v4.3 [Feb 6, 2012]
Features:
Improved performance of concurrent file copies.
Improved responsiveness when aborting a large file transfer in a scheduled synchronization.
Fixes:
Fixed a bug that would sometimes cause a crash when closing a previously created sync document with certain settings in effect.
Fixed a date/time conversion bug that could cause scheduled synchronizations to fail for users with non-U.S. region settings.
Fixed a case-sensitive filesystem bug that was generating a "File not found" error when a previously-synced file was modified and its filename's case changed.
Fixed a bug that would cause a crash if synchronizing a case-sensitive filesystem to a non-case-sensitive filesystem and the case-sensitive target had two files that differed only in case.
Fixed a bug that would, under certain circumstances, allow the same synchronizer document to execute concurrently and eventually lead to a crash.
Fixed several incorrect translations and/or user interface elements.
