[SOLVED] SYNC Pc-money-manager-ex

Post by Emanuel »

SYNC Pc-money-manager-ex (V. 1.9.0) and Android-money-manager-ex (V. 1070 - 2025.02.07)

Dear sirs.

I can't get CLOUD SYNC, I use the common cloud storage provider (Dropbox) on my PC and Android device.

I think it always reads the Database that is on the Android device, and not in the cloud.

Thanking you in advance for your help

Hey @Emanuel

Dropbox should work here, can you share your android os version and app version, also its synchronization settings?

good to see the database locations for both.

can you share the screenshot of 三 -> Settings -> Synchronization

here you go a guideline with NextCloud, Dropbox should be similar.

The sync setting in the first screenshot looks good, and we expect it would sync the data with WI-FI.

In your 2nd screenshot, clicking CONTINUE will focus on downloading the database from the cloud. can you have a try?

The Android Device Database, V. 2025.02.07 (1070) at: (Android/data/com.money.manager.ex.android/files/databases/”file.mmb”)
they don't sync with the Dropbox cloud

As I have stated many times before. It does not work properly with Dropbox and I never got an answer how people configure it where it does work! I like to know what I am doing wrong! My solution, which works just fine is: Export the Android database to Dropbox yourself and open it with the Desktop. So, I do this once a week and that's it. You can do this after every alteration of course! This way the database is never buggered up!

Opening the database in “Other” appears updated.
