Why can I not type when I'm offline?

Why am I not able to edit documents in Writer when there's no internet connectivity?

When there's no internet connectivity, you can edit documents in Writer only when the Offline mode is enabled.

To enable Offline mode,

  1. Go to writer.zoho.com
  2. Choose Offline from the left panel of the dashboard. The offline documents will be listed.


3. Click on the required file and edit them. The edited documents will be updated to your Writer account as soon as you go online.

NoteYou can also manually enable Writer Offline for individual documents by right clicking on a particular document and selecting Make Available Offline.
