peterforum Posted May 15, 2016 Report Share Posted May 15, 2016 Hi, I've just installed the trial and, after some considerable time, got my laptop and desktop syncing. Please tell me 1) When I buy the licence do I need to buy one for both my laptop and desktop to keep them syncing or will one licence work for both? (this is the only sync I will use). 2) Transfer speeds seem to be around the 600 - 800 kbps, units are connected via home wifi router (one wireless one ethernet) This seems very slow. Please advise? 3) Advice for syncing pre-populated folders includes instruction to use 'disconnected' mode on computer 2, can change this to 'synced' after setup as disconnected (folders only I think) is of no use to me? Thank you, Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, your license is "per identity" not "per device", therefore to sync you personal laptop with your personal desktop (or any other personal devices), you'll need a single license. 14 minutes ago, peterforum said: 2) Transfer speeds seem to be around the 600 - 800 kbps, units are connected via home wifi router (one wireless one ethernet) This seems very slow. Please advise? Please refer to the Sync Help Center: Download/Upload speed is very slow How can I improve data transfer/sync speed? 14 minutes ago, peterforum said: 3) Advice for syncing pre-populated folders includes instruction to use 'disconnected' mode on computer 2, can change this to 'synced' after setup as disconnected (folders only I think) is of no use to me? I think you've mis-understood what a "Disconnected" folder is. This refers to its initial state when first added to sync, once you then "connect" the folder, it will continue to sync as normal - it doesn't mean it's permanently disconnected and will never sync!
