  • SyncToy 2.1 'unknown error. Access is denied. »

    I just bought a new laptop I want to synchronize with my desktop.

    SyncToy 2.1 is only installed on the desktop.

    Both are equipped with Windows 7 and are the only members of a homegroup.
    The files are accessible in both directions through the homegroup.
    Folder on the left C:\Users\Me\Documents\
    Good record \\TINY\Users\Me\Documents\
    Both machines have all the boxes SHARE the LIBRARIES of PRINTERS AND audited.
    Under CHANGE ADVANCED SHARING SETTINGS both are configured as follows:
    Turn on network discovery
    Open file and printer sharing
    Turn on sharing so anyone with network access can read and write files in public folders
    Use 128-bit encryption to protect file sharing connections
    Turn off password protected sharing
    Allow Windows to manage the homegroup connections
      
    HOWEVER
    When I right click on a folder to share (IE. My Documents) and follow the SHARE WITH menu drop down, no one is to his left, a lock icon
    If I try to change the READ/WRITE permissions to the homegroup it allows me to select, but when I revisit, he returned to PERSON with the padlock icon to its left
    When I run SyncToy 2.1 and ALL RUN the meter end account but each unique number is the column down in red.
    The SyncToy execution completed with errors.
    Read errors: error Error: Unknown. Access is denied. (Exception of HRRESULT: 0x80070005 (E_ACCESSDENIED)) Copy the path C:\Users\me\file
    I have this feeling I'm missing something very basic, but I don't know what it is. Your help will be very appreciated.

    I have experienced the same problem earlier with SyncToy 2.1 running on my Win 7 x 64 Dell e4310 backup bare SATA hard drives via a Kingwin dock via eSATA.

    More funny thing is: SyncToy to backup all the files on my disk WD Caviar 320 GB ("Backup1") without any error. But when I pop my WD Caviar Green 1 TB drive it in ("Backup 2") grates fair 520 failure operations. All with "Exception from HRRESULT: 0x80070005 (E_ACCESSDENIED).

    How I fixed it:

    Shift-right click on SyncToy 2.1(x64) and select 'run as administrator '.

    It worked for me.

  • Error message SyncToy to create new folder pair

    After working for years, SyncToy now gives me the message: «cannot find the Microsoft Sync Framework components required for SyncToy.» Run SyncToy 2.1 Setup from the original location. »

    I uninstalled, re-downloaded, installed again without success. I run Windows XP and keep updated all the updates from Microsoft. About a year ago, I had a hard time installing Microsoft Expression web problems to .NET installed, but that has been resolved. Don't know if it could be related.

  • SyncToy 2.1 - synchronized records are not the same

    I use SyncToy 2.1 on a 32 - bit XP system.  I did a "sync" between a local folder and a folder on a mapped drive.  SyncToy reports no errors, but the 'properties' for each of the files are not identical.  One of the folders has 358 files (local folder), and the other has 359 files (the folder on the mapped drive).  There are also differences in the "size" and "Size on disk" in the Properties window

    Good living, XP

    Please go through the below thread that has the explanation of the creation of .dat files when using SyncToy synchronization that could be one of the reasons why you find more number of files.

  • Planning of SyncToy v2.0

    Hello

    I am planning (automatically run) SyncToy 2.0 to synchronize multiple files from 6 different users with the admin account I already managed to install SyncToy and rotate by hand on the admin account, but now I want to run it automatically on this one here: before you connect with any account before signing out and before stopping.

    I have a Windows-XP Home SP3 and a Windows Vista SP2, with an external hard drive to copy the files to.

    So like this:

    Desktop computer (XP)-

    External hard drive (Z: /)-all connected to my router.

    Laptop (Vista)-

    How can I do this? Because I can not find the option to schedule the task before putting the computer power off or before a disconnect in the Task Scheduler.

    Does anyone know how to use the Task Scheduler with SyncToy v2.0 or do I need to create a batch file (or deal multiples), to run SyncToy v2.0 automatically when:

    -closing
    -signing the
    -signing off
    Two computers work with SyncToy v2.0, and I want to run SyncToy v2.0 on them automatically.

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    This is what offers the SyncToy help file:

    Run a command line SyncToy SyncToy can be run from the command line to provide support for planning or automating folder pair execution. The default command line executable is located in the: 2.0\SyncToyCmd.exe \Program Files\SyncToy [unite_systeme].

    The parameters provided by this command line interface are described below:

    • R - run all pairs of records that are marked as active for run all.
    • R [name] run the pair of folder named (folder that one pair can be specified).

    Usage examples:

    • SyncToyCmd r MyFolderPair
    • SyncToyCmd r

    It is also possible to manage pairs of file from the command line. Folder pairs are managed by SyncToy.exe while planning is done via SyncToyCmd.exe as described above.

    SyncToy does not support multiple copies of SyncToy.exe at the same time. If SyncToy is already running the task bar, and a second instance of SyncToy.exe is launched with or without any command line parameters, it will simply bring the already running instance in the home and no error will be reported.

    SyncToy.exe-associated parameters are described below:

    • d (= left, right =, name =, operation = synchronize |) ECHO | Contribute, [check = yes | no], excluded =, included =) creates a new pair of file with the specified options:

      • left - mandatory, provide an absolute path to left file
      • to the mandatory time - provide an absolute path to the right folder
      • name - required, provide the name of folder pair
      • operation - required, specify the action type for this pair of folder
      • check - optional, specify if the content of the file should be checked for correspondence file, the default is none

  • Scheduler task does SyncToy as expected but Will Run On Demand

    Vista Home Premium (32 bit), SnycToy 2.1

    I tried to implement a daily local sync automated using the Task Scheduler and SyncToy.  I put in place a task in Task Scheduler task instructions of SyncToy.  I am using the command line option (..) (SyncToyCmd.exe option' - R) for all pairs of batch record.  I can run the synchronization to the application successfully, but the scheduled synchronization does not work.

    • The task is enabled.
    • I delivering the option 'run with highest privileges '.
    • There is no set of conditions
    • I am the only user on this computer and I am the administrator.  The computer has a password.

    As time passes, the "next time" recovering the next day, but the Sync does not work and there is no error generated.  It appears as if he had run, but cmd window doesn't pop up (as it does when running on-demand) and files are not synchronized.  Nothing happens.

    A test, I chose to program using the... SyncToy.exe file (without the - R) argument and the Scheduler will be launching the program successfully, but of course, is not sync.

    Any ideas why Task Scheduler is not running the... SyncToyCmd.exe as expected?  Any help would be appreciated.

    Thank you!

  • SyncToy 2.1 suddenly don't synchronize my EFS encrypted files

    I have just upgraded to Windows 7 Ultimate (64 bit) on my laptop and desktop. Until recently, I used Synctoy 2.0 on my laptop to synchronize the files with my office. On my laptop, the files are encrypted using EFS in Windows; While my desktop files are unencrypted. SyncToy has done a great job.

    Last week, I installed synctoy 2.1. Since then, synchronize with my encrypted files does not work I get the error message "unknown error... the specified file could not be encrypted." I have to decrypt my files so that I can sync, and it takes a VERY long time.

    Can anyone help please?

    Hi mbowles198 ,

    Thanks for posting on Microsoft Answers!

    If upgrading from a previous version of SyncToy (e.g. SyncToy 1.4 or SyncToy 2.0), it is * CRITICAL * to make sure that all folder pairs are completely synchronized using the previous version before running SyncToy 2.1 Setup.
    Do not follow this guideline may result in unexpected behavior and a partial loss of data when you run SyncToy 2.1 for the first time after the upgrade. All folder pairs must also be fully synchronized at least once just once the update is done.

    You can install 2.0 Sycntoy synchronize the folders again after that, you can switch to Synctoy 2.1.

    The article below explains more on this subject:

  • Uninstall software update Apple says error in seller contact package package unstaller

    Try to get itunes working to make a backup of my faulty iphone before repair.

    First-itunes does not start says error. I'm trying to fix it, who said success but same error when you try to start it.

    Then uninstall completely worked. Then reinstall that seemed to be over except for a message "an older version of Apple software update already exists" then he went down and install itunes apparently had not been completed.

    Then I try to remove the update from the apple software and executed by an error in the installation program - it says there is an error in the installation and contact the supplier of the installation package. Same error if I run the uninstall command line program.

    Try to repair the Apple Software Update of programs & features Control Panel and then try to update iTunes again.

    For general advice, see troubleshooting problems with iTunes for Windows updates.

    The steps described in the second case are a guide to remove everything related to iTunes and then rebuild what is often a good starting point, unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach.

    Review the other boxes and other support documents list to the bottom of the page, in case one of them applies.

    The more information box has direct links with the current and recent if you have problems to download, must revert to an older version or want to try the version of iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) as a workaround for problems with installation or operation, or compatibility with third-party software.

    Backups of your library and device should be affected by these measures but there are links to backup and recovery advice there.

  • An error in this Applescript that I can't understand

    Hi, I searched some forums and found this script below which I modified. It works great except for a single statement:

    runScript If = 1 then number error -128 I want the script to do is, when a USB drive is mounted and is in the ignoredVolumes as "USB Untitled" I want the script to stop. What I can't understand is, runScript is set to 1, "Untitled USB" Monte, runScript is not changed, why don't the script stops with an error "user cancelled"? On the other hand, if a key USB Monte is not in the ignoredVolumes, runScript is set to 2 and copy the file I want it. What hurts? It's probably something that will be very obvious when I see the answer.

    Thanks for any help with this problem,

    Mike.

    end Repeat

              end say

    The way in which your external block If is currently based, the script can't do anything when this book is in the ignoredVolumes, it can not yet test the runScript value. Try something like this:

    If the present book is in the ignoredVolumes then

    game runScript to 1

    on the other

    if (the present book as text is not '. ') DS_Store') then

    if there are alias (POSIX (' / Volumes / "& the present book) as text file ) then game runScript to 2

    end if

    end if


    Of course, you need to remove a "end if' the end of the script.
