Maybe this Information helps to prevent Dataloss or helps the Dev-Team with Bug-Hunting. I only had Problems with a synced Synology Drive Folder… As soon as i save it in a not synched Desktop Folder, everything works fine.I did not test the “Save” Menu entry, but i assume it uses the same Method.Sometimes it does not work, when i use the “Save” Button in the Top Iconbar.It always works, when I use the “Save As” Function from the Menu.There are no further Questions or Popups. When opening this empty File, the Software asks only once, if i want to use the Backup, which is empty, too.Suddenly, the Filesize was ~20kb, and an empty File opened the next time.As work went on, i saved with the “Disk”- Button in the Iconbar.When saving my Work with “save as” for the first time, the savefile has about 260kb.Lightburn 1.0.06 saved empty ~20kb Files twice now and destroyed a huge amount of work, so I did some investigation. Mark Ealey suggested this video on setting up the connection and making it persistent.Maybe i did something wrong, but i had the same Problem like described in this closed Topic:Įmpty or defect files since update on 1.0 - LightBurn Software - LightBurn Software Forum For users that are not as familiar with the drive mapping process, you can set this method as default. That’s native to the OS and, as long as the connection has been previously connected with correct credentials in keychain, it will work as long as on the same network. You can also set up a SMB/AFP mounted drive in the user start up items. Then make it an app in Script Editor and then add it to your login items in System Preferences/Users & Groups:Įach time you login, this will run and mount each drive in the list. You can write a script in Apple Script Editor. Below you can see 3 different solutions for Synology mapped drives that keep disconnecting. Mac OS: My home is an Apple-free zone so this section uses solutions suggested by others. The label is not as meaningful, but it works. These problems disappeared when I mapped the drive using the LAN IP address instead. Windows: I had recurring problems with broken connections when I mapped the drive using the server name. If you have a local storage space, it’s better if you use Synology Drive instead of a mapped drive. For example, if you sync 1TB of data with the number of versions set to default, you will use up a lot more disc space. Note: When you set up the Drive syncs, make sure you reduce the number of versions held by the server. You can sync to your private folders or to team folders that are shared with others, and remote users around the world. Synology Drive enables you to keep versions of a file – which is useful if you need to roll back to an earlier version. If you don’t have an Internet connection, you can work on a local copy and Synology Drive will sync when a connection is available. Synology Drive works over QuickConnect so all you need is an Internet connection. Unless you set up a VPN, then remote access to a mapped drive is not possible. Some will accept one for a while, then stop working and require the other. Some PCs will map using the server name, while others require the LAN IP address. The connection to the server is more stable than the connection to a mapped drive, with none of the issues that arise between Mac OS / Windows and the network protocols which cause connections to suddenly fail.Synology Drive then syncs the local file to the network as a background task, while you get on with other work.You access files on a local drive instead of a slower network drive.Synology Drive is superior to a mapped drive for a number of reasons: All of these products provide a mirrored set of folders between your computer and the cloud, except that Synology Drive syncs to the private cloud on your DiskStation. If you have used Microsoft One Drive, Google Drive or Dropbox before, then Synology Drive will be familiar territory for you. You can find Synology Drive in the Synology Package Center. The alternative solution is Synology Drive. This solution should work for you, unless your computer has limited local storage space (in which case the only way to access network folders is a mapped drive). There are fixes for these issues, but I’d like to propose another approach which uses a completely different protocol and achieves a superior result, in my opinion. Issues with disconnected drives are a common theme with Synology, as reported by users online, regardless of which operating system is being used.
