Hello, Sync and FolderShare friends. We've been hard at work on the new software, and we're pleased to report that the new Windows Live Sync is now available for Windows and the Mac . We've listened to your feedback, and Sync will continue to offer the same great service as FolderShare, along with several new features: Higher file limits—up to 20 synchronized folders (formerly known as libraries) with up to 20,000 files in each one. Integration with Windows Live ID. Integration with the Recycle Bin for Windows. Unicode support. More languages for Windows (46 in all). And lots of bug fixes.

Sync may be new to some FolderShare users, but don't worry! Sync is designed to make transition easy, although there are a few steps for you to take: Install the software on each of your computers that ...

Hello, FolderShare friends! Thanks for all the great feedback you've sent on our upcoming release. Here are some answers to the more frequently asked questions. Q. When can I download the Sync software? A. Soon. We're still finishing up a few more things. Q. Will the limit remain 10 libraries with 10,000 files per library? A. Nope. The new limit is 20 libraries with 20,000 files per library. That's a lot of files! The library limit is for the combined total of personal and shared libraries.

The Mac and Windows software will be released at the same time. Q. Will Sync have the same features as FolderShare? A. Yes, plus some great new ones: Integration with your Windows Live ID. Integration with your Recycle Bin for Windows. Unicode support. And ...

Dear FolderShare friends, We want to let you know what's next for FolderShare, and to make you aware of some important upcoming changes. In December, we will release a new product called Windows Live Sync. You can think of it as FolderShare 2.0. It's going to look familiar and offer the same great features, plus: More folders and files - sync up to 20 folders with 20,000 files each. Integration with Windows Live ID - no more extra sign-in stuff to remember. Integration with the Recyle Bin - no more separate Trash folder to fiddle with. New client versions for both Windows and Mac. Unicode support - sync files in other languages. A huge part of Sync's success story depends on FolderShare users like you. When Sync releases, FolderShare goes into retirement. That means your FolderShare software will stop working and will ask you to upgrade to Sync. Once you do, Sync will automatically rebuild your personal folders. We expect a lot of new users when Sync is ...

Hi, FolderShare friends. There's a new version of FolderShare for Windows available today that includes several updates designed to improve reliability. We encourage all the awesome FolderShare users to install it at their earliest convenience. These feature improvements work only on the new version, so the old version needs to be removed before the new one is installed. We understand this process may cause some inconvenience, but be assured that your settings and files will remain the same from start to finish. If you have any thoughts about the new improvements, please let us know by posting a comment. Thanks for using FolderShare! —The FolderShare team
