Try the Alternate Installer - this is a text based installer that might work better than the liveCD depending on your hardware. If you do this, you may get a black screen before you even hit grub.

Improve this answer. Still far from a user-friendly install, but thanks to this I got past my black screens two of them, USB installer, and once installed for Nvidia drivers. Fail — eduncan I love Ubuntu and use it every day, but when a major version upgrade on a laptop with one of the commonest graphics and mobo chipsets in the world leaves you at a situation with a black screen and blanking cursor that probably only a reinstall from a live CD will fix, it makes me wonder why people think it will displace Windows any time soon.

Why do I have to choose between crap graphics performance or a proprietary driver that will wreck an install when an upgrade happens? What if even after "nomodeset" I still have blank screen when I try to boot Ubuntu for the first time after installation?

Any idea why I'm getting also the black screen with cursor when trying to boot from recovery mode?

This way worked finally!! I have had this mystery solution as well. I think it was looking for a boot partition from some USB devices and it wasn't finding it, or was trying to read and getting hung. The only thing I had plugged into a USB port was my mouse.

I tried your solution, but unfortunately had no luck. I remember this solution from Windows: I suspect your computer might have been trying to boot from one of those USB devices, and didn't do anything because they couldn't really boot. This solution worked for me. If you are using the Windows Installer Wubi Wubi overrides are identical to normal installs except the first time you reboot after running the installer in Windows.

Uso Create Synchonicity no Windows 10 Pro Funciona perfeitamente, como quando usava no Windows 7 Pro Gostaria de saber como evitar copiar arquivos de sistema.

It works perfectly, as when I used it on Windows 7 Pro I would like to know how to avoid copying system files. Comment by Daniel Post reply. Hi Clement, Just discovered Create Synchronicity. Just what I was looking for: no non-sense, solid, portable backup app. Out of curiosity, i looked at your bio. Love your work, style and interests. All with a french touch! A plus, Daniel. Comment by Menno Post reply.

Hi there, I have been using Synchronicity for some time now, It works great, but I'm encountering a peculiarity I work from a network drive, which I keep offline using Windows.

This is my working folder. I then do an icremental copy of all the files to another network drive, which is in a folder which all my colleagues can see. It seems that Synchronicity copies al the attributes of the files and folders I copy, so files on the target drive also become available off line. That's costing me quite a bit of disk space of course. Any suggestions to fix this? I'd like to not have the files in the target directory kept offline by Windows.

Reply by lulo Post reply. Agree wholeheartedly with this request! Volume Shadow Copy is the most important missing feature of the very few that I miss from this otherwise magnificent program.

Even have tried to run Create Synchronicity from a batch script using the vshadow. Would be awesome if Create Synchronicity could also backup all the locked open files. Can be enabled in an advanced configuration somewhere? Comment by Gabriele Post reply. Thanks for your program, exceptional program, sta funzionando perfettamente.

Help, the program has the ability to do automatic shutdown? You can make Create Synchronicity run arbitrary command after synchronization completes; there are example scripts on the downloads page, including one for shutting down the computer after syncing. Comment by Marian Post reply. I have a problem on Windows 10, the application does not want to start at startup, even if it appears on startup list.

Reply by Paolo Post reply. I'm having the same problem. It's specific to Windows The error is: "Create Synchronicity cannot write to your installation directory although it contains configuration files. Your Application Data folder will be used instead. I do not want to backup these, so they must be excluded.

I would greatly appreciate any help, because the software is quick and efficient to maintain a mirror backup. Comment by Anas Post reply. Comment by fakhrurrozi amnur Post reply.

Comment by Richard Post reply. Is this software being developed anymore? This my favorite sync software, but I have not seen any activity in 3 years. There's been a bit of activity actually! Mostly on the translations front though. I don't have that much free time these days so I haven't been implementing too many new features, but that's in line with Create Synchronicity's simplicity goal anyway.

I'm committed to fixing bugs if they pop up, but I'm happy to say that no significant data-threatening bug has popped up in the last three years:. Comment by Christopher Post reply. You need to list the operating system compatibility for this software Windows only on your download page and in your FAQ, otherwise it wastes times for people who are looking for a solution that will work cross-platform.

I found it finally supported OS's listed in the manual but the download page and the FAQ page are where people will look first. Comment by indig0F10w Post reply. To say it simple - the best synchronization application in the world. Heavenly intuitive, user friendly, lightweight This application is one of the brightest stars in software universe.

Thank you. Comment by David Hall Post reply. I love this program, it is the best laid out sync. It is so simple to use, anyone can use this program without looking at any help files. Great Sync. Comment by Vivian De Smedt Post reply. I'm using the application since several months and I like it very much.

I have defined several profiles to avoid to backup unnecessary files like. I'm force to wait that the first is finish before launching the second one. Is there a way to do that? Hi Vivian, Thanks for your comment.

The UI does not yet have a setting to run all profiles in a group at once, but you can use the command line for that; see help command-line for information about this you would want to put them together in a group.

Comment by Martin Post reply. I have been using this application for about two years, and it's by far the best I've found for file backups.

I backup two laptops and a desktop to a Synology NAS on a schedule, and it just works brilliantly, and has a very small footprint. One suggestion I have is to maybe have the app wait a couple of minutes before catching up a missed backup. The situation I find is I switch my PC on, and as soon as Windows loads Create Synchronicity detects the missed backup and tries to start the backup task. This is often before my networks card has fully initialised and all the other windows stuff has settled down.

As a result, the app says it can't find the destination Network NAS and fails. Having the app wait a few minutes would help I think! Thanks again for such a great piece of software. Comment by Thom Inman Post reply. I can't delete the program. Hate to buy the uninstall program just to do it. Id rather donate to you than do that. I've delete a profile but it keeps doing the script anyway. I dont get it. I run a PC with Windows 8. It that the issue. I want to keep the program - just dont know what to do to control it What are you talking about?

What do you mean by "buy the uninstall program"? And do you mean by "it keeps doing the script anyway"?

I'm rather confused by our question. I'd love to help, but I'll need more information. Comment by MD Post reply. I am loving the app so far. But when I select items to backup, I don't know the size of the backup set. This causes me to have to guess which folders I need to delete from the backup set to fit onto the external drive.

I peeked through the online manual but did not see anything on this topic. Comment by Franco Post reply. It's a great app and very useful. Is there an option to redo my sync?? Comment by Golfy Post reply. It works perfectly : I can save my files on a network computer! Light, easy, smart Comment by NateInMaine Post reply. Excellent utility. Saved me recently when a hard-drive crashed. I replaced the bad drive, synced back to it, and was up and running again within a day.

This is a simple but elegant utility, with automated backup routine that I have set to sync my files nightly. Comment by swimshoe Post reply. Comment by NZPete Post reply. Brilliantly simple, yet incredibly effective. Stumbled across this application on the internet, trying to find just such a utility. A small donation has been made. Comment by John Post reply. This pup doesn't need a formal winblows installation with hooks in the registry which means throw it on your backup drive and it becomes a transportable quickie bi directional directory file sync!

The pup is a self contained executable and it works in a windoze environment stand alone with a GUI! Use quote marks to refer to system resources by logical name, not hardware e. I am impressed! Comment by Just Me Post reply.

I'm running Ubuntu Comment by Saud Post reply. It would be really nice to check for file integrity before starting a backup, like creating filecheck. If the file is corrupt or encrypted with a ransom-ware virus then stop the whole backup process. There are so many viruses that encrypt or corrupt the files and ask money, it would prevent Create Synchronicity from copying bad files to good locations.

Comment by Eric Montagne Post reply. Hi, Thanks for your great software which is easy to use. I've 2 requests about Create Synchronicity: - first, an improvement: add a popup window when synchronizing a new profile the first time if the destination directory isn't empty to inform that all content will be destroyed.

Comment by Michael Macaulay Post reply. Comment by Scott Post reply. I used to use a great old tool called FileSync many years back, and it had a great feature that I haven't found a suitable alternative to in many other tools. Whilst it used to allow you to keep two directories in sync, it also used to allow you to choose to output the differenced files that require syncing to a completely separate directory, in effect allowing you to create a patch or collection of files the to be used to transfer elsewhere to bring another folder up to date.

I don't know if you've thought of adding this type of feature before now? Comment by Sebastien Post reply. This is really important! Reply by Sebastien Post reply. The latest beta has it. You write folder".

Otherwise, editing configuration files works as well see the manual. Comment by typhoon Post reply. Would it be possible to add the ability to pause the syncronization? Right now you can cancel it, but then you have to restart the job, which can be time consuming. Comment by Michael Thompson Post reply. Nice program. Does most of what I need, but would be nice to have the following: 1. Ability to schedule multiple times per day.

For example, I might want to synchronize every 2 hours. I use real-time controllers that have read-only file systems. They write their log data to ram-based disks which are wiped out if power is lost. In order to minimize the amount of lost data, I would like to synchronize every two or worst-case, four hours. The controllers require logon credentials to access them.

It's generally not to good for your hard drive to sync too often, especially automatically and it hurts the performance of the rest of your system, too. Still if you really want to do it, you can run a planified task every two hours, that calls Create Synchronicity on the command line.

Write me for more details, or look at the manual :. Comment by Kolio Post reply. Hi Clemente! Thanks for this great tool! Was thinkin, if you make it recognise that a folder was simply moved, it would save alot of time of deleting the folder copy at the old place in the tree and the copying it across again on the new place.

Folders can be quite big! Reply by typhoon Post reply. I have that too when when I rename folders, they have to get copied again. Comment by Kooki99 Post reply. Fantastic program!! Gets the job done, all in background with a great level of settings Thank you! Comment by Ben Post reply. Hi, first thanks for this, it's a great program : Just wondered if you would be able to add the total time remaining and total size remaining to the sync window? Other than that I love this program, keep up the good work!

Comment by Curry B Taylor Post reply. Logs get really big really quickly. It would be great if we could tell the program to only keep the logs from the last N number of backups, for each backup.

And indeed you can! Add "Archived log entries:3;" to only keep logs from the last 3 backups, for example. It's all in the manual ;. Comment by DrM Post reply. This is a great little tool.

I've been looking for something like this with a small footprint. Comment by Stuart Post reply. Of course! Create Synchronicity backs them up by default. Comment by John Mulligan Post reply.

Was this review helpful? Yes No. Version: 11 Rating: 10 Date: Votes: 1. I've used Voyager based on Ubuntu over the last couple of years, and it looked great but was slow and frustrating. This latest release based on Debian-Stable, though, is absolutely awesome - very slick and responsive.

The package manager only draws from three Debian repositories; Release, Updates, and Security, so it really is a Debian system. But they've dressed it up with themes and extensions to make a beautiful desktop.
