FolderShare service outage

Dear FolderShare users,

Earlier today our system encountered a server failure from which it is now
recovering, during this time some of you might experience connectivity
issues.
Your client machines will automatically sign back in over the next couple of
hours.

We apologize for the inconvenience and will keep you up to date on our
efforts to restore full functionality.

Thank you,

Anton Katz
Program Manager - Windows Live FolderShare

RE: FolderShare service outage

It is 3:15 central time and I am still having issues connecting. I connected
for a short time but the files will not sync. Are you still having issues on
your end?

Thanks,

Kathy

RE: FolderShare service outage

Thank you Anton for the update. It's such a great program, we all get
dependant on it on a daily basis.
Looking forward to it being up and running

Re: FolderShare service outage

Shortly after 5 pm EST (on Tuesday 2008feb12) and I have a number of machines which have still not reconnected.

I'm torn between leaving them to reconnect or disconnecting and seeing if they reconnect, potentially losing my space in a long queue.

Re: FolderShare service outage

Hi,

The FolderShare service has now been restored, you should not be
experiencing difficulties logging in.

Thank you for your patience,
Anton

Re: FolderShare service outage

Hello -- It's February 13, and the problem (which did correct itself last
night) has resurrected itself, at least for me. FolderShare loads but is
still "logging in." Are there ongoing server problems?

Thanks
