Office files can be downloaded from a service and saved directly on media
connected to the machine. Documents that other users have uploaded to their own accounts for sharing can also
be downloaded to your machine as long as you have viewing privileges for those documents. Certain services
allow guest users to view documents that are public. When accessing a service or an account as a guest user,
you can view documents that the owner has made public, that is, documents with no viewing restrictions.
• Make sure there is enough available space on your USB flash drive.
• To download other users’ documents, you must have access privileges to view the corresponding albums or
documents.
• Downloaded files are renamed based on the current date. For example, the first image saved on July 1,
