar… and a menu will appear.

00:02:07.829 --> 00:02:14.340
We'll try Edit in Browser first.

00:02:14.340 --> 00:02:18.750
Your file will open in the appropriate app
(in this case, PowerPoint), where you can

00:02:18.750 --> 00:02:22.480
edit it using these tools.

00:02:22.480 --> 00:02:27.790
To save and close, you can just close the
tab.

00:02:27.790 --> 00:02:31.950
Let's go back to the preview—and this time,
we'll try opening the file in the desktop

00:02:31.950 --> 00:02:33.359
version.

00:02:33.359 --> 00:02:36.600
You'll always find the option here, under
Edit Presentation.

00:02:36.600 --> 00:02:42.989
Depending on your browser and your security
settings, you may get a warning asking if

00:02:42.989 --> 00:02:45.290
you're sure you want to open the file.

00:02:45.290 --> 00:02:51.510
Click OK, or Launch Application to confirm.

00:02:51.510 --> 00:02:54.900
Your file will open in the desktop version
of the program.

00:02:54.900 --> 00:02:58.900
To continue, you may need to click a button
near the top of the window that says Enable

00:02:58.900 --> 00:02:59.900
Editing.

00:02:59.900 --> 00:03:03.880
Then you can edit, and make as many changes
as you want.

00:03:03.880 --> 00:03:11.120
When you're done, remember to save the file…
then close the program.

00:03:11.120 --> 00:03:16.430
The changes you made will be saved in OneDrive
as well.

00:03:16.430 --> 00:03:20.669
As you can see, working with Office Online
is easy—once you know the secret to creating

00:03:20.669 --> 00:03:23.330
files and folders, and opening documents too.
