Not quite so easy! - this setting refers to "peers", and not to the "devices" listed under My Devices

An API Key is necessary in order to use the API - please go to http://www.getsync.com/api and click on "Request API Key". Once you have your unique API key, follow the instructions for Enabling the API.

Yes, go to "My Devices", select your current device and set its initial folder status to "Disconnected". That way, for future incoming folders you'll be able to specify a path to sync to before they start syncing. The 2.0 UI is not all that dissimilar to the 1.4 UI, it's essentially just "darker" 1.4 remains available for download.

@sup3rior are you passing your API key in your call?

You're very welcome! Glad I could help and you're all sorted!

Ah! I think I spot the issue - you need to either escape the backslashes in your config file's "storage_path" setting, or change them to forward slashes. i.e: "storage_path" : "C:\\Users\\Tom\\AppData\\Roaming\\BitTorrent Sync", ...or simply: "storage_path" : "/Users/Tom/AppData/Roaming/BitTorrent Sync",

It's really simple - just install 2.0 over the top of 1.4. Your previous folders/settings, etc from 1.4 will be automatically imported into 2.0

Yes, it is! - where have you saved your .bat file? It needs to be in the same folder as your BTSync.exe file in order for it to work.

Yes! Hold down Shift whilst clicking the "Add Folder" icon to add a folder as a classic 1.4-style folder to Sync 2.0 It's not possible to convert a 1.4-style folder to a native 2.0 folder

Keys are not applicable to 2.0 folders, they are only applicable to 1.4 folders. Therefore, you will only be able to view/copy a key from a 1.4 folder in Sync 2.0, and not for native 2.0 folders. If you wish to be able to add folders as classic 1.4 folders to Sync 2.0, hold down "Shift" whilst clicking the Add Folder icon. Once you add a classic 1.4-style folder to Sync 2.0, you will then be able to view/copy it's key/link.

Use the "Send Feedback" option within the Android App. When you submit your feedback, Sync will ask you if you wish to attach debug logs

Please be patient - it is anticipated that a sticky "latest desktop build" for 2.0 will follow. As I'm sure you can appreciate the support team are presently dealing with a high volume of support tickets since the initial 2.0 release last week and these have taken priority over producing a "latest desktop build" thread. The only changes between the initial .81 build 7 days ago and subsequent .82 and .85 builds have been bug fixes. As I say though, "latest desktop build" style threads for 2.0 are anticipated in due course.

You can still sync any folder to any folder, but you need to go to "My Devices", select your current device and change it's default state to "Disconnected". This will then allow you to specify the location of subsequent incoming folders before they start to Sync, rather than automatically syncing to the default folder.

This has since been fixed for 2.0.85. It's likely that you're using an earlier 2.0.x build. Please download the latest build from the main site (as its not yet available via auto-update)

Check that the following advanced preferences are set at higher intervals than the idle interval your OS is set to sleep after: config_refresh_interval (seconds) config_save_interval (seconds) folder_rescan_interval (seconds) Also ensure that Sync's debug logging is disabled.

A number of other topics already exist covering these various issues/questions/points: An Open vs Closed Source discussion may be found here.Information on security may be found here and here.Discussions around trust and pricing for Sync 2.0 may be found here and here.As for uTorrent and concerns you may have as a result in relation to Sync, please see this post.Downgrade from Sync 2.0 to 1.4 is possible - further information/instructions may be found here.

Well, the obvious thing would be to make sure that Sync is running(!) But if nothing's happening, you can also paste the link you've received directly into Sync itself (via Preferences (cog icon) -> Manual Connection) The third alternative is to open the .btskey file attached to your email with Sync itself.

Removing folders from Sync itself won't remove any physical files, all you're doing it essentially breaking the folder's association with sync. Any data that's previously synced to that folder will remain until it's manually removed.

You've probably got two shortcuts (i.e. one in your registry and another in the "Startup" folder in your Start Menu) Removing one of these shortcuts should resolve your issue.

Yes - you can still set/change advanced preferences via a config file in the same way as you could with 1.4.

1) Go to "My Devices" 2) Select your current device 3) Change it's initial folder status to "Disconnected" 4) You'll then be able to specify the location of future incoming folders before they start to sync to your device

That is correct and expected behavior. The .bat file is essentially just a way of launching Sync with a config file. Launching it whilst Sync is already running will not work. So in summary, make sure Sync isn't running before you run the .bat If that doesn't work, check your config file, it's possible you've maybe got a syntax error in there that's preventing Sync reading the config file correctly.

You can set/change the WebUI port by specifying it in a config file, and executing Sync with that config file. i.e. your config file should look a little something like this: Save it as, and then execute sync with a /config <path_to_config_file> command line switch. You'll only need to do this once in order to import the new WebUi settings into Sync. One final comment; running multiple concurrent instances of Sync isn't recommended or indeed officially supported.

Yes - don't use the "My Devices" feature, and share links for individual folders between your devices instead. Then turn off the "Sync All" option on each folder to facilitate "download on demand".
