  What is AnyTime?
  AnyTime access allows you to store computer files so you can access them whenever you want, even when your PC/Mac is offline. This also provides the added benefit of giving you a secure backup of your information. Unlike other backup services, information secured with Media Bridge AnyTime can be retrieved and viewed remotely via a mobile phone or web browser.
   
  How Does It Work?
  Log in to your account on a web browser interface. At the top center of your Desktop tab, there is a gauge that shows how much storage space you have available and how much is used. You can click on the "What's this?" link to get more infomation about the gauge. Please note that this ONLY appears in the web browser interface, and not on the mobile phone interface.



AnyTime works by caching an encrypted copy of your information in our secure web servers. Only information that you specify will be affected. Currently this works on a folder / subfolder basis.
   
  How Do I Store Folders?
  Log in to your account. Find the folder you want to store. Once you’re inside the folder, there is an option to “store” at the top right. Confirm the “store” and leave your computer on and your Media Bridge agent running.

Media Bridge will begin caching in the background and queue your files for storage. Under normal circumstances, you won't even know that Media Bridge is busy in the background as it knows how to throttle the resource usage to give priority to any local task.

When you make a change to a stored file, the Media Bridge Agent will automatically detect and queue the updated file for storing. You don’t need to manually select and replace the stored file. You always have the latest file on hand.

To unstore a folder, go to your selected folder, and where there used to be "store", now there is an "unstore" option in the top right. Click on "unstore".

   
  User Interface Elements
  If you are wondering about the progress of your "stored" folders, just click on the “Desktop” tab in your account, then click on your computer icon. Media Bridge will display a list of folders that have been designated for storage and the progress of each operation.



There are also visual indications on the desktop itself. The different states of a given folder are described below:

   
  Give It A Try!
  After the folders are stored for AnyTime access, disconnect your computer from Media Bridge or shut down and access the information from another computer or your phone. This feature is especially critical if you are sharing information with a group of people. Regardless of the state of the source computer, you can be sure that anyone who needs access to the shared data will be able to access it.
