Gene,

There are no other Dropbox-related choices on the context menu for a Dropbox folder than "Copy Dropbox link" and "View on dropbox.com." If one wants to share a Dropbox folder with another person, a visit to the Dropbox Website and a login to one's account is an absolute requirement, which of course can be accomplished by activating the aforementioned view-on link..

You don't have to use your account, as I recall.  I looked at this quite some time ago.  Open the Drop Box files and folders list on your computer.  Find the folder you want to work with.  Open the context menu and look around.  Whenever you want to do things don't just look in the standard menus and at times there may be none.  Look in the context menu.  Things are more likely to be there of this nature.

Log in to your Dropbox account, find the directory or file you want to share, and activate the "Share" link. Of course, if you want to share a file that's inside a directory, you have to open that directory first, locate the file, then activate "Share." . Next, enter the email address of the person with whom you want to share the file or directory, type an optional message, and activate the "Share" button.

Unfortunately this can be the case, which is why I never disclose that I'm

I tried okcupid a few years ago and I couldn't get anywhere with it. I had
trouble navigating the site. I would rather do free ones because when they
see that I'm blind in my profile, I don't get many responses. I have been on
pof now for over a year and have found nothing. I can read profiles really
well and I can also send messages with no problem. Is ok cupid like that?

Thank you so much for sharing your story with me. I greatly appreciate
it and I have to admit, I'm a lot like you. I can usually tell when
someone is a scammer or they aren't. The only time it happened to me
was when someone said how much do you make at work and he also had a
different area code than me and that's a red flag in my opinion. I
ignored this guy and moved on. I didn't even know him and he asked me
how much I made. He was also in another country and he said he was
retiring from the service next year. I just don't trust a lot of
people. I like to start by getting to know them. I have been doing
this for many years. I'll keep you posted after I try it.

I admit that I don't have a lot of experience with OKC. I never ran
into that problem with the few guys I talked to I also limited my
search to 20 miles of where I live and narrowed it down more when it
came to what sort of relationship I was looking for. I would see about
looking up how to work your profile. You know how they say to look
alert when walking out to your car alone at night? I know that doesn't
always count for a blind person, but the essence is the same. If you
look confident and alert the scammers will pass you by since you won't
look like an easy mark.
I did get a few messages that might've led that way on match, but I
cut those off quick.
I've been blind for 11 years and the years I wasn't I spent the bulk
of that on the internet. I was either playing online games or chatting
so I had a sort of scam/asshole detector going on. Match helped me
re-engage that since I hadn't been on the internet much since I lost
my sight.... It's not fair to think each potential guy is a scammer,
but I'd rather be safe than sorry again. A bad relationship decision
was pretty much a big reason I lost my sight in the first place. I
used to attract jerks, lol.
I think reading profiles can give you a good idea of the person. I
would skip profiles where they used bad grammar, "lol" a lot, and just
things like that. I also used to pay attention to the amount of
pictures they had on their profile. I know I couldn't see them, but if
there was only one or two that made me think. In this day and age it
is too easy to take a picture. Heck even I take a lot of pictures and
I'm totally blind.
With match profiles I noticed that some would copy and paste the exact
same paragraph or two so I would skip them. You just get a feel for it
I guess? I would say read the questionss, but some guys don't update
their answers. I took note of some answers and asked my boyfriend
about his answer ... his reply was that he hadn't updated them since
he created his acount years ago. hah So, get some answer/questions and
ask the person messaging you. I'd think that would be a good way to
see because you can't change your answers for 24 hours I think.
My sister, years ago, ran into a scam from an dating app. I forget
what it was called... it had to do with wire transfers and Nigeria.
When she told me about it I couldn't believe it because the word
"Nigeria" would have set off air raid sirens in my head.I won't go
into what all happened with her, but I made her get everything related
to it and report it to the FBI.
If there is any mention of money, needing this or that, or anything
not related to getting to know someone and wanting something I'd ditch
it and move on. I know as a blind person pickings are slim, but there
is no reason to settle ... ever. I wouldn't ditch it right away, but
give them time to redeem or hang themselves.
As I said I talk a lot.... I did a lot of research before I even
created accounts. I looked up how to fill out my profile, what to
include or not include in it, ways to word it, and things like that. I
also looked up how to message people and how it might go. I was really
out of the game when it came to messaging people who weren't my
family/close friends. I started with the 7 day trial with Match, was
suckered into paying for a month, and moved on to the next app which
was OKC.
It is tempting to run ahead and get things right now, but I prefer to
be prepared before I go into any endevor.
I'm in no way an expert since I was very fortunate to find someone
interesting within a couple of months, but a little info is still some
info.I know what to do, for the most part, if I have to do it all over
again.

I switch back and forth between the mobile (m.okcupid.com) and the

around wwith it a bit to be able to respond to messages I got with
likes. They changed it so that messages don't go through unless both
parties like each other. That can be frustrating when you get a
notification that someone liked and messaged you.... I used those
sites coupled with the iOS app. I had to turn VO off to swipe though
to get to the profiles that also messaged/liked me. It takes trial and
error, but I was mostly satisfied with it.
I can read profiles and the questions just fine. You have to go from
the top a lot of the times because of the way their site is
programmed.... navigating by single letter doesn't always work either.
I do some searching with find too.

There are some shortcut keys you may want to know but in general, if you already know how to use shortcut keys for common tasks in other browsers, the same keys are used.  Control d opens the save book mark dialog.  Control j opens the download dialog.  Alt f, press and hold alt, then type f, opens the only menu in the program.  There are submenus but that's the only main menu. 
 
As you up and down arrow in the main menu, you will hear shortccut commands.  I don't think control commands are announced, however.  Control takes you to the address bar, I forgot to mention that one before.
 
Also, I have been calling these things dialogs.  Chrome doesn't use dialogs for most of these structures, they are displayed as web pages.  Do you know how to use Chrome in general?  That is much more important to learn when you are beginning than to look at a long list of short cut commands.  I believe a list member has created a tutorial for Chrome.  If you want it, ask here and the person will send it to you.

Subject: [TechTalk] Chrome shortcut keys?

Does anyone have the Chrome shortcut keys in text format?  I saw an
article in the help center about learning shortcut keys but it must
have been graphics because I couldn't read it.

Gene, maybe by all estimations, I am at the lowest end of the frequency
spectrum!  Be that as it may, those I interact with, sighted or blind, treat
me with respect.  Whether or not any humor makes sense, it depends on who's
interpreting the said humor and how comfortable such a one is with whatever
interpretation is derived from the individual's thought process.  I feel
comfortable with what I do and I am NOT DIMINISHED in any way on the basis
of how I elect to approach anything.  That which is nice and good for you
may not necessarily be the same for me.  In that wise, we won't be reading
from the same page. 

Again, I can't stress this enough:  I speak of and for myself when I share
my views on this subject.  I am a co-equal with all the sighted folks I
interact with.  For me, it does not matter where my path and that of a
sighted person crosses!  Recently at Chicago's OHare, I had so much fun
hanging around the pilot and air hostesses of a Spirit Airline flight that
got me there from my coveted bush.  Upon return to my base, I had the same
fun with the pilot and hosts/hostesses of a United Airlines flight.  Perhaps
I delve into things most blind folks won't think about.  Sadly, I love to
learn a thing or two about anything that captures my interest.  Example, how
does FAA give directions to airlines when they come in to land or when they
are hanging out in the air?  This curiosity got me into the FAA offices in
my coveted bush's airport!  I learned far more than I thought I knew in 20
minutes!  These oficers are fantastic and i applaud them for what they do. 

I just read a satirical humor posted by Mr. Canazzi; was he engaging in self
deprecating humor?  It didn't come across to me that way, in fact, I like
what he had to say. 

It's all about how you choose to have your steak made; some prefer it
medium-rear; as for me, NO THANKS, always well-done!  And yes, when it is
brought to the table and served, I shall check ten times to be sure it is
well done and I don't care whether or not you're standing there with 55 eyes
watching me!  It also does not matter who's paying for the steak dinner.  I
doubt if any of my successes shall have happened if I waste my time and
energy engaging in self deprecating humor.  I consider all to be a friend,
brother or sister; whether or not anyone chooses to accord me a similar
honor is a decision I can't make for any individual.
