- FAQ
- ===
- Some files are continuously uploaded to the server, even when they are not modified.
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- It is possible that another program is changing the modification date of the file.
- If the file is uses the ``.eml`` extension, Windows automatically and
- continually changes all files, unless you remove
- ``\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\PropertySystem\PropertyHandlers``
- from the windows registry.
- See http://petersteier.wordpress.com/2011/10/22/windows-indexer-changes-modification-dates-of-eml-files/ for more information.
- Syncing breaks when attempting to sync deeper than 50 sub-directories, but the sync client does not report an error (RC=0)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- The sync client has been intentionally limited to sync no deeper than
- fifty sub-directories, to help prevent memory problems.
- Unfortunately, it, *currently*, does not report an error when this occurs.
- However, a UI notification is planned for a future release of ownCloud.
- I want to move my local sync folder
- -----------------------------------
- The ownCloud desktop client does not provide a way to change the local sync directory.
- However, it can be done, though it is a bit unorthodox.
- Specifically, you have to:
- 1. Remove the existing connection which syncs to the wrong directory
- 2. Add a new connection which syncs to the desired directory
- image:: images/setup/ownCloud-remove_existing_connection.png
- To do so, in the client UI, which you can see above, click the "**Account**" drop-down menu and then click "Remove".
- This will display a "**Confirm Account Removal**" dialog window.
- image:: images/setup/ownCloud-remove_existing_connection_confirmation_dialog.png
- If you're sure, click "**Remove connection**".
- Then, click the Account drop-down menu again, and this time click "**Add new**".
- image:: images/setup/ownCloud-replacement_connection_wizard.png
- This opens the ownCloud Connection Wizard, which you can see above, *but* with an extra option.
- This option provides the ability to either: keep the existing data (synced by the previous connection) or to start a clean sync (erasing the existing data).
- Make your choice and click "**Connect...**".
- This will then step you through the Connection Wizard, just as you did when you setup the previous sync connection, but giving you the opportunity to choose a new sync directory.
