MyIT Tip of the Week




MyIT Tip of the Week

Accessing OneDrive from a Classroom computer

OneDrive is our university’s solution for personal file storage.  Faculty, students and staff can safely store files on OneDrive, knowing that they will be available wherever they are.




The OneDrive app is available on your computer, and once you have synced your local files to One Drive they will be available on the web.






OneDrive also allows access even if a user is logged into a different account, such as when faculty use the SMART classrooms. It does not matter which account is logged into Windows, through the online portal hornet.emporia.edu users may retrieve their OneDrive files by logging into Hornet365:


1: Go to http://hornet.emporia.edu and select Log In.
2: Select the OneDrive Tile. 
  





From there you can open any document or play a video if it is saved to your OneDrive.  You can also share files with others from OneDrive.  You may share files with other ESU staff, faculty or students, by selecting their email address.  You may also share files with email addresses outside of ESU, but exercise caution that you are not sharing protected information.

More information on this is available at hornet.emporia.edu under MyIT.
