sync

I have a home setup comprising a desktop Windows 10 PC with a DS218J NAS. I simply need to know how to set up the NAS in order to have one-way sync of selected files to the NAS, updating only when a file has changed. As a newby, I have spent days trying to get my head around Synology Drive...

Hello, I am used to use Synology Drive from windows, ubuntu and macOS. But I enter a special case today for which I did not really find any helpful hints on the web. I installed a double boot ubuntu/W10 on a computer. I want my remote data to be synced on that computer in a single directory (do...

Hi, I've got a question regarding Shared Folder Sync. I have 2 identical Synology DS1819+ systems running btrfs. My intent is to backup the first unit's files (Wally) to the second (Wally2). The second unit was originally populated as a shared folder sync from the first. Each NAS now has...

Helllo, I use the Cloud Sync package on my 218J to back up one of the NAS folders to Google Drive and have been doing so without problems for quite some time. The folder is call "cloud." Recently, Cloud Sync has started deleting all the files in the cloud folder after they have been stored on...

That's it. Seems simple - I (& colleagues) want to be able to select one or more folders in a local directory, right click and sync TO a selectable folder within a predefined "Team" directory on my NAS. There seem to be a lot of sync & backup apps & tricks but I haven't found this simple - &...

So I have set up one-way sync from my NAS to Google Drive and OneDrive. But I found out that the old folders on the cloud are not removing by Cloud Sync? Source: Synology: RootFolderX Destination: Google Drive/OneDrive: RootFolderX After the sync: Data inside Synology...

Hi all, I'm using the Shared Folder Sync feature to replicate shared folders between 2 NAS devices (shocker!). The problem I'm having is that the permissions on the replicated folders (on the 'target' NAS) are changed or reset after each sync. I want to be able to access / copy data from the...

I use Drive between various computers, iPhones, and iPads to my DS1019+, but I've noticed when setting it up on a new computer (all the different synced folders) it takes days for it finish syncing. This week on my MacBook Pro Drive seemed to lose it's settings so I've had to set up all my...

I am trying to migrate to using an iPad to replace a laptop for personal and debugging problems. One area I have not been able to fix is auto-sync files updated on iPad back to NAS using Drive. Obviously this works fine on laptop (MacOS or Windows) and I know iPadOS does not manage files in the...

I'm using Cloud Sync to sync Onedrive & Onedrive for Business to the NAS inside various non-encrypted folder shares. When I set up the sync tasks I didn't choose the option to encrypt the process. I'm wondering now whether I should have done that. Thoughts please guys...

I'm looking for the most straightforward method to perform one-way sync of about 30TB between a DS3617xs and a DS3018xs (both with Btrfs) on a 10G Local Network. Mostly archived media files with occasional additions - and very rare deletions. We require a (read-only) 'mirror' image of the...

I have a Synology DS418 and a QNAP TS-431P sitting in the same closet plugged into the same router. My goal is for the QNAP to act as a backup for the Synology, in case the controller board fails or the power supply melts, etc. I have a share "Filez" on both, with the same data. When I make...

I'm currently using Cloud Sync to backup some photo directories on my DS218+ to my Google Drive. Been using Cloud Sync for this purpose for a while and it is working as expected. I don't need access to the backed up files other than what I have now, from my Google Drive, from my NAS. Is...

I've completed migrating all content to my new DS218+ from DS212. I had cloud sync to google set up for my photos on the DS212. Ideally there is a way to enable the same sync on the new DS218+ w/out it going nuts and trying to re-copy everything (we're talking >60,000 photos) up to the Google...

Is there a way to synch the Synology Calendar to Google Calendar or Apple Calendar? Why? Amazon Alexa. We use the Synology Calendar for each individual family member and would like to link them to Amazon Alexa. Unfortunately, only Google, Microsoft, Apple and MS Exchange can be linked to...

Hi There! I have a couple of Synology NAS currently and I wondered whether there was a way to sync NAS1 shared folder A to NAS2 shared folder A such that, if NAS1 goes down, NFS (and potentially CIFS, etc) connections from clients would automatically failover to NAS2? I'm aware of Synology...

The check mark, spinning arrows etc. that the Synology Drive sync client applies to files and folders don't appear in LM Cinnamon 19.3, but do for the same files when I boot instead to Ubuntu 18.04 on the same machine. I see this behavior on two completely different machines that both have both...

I would like to get notifications (like hyper backup can do - email and text) about the status of Cloud Sync if something goes wrong? Does anyone know if that is possible? I use Backblaze for cloud backup and for the most part, it is rock solid but sometimes it stops working and I won't know...

Hi all, A few weeks ago I noticed while working on my BitWardenRS installation that something was wrong with the time set on the DSM UI. Not sure since when it started to be out of sync but even though I have the timezone set to the right location it shows 1h less than it actually is (see...
