Sync failed, retry later

Post by mar10029 »

Hi,

I'm using MacDive 2.8.4, OS X 10.12.6, using the IOS app version 1.2.0, and IOS 11.0.3.

The sync function seems to have stopped working for me. Always worked fine in the past, using Dropbox. I tried restarting the phone and the laptop, tried disabling and then re-enabling sync on the app. Keep getting the same error message on the iPhone: "Sync failed, retry later"

Any ideas?

Dropbox disabled the old way that apps can talk to it. MacDive was updated to use the new method in the version after the one you are on (1.2.1). So, upgrade to the latest version.

You may see the same message again in 1.2.1+, in which case just disable sync and then re-enable.
