  1. I am uninstalling btsync because of a fundamental issue in it's approach. I know others doing the same. From the source Windows machine, my android app syncs the subdirectory and file structure of a shared top-level directory flawlessly. However, and crucially, it does not sync the actual files, only a placeholder to create the structure. To sync the actual file, that is have the actual bytes on my device, I need to select that file in the Android app. I'm syncing say 200 files. I'm on a plane and no longer have WiFi. I need a file that I thought was sync'd but of course no, I have not previously selected it in the app and so I am seeing only the placeholder. So, no good. I have hunted through all options in both target and source devices, and nothing seems to force download of the actual files. Only the structure. Until this changes, I will not be using this application.
  2. There is no "sync all" option in the directory menu list. There is only Share, Pause, Details, and Peers. None of these options has a Sync All sub-option. So this does not fix the issue for me.
  3. I have a newb question that, despite much Googling, I am surprised I cannot find a simple answer to. I have linked a Windows PC and an Android Phone. For the sync directories I have chosen on my Windows PC, I wish them all to be synced immediately to the phone. However, it seems they only sync on demand, when I choose a file on the Phone. How may I do a first-time sync of the entire directory contents, in bulk, without having to manually click each file?
