- Setting up iDisk

Set­ting up iDisk

1. Go to the Settings

2. Choose “Add iDisk account“
Add WebDAV

3. Set the iDisk’s direc­tory (optional), user­name, pass­word and descrip­tion
(Any name you want for the Web­DAV)
Set up iDisk

4. Test the con­nec­tion by press­ing the “Test con­nec­tion” –button

Exam­ple:

If your iDisk user­name is john1980 and pass­word is pass­word try this:

direc­tory: leave this field empty (Doc­Scan­ner™ will use the root direc­tory)
user­name: john1980
pass­word: pass­word
descrip­tion: iDisk

When “Test con­nec­tion” but­ton says “Con­nec­tion was successful”, next try to send one page doc­u­ment with wi-fi con­nec­tion.
Some­times long mul­ti­page doc­u­ments just can’t be sent with a slow connection.

  1. Drag cor­ners to move them? This doesn’t seem to work what­so­ever… thus ren­der­ing the app use­less. Am I miss­ing some­thing here?

    • Hi,

      You are unable to move cor­ners by putting your fin­ger to cor­ner and mov­ing it? It should work and we have had no reports that it doesn’t before. What iPhone OS and model are you using?

  2. Con­nec­tion to Idisk works by leav­ing the direc­tory field blank. When upload­ing, the fol­low­ing mes­sage apears : 409 con­flict : par­ent must be acces­si­ble collection.

    Can some­one help me with this?
    Thanks,
    Luc

    • Hi,

      You need to add trail­ing slash to path like this: Documents/

  3. I’m using Doc­Scan­ner 2.0 on iphone 3GS (3.1.2). I left the idisk direc­tory field blank + my mobileme id/password and the test but­ton was suc­cess. But when I try to save a scanned image to idisk, the doc­scan­ner appli­ca­tion just exits with­out error mes­sage. I tried chang­ing idisk direc­tory from blank to “Documents/” or just “/”, but same result. Any ideas?

    • Sorry, I take that back. I real­ized that scans were being saved and this was nor­mal behav­ior. Sorry.…(I didn’t think the appli­ca­tion would auto-exit after upload­ing to idisk). You prod­uct rocks!!!

  4. Hi, I can get the files saved to the idisk root direc­tory but i want them in a ‘receipts’ direc­tory. no path i enter seems to work. What is the path for idisk, even if just to ‘doc­u­ments’ please

    • Cur­rently it is so that you need to have the folder in place. If you first cre­ate the folder and then insert the path it will work. We will make this more con­ve­nient soon.

  5. When I try to test the con­nec­tion for iDisk I get an error mes­sage ‘Failed 402 Pay­ment Required’

    Can you pro­vide any suggestions?

    • I also have the same prob­lem. I have a valid mobile me account but get the mes­sage 402 pay­ment required. I stuck. Please help!

  6. We are try­ing to set up our iDisk with Doc­scan­ner and we keep get­ting this error mes­sage: 402 Account Error: Nonex­is­tent. The account def­i­nitely exists and we checked and dou­ble checked the cre­den­tials. What could the prob­lem be?

  7. i have the same prob­lem it doesnt move the field so it choses what to scan not what i need
