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

Import to kDrive from the browser

To access kDrive:

1. Click here to access the kDrive Infomaniak web app (online service kdrive.infomaniak.com).

kDrive also allows you to open and convert iWork files designed from a Mac to edit them from any device. These files from the Apple Suite still have a few peculiarities with their extensions; example with the Numbers application:

• The .numbers can be files or folders depending on the chosen recording (and the behavior during upload is not the same when it is a folder).
• If there is already a file for example calcul.numbers on kDrive and if it is saved as a “package” on the desktop, then at the time of upload the file will be considered as a folder and kDrive will try to upload files inside, which is not possible so the upload will not be allowed.
  • To solve the problem, simply change the recording format in the Apple Numbers application on macOS to “Single file”:
