  • The document will automatically open if you have the appropriate editing software installed. For example, Word documents will likely open in Microsoft Word by default.

  • Please allow a few seconds for the document to open, especially if the default editing software is closed.

  • Make changes to the document and click Save.

  • Changes made will be saved as a new version of the document in CASEpeer.

  • Previous versions can be viewed by clicking the dropdown arrow of a document and selecting Version History.

  • NOTE: You may need to refresh the page to view the new version by default. You may also need to refresh to open and edit the new version by default.

NOTE: CASEpeer File Sync only supports Save for the same document. Using Save As will prevent CASEpeer File Sync from syncing the changes to the document stored in CASEpeer.

  • Instead of Save As, please upload a copy of the document in CASEpeer and open the new document via CASEpeer File Sync to make changes.

  • If you are using Office 365, you will not be able to use the Auto-Save, synchronous collaboration/editing features, or Word Online features as they are not compatible with CASEpeer File Sync.
