PC backup to AT&T Locker.

I wanted to be able to access my desktop computer files from my phone and my phone files from my desktop computer. So, I have one of my phones backed up to the #AT&T Locker (1.7GB). I also backed up my pictures and videos from my desktop computer to AT&T Locker (3.2 GB). So I have a total of about 4.9 GB of data in the AT&T Locker.

When I open the AT&T Locker folder from my desktop I can only see the files from my phone. 

When I open the AT&T Locker folder from my phone I can se both, the files from my phone and the files from my desktop.

Why can't I see the files from my desktop from my desktop? Can there be a setting that I have to set in order to see them?

Also, is there a setting for an automatic backup every day or every week or so? I haven't been able to find it.

Other than that, I can access al of my files from my desktop on my phone, so it is working great.

Your help will be appreciated.

Thanks

Hello @ingchapin,

 

It’s great to hear AT&T Locker is working well for you! I would love to assist you with this today!

 

AT&T Locker will not show the desktop files online as they are already on the computer, and the files on your phone are not. I would advise clearing the cache and cookies on your browser, or trying a different computer which does not have the files on it.

 

Also your phone should backup to AT&T Locker every time a change is made, such as the addition of a contact. You can also manually create a backup whenever you’d like.

 

I hope this helps and you’re able to retrieve your files! Have a wonderful day!
