.!sync files are temporary files created whilst data is being received. They are safe to delete, however, if they relate to a file currently in the process of being received, that file will begin transfer again from the start.

Please check the date/time is correct on your device and on all other connected devices in your mesh.

There actually exists portable versions of Sync - however, this feature was officially dropped some time ago as of Sync 1.2.82 (although continued to work for early 1.3.x builds too)... so if you can find one of those builds, you can run Sync portable. Otherwise, this thread is certainly the right place to request that portability be brought back

If you go to "My Devices", and select one of your connected peers, Sync will display the version of Sync running on that device (along with its IP and MAC addresses)

The changelog has now been updated to 2.5.9. There are only minor cosmetic changes in this update.

You may like to check out Resilio Connect which offers centralized management of permissions/shares. I suspect these Connect-specific "Enterprise" options won't be back-ported into Sync Business

Sounds more like it may potentially be a bug. I've moved this to the troubleshooting forum, but you may also wish to open a support ticket.

As the conf file is essentially a JSON file, each line in a section (apart from the last) needs to end with a comma.

There is - you can enable debug logging. Do be aware though that Sync can't sync files that are open/locked/in-use by other applications - which may be the reason why some of your files are not immediately syncing

The "folder_rescan_interval" advanced setting can be used to set a recurring interval at which your folders are re-scanned for changes. If changes are not being picked up automatically, this regular re-scanning setting should pick them up.

The team are aware of this issue and are working on a resolution - please see this post.

Have you tried unticking the "Show notifications" option (Settings -> General), and changing the advanced Power User setting "enable_file_system_notifications" to false?

Don't worry - 2.5 will come to auto-update in due course. New builds are always announced here on the forums in the first instance and initially only available for manual install/update. The main reason auto-update isn't usually enabled at the same time as a new build is announced here, is to allow the team to capture any significant issues from the sub-set of users who manually update, that perhaps weren't picked up in testing/QA phase, before pushing a new version out to everyone. Typically it can be anywhere from a few days to a few weeks before auto-update is enabled.

Is it possible that you entered the key incorrectly? Where did you obtain the key? If it was copied & pasted from an email, did it copy correctly? (i.e. if the link/key "wrapped" onto a new line in the email, when copying it may have inserted a space/copied as two lines instead of one, etc)

Did the port number change? (Settings -> Advanced -> Connection -> Listening Port) if so, perhaps your firewall is blocking it? See also: https://help.getsync.com/hc/en-us/articles/205450205-Peers-aren-t-connecting

Sync 2.5 now includes the ability to "filter" your folder list by "All", "Connected", or "Disconnected" folders. Selecting the "Connected" filter hides all your disconnected folders from view

You misunderstand - I said any "user" (i.e. a user of Sync) can receive an individual file. Sync is still required

Folks, Sync 2.5 is now available which includes "improved IPv6 compatibility"

All, I'm happy to report that Sync 2.5 is now available which includes the ability to both sort and filter history!

Folks, I'm happy to report that Sync 2.5 is now available which includes the ability to share individual files! (Pro users can "send" individual files, any user can "receive" them)

You appear to have originally joined in July 2013. At that time, Sync was part of BitTorrent Inc. BitTorrent Inc's forums were previously hacked. Resilio have since taken over development of Sync, and those parts of the original BitTorrent Inc forums relating specifically to Sync were transitioned across to these new Resilio forums. Users who signed up on the original BitTorrent Inc forums prior to 1st February 2016 are able to use their previous credentials to login to the Resilio forums. It's important to note that Resilio's forums themselves have not been "hacked".

Other thread has now been merged into this one to form single feature request thread

Moved to Feature Request forum and merged with similar threads all requesting the ability to "prioritize" transfers

The timezone itself is less of an issue - if a device is the correct time within whatever timezone it's set to, you should still be able to sync (as Sync references all times internally back to UTC anyway). A "time difference" error occurs when a peer's clock is wrong within the timezone it's set to. For more information, please see: https://help.getsync.com/hc/en-us/articles/204753599--Excessive-time-difference-error

Dear community, Resilio Sync 2.4.5 is now available. It may be obtained it via direct links below, or via official download page. This version has not yet been published via auto-update. UPGRADING FROM BITTORRENT SYNC Sync is now released under the Resilio brand, it is treated by OS as new application and will propose you to migrate all your settings from old BitTorrent Sync app (settings are backed up during migration). Please carefully read these articles about updating to Resilio Sync and migration of settings. DOWNGRADE Resilio Sync will make a backup copy of all your settings prior migration into "sync-v2.3.7-1471003319.backup"-like folder (version and timestamp may vary). If you decide to return to 2.3.*, you'll need to manually copy the content to your storage folder, remove Resilio Sync and be aware of next downgrade drawbacks: You'll downgrade to "Free" version and you'll have to re-apply license manually. File association with license files *.btskey is broken so you'll need to apply license in BTSync UI Linking new devices to downgraded Sync is not possible. You'll need to recreate identity if you want to link some new device. Downgrade is not supported for Selective Sync folders (as all placeholder files are renamed to *.rsl*). If you downgrade and your Sync has Selective Sync folders, your files are going to be deleted on all peers.
