If you are new to MLG, your admin will send you an invitation to use Box.
Log in to your MLG Box.com account here and use this link to access MLG’s files on the cloud.
Download Box Drive (Windows/Mac) to use Box on your laptop. Download Box Tools (Windows/Mac) to be able to open and edit Word, Excel, Powerpoint files, when someone shares a Box link with you.
When editing Box files, open them on your laptop and then save. This will automatically sync the latest file across the cloud on Box.com and Box Drive (note: sometimes sync can be delayed). Please ensure that no one else has the file open before you start editing it. This is usually only an issue if several team members are collaborating on a project.
When sharing files internally, use the Share link option. This ensures that we are not attaching files to the email. For Windows, right click on the file and choose Share (with the Blue paperclip icon) to share the link. For Mac, here is a tutorial.
Check out this tutorial by Suji on How to Use Box Drive and Box Tools.
Use the Box Gmail add-on to save emails to Box. In the right sidebar in GMail, click on the Box symbol to save the email as a TXT file to the appropriate Box Folder. You may also save attachments. Refer to this help article.
In most cases, saving emails as PDFs is preferred. Hit the Print icon on the top right of the email thread (or in the three vertical dots for a specific email if not saving the whole thread). Choose the Print/Adobe PDF or Save as PDF feature (works best in Chrome). Save it in the appropriate Box folder. Save attachments separately in the folder.

Install your LastPass plugin for the browser you use most frequently. The MLG team has a preference for Chrome and/or Safari. Follow the prompts from LastPass to get started.
You will be asked to install an authenticating app on your phone. Here is how to set up the authenticator.
When you use LastPass, the plugin will automatically give you the chance to save passwords to the application. It will also allow you to generate secure passwords for all your accounts.
All of MLG’s passwords are saved in shared folders. If you don’t have access to a shared password that you need, please contact your friendly MLG admin personnel to enable sharing for you.
Once you have set up your GMail and Clio Manage and Clio Grow accounts, please let your friendly admin personnel know the passwords so that s/he can save them in LastPass for you in our shared folders.
