This guide explains how to manually upload data (files, folders, etc.) from your computer to your kDrive without installing the kDrive Infomaniak application (application for iOS/Android smartphones or tablets, or desktop application for macOS/Windows/Linux).

Import to kDrive from the browser

To access kDrive:

1. Click here to access the Infomaniak kDrive web app (online service ksuite.infomaniak.com/kdrive).
2. Check or select the relevant kDrive from the dropdown menu in the left-hand sidebar.

Then, choose one of the following:

Drag & Drop

kDrive also allows you to open and convert iWork files created on a Mac, so you can edit them from any device. These files from the Apple Suite have some specific features, particularly with their extensions; for example, with the Numbers application:

• .numbers files can be either files or folders, depending on the save settings (and the upload behavior is different depending on whether it is a file or a folder).
• If there is already a file, for example calcul.numbers, on kDrive, and it is saved as a “package” on your desktop, then during the upload, the file will be considered a folder, and kDrive will try to upload files inside it, which is not possible, so the upload will not be allowed.
  • To resolve this issue, simply change the save format in the Apple Numbers application on macOS to “Single file”:
