3.9 MAS Minor UI Bug: 'Last Wi-Fi synced' not updating

Hi folks,



Found what seems to be a minor Wi-Fi bug, as I seem to be the only one using Wi-Fi to sync.



Here's the deal: I sync my iPad and iPhone via Wi-Fi with 3.9. I go to the Device > (NAME) Sync Status in the App, and I can see when Wi-Fi is available.. and even sync.



BUT: As you can see, even tho' I've just synced, there hasn't been a sync in '7 weeks':

I can confirm this because I added some Secret Note data to 1P on the iPad, and it *did* show up in MAS 3.9.

  • I have been having the same problem myself the only good thing is that as far as I can tell there is no problem syncing actual data.
  • Hey, guys! We are looking into it. Thanks for bringing this to our attention! <img src='http://forum.agilebits.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' />
  • I just updated to Lion and iOS5, installed the new versions of 1password and discovered the same issue.
  • Same here, and Brent: Thanks for an answer that is not the usual „Use dropbox instead“ often heard in these forums.

    Dropbox is more robust in many cases (i.e. works through firewalls, doesn't rely on a local LAN, etc.) and has its benefits, but Wi-Fi sync is absolutely still supported. <img src='http://forum.agilebits.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/skype_smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':-)' />
  • khad: it may be more robust. Dropbox is widely used, yes, but I prefer a sync solution where I can choose where the data is stored (I live in Europe and don't want my data stored on servers in america) and with a software where I choose when my data is encrypted. I prefer my sync software to encrypt the data before sending it to a server.



    Encryption does not concern 1password, as this data is already encrypted on my Mac, but I just don't want to use Dropbox only for my 1password data when I use a different solution for the rest of my data.



    BTW I do have a ~/Dropbox folder for 1password (so the MAS version works for me as well), but I keep this synced across multiple computers with a tool where I have the control.



    And so WIFI sync is important for me and may be for a lot of other people as well.

    Sorry, wasn't trying to argue. I completely understand where you are coming from which is why I just wanted to make it clear that Wi-Fi syncing is still supported. <img src='http://forum.agilebits.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/skype_smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':-)' />



    Cheers,
  • alas not fixed in 3.9.1 <img src='http://forum.agilebits.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/skype_sadsmile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':-(' />

    I'm sorry this did not make it into 3.9.1, but it is still on our radar.
  • did not make it into to 3.9.2 either <img src='http://forum.agilebits.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/skype_sadsmile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':-(' />

    3.9.2 was an urgent update to fix a possible data loss issue. I'm sorry that this was not included in the emergency release, but we didn't move it to our "To Don't" list. I promise! <img src='http://forum.agilebits.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' />
  • and still not fixed in version 3.9.3.

    I hope that you won't drop wifi sync support and try to force users to use dropbox. That would be the point where you wold loose me as a customer.

    I'm advocating on your behalf. I'll nudge the developers on this again. Thankfully this minor display issue doesn't actually affect your data in any way.

    I am sorry about that. A lot of things changed in 3.9 and I still need to rewrite code to fix this issue.
  • Finally works with 3.9.4, but I had to delete my iPhone from the App and read it to start working.

    Thanks for updating the thread to let us know. I'm glad everything is working well. <img src='http://forum.agilebits.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' />
