Install Glide Desktop Applications on multiple desktops for automatic synchronization of all of your files and information with Glide. Easily upload your photos, music, video, documents, contacts, calendars and bookmarks. Glide "One" will automatically sync files you create and edit online in Glide and on your local desktops, keeping all of your files in sync all of the time.

Glide "One" makes it possible to access all of your files from your mobile device. You can even create and edit files in Glide on your mobile device, and automatically sync them to your local computer desktop(s).

In addition to keeping your files in sync, Windows™ users can import contacts and calendars from Microsoft™ Outlook™, Outlook Express™ and the Windows Address book, as well as bookmarks from Internet Explorer™, Safari™ and Firefox™. Mac Users can import contacts from the Mac Address Book and events from iCal calendars as well as bookmarks from Safari™, Camino and Firefox™. Linux and Solaris users can import contacts from Thunderbird LDIF files, Sunbird iCalendar files as well as bookmarks from Firefox™.

Files synced to Glide are automatically converted into compatible previews for a broad range of devices. Glide supports over 250 file formats. [Please note: 1) If you are syncing a large number of files, it may take some time for previews to be processed and appear in your account; 2) Password-protected or DRM protected files can be stored in Glide, but previews will not be created.]

Glide Desktop Applications also includes Glide Crunch: the first of a suite of local productivity applications to be released. Glide Crunch is a full-featured collaborative local and online spreadsheet application available on Windows, Mac and Linux and Solaris PCs for cross platform compatibility and workflow. Spreadsheet files created in Glide Crunch (.gcr) are automatically synced to both your local hard drive and to your online Glide account for anytime, anywhere access from your PC or mobile handset.
