What does the OneDrive folder do?
When you install the OneDrive app for Mac, a copy of your OneDrive is downloaded to your Mac and put in the OneDrive folder. This folder is kept in sync with OneDrive. If you add, change, or delete a file or folder on the OneDrive website, the file or folder is added, changed, or deleted in your OneDrive folder and vice versa.
To upload files to OneDrive automatically, just copy or move the files to your OneDrive folder using the Finder, or save them in your OneDrive folder from an app. Files you upload this way can be up to 10 GB in size. If you installed the OneDrive app on other computers, the files will automatically be added to the OneDrive folders on them, too.
You can also use the Finder to rename and delete files, create new folders, and move files around in your OneDrive folder. The changes will automatically be made in OneDrive and your other computers that have the OneDrive app installed.
TIPS
To rotate photos in OneDrive, open them in Preview, rotate them, and then save them. The photos will be automatically updated in OneDrive.
If you use a lot of storage space in OneDrive, it might take a long time to download all your files when you first install the OneDrive app. For tips on maximizing the transfer speed, see Maximize upload and download speed.
Do I have to install the OneDrive app on all of my computers?
No. If you don't want to keep all the files in your OneDrive on a computer, you can still work with your OneDrive on that computer by going to the OneDrive website.
Why do I have to confirm my OneDrive folder on my Mac?
OneDrive is following recommendations from Apple that Mac OS X apps have sandboxing. With sandboxing, the OneDrive app will access only the files it needs on your Mac. This means we need to ask you to confirm the location of your OneDrive folder. If you select any folder other than your current OneDrive folder, you'll have to go back through setup and re-download the contents of your OneDrive. To learn more about app sandboxing, search the Apple website.
How do I show or hide the OneDrive app icon in the Dock?
The OneDrive app icon is hidden by default. To show it in the Dock, click to deselect the Hide Dock iconcheckbox in Preferences.
Can I choose folders in my OneDrive that I don't want to sync on my Mac?
Yes. When you first set up OneDrive, click Choose folders to sync. If you didn't do this when you set up OneDrive, you can do it in Preferences:
Click the OneDrive icon in the menu bar.
Click Preferences, click the Choose Folders tab, and then click Choose Folders.
For each folder, you can choose to sync everything in the folder, individual folders within the folder, and files that aren't in any subfolders within the folder. If you choose to sync only some items, new items you add to the OneDrive folder on your Mac will sync to OneDrive, but items you add to OneDrive from the website or other devices won't be synced to your Mac unless they're in the folders you chose to sync. If you choose to stop syncing folders on your Mac, they'll be deleted from the OneDrive folder on that computer, but they'll remain in OneDrive.
NOTE: You can't choose individual files you want to sync, and you can't choose to sync files or folders shared with you.
Can I change the name or location of my OneDrive folder?
No, you can't currently do this. If you use the Finder to rename or move your OneDrive folder, OneDrive will stop working.

OneDrive for Business is cloud storage provided under our Microsoft 365 educational licensing. The storage is actually a part of SharePoint Online, and Emory receives 'unlimited storage' as a part of this.
Every user at Emory has a 5TB (terabyte) personal quota. Office 365 Groups and SharePoint sites start with a 1TB quota and dynamically expand.
To gain access to your OneDrive for Business storage, you can use the:
- OneDrive for Business app
- With Windows 10 Fall Creators Build and newer, or a later Mac OS, you can have benefits like:
- Easily identify personal (consumer) OneDrive, OneDrive for Business, and SharePoint Online Document Library synchronization within file explorer.
- Files on Demand - only keep files downloaded locally that you need. With very large quota's, local computers will not be able to sync all your storage locally. So OneDrive for Business will auto download icons for all files, download the full file when you need it, and auto recover space when you no longer access it.
- With Windows 10 Fall Creators Build and newer, or a later Mac OS, you can have benefits like:
- Mobile client on iOS or Android OS
- Outlook Mobile on iOS or Android OS
- Web app http://email.emory.edu, then open the App Launcher/Waffle icon in the upper left. You can then choose OneDrive for Business
