Click the Apply button

You have now made the Zone's files available to other users in your group and in the whole world to load and view. Since the Write checkboxes are not checked, other users may not make changes to your Zone. You may check the Write group and world checkboxes to give permission to others to upload changes to your zone.

Accessing a Zone stored on the cloud

Users who want to load your zone must type in the zone reference into the Zone launch window. A zone reference looks like this:

/Users/Glenn/TestWiring

This is a path that starts with Users, then include the username, then the name of the zone.
