    I am currently working on a photobook on blurb. But my laptop is about to die! I need to rescue my photo book before that happens. Is there a way to upload it to blurb online before it is finished so that I can access it from another computer? Ive tried copying it to a usb key but it wont open on the new computer. Any ideas??
    Thanks!

    I think Blurb autosaves, maybe someone could confirm? So as long as you can recharge it, you should be able to rescue it.

    It does autosave but you would be better off to export the book to file and then move the file to a memory stick. I'm not sure if this will save all the photos to the single file as well but I would recommend copying them separately in case you need to access them again.
    The exported file should have all the currently placed files in it and this can then be opened on a different computer with all the work and photos in place. I don't know, however, if the remaining photos that you have not yet placed will also be saved for working on too. I doubt it. I would expect that the exported file will have the book with the placed pics only but not the unplaced ones, so have the folder of images to hand so that you can finish the book elsewhere if needed.

    Open a dropbox.com account and save the file along with your image folder to the new 'my dropbox' folder, it will be backed up to 'the cloud' automatically and made available to any other PC you log in with.
