WebDAV Server Pro

Hello!

I'm presently working on setting up Direct Sync via WebDav Server Pro as the cable USB connection with my Samsung Galaxy S3 doesn't work.

I'm working on a MACBOOK Pro with Retina display and I have Windows 7 installed on a separate partition on my MAC.

I installed WebDab Server Pro on my Samsung Galaxy S3 without problems. It connected to my wireless network with the address http://192.168.1.105:8080

In windows when I choose Start, Open, Map Network Drive and choose drive: Z which is what came up as default and type on the line for Folder http://192.168.1.105:8080 and click Finish they cannot find each other. Separately they can find the network and it works fine. I've repeated the above a few times with the same disappointing result, so there are no spelling mistakes. The Error code in Windows is â0x80070043 The network name cannot be foundâ

Any idea what can be wrong?

Many thanks for your help

Are you using a password in WebDAV Server? For some reason that will not connect. Use guest, no password.

I'm not sure whether what I'm about to describe explains your problem, but when I was starting to use WebDAV to sync P/D to my Nexus 7's P/A, the first time it worked fine. The second time, however, DirectSync reported "sync device not connected/file not found." I finally realized that my wireless network had assigned a different number to my tablet this time than it had the first time. I went into P/D's Preferences, and under "System Items rarely changed" I found the Preference "LocalSyncDevice." It had the path I had used the first time, but now the path included a different final number before the @8080 part. When I changed that number (in my case, from 103 to 104), saved the Preferences, and tried again, all was well.

I've found that, depending on how many other computers or other devices are using the wireless network, the number assigned to my Nexus 7 can vary from 101 through 104. I have to remember to change that number in the P/D Preferences when what's assigned doesn't match what the Preferences say.

I've also established four separate listings under Computer on the desktop to allow me to transfer files between the Nexus 7 and my desktop computer (Win 7 64-bit) using WebDAV. Works very well now that I realize that I have to pay attention to the number in the path.

None of this may be relevant to your situation, but I'm posting this just in case.

Thanks for your replay but as you said yourself I haven't got that far. I
can't establish the contact between Android and Windows.

There should be a setting on your router that will allow you to assign
the same IP address to your Nexus 7 every time you connect to your
wireless network.

Presuming that you've got administrative access to your router look for
options under "LAN" or "DHCP server", or possibly "Home Network".

I think? all recent Android versions now have that option in the WiFi
'extended options' where you can specify DHCP or an ip address of choice

my N7 had this out of the box, Xoom with 3rd party A4.2 also has that

They should, however, if you set your Android phone - on the phone - to
use IP address 192.168.1.12, and your router is configured to allocate
IP addresses from 192.168.1.10 to 192.168.1.100 to anything joining the
network... I *think* the third device joining your network will be given
192.168.1.12 - which will clash with your phone - and bad things will
happen.

That's what would happen on an enterprise LAN, however... I don't know
if the DHCP servers on home routers are smarter than that and will look
for devices on the network using pre-configured IP addresses and
therefore avoid handing those IP addresses out.

Thanks, Nick Drage and voytekeymont, for the information about getting a stable IP address for my Nexus 7 tablet on my wireless network. However, now that I am aware of the occasional changes in IP number, it's easy to deal with them, and I'd rather do that than mess around with my network and possibly run into conflicts.

You've probably checked this already, but have you permitted access for your phone onto your router's service ? If you have a secured wifi setup (preferably with WPA2 at least), only devices which you have added to the MAC address filtering feature can access the system (this prevents drive-by {or park nearby} access to your system by strangers). That will have nothing to do with features of the phone or the computer system, as the router is independent of both.

My wireless network is secured with WPA2. As my phone has an IP address
within my network - shouldn't it automaticaly be accepted by my router?
Where in the menu system of the Router would I find information about
this?

One more thing to look into when I return home.

On my Belkin router, having put in my administrator's password, I can access "MAC address filtering" in the "Firewall" section. Once WPA2 is operating, anything I want to connect to my wifi network *must* have its MAC address listed on that page, or it won't be allowed through the firewall. It's a bit of a nuisance when you have visitors who wish to access your wifi, but better than having the rest of the world downloading their porn through your system (and you getting the blame).
It's useful to keep a log of which ID number applies to which device, as their MAC addresses are indecipherable, and you may well want to replace (eg) a faulty wifi printer, which will mean replacing its assigned MAC address with that of the new one.

I should have said that it doesn't necessarily happen automatically (definitely not on mine) , otherwise anything might be able to log itself into your system without your consent. I can't be confident that other systems won't do it automatically, but it would seem to me to defeat the object of WPA2 if things could connect without you explicitly saying they could. I'm assuming that mine being a Belkin router, which has fairly widespread availability, it isn't that different from most others on the market.

This is usually not a default setup but one you would have had to explicitly set-up, at least in my experience. I have wpa2, but I won't go this far for security, personally. Doesn't fit the balance of security and convenience I strike. YMMV. If someone can sit in front of my house and crack my wpa2 credentials and download porn, more power to them. It's not that I think they can't, it's that I'm only willing to arrange my life so far to stop them.

So far I've gotten away with it. ;-)

Same as John W. here - I have WPA2 and Apple Airport Extreme and Express routers, and my Android devices and Mac and virtual Windows communicate/sync just by my inputting the WPA2 passcode in the device wifi setup. No additional firewall input needed.

That is quite bizarre if you mean what it appears you do - your wifi is off, you connect S# to pc with a usb cable, and it mounts as a fully fledged peripheral hard drive (mass storage drive) with full direct read-write file transfer capability, not as an MTP/PTP copy-paste transfer device??? I assume that if that is what you are seeing it is with reference to your removable sd card file system as usb mass storage is definitely not enabled for the internal storage under 4.3 (nor 4.4).

With regard to " can "adb devices" command work for wi-fi?"

no. "adb devices" is a command that requires 1)an Android device that has an unlicked bootloader, 2) a direct cable connection to pc, 3) the Android Software Developer Kit (SDK) or at least the platform-tools component of the SDK which contains the adb application installed, and 4) the command line terminal of the pc.
I don't have time to do a tutorial on adb and fastboot, but there's plenty of info on the web.

Hi, guys,

for some strange reason, all of sudden, today, i can mount it as a USB
drive (via cable, not Wi-Fi) again after months of unable to mount it
(even as a MTP drive so i thought the USB port was busted)

Win 7 Ultimate SP1
WebDAV Pro
Samsung Galaxy S3 (not rooted)

the only difference is yesterday, Verizon/Samsung decided to upgrade the
Android OS to v.4.3

(it comes with quite a few of junkwares by google & verizon & Samsung. but later)

can "adb devices" command work for wi-fi? (i dont' really know)

i see it using "adb devices" (via USB) all of sudden
yesterday. (as i mentioned, after 2 or 3 months, "adb devices"
showed nothing & will not mount via MTP/PTP)<br>
<br>
are you saying that Android OS 4.3 does not allow mounting SD
as a local drive?<br>
<br>
(the only i did after upgrading to 4.3 is i did uninstall +
"turn off" all ad-nauseum junk-wares by Google & Samsung,
it seems with ea. update, they put in more & more junk
that i don't need. so i'll try to root it (<finger

I can't be sure, what you report is rather confusing, but I think you have several things mixed up perhaps. First, usb cable connected usb mass storage doesn't use a url at all afaik. That url you wrote, "http://127.0.0.1.88080 ", looks suspiciously like a WebDAV server address, except usually it would end in :8080. Turn off your device wifi in system settings and then connect to your pc by cable and see if this still happens.
Second, "adb devices" is not a thing nor a drive, it is an instruction that is given to an Android device that is connected to a pc (or Mac) using a command line terminal by way of a developer tool application named "adb" for Android Debug Bridge. The command dab devices says check to see if an Android device is hooked up and let me know. In order to do this you have to have at least a part of the Android Software Developer Kit installed on your pc, and you have to have access to "developer tools" on your S3 and use it to turn on "usb debugging", and you have to use the command line terminal of the pc (you do not have to have your device boot loader unlocked as I erroneously stated in the last post. At the end of this ar several links that explain some of this in detail.
It makes no sense to me that you "see it using "adb devices" (via USB) all of sudden yesterday". Exactly what do you mean by "see it using"?? Again, adb devices is not a thing, it is an instruction. Very confusing.

Hi, John
ok thanks.

yes, it can mount as an local drive (http://127.0.0.1.88080 --- i call it "A") via USB cable all of a sudden. i have never tried wi-fi.

i see it using "adb devices" (via USB) all of sudden yesterday. (as i mentioned, after 2 or 3 months, "adb devices" showed nothing & will not mount via MTP/PTP)

are you saying that Android OS 4.3 does not allow mounting SD as a local drive?

(the only i did after upgrading to 4.3 is i did uninstall + "turn off" all ad-nauseum junk-wares by Google & Samsung, it seems with ea. update, they put in more & more junk that i don't need. so i'll try to root it (<finger crossed> as i'm only a literate user (layman).

regards,

pam

no. "adb devices" is a command that requires 1)an Android device that has an unlocked bootloader, 2) a direct cable connection to pc, 3) the Android Software Developer Kit (SDK) or at least the platform-tools component of the SDK which contains the adb application installed, and 4) the command line terminal of the pc.
I don't have time to do a tutorial on adb and fastboot, but there's plenty of info on the web.

OK, what you just posted,

- wi-fi "has to be on" (just means that WebDav told me it does not like it off)
- phone is plugged in USB
- http://127.0.0:8080 (mounted as drive A)

explains it all I think. You have two things happening at once, but they are *not related* ("true, true, and unrelated")! Having the phone plugged in to usb has nothing to do with your phone being mounted as drive A, that is happening via wifi via WebDAV. You have your device mapped to Windows as a network drive by wifi WebDAV. I guarantee (I hope) that if you first turn off your WebDAV app and your device wifi and *then* plug in the usb cable between device and pc you will not see your device mount as drive A. It may be that when you plug in usb your windows now recognizes your device as an MTP/PTP device, but that is a totally different thing from either having it mount as a network drive under WebDAV, and different from having it mount by the old usb mass storage in which Windows considers the device to be the same as a flash drive and is no longer available on OS 4.x devices without significant hacking (rooting plus other things). No can do. If with wifi and WebDAV off you still see it mount as drive A something extremely weird is happening.
In the meantime, the "adb devices" you report seeing is still unexplained. Please describe exactly how, when, and where that appears, it is very strange.

One further comment on this. WebDAV Server (free or Pro) does have a feature whereby you can connect your device via WebDAV Server with usb cable rather than wifi. The process to do this is explained on the Google Play WebDAV Server page in "details". I have tried this in the past, and it does work, *but* it requires that you have the Android SDK on your computer and (know how to ) use the command line terminal and platform-tools/adb, and it is a one-time-only mapping, i.e. you have to do the entire command line connection process every time you want to connect, unlike the wifi method. Unless you have been doing this and just not saying so (I really doubt that <g>) it does not explain what you are reporting seeing nor does it explain where that "adb devices" is coming from. It would not just happen automatically when you plug in by usb cable.

Hi, John,

sorry, i'm not very good @ this. (i'm a technical person but my
background is NOT computer/IT. so this is all very confusing to me.

0. CESD suggested that i tried WebDAB (/Pro) by Olive Tree.

1. followed the instructions (including downloading SDK) . (wi-fi = on &
usb : connected)

2. so this is why the "adk devices" can see the device.

3. saved all commands in a batch file. so you can click on the short
cut or just type the .bat name.

4. http://127.0.0.1:8080 --> home directory: /storage/emulaterd/0 on the
WebDAV

5. i don't have an SD card.

6. so yes, this is what i have been doing cause i dont' know how to do
it any other way. the instructions for Android/google/SDK are in want
(scanty & scattered) for laymen.
so i figured out it once then forget completely about it.

regards,

pam

Oh good heavens! That explains it all. You must be one of a *very* few using WebDAV Server by usb/command line/adb rather than by wifi. It never occurred to me from your initial post that that might be the case, as 99.999% of those who post here about WebDAV Server are doing it by wifi. So, case closed, *except*, the way you say you are doing it does not require wifi at all, it all happens over the cable - so, I don't understand why WebDAV would be telling you to connect wifi. ?? Just for my interest would you take a look in the WebDAV Server app's settings, network interface, and see whether it is "Loopback (127.0.0.1)", or "WIFI" that is selected?

Hi, John,

sorry, i'm not very good @ this. (i'm a technical person but my
background is NOT computer/IT. so this is all very confusing to me.

0. CESD suggested that i tried WebDAB (/Pro) by Olive Tree.

1. followed the instructions (including downloading SDK) . (wi-fi = on &
usb : connected)

2. so this is why the "adk devices" can see the device.

3. saved all commands in a batch file. so you can click on the short
cut or just type the .bat name.

4. http://127.0.0.1:8080 --> home directory: /storage/emulaterd/0 on the
WebDAV

5. i don't have an SD card.

6. so yes, this is what i have been doing cause i dont' know how to do
it any other way. the instructions for Android/google/SDK are in want
(scanty & scattered) for laymen.
so i figured out it once then forget completely about it.

regards,

pam

Hi, John,

this is the part i don't understand ---

WebDAV would not work without wi-fi (despite being connected via USB &
my desktop is connected on a wired-network)
that's why i said "wi-fi has to be on"

yes, i have "loopback (127.0.0.1)" checked on WebDAV (as per the on-line

if i check wifi, a different address is assigned (http://192:168.2.86:8080).
(i use wi-fi for my laptop & Nexus & Kindle)

thanks.

Pam-

I don't understand it either. Particularly since the WebDAV Server info for usb starts with,
"How to connect with WebDAV server using USB cable:
This can useful when you have USB cable and no network available. "
"...no network available" would imply to me no wifi. ?? It doesn't seem needed for license check since the free version has the same capability.
Oh well, it's working for you which is what matters, "if it ain't broke, don't fix it".

Some follow-up on the WebDAV Server (WDS) by usb cable issue -
pam (and everybody else),
I continued to be troubled by why WDS requires pam to be connected to a wifi network for a process that should only require a usb cable connection. So I ran the process, exactly as described on the WDS page on GooglePlay, using my Nexus 4, AOS 4.2.2, WDS v1.12, and my MacBook Pro command line terminal running the current ASDK adb. First I turned of my wifi network, there was no wifi connection of Nexus to Mac whatsoever. Then ran the usb cable WDS process. It worked perfectly, Nexus internal sd file system mounted to Mac as a server just fine, and there was no request to turn on wifi. I.e. it ran as I expected it should.
I don't know why pam's system is asking for wifi, but there are a number of differences with my system including different Android device, different computer, and I ran the dab command line manually whereas pam has it automated.
The reason I've pursued this and think it is significant is that knowing that this can work with *only* a cable (plus Android SDK and command line terminal) means that direct sync should be possible with a cable under OS4.x in the absence of a wifi network. I have not done that yet but will do so and report back again.

addendum, typo correction - the &*&%%##$$# Yahoo so-called spell checker insists on changing "adb" to "dab". The line that says "and I ran the dab command line manually " should be the adb command line.

Hi, John<br>
<br>
just to add few more data points for you!<br>
<br>
strange things happened today. <br>
<br>
1. i tried the wi-fi way @ work (my work PC runs on Win 7)<br>
<br>
(didn't try it before as our Gestapo Nazi Department (IT) is
controlling & a little paranoid.)<br>
<br>
<br>
SGS3 + WebDav Pro : connected as <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://10.20.18.191:8080">http://10.20.18.191:8080</a><br>
<br>
N7 + WebDav : connected as <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://10.20.12.181:8080">http://10.20.12.181:8080</a><br>
<br>
so both work.<br>
<br>
<br>
2. i'm able to mount SGS3 phone using USB only (no wi-fi) @ my home
desktop (Win7). this time WDP did not ask me turning on wi-fi.<br>
<br>
(like i mentioned, i have wi-fi @ home. but it's connected to my
desktop. my home deskop is on a wired-network; i could try to turn
the router wi-fi on to make it wi-fi)<br>
<br>
the only difference is i could think of is after using SGS3 phone
via wi-fi. i turned WDS off & go to the setting menu, cycle thru
the choices of "network interface" <br>
<br>
maybe next time, just do that to jog WebDAV a bit? <scratching
head><br>
<br>
regards<br>
<br>

OK, good. In the meantime I did direct sync my Nexus5 with P/D on virtual machine Win7 using usb cable WebDAV Server Pro with wifi off with no trouble, once I updated SDK platform-tools to api 19 so it would recognize an AOS 4.4 device. So with your last response and this I think were done...

Something about that seems logical but not accurate ! When you get the dialogue with a both for drive assignment (Z:") and the address IGNORE it, and go to "Browse". Then click on the line below which says "Connect to web ..." : "Next"; "Choose a custom network location" and put your http://192 etc in there, following subsequent instructions. (I seem to recall John Markley pointing me in the right direction for this, some time ago (credit where it's due !).
Previous reply also does happen occasionally, where the system re-allocates the final number of the 192.168. sequence, and it may need to be changed as described.

Unless there is something different about doing it on a Mac, Gunnar is doing it the way I do it on Windows and it should work. I always change the Z: to X:. I don't know why, probably just superstitious ritual. I can't believe that would make a difference. Not sure why Gunnar isn't connecting. Is there maybe a firewall issue?

Yes, the way Gunnar reported is correct. I'm going to reread his post and see if I can figure it out. The way ***@Galena just posted is for some of the other apps that use the webDAV protocol, but not for WebDAVServer Pro.

Oddly enough I've been using the Olive Tree software WebDAV Server Pro (v 1.12) with my Windows 7 machine linking to HTC oneX with Android 4.2.2 (P/D 2.1.10, and P/A v.2.1.22) since John recommended it ages ago.
I do seem to recall that, when I did it straight into the address box below the drive letter, it consistently failed to connect, and so I went back through the instructions more carefully (! Englishman = one for whom "if all else fails, read the instructions" applies) and has it worked for me ever since.

Interesting. My apologies for doubting you. The instructions to just put the url that WebDAV Server provides directly into the "Folder" field and click finish are correct. I don't know, can't remember, what the issue was that required you to use browse, which I think would only work if you already had mapped that url.??
I am about to put into the files section of the forum a folder that has screenshots of what the mapping process should look like.

I just want to add two pieces of information/clarification to this discussion. One is that, like several other people, the network path I put into WebDave Server Pro when I set it up and which WebDAV uses begins 192.168. Also, I had communicated with CESD by email about problems I was having, and he told me that I should ignore everything on the page that says Drive: Z and Folder: [blank] and just choose the link "Connect to a website you can use to store your documents and pictures. Click on Next in Add Network Location. Then click on Next in Where do you want to create this location? (make sure that Choose a Custom Network Location is selected--usually it's the only option). In the next screen, type in the full URL that the WebDAV Server shows (the one that for me is often http://192.168.1.103:8080). I mention all this because I think some people were putting a folder or path in to Drive or Folder, whereas CESD told me to simply choose "Connect to a website...."

I hope some of this proves helpful.

Hello everybody,

Thanks for all your replies.

I've gone through all my settings again. Yes I have chosen WiFi. Yes the port is :8080. The first part of the url just reflect the fact that my router bought in Europe (Sweden) was preinstalled for the private address 192 instead of 10. The firewall shouldn't be an issue as this is all within the local area network.

However I realised yesterday evening that I had used forward slash instead of Windows backslash in the url. It turned out that I couldn't find a backslash on my Windows partition. I went back to MAC, wrote the address and saved it as text. Via a USB-stick I transferred this to Windows and pasted it in place. Same result.
Today I see John that you have used forward slash in your pictures and evidently that worked.
I have this house wired with Ethernet cables which is what I usually use and today I left Windows working with both wired Ethernet and wireless connection. It still didn't work but I got the notice from âWindows Network Diagnosticsâ âNo issues detectedâ.

I've also tried other drive letters but same result.

I have now installed WebSharing as Doug Steele suggested to see if that worked better. Same result. The only difference was that the port changed to :2112.

While I'm on the blog, I thought I would also ask about the Pimlical Desktop manual. Although I've uninstalled the previous desktop version and installed 2.1.10, when I click Manual, it is still for v 1.3.08! Is there an update button somewhere or is the manual hidden somewhere else on the web?

Once again many thanks for your help.

It's a network address. Even Windows uses forward slashes for network addresses.

I'm mystified. I assume you can log into your router so that you have confirmation that wireless network addresses are working at all.

I don't believe the Pimlical /D manual has ever been updated.

Hello again,

I can't find any problems within my Router.
I've also realized that I have 2 Squeezebox that connect to a Logitech Media Server which runs on a MAC mini Server in the basement. This connection is made via a network address. I've now also checked that this works wirelessly although normally it connects via Ethernet.

I'm beginning to realize that I won't be able to connect Pimlical/A to the Desktop version via WebDAV Server Pro. All other options seems to be closed in my present configuration. Finding a phone on the market that can connects to Pimlical/D via Direct Sync seems expensive and I can't get any assurance that it will continue to work with future upgrades to Android.

This is my 15th year with DateBk in various releases and on various Palms. My Palm Tx will hopefully last 1 â 2 more years but then I'm lost. DOES ANYONE HAVE A SUGGESTION?

The whole configuration with Google doing whatever they find appropriate with few concerns to Pimlical and hardware manufacturers doing what they think best to improve sales. This bears down to the fact that Pimlical will never be as safe and trustworthy as DateBk on Palm was. A calendar really has to be SAFE AND TRUSTWORTHY. Maybe its time to go back to those old paper things. It feels like a very sad prospect.

Many thanks for ideas

If you have not already done so write to CESD detailing this. There is something amiss, there are too many of us using WebDAV Server without difficulty to think that you cannot somehow have it work for you. I think CESD has had some computer problems of his own the last few days so response might be a little slower than usual. You might also contact the developer of WebDAV Server Pro.

Don't be insulted by this question. I'm sure this is something you checked several times. Are you sure that the computer you are connecting to is using the wifi network the phone is on when it tries to map the phone as a drive and not trying to find it on the ethernet network?

Gunnar -
It just occurred to me that there is something you can do to try to narrow down the source of the problem. The Mac can also do the equivalent of mapping to a WebDAV server, and if that works for you the problem would evidently be on the Windows end. With both the Mac and Android on your wifi network, turn on WebDAV Server Pro. Then in the Mac Finder "Go" menu, click on "Connect To Server", put in your address and choose "guest" and see if you connect. If so it's not the network or the Android or the Mac that's the problem...

Hello John,

Many thanks for your suggestions.
To start with the Windows suggestions I managed to find the various hidden
menu options but there was no change in the behavior of Windows and I
couldn't connect to Samsung.

The suggestion to connect from MAC was really excellent. When I click
Connect to Server I can put in the address to WebDav Server Pro but there
is no way to choose "Guest" (OS v 10.8.5). However my MAC cannot connect.
The odd thing is that both my MAC and my phone can surf on the wireless
network without problems. What does this mean? I can't figure it out. The
reason probably is that by profession I'm a Radiologist and not a Computer
Wizard. This is far above my knowledge.

Many thanks,
Gunnar

"The suggestion to connect from MAC was really excellent. When I click Connect to Server I can put in the address to WebDav Server Pro but there is no way to choose "Guest" (OS v 10.8.5). "

This makes me think that there is no connection occurring at this point. If there were you would get a dialog, I think, that gives the option for a password or guest, and I think that is generated by WebDAV Server. I've just put a set of four screenshots that show the sequence I see in the photos section of forum, album named "Mac to WebDAV". I'm using Mac OS 1.9.1, but I know this worked the same under 1.8.

"However my MAC cannot connect. The odd thing is that both my MAC and my phone can surf on the wireless network without problems. What does this mean? "

I don't know for sure, but I suspect either a problem in your WebDAV Server Pro app, or something about the partitioning. Two suggestions -
1) completely uninstall WebDAV Server Pro, reboot device, reinstall WebDAV Server Pro, try again.
2) see if you can connect Mac to WebDAV from the Go menu in your other partition, the non-Windows one.

"I can't figure it out. The reason probably is that by profession I'm a Radiologist and not a Computer Wizard. This is far above my knowledge. "

Above mine too. You're more likely to be able to figure it than I, you can see through things but all I can do is operate on them <g>....

Another thought - If you have more than one Android device you could try installing WebDAV Server on it and see if it will connect with your Mac.

Thanks for all help concerning my problems with WebDAV Server Pro.

I have now installed WebDAV Server Pro on my wife's Samsung Galaxy S3 mini.
I've tested it on my MAC partition which I'm more comfortable with. I've
also tested it on another MAC running SnowLeopard. Same result not
connecting.

I managed to get the data file from my Pimlical/D over to my phone about
6-8 months ago when it was still possible to copy the data file over a USB
cable. Because of this I have been able to go through all preferences and
play around with it. It's a pity I can't start using it.

It feels as if the problems I've encountered now are caused by Samsung's
tinkering with Android. I will never get my phone to work with a WebDAV
solution.

I will give this up for now. I suppose I will get a Nexus phone in about
half a year or so. I will follow the blog during this time and see what
happens. One problem with the blog is that most of the time only people
with systems that don't work write in.

QUESTION: Is there anyone out there that has a Samsung Galaxy S3 model
GT-19300 that has got WebDAV Server Pro working? Please report this to the
community.

For now I will continue to rely on my trusted Palm Tx and DateBk5. I hope
it lasts at leased another year.

There is a more awkward alternative, but I don't remember the details. However, I know people have done it here. Maybe John M remembers or people who have done it can maybe chime in.

I believe it is possible to copy from the phone the localdatabase file and get Pimlical to sync with it and then copy it back to the phone. That is, Pimlical/D will accept a file path to somewhere on your computer rather than on the phone and you manually move the data base back and forth, either over mtp or dropbox or whatever. I'll try searching for the information, but I've never been very successful with search on this new Yahoo version.

John M?

I don't know if it will prove to be more trouble than it is worth, but thought I would at least mention it.

That's in the files section, Direct Sync Info folder, Direct Sync with AOS 4.x devices.txt. I have copied it here ->

The second method is to mount the device by MTP, navigate in Windows Explorer to the PimlicalLocalCalendar.dat file, copy it to the Windows desktop, navigate to it in the P/D Direct Sync screen, sync to it, and then copy the .dat file, now modified, from the desktop back into the device sd/Pimlical/PimlicalCalendars folder to replace the old version.

That works for the calendar data, i.e. PimlicaLocalCalendar.dat, only. If you want memos and contacts to sync this way you must copy the entire Pimlical folder to desktop and then back.

Addendum - If you do use the entire Pimlical folder in order to sync memos as well as events you still direct the P/D direct sync dialog to PimlicalLocalCalendars.dat, not to the folder - P/D will find the memos and contacts dat files during the sync process.

Thanks again for the ideas.

What you describe John M is exactly what I did a long time ago. The
problem now is that I cannot connect the phone with my computer via a USB
cable and make them talk to each other. I cannot see files, I cannot copy
anything. This road appears to have been closed, I suppose by Samsung.

The only way I see as a possibility is to sync via Google Calender. The
problem from my point of view is that I don't want my private date on
someone else's servers. Naturally I don't have any top secrets in my 11000
events but I think it is principally wrong. My Palm will probably hold
out another year. If disaster strikes I have a backup on my Windows
partition so I haven't lost any significant amount of data. Possibly none.

Presently as far as I can see Google would be the only way.

There is something definitely wrong here. I can imagine that Samsung might have done something with the OS that would cause trouble with WebDAV protocol, but I can't imagine that under AOS 4.x they would have disabled usb cable MTP/PTP, that just does not make sense. The old usb peripheral mass storage drive is gone, but afaik all 4.x devices run usb MTP/PTP. You are clearly quite Android and Mac savvy, so you've probably already checked the following, but just in case -
1) I don't know if you can do this on a stock S3, but if you can, turn on usb debugging
2) In system settings/storage, tap the menu icon (three dots top right), tap usb computer connection, select media device (MTP)
3) When you plug a AOS 4.x Android device into a Windows computer with a usb cable for the first time the computer will usually install drivers. After that when you plug it in it will give you options to sync digital media files (that's MTP), or open to view files via Windows Explorer (that's what you want), or import pictures and videos (that's PTP). I run Win7 on a Fusion virtual machine on my Mac (not partitioned) and when I plug in usb, if I have the Windows running I get a dialog asking if I want to mount the Nexus under Mac or under Windows, and if I select Windows (to direct sync) I get the above dialog. The Mac itself will mount the open "sd" memory file system of the device via usb MTP but it requires installation of a little app "Android File Transfer" on the Mac first. It seems to me that your device *must* have this capability -??!! What I don't know is how your setup on the Mac works- you have the Win7 on a partition of the Mac drive and the implication is that your Windows just runs there as if on a hard pc, not a virtual one? Have you tried to see if your S3 will mount to the Mac (not Windows) via usb Android FileTransfer? Is there anything about that in your S3 manual?

One other thought - It seems to me I have seen comments here about doing direct sync by way of intermediate cloud storage such as DropBox, but I don't have any info or experience.

Thanks again for the ideas.

What you describe John M is exactly what I did a long time ago. The problem now is that I cannot connect the phone with my computer via a USB cable and make them talk to each other. I cannot see files, I cannot copy anything. This road appears to have been closed, I suppose by Samsung.

The only way I see as a possibility is to sync via Google Calender. The problem from my point of view is that I don't want my private date on someone else's servers. Naturally I don't have any top secrets in my 11000 events but I think it is principally wrong. My Palm will probably hold out another year. If disaster strikes I have a backup on my Windows partition so I haven't lost any significant amount of data. Possibly none.

Presently as far as I can see Google would be the only way.

The second method is to mount the device by MTP, navigate in Windows Explorer to the PimlicalLocalCalendar.dat file, copy it to the Windows desktop, navigate to it in the P/D Direct Sync screen, sync to it, and then copy the .dat file, now modified, from the desktop back into the device sd/Pimlical/PimlicalCalendars folder to replace the old version.

That works for the calendar data, i.e. PimlicaLocalCalendar.dat, only. If you want memos and contacts to sync this way you must copy the entire Pimlical folder to desktop and then back.

I believe it is possible to copy from the phone the localdatabase file and get Pimlical to sync with it and then copy it back to the phone. That is, Pimlical/D will accept a file path to somewhere on your computer rather than on the phone and you manually move the data base back and forth, either over mtp or dropbox or whatever. I'll try searching for the information, but I've never been very successful with search on this new Yahoo version.

John M?

I don't know if it will prove to be more trouble than it is worth, but thought I would at least mention it.

OK, I Googled "Samsung S3 MTP", and it appears you are very much not alone, there's tons about trouble with MTP/PTP with S3, and lots of fixes. Here's one ->

Hello John,

Thanks for your information about the problems with Samsung Galaxy S3 and MTP connections. The information on that web page was from 2012 up to april 2013. They didn't really have any fixes, just problems.

There was a major update to Android on may phone in early January and I suppose Samsung closed all doors at that time. It appears that several major companies want to force us to use there cloud based services. Unfortunately that also goes for Apple, but that's a different story.

Something the Yahoo blog should incorporate is information about what smartphones and tablets work with Pimlical.

That separate thread you started has only yielded one response with the same finding â it isn't possible to mount S3 on an MTP connection.
I think I remember CESD reporting that he had got himself a Samsung Galaxy S4. Do you know if he has got it to mount according to the MTP protocol?

It would be helpful to get a list of Smartphones that do work. I suppose Nexus is a good bet and possibly Motorola. At least they are now owned by Google. How independent they are I don't know.

Once again THANKS FOR ALL HELP.

Gunnar - You're welcome, but I wish I could find an answer for you. After a quick search of the forum it appears that there have been problems with S3 for over a year. See this ->

https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/Pimlical/conversations/messages/23030

I don't know which devices CESD has, I think quite a few but maybe not the S3. For some reason I seem to recall he may have an S4. Best thing would be for you to just email him direct and ask. I do know from a couple of recent beta emails that he has been slowed down a bit by some recent computer problems of his own (unrelated to Pimlical per se).
This really isn't a blog, it's a forum -- fine point, but there is no one in charge so to speak, it's just an open forum of networking users. I'm here a lot just because I enjoy it, but am just a user. CESD is the one-and-only "employee" of Pimlico Software, he does everything, and so while keeping a list of specific device problems would be nice the devices and OS variants change constantly and any time spent on that is time he can't spend coding, debugging, etc. and caring for the underlying reason he does this at all which is the Dewar Wildlife Facility.

One other comment regarding your comment " ...about what smartphones and tablets work with Pimlical". The problem really is not Pimlical not working on the S3, afaik P/A runs fine on the S3, it's that the device is not connecting with a pc either by wifi WebDAV nor usb MTP regardless of the presence or absence of Pimlical.
Also, I see that now there is one report here of webDAV working with S3 - good news.

One other data point, don't know if it is worth much.

I talked to a friend of mine with an S3 (he is not a Pimlical user). He has no trouble making an MTP connection with his S3 and even tried it for me with a new Win7 laptop he had just gotten and it set up fine. I think Windows first installed a "Composite device" driver and then the MTP driver. I remember my Windows & computer doing the same thing with my Nexus.

However, there are two caveats which may or may not have anything to do with what is going on here but illustrate how complex this stuff gets. First, he has never installed Kies. I had one Samsung device in Gingerbread days and also refused to install Kies-- just didn't trust Samsung to add another software layer to the equation.

Second, my friend (He is in US on Verizon) refused the latest Android update in January (I think he is currently on 4.1.2) pushed by the carrier as it included a change that permanently locks the bootloader in some manner.

Again, don't know if any of this means anything or is helpful, but it does illustrate how complicated troubleshooting on Android can be.

Actually, sorting through all of this in my head, I suddenly remembered something that happened late in November that caused my N5 to stop being able to make an MTP connection. The culprit turned out to be this Windows 7 Update:

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2862330

I used a restore point to roll back and everything worked fine again. I hid the update and have never reinstalled it. I now review all Windows Updates for anything that messes with USB.

It's puzzling because, if it had been a wide-spread effect, I would expect more chatter about it. Maybe it was an interaction with something else.

Interesting. I just checked and I have that update installed and my N5 connects ok by MTP.

Weirder. So do I now. And it is no longer on my hidden updates list. Further, it shows that it was installed 2 days ago which means I somehow failed to screen it. I wonder if they tweaked it to fix the problem and that the tweakeing made Win Update treat it as a new fix.

Oh well, scratch that. This stuff makes my head hurt. ;-)

Yes, apparently KB2862330 has recently been reissued. Here's Susan Bradley's discussion in the most recent "Patch Watch" column in the Windows Secrets newsletter:

MS13-081 (2862330)
A do-over for a Windows kernel update
On the rare occasions when Microsoft reissues a patch, itâs a public acknowledgment that something wasnât done right the first time. KB 2862330 was originally released last October, and now Microsoft is releasing it again. Itâs one of several kernel patches included in MS13-081 and applies to all versions of Windows.

Thanks for your information. I haven't installed Kies either. I started but
first there was a lot of information about adds that would come up and
âyou don't have to accept any of the offersâ.

However, when I started the process it turned out that when I declined all
offers the program wouldn't install. I tried 2 or 3 times and then backed out.

I want to keep my personal data away from all companies that want to put
their hands/servers on them. I will only run Pimlical local calendar.

What bothers me in this situation is what I wrote in a previous post:

The whole configuration with Google doing whatever they find appropriate
with few concerns to Pimlical and hardware manufacturers doing what they
think best to improve sales.
This bears down to the fact that Pimlical will never be as safe and trustworthy
as DateBk on Palm was. A calendar really has to be SAFE AND TRUSTWORTHY.

What I've loved about DateBk and what to me makes it worth working for are
the floating events and the Icons. With the help of icons I can get a rather
good overview of my upcoming month. The other thing is that I have 14 years of
old data in DateBk and it would be lovely to just continue on a smartphone.
Obviously Samsung was a very bad choice.
At the same time though, I realize that it will not be as stable as it was
back in the Palm days.

As my phone won't connect to my MAC partition it seems to me to indicate that
my present problems are primarily a phone issue.

I'm in the same situation ( as far as I can tell from a quick read
through of this email thread ) with a Galaxy S4; I don't think it's
caused by intentionally disabling of direct file system access, just a
push to make it easier for non-power users to do what they normally do

Agreed - regardless of any other opinions about the Cloud in general and
Google in particular, I think everyone would agree that you care more
about your data than Google does, so it's best if you manage it.

Bah, let's see what we can do about that.

Please try the following:

Log into your home router and check that an option stopping hosts on the
wireless network from talking to each other hasn't been enabled, look
for options called "wireless separation" or "wireless isolation" or
similar.

Now go to your Android phone and start up the WebDAV server.

Note the IP address listed, and the username and password.

Now go to your PC, ( MAC or Windows ), and try the following:

Open a command shell, either a "Terminal" on OSX or a "command prompt"
on Windows.

Type "ping", then a space, then the IP address listed on the WebDAV
Server screen, then press return. You should see some replies. That
will show if your PC can communicate with your phone at all.

If that doesn't work then there's some kind of connectivity problem on
your local network.

If that ping does works, then let's see if you can connect to the WebDAV
Server itself. In a browser on your PC go to the URL listed on the
WebDAV Server screen, for example:

http://192.168.1.20:8080

You should be asked for the username and password displayed on the
WebDAV Server screen, enter those, and see if you can see the files.
Don't click on anything, just use that connection to show that you can
access the WebDAV Server from your PC.

For Windows, note my post to the mailing list on September 7th of last
year ( I can't figure out a direct URL ). Try the "net use" command
listed from the command line, and note the required Registry change to
permit the use of "Basic AUTH" over unencrypted connections.

And if any of the above isn't clear, please do ask; networking is
counter-intuitive and complicated, if there's a problem I suspect you're
not the issue ;)

Great post, Nick! I hope he takes your advice to keep trying.
Regarding your "I don't think it's

Google killed usb mass storage intentionally and moved to only MTP/PTP intentionally. Here is a link to an article purporting to describe why -

Hello Nick,

Many thanks for your post. Right now I'm working away from home and will do so for 4 weeks. Consequently I can't do what you advice right now, but rest assured, it will be among the first things I do when I get home.

I do have administrator rights to my router (Cisco Small Business Router RV220W) but I sometimes feel an idiot when I confront it. However I'll do my very best. I've copied your posts to OpenOffice so it's handy to find them.

I've checked my S3 and there is at the bottom of the Wi-Fi screen a button for Wi-Fi Direct. When I go into that, my phone starts to scan for Available Devices.

Maybe there is a way out of this misery. The problem is that one has to be an IT professional to get all these things right.

If I succeed I'll post a report on the forum. If I don't succeed you may have question.

Many thanks.

Re-reading your message, I don't think "Wifi Direct" is the way to go, as (from my understanding, and other explanations on the web) this is a feature that enables devices (eg: two phones) to communicate without needing a wifi router "between" them. (USeful page on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wi-Fi_Direct )

Hello all,

Same as John W. for me too. I've fed my phone with the encryption string
which is long and varied. Then my router lets me play, downloading
programs and books to my Samsung S3. I know that this goes via the
wireless network, so my phone and the network can definitely talk with each
other.

Please don't feel like an idiot - in general IT is complicated, and in
particular Cisco equipment is regarded as "high end" - which means it
has more functionality than most, but also that it is more complex than
usual home networking equipment.

Agreed, the "cost" of all the technology we have access to is having to
figure out how to use it. Some of us have made careers out of figuring
out how technology "thinks" - which is what's needed in this case.
Having a calendar application that just synchronises easily is certainly
worth it though.

Hello Nick Drage,

I'm back in my home and I've started trying to get the synchronization to
work between my S3 and my Windows partition on my MAC.

First I logged on to my Cisco Router and checked the settings under
Wireless Profile Configuration.

It says Broadcast SSID enabled.

When I tried to ping - it didn't ping

Last login: Wed Feb 19 11:16:48 on ttys000
Gunnar-Nordenstam-2013:- gunnarnordenstam$ ping 192.168.1.105:8080
ping: cannot resolve 192.168.1.105:8080: Unknown host
Gunnar-Nordenstam-2013:- gunnarnordenstam$ ping http://192.168.1.105:8080
ping: cannot resolve http://192.168.1.105:8080: Unknown host
Gunnar-Nordenstam-2013:- gunnarnordenstam$ *

So as you said there is a connectivity problem. Are there more potential
configuration issues on a Cisco Small Business Router RV220W ?

I have an old Linksys Wireless G Broadband Router. Should I try to
change back to that one? There are probably fewer fancy settings that I
don't understand.

Many regards

Gunnar

Confirm that an option called "wireless isolation" *isn't* enabled, or
similar.

Apologies if I've asked you to check that before, and you already have,
this is a complex problem with complex threads of email behind it.

Ah, you'll need to use the command:

ping 192.168.1.5

The ":8080" is the port number on that IP address used by the WebDAV
server, the ping command only tests connectivity to hosts, not to ports
on those hosts.

Ah, "http://" is for URLs, and shows the protocol to be used to connect
to a resource. In this case you're just testing basic connectivity.
With the WebDAV server running try putting

http://192.168.1.105:8080

into a browser and see if you can access anything.

Probably not - let's get the connectivity tests sorted and take it from
there.

Let's keep that option as a "weapon of last resort"; I think it's a
better idea to wrangle with most complex equipment that gives you more
information and control than simpler equipment that makes complex
decisions on your behalf.

Hello Nick,

Now I've sorted other things out in my computer system and can now devote
all energy to getting webdav server to work.

First - My router's manual addresses wireless separation with these
phrases:

NOTE

STEP 1 STEP 2

Security Settings for Wireless Networks

Use the Wireless > Basic Settings > Security Settings page to configure
security for the selected wireless network. All devices on this network
(SSID) must use the same security mode and settings to work correctly.
Cisco recommends using the highest level of security that is supported by
the devices in your network.

To open this page: From the Wireless > Basic Settings page, select a
network and then click Edit Security Mode.

To configure a network with WPA Enterprise, WPA2 Enterprise, or WPA2
Enterprise Mixed security mode, you must first add a RADIUS Server
configuration. See Using the Cisco RV220W With a RADIUS Server, page 146.

If needed, select a different network in the Select SSID list. Enter these
settings for the selected network:

*

*

Wireless Isolation within SSID--Check Enable to prevent clients on this
wireless network from accessing devices on other wireless networks. To
allow access, click Disable.

Security--Choose a security mode:

-

- Disabled--Any device can connect to the network. Not recommended.
-

- Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP)-- Weak security with a basic encryption
method that is not as secure as WPA. WEP may be required if your network
devices do not support WPA; however, it is not recommended.
-

- Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) Personal--WPA is part of the wireless
security standard (802.11i) standardized by the Wi-Fi Alliance and was
intended as an intermediate measure to take the place of WEP while the
802.11i standard was being prepared. It supports TKIP/AES encryption. The
personal authentication is the Preshared Key (PSK) that is an alphanumeric
passphrase shared with the wireless peer.
-

- WPA Enterprise--Allows you to use WPA with RADIUS server
authentication.
-

- WPA2 Personal--WPA2 is the implementation of security standard
specified in the final 802.11i standard. It supports AES encryption and
this option uses PSK based authentication.
-

- WPA2 Personal Mixed--Allows both WPA and WPA2 clients to connect
simultaneously using PSK authentication.

Cisco RV220W Administration Guide

- WPA2 Enterprise--Allows you to use WPA2 with RADIUS server
authentication.
-

- WPA2 Enterprise Mixed--Allows both WPA and WPA2 clients to connect
simultaneously using RADIUS authentication.

* Encryption Type--An option is chosen automatically, based on the selected
security mode.

-

- TKIP+AES is used for WPA Personal, WPA Enterprise, WPA2 Personal
Mixed, and WPA2 Enterprise Mixed.
-

- AES is used for WPA2 Personal and WPA2 Enterprise. If you chose WPA
Enterprise or WPA2 Enterprise Mixed, no further settings are

required. You can save the settings.

If you chose WPA Personal, WPA2 Personal, or WPA2 Personal Mixed, enter
these settings:

-

WPA Key--Enter the pre-shared key for WPA/WPA2 PSK authentication. The
clients also need to be configured with the same password. As you type the
password, a message indicates the strength. For a stronger password, enter
at least eight characters including a variety of character types (numbers,
upper- and lowercase letters, and symbols).
-

Unmask Password--Check the box if you want to see the key as typed.
Otherwise, the password is masked.
-

Key Renewal--Enter the number of seconds after which the Cisco RV120W
will generate a new key. These keys are internal keys exchanged between the
Cisco RV120W and connected devices. The default value (3600 seconds) is
usually adequate unless you are experiencing network problems.

If you chose WEP, enter these settings:

STEP 4

*

*

Authentication--Choose the option that is supported by your network
devices: Open
System or Shared Key. In either case, the client must provide the correct
shared key (password) in order to connect to the wireless network.

Encryption--Choose 64-bit or 128-bit. 64-bit WEP has a 40-bit key, and
128-bit WEP has a 104-bit key. A larger key provides stronger encryption,
because the key is more difficult to crack.

Cisco RV220W Administration Guide

Configuring the Wireless Network 3

Basic Settings

STEP 5

-

WEP passphrase (Optional)--Enter an alphanumeric phrase (longer than
eight characters for optimal security) and click Generate Key to
generate four unique WEP keys in the WEP Key fields below. Otherwise, you
can manually enter one or more keys in the fields.
-

WEP Key 1-4--If you did not use the WEP Passphrase to generate keys,
enter one or more valid keys. Select a key to use as the shared key that
devices must have in order to use the wireless network. The length of the
key must be 5 ASCII characters (or 10 hexadecimal characters) for 64-bit
WEP and 13 ASCII characters (or 26 hexadecimal characters) for 128-bit WEP.
Valid hexadecimal characters are "0" to "9" and "A" to "F".

Click Save to save your settings, or click Cancel to reload the page
with the current settings. Click Back to return to the Wireless > Basic
Settings page.

If you need to configure the settings for another network, select it
from the Select SSID list, and then repeat this procedure.

The above is more or less written in Greek to me.

However, I've chosen Wireless and then chosen my networks name and then
edit. The next page in the setup is

*AP Profiles *

SSID: My networks name

Broadcast SSID: there's a box to tick which is ticked and it says
"enabled"

Security: WPA2 Personal

Encryption: AES

WPA Password: (a long one)

*WEP Index and Keys*

Authentication: Open system

Encryption: 64 bit WEP

I've pasted the input and output from my terminal window:

I see farther down that you've chosen this option, which is ideal.

Just as a note - you might need this option if you've got older
equipment on your wireless network, ideally your wireless network should
only support "WPA2" not "WPA".

Ah, so your PC can't reach your phone...

...oh, so it can!

I think the best option is just to ignore the fact that you couldn't
"ping" your phone for now. This result means you're making a connection
to the phone's WebDAV server.

It certainly does... right, what are "we" trying next?

No problem - I know I say this a lot, but do bear in mind that this
stuff is *hard*; not only have people like myself been doing this kind
of thing for twenty years, but also bear in mind networking is
counter-intuitive, complex, and the feedback from error messages if
usually far less helpful than it could be.

Right, onwards...

Gunnar, and Nick -
I waited to respond until Nick could reply to your Feb 27 post, which he just did and he , as I, concluded you are connecting pc to WebDAV Server. I have severely snipped/truncated your 2/27 post to that below for this reply. It looks to me as if you are connected and should be able to direct sync P/D-P/A. The array of items you see in Firefox, reported in your 2/27 post, below, is your device file system. You are connected. What I suggest you do now is make that same connection and then click on the line that says

sdcard<http://192.168.1.105:8080/sdcard>(edit with office)<http://192.168.1.105:8080/#>

or on the line that says

storage<http://192.168.1.105:8080/storage>(edit with office)<http://192.168.1.105:8080/#>

depending on which one (sd card or internal memory) is where you have your Pimlical folder. Ignore the "edit with office", irrelevant. Doing this should show you the collection of folders and files in your device memory including the Pimlical folder. If you click or double click on that you should see the contents of the Pimlical folder including PimlicalCalendars, and inside that the PimlicalLocalCalendar.dat file. This process is what you need for direct sync. If it behaves as I've suggested, while still connected this way open P/D, open the direct sync screen, and click on the path to pimlical android box, then follow the path to PimlicalLocalCalendar.dat the way you just did in FireFox. Probably the first stop on the way in the Windows Explorer screen that opens when you click on the path box will need to be "Computer" and the second will be your WebDAV server, and take it from there.

Hello everyone,

I've been distracted by other things for some time and I have had to leave
the Pimlical problems.

However, today I tried to follow your instructions John M Jr. Many thanks
for them as they are clear and easy to interpret.

I got contact between Firefox and WebDAV server on my phone and the file
structure showed up.

I went for storage and there I found sdcard0 which turned out to be the
virtual SD-card. There was the Pimlical folder.

I started up Pimlical/D and choose file / synchronize. I started following
the file structure to set the path. However, opening "Computer" there was
no WebDAV server or anything that pointed to my phone and I had to leave it
there.

I continued then to connect as I've done before with cable and MTP and
synchronized this way successfully. I hope this way will stay open but with
Google and Samsung, doing what they like with no concern to Pimlical users
it feels a little uncertain. Apart from this, this way of synchronizing
suits me actually better then WebDAV Server as I often work away from home
and away from my home network.

I will focus my attention on configuring PimlicalA instead of focusing on
WebDAV server.

I've copied Hide_tasks successfully. However when I open the program again
its back to default and I have to select Hide_tasks again. Is this as
should be? I'm also getting duplicates of some floats but not all! They are
not duplicated in Pimlical/D.

Once again THANKS FOR ALL HELP!

/Gunnar

Hi Gunnar -

With regard to "However when I open the program again its back to default and I have to select Hide_tasks again. Is this as should be?", go to P/A menu/preferences/View Settings/StartupFilter. It will probably say "Default". Change that to Hide_Tasks.
With regard to "However, opening Computer there was no WebDAV server or anything that pointed to my phone ", since you are connected it has to be there. Some time ago I posted a set of screenshots in the "Photos" section of the forum that shows the path, in the album labelled "WebDAV Screens". The first photo shows what you need, and here is the direct link to that image ->

https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/Pimlical/photos/albums/1101611966/lightbox/471330808

The item you need to click on is the item with the green bar labelled DavWWWRoot(\\***@8080) , except the url will be what you put in from WebDAV Server.

Unless you left something out or I am misreading (always a good possibility) it sounds like you left out one step-- mapping the new WebDAV drive in Windows so that it does indeed appear under my computer.

Hello again,

Thanks for your replies. YES I had forgotten about the mapping of WebDAV
server in Windows. I read about it a long time ago.

Now I'm again working away from home, this time for 5 weeks, so it will
take some time, before I can continue. I will however report on how I cope
with the WebDAV sync.

Many thanks for your help.

While I'm writing I must take the opportunity to ask a simple question. I
haven't been able to figure out how to write an underline character on my
Android/S3 keyboard. There doesn't seem to be that possibility. Should I
install another keyboard to be able to make Hide_Tasks the default filter?

Thanks for your assistance!

On my Android (HTC oneX), using the standard keyboard, underscore is on the left of the space bar on the numerals "page", as are quotes, parentheses, colons, and various other characters you might think are alphabet-related. HTH

Thanks, I've finally found it. What I missed was the 1/3 button when going
into numerical/symbols. On my setup it is in the 2/3 window.

Thanks

Gunnar -
I just reposted your question as the subject line of a new thread in hopes of attracting attention to it. Also, if you've not done so you might email the dev of WebDAV Server with the question -

Subject: Re: [Pimlical] RE: WebDAV Server Pro

Thanks for all help concerning my problems with WebDAV Server Pro.

I have now installed WebDAV Server Pro on my wife's Samsung Galaxy S3 mini. I've tested it on my MAC partition which I'm more comfortable with. I've also tested it on another MAC running SnowLeopard. Same result not connecting.

I managed to get the data file from my Pimlical/D over to my phone about 6-8 months ago when it was still possible to copy the data file over a USB cable. Because of this I have been able to go through all preferences and play around with it. It's a pity I can't start using it.

It feels as if the problems I've encountered now are caused by Samsung's tinkering with Android. I will never get my phone to work with a WebDAV solution.

I will give this up for now. I suppose I will get a Nexus phone in about half a year or so. I will follow the blog during this time and see what happens. One problem with the blog is that most of the time only people with systems that don't work write in.

QUESTION: Is there anyone out there that has a Samsung Galaxy S3 model GT-19300 that has got WebDAV Server Pro working? Please report this to the community.

For now I will continue to rely on my trusted Palm Tx and DateBk5. I hope it lasts at leased another year.

Gunnar -

"The suggestion to connect from MAC was really excellent. When I click Connect to Server I can put in the address to WebDav Server Pro but there is no way to choose "Guest" (OS v 10.8.5). "

This makes me think that there is no connection occurring at this point. If there were you would get a dialog, I think, that gives the option for a password or guest, and I think that is generated by WebDAV Server. I've just put a set of four screenshots that show the sequence I see in the photos section of forum, album named "Mac to WebDAV". I'm using Mac OS 1.9.1, but I know this worked the same under 1.8.

"However my MAC cannot connect. The odd thing is that both my MAC and my phone can surf on the wireless network without problems. What does this mean? "

I don't know for sure, but I suspect either a problem in your WebDAV Server Pro app, or something about the partitioning. Two suggestions -
1) completely uninstall WebDAV Server Pro, reboot device, reinstall WebDAV Server Pro, try again.
2) see if you can connect Mac to WebDAV from the Go menu in your other partition, the non-Windows one.

"I can't figure it out. The reason probably is that by profession I'm a Radiologist and not a Computer Wizard. This is far above my knowledge. "

Above mine too. You're more likely to be able to figure it than I, you can see through things but all I can do is operate on them <g>....

Hello John,

Many thanks for your suggestions.
To start with the Windows suggestions I managed to find the various hidden menu options but there was no change in the behavior of Windows and I couldn't connect to Samsung.

The suggestion to connect from MAC was really excellent. When I click Connect to Server I can put in the address to WebDav Server Pro but there is no way to choose "Guest" (OS v 10.8.5). However my MAC cannot connect. The odd thing is that both my MAC and my phone can surf on the wireless network without problems. What does this mean? I can't figure it out. The reason probably is that by profession I'm a Radiologist and not a Computer Wizard. This is far above my knowledge.

Many thanks,
Gunnar

Gunnar -

It just occurred to me that there is something you can do to try to narrow down the source of the problem. The Mac can also do the equivalent of mapping to a WebDAV server, and if that works for you the problem would evidently be on the Windows end. With both the Mac and Android on your wifi network, turn on WebDAV Server Pro. Then in the Mac Finder "Go" menu, click on "Connect To Server", put in your address and choose "guest" and see if you connect. If so it's not the network or the Android or the Mac that's the problem...

I own a GT-i9300 and I use WebDAV (free). I never had any problems syncing P/A with P/D (on win7 desktop)

Hello Gunnar
I'm using WebDavServer Pro with my Galaxy S2 to sync P/D with P/A. I find quite often that the sync path cannot be found, even though WebDavServer is started and Wifi is green: on and connected. The problem seems to be on the Samsung-side; deselecting wifi and turning it back on (possibly followed by WebDav off/on) works EVERY time. Worth trying if you haven't allready.

I have had problems using WebDAV Server Pro on my Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 8" tablet to connect to on Window 7. I cannot get it to let windows mount the tablet.

My solution is to use WebSharing instead of WebDAV Server Pro. There is one quirk, however: If I have mounted the tablet volumes on Windows and then dismounted those volumes and, perhaps, stopped and restarted WebSharing on the tablet so that it has generated a new password for Owner, Windows will not remount the tablet. My workaround for this is to go to Services (Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Services) and stop and then restart the WebClient service. I can then mount the tablet volumes.

Maybe its time to go back to those old paper things. It feels like a very sad prospect.

Gunnar -
Since you say WebDAV Server Pro connects to your wireless network ok I assume you have the app's network interface set properly, but just to be sure, in WebDAV Server Pro open the settings/network interface and make sure it is WiFi. Also the Port should usually be :8080, which it looks like it is from your post. The network address you have is very different from what I've always seen but that may be a difference of our devices (I have a Nexus 5, a Nexus 4, and a Samsung Galaxy Nexus all mapped to different drives, X, Y, and Z, and they all use htttp://10.0.1.x:8080 where the x is a different single digit for each of the devices).
Try remapping to a different drive letter.
In my system Win7 runs on a Fusion virtual machine, not on a separate partition, don't know if that's a factor, but Hook's thought about a firewall could be a consideration.

Subject: [Pimlical] WebDAV Server Pro

Hello!

I'm presently working on setting up Direct Sync via WebDav Server Pro as the cable USB connection with my Samsung Galaxy S3 doesn't work.

I'm working on a MACBOOK Pro with Retina display and I have Windows 7 installed on a separate partition on my MAC.

I installed WebDab Server Pro on my Samsung Galaxy S3 without problems. It connected to my wireless network with the address http://192.168.1.105:8080

In windows when I choose Start, Open, Map Network Drive and choose drive: Z which is what came up as default and type on the line for Folder http://192.168.1.105:8080 and click Finish they cannot find each other. Separately they can find the network and it works fine. I've repeated the above a few times with the same disappointing result, so there are no spelling mistakes. The Error code in Windows is 0x80070043 The network name cannot be found

Any idea what can be wrong?

Many thanks for your help

Not sure about the s3 but most keyboards have a different level on the numeric side so when you select numbers you may see along the bottom row something like 1/2 which if you press takes you to another page of symbols. On my keyboard a long press on the z key brings up the _ symbol as well....but they vary

again,
Thanks for
your replies. YES I had forgotten about the mapping of WebDAV
server in Windows. I read about it a long time ago.

Now I'm
again working away from home, this time for 5 weeks, so it will take
some time, before I can continue. I will however report on how I cope
with the WebDAV sync.

Many

While I'm

haven't been able to figure out how to write an underline character
on my Android/S3 keyboard. There doesn't seem to be that possibility.
Should I install another keyboard to be able to make Hide_Tasks the
default filter?

Thanks for
your assistance!

I've copied Hide_tasks successfully. However when I open the program again its back to default and I have to select Hide_tasks again. Is this as should be? I'm also getting duplicates of some floats but not all!
They are not duplicated in Pimlical/D.

Thanks,

I've found it now. When I opened the numerical page there was one key that
said 1/3. I thought it was just that and didn't touch it. In fact there
were three different pages of various characters including underline. I've
now got Hide_Tasks. What a relief.
