FileSync provides selectable synchronization of files or folders to networked Macs, external drives, USB flash drives and mounted disk images. FileSync updates recently modified files any “lone” files between Master and Copy locations. A “mirror” option is provided that only updates with the Master’s file structure and moves all “lone” files on the Copy location into the Trash. A progress window shows files updated during synchronization. A handy drawer allows storage for many synchronization lists. FileSync is universal binary.
What’s new:
Version 2.0.7 introduces improvements and a new timer feature. Also, available disk space is measured more accurately than previous releases. Read-only volumes or servers will report “disk is full”. Read-only conditions occur when attempting to synchronize with ftp-mounted servers or volumes without adequate permission. FileSync synchronization is now threaded and cancelable. Synchronization lists are stored in a drawer panel (formerly the servers drawer); selecting one displays its list of Sync items. Each Sync item consists of a Master file or folder, and its related Copy location (enclosing folder). FileSync compares file modification dates and only copies new and most recently modified files between the two locations.
