    the .sync directory off of where you run the executable from
  2. Harold Feit
    Did you remove the ".sync" folders that were created in the locations you ran sync from?
  3. Harold Feit
    Every time from the same location?
  4. Harold Feit
    Using what specific version of sync?
  5. Harold Feit
    How did you launch sync on the device?
  6. Harold Feit
    It means that the relay servers (in case of firewalled relay connections) are in the US. No decryption happens on the relay servers.
  7. Harold Feit
    There's a file in one of your folders that is an apparent index of the rest of it that is being updated semi-constantly. It's not part of sync so it's part of something else you have active on your system causing the constant sync of it.
  8. Harold Feit
    All of this description and there's no mention of which version of sync is being used.
  9. Harold Feit
    Put a "~" before any entry in your syncignore that you want to apply to all subfolders
  10. Harold Feit
    not really, just not something you were using before.

    Preferences - Authorization.

    Each individual device can have the secret no problem. If you're having problems, it's probably because your devices are mirroring their configuration for some reason. Sync, with the full access secret, is 2-way.
  13. Harold Feit
    You can't add the same secret to the same device multiple times. Any device you add the secret to can sync the files. What is the EXACT message you get with the second android device?
  14. Harold Feit
    In your firewall most likely.
  15. Harold Feit
    Syncronize the clocks of ALL your machines to the same time server.

    The DHT and Tracker communications are ONLY for peer discovery, not for actual data transfer.
  17. Harold Feit
    Make sure that at LEAST one of tracker server or dht is enabled. You might consider using relay when required as well.

    They're in the folder preferences for your shares in the sync interface. In the web interface, they're on the general tab. On windows machines, they're on the properties tab.
  19. Harold Feit
    What peer discovery options do you have enabled?
  20. Harold Feit
    You should upgrade all the versions and replace all the rules in your internet security software on all your machines for the new version.
  21. Harold Feit
    The way things currently work, as individual machines get the files, they contribute to other machines getting the files. The two machines together on one network should be getting maximum speeds because of the direct connection, thus allowing them to synchronize faster unless you've fiddled with advanced settings. Sync chaining like this won't work quite as well as you'd think because of the fact that having multiple systems uploading would allow the overall average speed out of the slow network to be higher.

    How long after restarting sync are you waiting? I found that it takes a few minutes to populate the share list after restarting sync on those devices.
  23. Harold Feit
    If your target device is a FAT32 drive, you have exceeded the filesystem's limit for that file.
  24. Harold Feit
    What version of BTSync? Are you sure it's not just a case of the transfers of the files going faster than the indexing?
  25. Harold Feit
    What speeds of transfer are you actually getting?
