4Sync plus Torrent
4Sync is a really convenient service. There are countless tasks which can be solved by means of it. 4Sync can be a hosting for small websites, a backup of the data and just a tool for transferring small files. I would like to tell about one of the unusual 4Sync uses. Remotely downloaded torrents.
Picture this: you are at office or on a visit. Your colleague or a friend advises to watch an interesting film or TV-show. You found this film on a tracker, but can download only at home …But with 4Sync and simple adjustment of the uTorrent, it is possible to start downloading a film or any other file at once! I’ll tell and show you how it works.
NB: 4Sync free version gives you 15 GB of storage place. This is more than enough for torrent files and movies.
1. Install 4Sync
2. Create a folder inside “My 4shared Sync” folder. Name it “Torrents”, for example. Right there you will put torrent files which you want to download
3. Install a uTorrent client
4. Click on the preferences panel
5. Pick the “Directories” option
6. Pick the “Automatically load torrents from:”
7. Click “browse” icon and pick folder named “Torrents” inside “My 4Sync” folder.
8. Pick a directory for new and completed downloads
9. Uncheck «delete loaded torrents» option. It will be more convenient to monitor what was downloaded and you simply won’t clutter up your 4Sync
10. Go to UI Settings section of the preferences and uncheck the “Show a window that displays the files inside the torrent” option.
That’s it! All you have to do to download a movie being somewhere else is to drag-and-drop a torrent-file in your 4Sync “Torrents” folder and uTorrent will start downloading your file automatically.
I hope you’d like it! Read our blog and stay with 4Sync! Bye!
