Cloud: Autorize SkyDrive doesn't work
-
After pressing OK to enable the permissions for PA (Which are a lot, can yo u explain why?)
The form just stays blanco. And none responsive.
-
I guess it took so long to create the filelist.
-
it is hard to understand whats going on :-)
I guess i need to try it out myself.
-
you mean why all the access rules? dunno, thats how it works… it is only your PowerArchiver though, not some web application, but your local PA.
-
so how many files do you have there? was it faster 2nd time? was it non responsive first time? I got nothing inside right now, so i will try to reproduce.
-
Ironically, I was just going to make a post about this.
Skydrive seems from the start go unstable.
The 1st this is the Authorize Dialog hangs once you have logged in and there is now way other that to exit the application via task manager.
Then there seems to be a delay or hang on most of the files and folders.
Attachment Cloud and Dropbox both worked without issue and are quick.

Authorize is an IE window that access’s the SkyDrive website… once you authorize it, it saves the token on your computer… but thats all up to SkyDrive I believe… we will see more about it.

Trying to get Google Drive to work. I clicked on it and it took a minute, opened a window, then asked for email and password.
Entered the info, then the screen updated and wanted me to accept the terms, which I did. It takes a few seconds and then it gives an error unable to load the page.

yeah, i just checked, it is all done via Google pages - it doesnt have anything to do with PA itself - it doesnt go to our site, nor anything is stored on our site… it is all done by google.com and whatever the name of skydrive itself is.
Now I wonder if the problems people are having are due to crappy IE, because it is IE that opens up as it is always installed on the system. But there is nothing we can do about that though.
It does seem that IE11 they have in 8.1 I am using is finally usable… 10 was horrible on my computer, didnt want to load anything properly.

FYI, my 25GB SkyDrive is almost Full.
-
Second time is just as slow.
-
a lot of files - how many files are there and how long it takes? We can at least make it more responsive… i will upload a lot of small files to mine to test
-
we were able to improve the load times for the file list, lets see by how much.
-
ok, so 15s for .20 vs 28s for .18, for logging/loading filelist Skydrive. So abou 2x faster for newer version.
This is for +1000 files or so… we also added some “progress” messages and little bit more responsive, also fixed total upload progress bar.
It is not perfect yet, but it is better.
-
it takes almost 5 minutes…
-
so it will take 1/2 now, at least :P
we could do caching… we will see… (in the future)
-
well this is already 1/2 :)
-
what version are you trying?
-
.20
-
:-)
-
do you have many sub folders?
maybe we could read only main folder and then later cache rest of them…. but otherwise, it is slow due to Skydrive in general… i just checked their options and nothing really too good that we can do, except to only open root folder.
-
i was testing google drive vs SkyDrive… Google has a lot more options for API. And it is a LOT faster off the bat… it is 3-4 seconds for 1000+ files for me, while 14s for SkyDrive for same amount of files.

Can you not write a time out script so if the screen stays for a period of time it then closes the windows?
The problem isn’t with waiting it’s the fact that your stuck andunable to uuse PowerArchiver until it’s finished.
-
10.000 files, 351 folders
-
-
10 folder and 2 files in root
-
ok, so this update is live for everyone (.20)… it is also different from your’s guido… but nothing related to SkyDrive or clouds…
