Работа с MicroStock+ Sync/en

Microstock+ Sync is a software for one-way synchronization between an M+ cloud storage and your PC. As long as synchronization is active, all chosen folders with subfolders will keep downloading on your hard drive and all changes in M+ (i.e. file statuses and metadata) will keep transferring to the saved files.
The sortware is free to use and runs on Windows, Mac OS X and Linux.

Downloading and installing M+ Sync

In the M+ interface click a proper point in the left menu to go to the M+Sync landing page.

How to work with Microstock+ Sync?

Signing in

Launch the program and fill the form with your M+ email and password or sign in with socials. If you don't have an M+ account yet then you should sign up on M+ landing page.

Launching and configuring the M+Sync

During the first program launch you'll have to choose or create the folder as a start point for synchronization process. You can change it later, but this means downloading all synchronizing files again. Once the folder is chosen/created, you'll be able to manage the program using the top menu.

• Click "Account" to log out or go to the store (pricing);
• Click "Settings" to able/disable autorun, change the interface language and set a synchronization interval (in minutes);
• Click "Help" to open a support chat or go to this article (M+ FAQ).

Working with folders

To synchronize any M+ folder with a folder on your PC you have to create a connection between them. In a left column (File tree) choose a folder you want to synchronize, click a green icon with a PC and link chain on it and assign any folder on your PC (or choose/create another folder inside of the start folder). When you synchronize a folder, all subfolders inside of it will be automatically synchronized as well and you don't need creating a connection for them.

To avoid file loss and errors the program don't allow synchronizing two or more M+ folders into one folder on your PC. If you try doing so, you'll receive a notification. In that case you have to create a folder inside of the existing one or select another folder.
To reassign a connected folder click on the connected folder and choose another one as a connected.

To brake a connection between the folders hover your mouse over the icon with a link chain and click it once it turn into a red cross. All synchronized files will remain on your PC.

If you decide to connect same folders back M+ Sync will scan the files and overwrite the changes (and download missing files) and continue the synchronization.
To start a synchronization press a toggle to the right.

A progress bar will appear to the right and in the lower part of the interface. All files will be downloaded to the connected folder. If you're synchronizing a subfolder, all hierarchically superior folders will have a gray progress bar right to them to make sure you won't lose it. Files, file statuses and metadata will be checked and synchronized once each specified synchronization interval.
Two right columns contain basic information about a folder and its content: its weight and the quantity of folders and subfolders inside.

Closing the app

On Windows clicking a cross in a top right corner will hide the program in the taskbar. To close it click "show hidden icons" in the taskbar and right click on M+ Sync icon then choose closing the program. Alternatively, use Alt + F4 shortcut while the program isn't hidden in the taskbar. On Mac OS X use Cmd + Q shortcut or close it in the Dock panel.

Removing the program

Use standard uninstalling tools to remove the program (Windows and Mac OS X) or delete the program folder (Linux).
