   I won a refund via PayPal from Eltima Software!

   They refused to refund my purchase of their SyncMate Pro software, which was totally non-functional on my computer, thought they claimed it would be functional. So I initiated a dispute through PayPal, and they were unable to get any response from the company. So they refunded my money. A great victory over fascists everywhere!

   AVOID AT ALL COSTS

   AVOID AT ALL COSTS. NO REFUNDS. NO CUSTOMER SERVICE.

   THE SOFTWARE WAS AN UTTER FAILURE AT ITS SUPPOSED PURPOSE. It mangled my computer to such an extent I had to boot it up from an emergency disk and spend hours picking out the bits of garbage they installed and deleting them.

   In this case, I was trying to sync and transfer music files between a Mac and an Android-based music player. I installed the free version of the software on my Mac, and it only did a limited number of things, none of which were what I wanted it to do. So I paid for the "Expert" edition of the software and installed it. It was a disaster. This "Expert" package installed pieces of itself all over my operating system, without including an uninstall routine.

   The new software immediately upon launch began to play havoc with my machine, turning the monitor on and off in a rapid fashion without pause. When I managed to get that calmed down (though the monitor image was crazily askew), I tried to sync the computer with the music player in all three ways on offer (USB, WiFi, and Bluetooth). IN ALL CASES THE SOFTWARE FAILED to sync the music player and computer. Nothing I tried worked. Just kept getting error messages. When all their garbage was off my computer, it went back to normal operation.

• Helping my parents use my NAS to store their old emails and share across all of their devices?

  Do your parents have a domain, or are they just using the provider's domain? I've set up my 1522+ to backup our mail accounts using MailPlus on the Synology, and IMAPSYC running on my lab server. But it's backup only, not archiving. That technology could be used to get to your desired state, but there's some work involved to make a secure connection from the internet to your Synology possible, sync/archive...

• Seeking Advice on Backing Up Emails from External Email Providers - Not Hosting

  There are two solutions for this 1. Using a tool called imap-sync to sync all your emails (it has a great incremental sync). You can run it periodically via cron 2. Using the same or similar tool and export to a database. Source: 11 months ago
