thanks. I'll definitely sink these folders after I get a HD that actually supports the sizes. One thing though. Do you know if those will actually stay up for a while? Because it seems as the bigger the folder, the less amount of time they'll exist for the public.

Fantastic, thanks for sharing...
On a somewhat related note, as I've recently lost most if not all of my BTSync folders due to not backing up some of the secrets, was just wondering if anyone would be kind ennough to supply me with the Harry Potter Fanfiction secret that was floating arround a while back?
It's the one that's sorted by compleeted series etc... you know the drill. It's also updated regularly which is nice.
Thanks much,

Daniel

Hello.

I have found a link on another topic that has an older version of bit sync. It is a lot more accessible than the newest version.

Here is the link. http://forum.audiogames.net/viewtopic.php?id=20197

Go to post 19 and you'll find the link to a dropbox zip folder; download it, and install the program. IF you're using NVDA then install the add-on within the folder.

I'm sorry, I can't help with other screen readers as I do not use them.

Hi,
The newest version of bt sync is actually quite accessible if you install it as a service. It opens in a web browser.
Yes, you can selectively sync if you have a pro license with the latest resilio sync.

@timberwolf1991
what is this pro license you're talking about? and what is this resilio sync thing?

Hmm,

Does resilio work with btsync? I thought it had its own little thing going on, good to know. Does that placeholder sync feature work with btSync folders as well?

hi,
also, is there any way to selective sync these folders? I really would like the audiobooks and e-texts folder but don't have enough space. Would also be interested in documentaries if tv has those.  Could also seed as I am on a 1gbps semetric connection.

Hello.

I've decided  to keep using the older bt sync client. I just tried the newest program and installed it as a windows service. I found that I couldn't get passed the sign up to the email news letter page without having to put my email in, in other words; there was no skip button. So I've decided to use the older program.

That dialogue goes away when you click the unlabeled button , maybe even by pressing escape. The interface takes some getting used to but I am syncing all but the music folders selectively now.

Hey Wolfie,

Quick question. Can I link one device to another? Say ...I sync folders x, y and z on my pc, can I get the exact same config on my phone without having to add the folder keys again to my phone?

Hi,
Going to address each of these posts one by one.
Zersiax:
Yes you can. Go to options, my devices, and at the very bottom you can click on my devices.
Keep in mind, and this goes for anyone using the web gui, I'm using firefox and NVDA here, so your mileage with anything else may vary.
Once you click on link a device, there should be an option for mobile or desktop. Click mobile, and from there it should tell you to scan the code that shows up on the screen.
If not that, you can link it manually, which is the other option, which means you type in the key it gives you. This also goes for other computers as well, as long as you have one machine that's your main desktop or what not. Every folder that gets added, as long as all the computers used the same central key to connect, will be added to each other. Example:
You add laptop 1 and 2 to your desktops list of folders. The folders from desktop get transfered over to them. You add a folder on laptop 2, it also gets added, along with your default setting (selective sync, fully synced or disconnected) on laptop 1 and desktop.
Does that make sense?

enes:
OK, I'm going to get you to do a few things here first because I'm honestly not sure of the desktop keyboard command.
Using NVDA and firefox, go to the folder name you want to right click. Hit capslock (aka NVDA from now on) shift and m. This should focus that folder.
Now hit NVDA right bracket. At the very bottom of the screen you should see things like copy read only secret, selective sync on and off, disconnect, pause syncing of this folder, etc.
You might have to maximize the window, alt tab in and out of firefox etc to get the folder to focus when you hit NVDA shift m.
I hope that helps a little. It took me ages to figure that little tidbit out.
By the way, I can't get this working in chrome or internet explorer and not sure why. Other screen readers mileages may vary too! I can try jaws when I get a bit of time on my hands, too.

Hi,
If you need me to I can give it another shot. I actually tend not to add all the folders from my computer to my phone, since I have over 30.
One nice thing on the phone, though, is they default to disconnected. Once you enable selective sync, there's a weird button right next to the folder (or in the menu of the folder) that lets you turn selective sync off and sync everything.
Also, when you add new secrets or connect a folder, there are checkboxes in that diologue that allow you to turn selective sync on or off. Both of them will appear to be checked, so just hit space on the one you want. Note that NVDA's focus mode and jaws forms mode will need to be disabled for this to work.
Hope that helps!
