Organize LIT SUITE Case Files in the Files App and Finder

Use iPad and Mac Storage Locations to Organize Case Files Across Local Storage, iCloud Drive, and External Devices

You can organize LIT SUITE Case Files using the Files app on iPad or Finder on Mac. Both allow you to move, copy, and organize files across locations such as On My iPad, iCloud Drive, external drives, or supported cloud services.

Keeping Case Files organized in folders makes them easier to locate and import into LIT SUITE apps when needed.

For guidance on recommended storage locations, see Case File Storage Recommendations in our Help Center.

Browse Storage Locations

Both iPad and Mac display available storage locations in the sidebar of the file browser.

Common locations include:

  • On My iPad or Mac local storage

  • iCloud Drive

  • External Storage (USB drives or other connected devices)

  • Third-party cloud services you have enabled

If you plan to store Case Files in iCloud Drive, see Using iCloud Drive for Case Files in our Help Center.
