FIIP

Trash and restore

What it is

When you or a teammate delete a file or folder from a drive, in Finder or in FIIP DRIVE, it goes to that drive's Trash first, so it can be put back. Each item shows who deleted it and how many days it has left before it is gone for good.

How to

  1. Open FIIP DRIVE and pick the drive.
  2. Press ⋯ beside the drive's name and choose Trash. You can also open the Tray and choose Trash.
  3. Find the item and press Restore. To bring back several, select them and press Restore in the bar at the bottom.
  4. FIIP DRIVE says "<file> is back in <folder>". Press Show to see it there.

To delete something in the FIIP DRIVE window, select it and choose Move to Trash (⌘⌫).

If something goes wrong

  • "<old place> was taken, so <file> came back as <new name>". Something new already had its old name, so the restored file got a new one. Both are kept.
  • "It isn't in the Trash any more." It was restored already, or its time ran out.
  • "The drive couldn't put it back." It is still safe in the Trash. Press Restore again.
  • "Trash unavailable". FIIP DRIVE can't read the Trash right now. Check your Wi-Fi and look again in a moment.
