  1. I'm using Bittorrent Sync on an iPhone 4s with iOS 8. I have 4 shares on my phone. When I try to access the contextmenu (menu with "Share", "Auto-sync" etc.) for one of the shares (pressing the grey triangle next to the share name), I always get the contextmenu for the first (top) share. That's really annoying when you try to remove the last share in which case you have to remove all the other shares first! The contextmenu always appears at the same place: right under the first share.

     

    A little offtopic: I like the concept of Bittorrent Sync very much. I liked the simple application really until the current version. 1.4 introduced a lot of mess in the UI and unstable applications on both ios and osx. I hope everything works out in the next versions.

  2. I've found a solution for this problem. Instead of using the toggle to enable the camera backup, try to tab the folder icon on the same row (in front of the toggle switch). The app shows a (in 1.4) new screen where you can enable the camera backup. Everything works fine for me now. One disadvantage: now I have a new key for my iPhone backup so I have to enter the new key on all my devices.

  3. Hi everyone! 

     

    I have analyzed represented logs.

    The error message was issued by file name encoding error on linux (RPi).

    1. You can check file names on valid UTF8. 

    You need iconv tool.

    # cd <shared_folder_path># ls -R | iconv -f utf8 | grep illegal --color=auto

    If you see message:

    that mean in your file tree exists files with non-valid file names.

    2. Or you can wait new releases in which this bug will be fixed.

    Thanks.

    Hi denis4inet,

     

    Thank you for your response. I've tried your suggestion with no succes. I don't see any message. Hopefully this will be fixed in the next version as you say.

  4. I've installed Btsync on my Raspberry Pi (http://blog.bittorrent.com/2013/05/23/how-i-created-my-own-personal-cloud-using-bittorrent-sync-owncloud-and-raspberry-pi/) and it works for some shares.

     

    I can use only 5 of my 10 Btsync shared folders. Btsync sees all the other devices, but only displays:

    0 B in 0 files

    and 

    Synced on 05/23/2014 13:13:53

    while it never synced at all.

     

    I tried to re-add the folders en tried to use the read-only and write keys. With no succes. In the clientside logs (on my Mac), I see no strange entries. In the logs on my Pi I see the following message appear:

    Merge: failed to verify group signature of files message, aborting

    The shares that don't work on my Pi, work fine on other devices (Other mac, Android tablet and iPhone) and contain files. 

    I'm using version 1.2.67 on my Pi and 1.3.94 on my Mac.

    • Generate new secrets instead of just being able to accept them

     

    I've mentioned this before in the other (wrong) Wishlist topic. Like Clouds said: The ability to generate new secrets on the mobile client. In that case, you can start shared folder on your mobile (at a party for example) and add it later to your desktop pc.

  6. Mega doesn't need to create a desktop application if they support BT Sync. It can be useful in some cases to have some sort of "cloud". In those cases you can add your sync key to a directory in Mega. 

     

    Maybe Kim will apply for the BT Sync API :)

  7. I tried BT Sync on my Synology DS112j with no success. I used the http://www.synocommunity.com/ repository and installed the package. As soon as I execute the application, my whole NAS grinds to a halt. The network shares, the DSM web interface and all other applications stop working or become very slow. I can see the BT Sync webinterface, but it doesn't work. I can't click the buttons etc.

     

    Edit: I own a DS112j. Not a DS211j...
