"Collaboration" is a term popular word in the business world, in the fierce competition, even among colleagues in the same company, it can also cause serious competition. Nuts cloud and other cloud storage services offer a new solution for collaboration with colleagues, and sometimes need to deal with the same file stored in the cloud nuts colleagues to collaborate on projects.
The main method of sharing files on the cloud nuts and others have two. One is sent to anyone who wants to access files through a Web link, the other is through a shared folder. Shared Folders feature is at the same time you want to access. If you download nuts cloud desktop application, you can access the folder online or on the computer desktop.
Configuration

Potential conflicts
By then, all who accept or online can begin to collaborate on the same document from the desktop. Any change any of the collaborators and saved will be reflected in the desktop folder and online folder. This may result in two or more people to process and save the changes to the document at the same time, it could be confusing. To solve this problem, the cloud will be different nuts collaborator changes saved in a separate file, so you do not inadvertently between someone covered by the work of others.
How to solve a file conflict ?
After the file conflict occurs, you can search for all with the local - file "Conflict" (Windows) or the words "-NSConflict" (Mac OS X or Linux), take the following measures:
- If it is determined there is no real content of the document modification, or conflict contents of the file should be overwritten cloud file, you can directly remove any conflicting files. Even misuse, can still recover from a cloud of historical versions of nuts out of the conflict file content comparison.
- If you use git / hg management code in accordance with the recommended method for conflict file code library (Repository) can be deleted directly without worrying about data conflicts. For example, you can search for it all with "- conflict" or "-NSConflict" file, and then removes them altogether.
- If the contents of both documents clearly differentiated (This scenario often occurs in people sync), you need to manually open the two files, compare, and then modify the file in the conflict moved to the original file, and then removing the conflict files. For text documents, you can use tools such as winmerge for comparison; For Word documents, Word comes with a content file compare can be used to compare (Office 2003: Tools -> Compare and Merge Documents, Office 2007 above: Review -> compare) .
- If for uninstalling the client or "Cancel sync" after modifying the file content and the cloud leads to inconsistencies, conflicts re-install the client and "restore sync" generated, then the file can be confident that the conflict should be the updated version. You can delete files off of cloud sync, then the conflict will rename the file to its original name.
