|  Idrive users? Issues with New Release????
Hi folks,
just looking for fellow idrive users ( »www.idrive.com ), wondering if you have upgraded to the new 2.2.0 version and are suffering any issues?
LOL, I am, just wondering if I am alone, or, if as is usual, we in the tech community figured it out some workaround before tech support.
Issues:
Synch reports files as no longer on hard drive when they are (seems to be a special character issue in filename, like an umlaut, doesn't "see" them anymore). This one is downright dangerous.
Half-checked checkboxes are invisible in interface
Impossible to uncheck folder once checked (really).
And a few others, but these are the most important to me.
In contact with support, have sent screen shots, have asked for a download to the prior stable version (my bad, I deleted it) but not gotten it yet. Been going on since, I guess the 16th when they released it. They released a new build on the 23rd, but for me has not resolved anything.
If you did upgrade, did you check how it worked? I would now! LOL!
Thanks!

| I don't have IDrive, but I am thinking about it. Can I use IDrive like an FTP server, in which I can store files for public downloads?
Thanks

Not like that, but for sharing, you might want to look at Logmein Pro instead. You can create links to share from your PC, set number of downloads, expire them, etc. Just no user id or password control.
I liked Idrive a lot until this recent build. Especially the fact that it keeps versions without placing it against your account max.
That said, I hope they resolve these issues, a couple are downright dangerous to have from a data backup perspective.
You get up to 2 GB of a trimmed down idrive for free with them , feel free to play with it and see what you think... but shop around before committing

Clinton, MA | Thanks. I think perhaps I'll be better off with FTP. |
