Guys,

If you want to sign up for SugarSync and get 5 GIGS of free storage then

Signup for Sugarsync HERE (https://www.sugarsync.com/referral?rf=ojjkiyhcsvhr)..

Also, by using this link you will get an extra 500 megs storage and not just 5 gigs !!!..

You will then be able to get invited to share files that we all have access to...

Much better than Dropbox as you only start with 2 gigs there with SugarSync you will start with 5.5 GIGS if you use the link above !...

OK so being somewhat of a techno numpty, Mark you know this to be true;) What files are there, what can we use them for and most importantly is it difficult? :)

You just install it and you can then use it for backing your own files and /or sharing and exchanging files with others or yourself if you happen to run more than one PC. One use would be to store pdf version of manuals for your car on it and then when away from home, assuming you have access to a PC, you have access to your manuals.

To share a file, you just set up a link to the file and pass the link to anyone else who might need it.

Assuming no one reduces the size of the files by removing Eastern European and or other countries i.e. Germany :shrug: and/or removing lots of lines from the sys.text file.

Well once it's up there in someone's folder, it can be made read only so others can sync it but not change anything !

Yes, I know but unfortunately the files that appeared in my Sugarsync folder were already missing Eastern Europe etc. and had a cut down version of the sys.txt file.

I concur with Harry's post No. 100 in the 'New Improved Primo 1.2' thread re starting off with a full version. Then those of us that want/require the full version can mark the folder's as read only so that thay don't (accidentally) get changed by someone else.

I was asking that whoever had the full complete set of te Primo files should put them on Sugarsync for everyone to download. If the help files are absent, maybe someone could track down copies and these could be added to the above complete version?

MARKUK mentioned free storage. Have you watched the video, it mentions at the end "free for 30 days" what will the charge be after that?

If you just choose the 5gig package, it's FREE !...

But if you go for the larger package, it is free for 30 days, then you pay a monthly fee.

So choose the free 5 gigs. !!

I have had the free Sugarsync on my system for around 9 months - still free and working. I have added a bit more free space by a refferal.

I have not used it much in that time, but it seems their system notices when you do use it and emails you to encourage you to purchase space.

I have had a 50% off offer through this week, which for what you get is reasonable good...

This is the way it's going these days..the new Laptop from Google has NO internal storage...It's all "Cloud" based storage such as SugarSync is..

I am up to about 8 gigs now with doing all the little extra bits that you can do and a few referrals...
