Hello Ernie ;
Sync has issues. I have tried both your app Sync (sycn location = appserver) with two options a) store media on = dropbox, b) store media on= app server.
Im using an android phone and all my latest version decks are in it. So in this test my aim is to upload decks from my android phone (by app Sync) and then download them from my ipod (again by app Sync) in order to see they are all OK.
both has issues (I use android) .
a) store media on = dropbox => ithas upload the card data to server but coulndt upload photos (probably totaly) to dropbox , I checked dropbox it created a folder by the name of the deck AND there is media in it, but on the upp gave this error (ı checked the dropbox connectivity its connected I even logged out logged in and tried again but the same error) .
- a) store media on = dropbox -- app error

b) store media on= app server, => I changed the option to full app server (including media) and I tried to SYNC 1 deck of 799 cards (All have media) (1)
but when It started the SYNC in the bottom line, it said media of 766 (actually there 799 cards (All have media)) but the SYNC chose to upload 766 of them, 30 missing (2) , then when the SYNC finished I tried to download from my ipad (3), this time it started to download only 296 media (3), and when SYNC finished I checked the deck's card list. yes there are a lot of missing card files.
so its like this 799 cards (All have media) ==> says 766 upload ==> downloads 296 media.
- a) store media on = dropbox -- app error

Other than this test, In my previous %100 UPLOAD DECK TO APP SERVER, AND DOWNLOAD FROM APP SERVER by DECK CODE , after download app used to show a media download report after downloads something like this (lets say 900 cards and each have media) it says : 880 succesfull, 20 couldnt download, retry ? Or Ok ?,, (even if I tried it coulnd download this very 20(missing media) somehow so I used to say OK!!! .So this was not comfortable too. I used to add this 20 cards one by one or just ignore them.
I came to me that is about the lenght of the media file name!, this can be the problem. Some times they are too long.I usually use my phone to add photos to my cards. Forexample I have 100 cards of a deck, while I studying it, I go 1 by 1 for each card I google the word search a photo , download it to my phone, and then attach it to card, when I attach I had never had an error. But it seems that some of those google images photos they have very long file names. App doesnt give an error while attaching but it can have issues while SYNC. this can be about both file name lenght and characthers in file name.
I would appreciate you solve both. I never prepare photos on computer I dont have such a time so it should accept and SYNC, whatever the file name (in means of lenght and characters), because I do no edits of file name and I can not.
