I just wanted to say that the new version (3.04) is quite buggy. When you highlight a folder or file in the drive assigned (J:??); the program starts to download for no good reason. It slows everything down and if you try to cancel this process through the gui….. the whole machine hangs and you have to reboot the whole machine by force.

I say a fully tested release is much better than releasing minor versions one after another. And lets not forget the bugs

Thanks

I am still using 2.10. I have tried updating every time a new version came out, including with the current 3.0.4. It simply never worked, unless i am supposed to wait until I gow a beard while watching the Setup Wizard install.
The status never even starts and i have to kill the process.

What is the best way to upgrade? There is no entry in the online manual about this. do I need to keep JD running, do I need to switch it off first, will it do it automtcially, do I need to switch of other processes as suggested above, do I overwrite existing files/folders, do I need to choose a new folder/name, will i keep my bucket and ack-up settings etc etc etc.

Back to 2.10 now..
Cheers, Harry

I would expect it to deal with it and not expect me to go to task manager and kill exploer to do upgrade

As for reboot I agree I hate it as well (2 laptops, 3 PC and 1 server)

I also have 3 customers I installed it for them and they get crazy from it and want to stop using jungledisk.

First I have to say that I LOVE Jungle Disk! And, like others here, I’m frustrated with having to take the time to reboot my system every time there’s an update. I understand that a reboot is required to replace system drivers, but how about a simple option to “Install at Next Reboot”? Then I could start the update and forget about it, knowing that tomorrow morning it’ll be up to date, and my backups will still happen in the meantime.

Thanks!

The Desktop/Workgroup editions do, because they use a file system driver for the network drive feature. Unfortunately Windows doesn’t provide any way to update filesystem drivers without a reboot.

I maintain 2 servers, 1 home server, 5 laptops, and a development PC for myself and my small (one man) business. I have had to update all of these 3 times. Each time a reboot is required. This has added up to a fair amount of installing and rebooting.

Is there any way to eliminate the need to reboot? I have JD installed on deployed web servers and rebooting is something I try to avoid. I can only reboot during certain hours and it affects my uptime.

Thanks for the great product though!

There is a thread on the support “forums” with a post from JD a week ago stating that an announcement is due “soon”.

I’d like to start a very large backup over the holiday period – will you have an announcement before Christmas?

If I cancel Jungle Disk Plus will I be able to take advantage of the new prices immediately as I’d be uploading straight to the S3 services and be billed by Amazon directly?

Must say I’m very disappointed in the delay this is taking – any particular reason why? I don’t remember previous price updates taking this long.
