I'm simply offering my opinion that DB Folders is a much more 'seamless' experience that avoids direct connection issues and allows the DB Client to handle the syncing... But it's up to you...</p>

why the direct is not working any longer. It's the most direct and hassle<br>
free method, but if it's broken or not supported they ought to get rid of<br>
it.</p></div>Kevin Ctag:infinitekind.tenderapp.com,2009-01-14:Comment/553922222022-08-23T15:30:38Z2022-08-23T15:30:38ZSyncing with DropBox is Failing<div><p>It is supported. But local dodgy wifi connections, or slow speeds will give rise to issues. That’s all. Some people never have a problem, others do.</p></div>Stuart Beesley (Mr Toolbox)tag:infinitekind.tenderapp.com,2009-01-14:Comment/553922222022-08-23T17:09:23Z2022-08-23T17:09:23ZSyncing with DropBox is Failing<div><p>OK, I installed DropBox on my PC and disabled syncing in MoneyDance, then reset it up using DropBox Folder. It seems to be syncing to DropBox now. I see the .moneydancesync folder in my DropBox folder and in DropBox when I go to it on the web. And it has files in it in both places with date and time uptodate. However when I clear out my mobile app setting and the data and cache on my phone and relink to DropBox and give it approval to connect it tell me there are no folders found.</p></div>Kevin Ctag:infinitekind.tenderapp.com,2009-01-14:Comment/553922222022-08-23T17:57:03Z2022-08-23T17:57:03ZSyncing with DropBox is Failing<div><p>Same dropbox account on all devices?<br>
If you login to the account on the web you should see a hidden .moneydancesync folder with one looooong number subfolder in it.. This should be the same folder on all devices....</p></div>Stuart Beesley (Mr Toolbox)tag:infinitekind.tenderapp.com,2009-01-14:Comment/553922222022-08-23T18:12:13Z2022-08-23T18:12:13ZSyncing with DropBox is Failing<div><p>From: sprimost...just a user</p>
<p>I had a hard time dropping and re starting sync. The secret, I suppose, is<br>
to disable sync, the stop and start MD. I'm my case, the app refused to<br>
recognize the sync files in the .moneydance folder. Not saying it might be<br>
your solution but worth a shot.</p></div>sprimosttag:infinitekind.tenderapp.com,2009-01-14:Comment/553922222022-08-23T18:19:30Z2022-08-23T18:19:30ZSyncing with DropBox is Failing<div><p>I've done that. I think it's something to do with my wi-fi connection. My<br>
phone is working now. I had to turn 9ff wi-fi and connect using my Mobil<br>
cellular data. Then the mobile app found the file and sync started working.<br>
Now I reconnected it to my wi-fi and it's working fine.</p>
<p>My tablet still won't sync. I don't have a cell data 0lan with that so I<br>
can't disconnect from my router. In the past it took a day before my<br>
tablet would see the sync file</p></div>Kevin Ctag:infinitekind.tenderapp.com,2009-01-14:Comment/553922222022-08-24T13:47:36Z2022-08-24T13:47:36ZSyncing with DropBox is Failing<div><p>I rebooted my HughesNet satellite modem and my tablet was able to see the new MoneyDance sync file and sync correctly. Now both my phone and tablet seem to sync correctly again.</p></div>Kevin C
