Syncing OSX / android - Absence of 'configure mnemosyne' option on settings dropdown

[jjamesg...@gmail.com]

Hi there,

I've updated to the new (2.4.1) version today and am trying to get a server set up to sync cards to my phone.

I tried this with a previous phone but gave up as it wouldn't work and didnt have the time to invest trying to fix it.

I'm using a Macbook Pro running OSX sierra 10.12; the phone is an OnePlus3t running android 7.0 w/ 'Oxygen 4.0.2'

My version of mnemosyne on the laptop doesn't display anything but 'manage plugins' on the settings dropdown menu - I'm presuming this is why I can't get a server set up:

When I try proceeding directly to the 'sync' option under the file menu I get the following error message:

I've tried reinstalling the software twice, to no avail - I'm an ardent fan of this software and would be hugely grateful to anyone with a solution to make it work on my phone too.

Many thanks.
James

Hi,

Yes, if you can't got to that menu, you can't set up your server. I cannot reproduce this under Windows, so I'm putting Devin, our Mac packager in CC.

Cheers,

Peter

Hey James

Instead of clicking on Settings, click on Mnemosyne (to the left of File). There should be an option in there called Preferences. Open that up (keyboard shortcut: Cmd + comma) and there's a tab for the servers.

Let me know if that doesn't work. I think that'll fix you though :)

Interesting! So that means OSX changes my menu layout behind my back J ?

 

Cheers,

 

Peter

Success!

Thank you both for your work with this software - I can't describe how useful it is.

I just had a Neuroimmunology exam for my specialty training that would've gone considerably less favourably without Mnemosyne aiding revision.

Keep up the good work.

All the best,

James

Thanks, glad you like it!
