ThinkSynk - How to setup

from WinCustomize Forums
I'd like to sync some folders on between my laptop and desktop. But how do I go about doing this? I've got ThinkSync up and running on both the computers and I have enabled the remote connection and setup the login details. But I get error messages when I try to set up the job between them. It says the access was denied. I wonder if it's my firewall, but it's set up to ask me when a program tried to access the network and neither of the firewalls on my computer has promted me about that.

Is there any step by step tutorial I can have a look at?

(btw, the status bar on in ThinkSync on both conputers both says "Not Connected")

Did you make sure to setup your "Login Details" and enter your username/password for the remote machine? This can be found under the "Network" tab located in "Setup Job".

If that doesn't resolve your issue, it may be an issue with your firewall. You could try temporarily disabling it to see if that gives results.

Since this product is still in the Alpha phase of development, official documentation is unfortunately not provided.

Thinksync uses port# 5001 for communication by default. However you are able to modify this in the settings. When you open this port on your firewall, are you able to connect?
