I have created a folder in the Ubuntu One sync folder and called it music. I have added various albums and the folder has started to sync. However the files were added back in October and still only the folders have synced and no music files.

I tested this service before and added a single music file directly into the Ubuntu One folder (no sub folders) and within a few days it synced, however it seems anything in sub folders seem to stall or take a very long time.

My ubuntu One program always says syncing and the progression bar creeps, but still no files synced.

I know there are issues with speed but a month and going to sync?

I recently tested the same files with Dropbox and it took 9 hours.

I have port forwarded the https (443) port both in the software firewall and in my router, I tried disabling both firewalls too, either way it makes no difference.

I have also tried both from home and the office on different Ubuntu systems.

Is there anything anyone has done to improve this service? I am trying to integrate Ubuntu One service into the office to share project files but the syncing is taking to long.

I am using the latest Ubuntu 10.10 (fully updated, fresh install), I love Ubuntu and wish to continue to support it anyway I can, so a solution would be good :-)

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Paul
