Sync with Dropbox between Android and Windows Desktop

Post by Benvan45 »

Can anyone explain why a new database, created in Windows and saved with Dropbox, seems to be changed or corrupted when opening in Android. I have tried so many ways to understand this, but I can't get it fixed. As soon as I add a transaction in Android and save the mmb in Dropbox and then open MMEX in Windows, it does not show the same as my Android. Same problem when I change something in Windows, it won't show up in Android. How come? Can anyone get it synced properly at the moment? What am I doing wrong? I'ved tried Google Drive and One drive, but all the same.

Hi Benvan45
May I ask you to remove the signature immediately, we do not tolerate links to sex sites, otherwise I will delete your account including posts.

By the way, it would be helpful to know with which MMEX versions these problems with the Dropbox occur.

MMEX versions I have tried today: Windows 1.80 x64 and Android the latest: 2024.08.01.1036.

Really hope there is a simple solution, as I really don't understand at all.

I can't figure out how to get Nextcloud working........it's too difficult for me, so......hope there's another option? Why not Dropbox or Google Drive and One Drive, as it is suggested many times?

Re: signature, I suspect your password has been hacked, please change it.
I have recently noticed several accounts that have been hacked and misused for sex and games links.

I have added categories in Android and they don't appear in Windows, but when I want to add the same category in Windows, it's not possible, as it says that the category already exists. It's terrible.....and I just don't understand when a database is just synced in Dropbox and is completely different in either Android or Windows. Am I the only one with this? :evil:
