DesignMongrel Posted March 25, 2014 Report Share Posted March 25, 2014 I ran into a huge issue when I accidentally renamed a folder on my Macbook and essentially broke the link I had to my Raspberry Pi cloud. I had to do some clean up work but I had to wait for everything to resync and then relink the folder via secret code on my Pi. Is there any way to fix this? Read only option? Rename the folder from the root directory? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RomanZ Posted March 26, 2014 Report Share Posted March 26, 2014 DesignMongrel, If you renamed the folder that was added to BTSync - you can either rename it back, or just remove in BTSync from UI then add a new folder with the same secret. It won't re-sync files if they were not changed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DesignMongrel Posted March 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2014 Maybe it had not relinked to the root folder because it was during a live sync then? I should do some tests because there was a folder in there that will not sync through, I think assuming that the folder was still in there, but I had removed it from the destination sync because I've read some horror stories on here regarding lost files and I didn't want BTSync to delete it by mistake.

RomanZ Posted March 27, 2014 Report Share Posted March 27, 2014 DesignMongrel, Actually BTSync removes files only to SyncArchive. This is done intentionally to make sure no valuable data removed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
