1. Is "Backup using Dropbox" (mentioned as #3 here: http://infoqubeim.com/drupal5/node/987) the same as "Synchronization between computers " (discussed here: http://infoqubeim.com/drupal5/node/3066)?
2. I am confused about the statement:
"Dropbox is unable to backup your file while it is in use. (Note: revisions are only made for the last 30 days in the free version). If IQ creates a backup in the same folder, there is the advantage that Dropbox can back that up while the IQ database is open."
So can it create a backup while in use? What is meant by "If IQ creates a backup in the same folder". What folder is that referring to?
3. To use Dropbox backup do I need to install the "Dropbox desktop app" to create a local folder on my PC? If I understand correctly how Dropbox works, the backup will then be created locally on my PC and on Dropbox..??

The link you gave above …
The link you gave above (https://infoqubeim.com/drupal5/index.php/comment/3066) doesn't work. The correct link is https://infoqubeim.com/drupal5/node/3066, which is the link that I already gave in my original post. I did read it, and that is why I have the questions.
Could you or some someone else please answer my questions 1-3?
(Alternatively, we can discuss at the next CS).
The link works fine, perhaps…
