@ragnarok / @nrgbod - 1.4.103 has since been superseded by 1.4.110. Do you still experience your issues when running this latest build?

Turn off the folder's "Store deleted files in folder archive" setting, or consider reducing the advanced "sync_trash_ttl" setting (the default is 7 days, reducing this to say 1 will mean that files will only persist in a folder's .sync/Archive folder for 1 day instead of 7)

Have you tried with the latest 1.4.110 build?

Are you referring to the desktop app, or specific mobile app?

Yes - please refer to this article.

Correct

"suddenly"? Have you recently performed an update to Sync, as folders shouldn't just vanish!? The latter - when you add a folder to sync, if its contents are already identical to the folders on the other devices you're syncing it with, Sync will simply re-index the folder but nothing will actually transfer.

You can check/set it via the config file, or you can set it by running Sync with the --webui.listen <ip:port> option. See this article.

Unfortunately, once set, it cannot be changed, short of re-installing Sync. The reason being is that the name you choose forms part of the security "finger print" of the device. The developers have commented, however, that they may provide a way to change the name/identity in the future, as a number of users have expressed a desire to be able to change their identity once set.

What about "config_refresh_interval" and "config_save_interval", as per the instructions in the first post in this thread?

As I say, it's "per key/secret" rather than "per instance of Sync"

For Sync 1.4 and earlier, essentially yes, there is a 50 peer limit per secret/key. However, whilst the feature set of Sync 2.0 Free vs Sync 2.0 Pro hasn't yet been published, it's likely that the forthcoming "Pro" edition will allow for a greater number of peers than the free edition.

That's because you need to set it to "false" - a setting of "true" will move deleted files to .sync/Archive, a setting of "false" won't. Also, note that this setting applies only to folders you subsequently add to Sync. For existing folders you need to untick the "Store deleted files in folder archive" option. For more information, please refer to this article in the Sync Help Center.

Please have a look at this blog post. Also, your assumption that "the software itself is probably limiting the upload speed" is incorrect. If you have the Upload/Download speed limits set to "0", speeds will not be limited by Sync itself.

As RomanZ has indicated above, there is currently no ETA or "roadmap" for when official packages will become available/updated for various NAS vendors

I believe Helen means a adding the DCIM folder on your Android device to Sync as a standard/regular/ordinary "read-write" folder, rather than adding it via the "Camera Backup" feature

Please see Point 4 above - Sync will detect that the folders are already "owned" by another instance of Sync and ask if you wish to reset ownership. Bottom line - a folder cannot belong to two difference instances of Sync at the same time.

You currently can't, short of removing it from 2.0 and then adding it back again.

Folks, for an update on the current DS414j/comcerto2k situation, please see this post.

If short, practically you can't, primarily because: 1) Sync doesn't run as a native Windows service - meaning that it only runs when an account is actually logged on 2) Sync's settings/databases etc are user-account-specific on Windows. That means that if you're logged into Windows with account A, add some folders to Sync, logoff and login as account B, those folder's you added to Sync from account A, won't be present when running Sync under account B. 3) Unless every Windows user account has full administrative rights, you won't be able to access another user's "documents" folder 4) You can't add the same physical folder to multiple instances of Sync running under different user accounts on the same device (if you do, Sync will prompt you to reset ownership on the folder, which will then make it accessible to that instance of Sync, whilst breaking other instances of Sync running under different user accounts)

Folks, you may be interested to learn that "selective pause" is coming in Sync 2.0, and that it is now in open Beta and available for community testing! UPDATE: Sync 2.0 is now available and offers the ability to selectively pause each folder from syncing

Moe is incorrect - If you have 3 connected nodes, one being R/W (let's call it "A") and the other two R/O ("B" and "C"), then the following should happen: B and C will receive data/changes from A.B and C can also share received data between themselves.Changes made on B or C will not propagate to other devices

What version of Sync are you running? The latest 1.4 build (1.4.110) contains a fix for issues preventing HDD from sleeping on NAS's

Realistically, currently you can't as Sync's "ignoreList" allows you to define discrete exclusion rules, rather than inclusion rules. You'd therefore have to add individual exclusion rules for every single possible file type (except for .7z files) that might at some point be present in your folders - not very practical! You may, however, like to consider adding your voice to this thread in the Feature Request forum though.

Yes - utilize the API ...specifically, you could use the "set_prefs" API call to dynamically change the "download_limit" and "upload_limit" parameters
