#Msecure backup dropbox android#
I suspect that the problem is that mSecure on the Android tablet and the iPhone does not determine which data set has the newest time stamp and instead simply "assumes" that mobile data is the most current and overwrites the updated data on the PC.
#Msecure backup dropbox Pc#
As with Dropbox sync and mSecure Cloud sync, as soon as the mobile device connected, the updated records on my PC were immediately overwritten with the old data from the mobile device. After I completed the changes (for the umpteenth time as I've been trying to troubleshoot the sync problem for the last four days), I enabled WiFi sync on my PC and confirmed that mSecure recognized the WiFi network connection. With sync disabled, I modified the records on my PC. This is not an ideal solution as my computer is normally on an Ethernet network I had to disconnect the cable from the back of my computer and then connect to my WiFi network before mSecure would connect to either my phone or my tablet for WiFi sync.įor this test, I only worked with records that I want to change from the Login template to some other template. In a nutshell, as a last-ditch effort, I tried WiFi sync with my computer set as the main server. I just made a lengthy post, which has not been "approved" on the following topic:
#Msecure backup dropbox update#
įor the time being, I have disabled sync on all devices and manually updated the records on my tablet and phone to match what's on the PC. This is not a workable long-term solution the reason I use the same password manager on all of my devices is so that I don't have to manually update each device when I add or modify a record. This bug was reported for mSecure5 by a user named Rand two years ago. If I then turn on auto-sync to Dropbox, the problem returns subsequent updates/deletes revert back. If I check the record on my Android tablet and iPhone, the changes are there. If I turn off Dropbox auto-sync, delete the mSecure sync file: Dropbox/Apps/mSecure 5/UserID/data.mssb file, modify or delete a record, and then click the Sync button to manually sync to Dropbox, the problem does not manifest. Again, the record appears to be deleted but when the auto-sync to Dropbox completes, the record is still present. However, I cannot delete the original CBS record or, for that matter, any records I no longer need. If I create a new record for CBS using my new "Entertainment - Streaming" template, it works fine. For example, when I change the template for my password record for CBS from "Login" to a new template named "Entertainment - Streaming," which has two fields: Username and Password, the record appears to change but when the auto-sync to Dropbox completes, the record has reverted back to show the Login as the template.
When I update an existing record to apply a new template, the record appears to update and then quickly reverts back to the original, unchanged record when the auto-sync to Dropbox completes. I do not have mSecure6 open on either of my mobile devices. I am creating new templates and/or modifying the "canned" templates to fit my requirements. I plan to use templates as a method for sorting my records (using the Sort By Template display option).
Using mSecure6 on my Win10 PC, I am attempting to modify my existing mSecure records to change the template from "Login," which I used almost exclusively in mSecure5 to more descriptive new templates to better organize my passwords. I am also using automatic backups, again to Dropbox. I am syncing through DropBox, the sync method I have used successfully since purchasing mSecure Pro. I have mSecure6 on my Win10 computer, Android tablet, and iPhone (day 23 of Premium trial).
