There was nothing to report since there was no .dropn900 directory at all Maybe you're missing the directory creation step?

Great app. One of the most useful on the N900 for me
Well done jonnenau - keep up the great work.

Right. It's checked on every startup, but if the creation fails im not sure what I can do. Now am not assuming access rights anymore. I think you had USB connected and mass storage mode enabled? This would make /user/home/MyDocs unavailable and you could not create the folder of anything else.

Try to remember and report back, if its so I can easily fix this. Well I can try it out myself too. Fix would be to recognize the fail and skip config reading and show a note to restart with usb disconnected


Skip that... Must be tired, its /home/user/.dropn900 and it is available when on mass storage mode :P

dropn900-0.1.2-2 now available as a download/update!
  • Fixed fatal bug: app crashed and burned on start up for users that did not have /home/user/.dropn900 config dir.

I've installed this, still haven't used it yet since I'm installing a clean OS on all my PCs, but a question.

Is there functionality for DropBox to sync ONLY when on Wifi; and/or on start of Wifi connection? - Answered, looked at a few images.

Can your application be setup to sync user selected folders on specific WiFi connections, say work, home, etc?

You cannot specify on what wlan connections you sync. Can you tell me why would you like this. As you presently always explicitly press "Sync now" you always make the choice to sync yourself and should know if you are at "work" or "home" when you click that button If I some day make the automatic syncing then this feature would be very handy.

I think what you want is to sync /home/user/.camera into dropbox? Presently (as have said multiple times) there is no upload sync yet. But its coming. Actually this camera thing would be one nice feature too. To sync taken photos upstream into DropBox/DropN900/Photos for example. One good example what would be a upload sync folder only.

If you want your music to dropbox then upload it to there? Then login with dropn900, travel to you music location in the tree view, open setttings, from bottom select your music path to be synced. Click save and from main menu hit Synchronize. Should do it If you want your music automatically from your phone to dropbox youll have to upload them one by one (still no upload sync )
