Accessing your SpEd Forms transfer folder
If you have not already done so you may need to contact SpEd Forms and request a transfer folder.  Once your transfer folder has been setup you will be given a web address and a username and password for your WebDav folder. NOTE: Vista users may need to install a "Software update for Web Folders" from Microsoft's website (see step 3).

1. In Windows 7 or Vista:  Open "Computer" (on your desktop or from the Start Menu), right click in an empty area and choose "Add a Network Location".
   In Windows XP:  Open "My Network Places" and double click "Add Network Place".
2. Click "Next" and while "Choose another network location" or "Choose a custom network location" is highlighted, click "Next" again.
3. Type in your "Transfer" folder's address (assigned by SpEd Forms) and click "Next".
   use the following format:
   https://15.spedforms.org/T1234
   (Vista users: if you get an error after clicking "Next", see note above about installing a "Software update for Web Folders").
4. When your are prompted, enter the username and password given to you by SpEd Forms especially for this folder.
5. Change the network place name if you desire and click "Next".
6. Take note of what this network place is named and click on "Finish" (If you have "Open this network place when I click Finish" checked you will be prompted for the username and password again because this is a secure server).
7. A new window will appear. Use this as you would any folder on your computer (drag and drop files, delete and add items, etc.).

Reconnecting to this folder is easy. Windows XP users: Open "My Network Places", Windows 7 or Vista users: Open "Computer" and expand the "Network Location" section (if necessary) - then double click the network place that you created earlier (enter the username and password if your are prompted).

1. Click on "Connect to Server" from the "Go" menu.
2. Type in your "Transfer" folder's address (assigned to you by SpEd Forms).
3. Click the "+" sign next to the address to add this server to your favorites.
4. Click on the "Connect" button.
5. When your are prompted, enter the specific username and password that was given to you by SpEd Forms (filling in the Domain is not required).
6. Click "OK", a new window and a new drive will appear on your desktop. Use this as you would any drive or folder (drag and drop, move things to the trash, etc.).

Reconnecting to this folder is easy.  Open the "Connect to Server" window, click on the address in the "Favorite Servers" sections and click on "Connect" (enter the username and password if you are prompted).

1. Open "Terminal" (Go > Applications > Utilities > Terminal)
2. You must first create a mount point on your Mac.  The mount point must be an empty folder and can be almost anywhere, the standard place is in the "Volumes" folder ("/Volumes/T1234" is used in the following examples).
   If your Mac is rebooted the mount point may disappear, you may want to include this in your script.
   mkdir /Volumes/T1234
3. Use the following command to mount your WebDav folder (substitute your address and mount point):
   Enter your username/password when prompted & (for no prompts) check "Remember this password in my keychain".
   mount_webdav https://15.spedforms.org/T1234 /Volumes/T1234
4. To view the files in your WebDav folder, type (substitute your mount point):
   ls -a /Volumes/T1234
5. Once the folder is mounted, you can use rsync or just a simple cp command to copy or upload files to your WebDav folder (in Terminal, type man cp to learn more about the cp command).
6. Use the following command to unmount your WebDav folder (substitute your mount point):
   umount -f /Volumes/T1234
7. Here is a typical bash script (substitute your address and mount point):
   #!/bin/bash
   if [ ! -e /Volumes/T1234 ]; then
   mkdir /Volumes/T1234
   fi
   mount_webdav https://15.spedforms.org/T1234 /Volumes/T1234
   cp -v /some-folder/data.csv /Volumes/T1234/data.csv
   umount -f /Volumes/T1234

NOTE: After downloading the Goliath disk image decompress the file and double click on the .img file. A disk image named 'Goliath 1.x.x' should now be available. Simply drag and drop the Goliath folder contained within the disk image to your hard disk.

1. Open the Goliath 1.x.x folder and double click "Goliath 1.x.x" icon.
2. Type in your "Transfer" folder's address (assigned to you by SpEd Forms) then enter the username and password.
3. Click "OK", a new window and a new drive will appear on your desktop. Use this as you would any drive or folder (drag and drop, move things to the trash, etc.).

Reconnect using the same instructions as above.
