I've been messing with this now for a few hours. I'd hate to go back to StarExplorer and multiple computers, but it looks like I may have no choice.

I've tried reinstalling it, upgrading it, and even system restoring my system to a previous working state. :dunno

Any assistance appreciated.

    We can help, but we'll need more specifics - error messages, behavior, what is happening exactly?

    Thank you for the reply Andy. :): I think the author may be having some problems with the program itself as noted on his forum, but it is strange that it just stopped working. ne_nau.gif

    I just tried it and it seems to be working correctly again. ne_nau.gif I will do a battery of tests and see what details I come up with. Stay tuned.

    But StarExplorer > Send to Smugmug! Why do you say StarExplorer requires multiple computers?

    Okay, it seems to work fine if I upload to an existing album.

    But if I try to "Create new Album" upon upload, I get the following message inside a dialog box:
    An unhandled exception has occurred in your applicaiton.  If you click Continue, the application will ignore this error and attempt to continue.  If you click Quit, the application will be shut down immediately.
    
    Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
    
    If you click on the "Details" button on the dialog box, you get this:
    See the end of this message for details on invoking 
    just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

    ************** JIT Debugging **************
    To enable just in time (JIT) debugging, the config file for this
    application or machine (machine.config) must have the
    jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
    The application must also be compiled with debugging
    enabled.
    
    For example:
    
    <configuration>
        <system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
    </configuration>
    
    When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
    will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the machine
    rather than being handled by this dialog.
    
    Clicking "Continue" basically does nothing to the application, but does make the box go away. "Quit" does what it says and shuts down the application.

    I disagree.

    I have 3 cable modems and a Linksys rv016 router. This router manages bandwidth based on usage to the cable modems.

    The only way to saturate all 3 cable modems is to have 3 instances of files uploading, each saturating each upload stream, hence using all my available upload bandwidth.

    FTP clients have been doing this for a few years now, using a "queue" and "streams" to connect multiple times to an FTP server in order to maximize the upload speed. But this feature does not exist in any form for a SM uploader. :cry This is supposed to be possible in the upcoming new SM uploader, SmugUp.

    So the only way to maximize the bandwidth utilization is to use multiple instances of an uploading program. S2SM allows multiple instances on a single computer. SE does not. So to get SE to do what S2SM can do, I have to run SE on multiple computers on the network. umph.gif And SE starts up very slowly due to the large number of galleries I have. I'm saving around 30 minutes in just set up time alone with S2SM. thumb.gif

    I actually purchased a SE license for uploading my entire library onto SM. It works pretty well for that--making large upload batches for multiple galleries. But it can't saturate the bandwidth. That's when I started using multiple computers to increase the speed of the upload multiple times.

    And both programs still suffer from occasional missing pictures. I always have to verify all my uploads. ne_nau.gif
