I have created my first TiddlyWiki on my Laptop (Windows 10), added it my Google Drive and synchronised it using TiddlyDrive. I can then access the TiddlyWiki through my Laptop but not Chromebook or my phone Note 9. Any help or guidance on how to access a TiddlyWiki on Chromebook and Android phone would be much appreciated.

Hi, I open my Google Drive app, and open the tw file there. Then I create a shortcut on my homepage.
There also seems to be an app but I haven't used it.

Hi Ray, Thank you for responding and I have tried that but it is not working for me - I just get a green line going across the the top of the screen. Cheers, John

There is a plugin for Google Drive save i believe.

You can find it here: https://googledrive.com/host/0B51gSXixfJ2Qb0I4R2M4MWJVMlU

Hi Ray,

Just get the following error message when I use the link.

404. That’s an error.

The requested URL /host/0B51gSXixfJ2Qb0I4R2M4MWJVMlU was not found on this server. That’s all we know.

Cheers,

John

G'day John, and welcome to TiddlerHood!

I don't have any suggestions based on the contents of this thread so far, but I did want to just confirm that TiddlyWiki (on Google Drive with TiddlyDrive Add-On) does works A-1 on my Chromebook.

Silly question just to confirm how you access your TiddlyWiki via your Windows computer: you go to GoogleDrive and double-click on your TiddlyWiki file to open it, yes?

Hi CJ,

Yes that is correct I just locate file and tap on it.

Hey John,

If you have the time and the inclination ...

A sanity check: on your Chromebook, download an empty.html TiddlyWiki to your Google Drive, and test opening that on your Chromebook. Let us know if all is well or if there is anything wonky going on.

Cheers!

Happy Tuesday Eve! (Don't mind me, I celebrate Tuesdays fiercely. Tuesday: the light at the end of my Monday tunnel ...)
