Morphy 3 Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 (edited) Hi I've just installed the beta to test on my Lenovo tab 2 and I can't change the sync folder location in settings. I get a Java error in the log as well. eb2f9ce3-27dd-4865-a90a-3f688711fe2a.log Edited July 13, 2016 by Morphy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morphy 3 Posted July 14, 2016 Author Share Posted July 14, 2016 I've just tried the public stable and it's still doing it in that. I just upgraded to premiere to take advantage of sync as I'm going away Saturday. If I can't get it working can I get a refund please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 36992 Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 We're looking into it, thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 36992 Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 I've pushed 2.7.21 to the open beta. Please try that. It should be available within a couple hours. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morphy 3 Posted July 14, 2016 Author Share Posted July 14, 2016 Ok so I can pick a directory now but it doesn't seem to have permissions: Thread-6975] INFO App - Creating parent directory failed: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 36992 Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 In kit Kat there is only one certain directory on the SD cards that the app is going to have access to. Let me see if I can dig that up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution Luke 36992 Posted July 15, 2016 Solution Share Posted July 15, 2016 So in Kitkat, the app's designated folder for SD card storage is /Android/data/com.mb.android (Starting from the root of the SD card). Anything else will throw a permissions error. Of course beginning with Lollipop this all resolved as we're using the newer storage access framework that lets you write anywhere you want. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
