I only just found out, that Companion is also available for Mac now, awesome!
I have a question regarding the Batch-Import option: "update songs if matching files are found".
This option only updates songs if files exist with the exact same name, correct?
Would it be possible to add further configuration
1. add some regex patterns or number of (consecutive) characters that may differ?
2. only update existing songs, dont add new ones?
My use case:
I upload sheet music to a folder, shared among my band mates.
Whenever I update a song, i recreate the pdf files and increment a version string e.g. "Title - Instrument.v8.pdf" -> "Title - Instrument.v9.pdf" (allowing difference of 1 character or even better difference within regex e.g. /v[0-9]*/ would suffice.
If a band member wants to fetch the latest updates, it would be super comfortable for them, to just refer to that shared folder with the companion app.
update only files that match (except for version string) and be done with it.
for many years a very satisfied user of MobileSheets, I encounter a hopefully minor problem.
Yesterday for the first time after I used it to upload new song sheets frequently in the last days and did a backup, the Companion did not start any more. After double clicking nothing happened. When I tried to reinstall the newest version today after deinstalling the old one, the installation ends with the error message attached.

I'll try to explain with an example, let's say i have 3 songs:
Song 1, key of G
Song 2, key of C
Song 3, key of A
And I want to add all the songs, a new value in the key field: "Original key"
If I select all the songs, edit them and add "Original key" in the key field, I'll have this:
Song 1, 2 and 3: key of G, C, A, Original key
However, what I want to get is this:
Song 1, key of G, Original key
Song 2, key of C, Original key
Song 3, key of A, Original key
I frequently have to add (or delete) a single value in many songs without affecting the previous data. Is that possible without having to individually edit every song?
Was working well. Not used for 6 weeks or so.
Now, mouse cursor shifts Samsung Tab7+ screen pages properly, moves L/R or U/D but in MobileSheets instead of switching pages, pedal press does not move pages but displays edit menu and sometimes copies image of a portion of the music and pastes as over lay on current page temporarily (about 10 seconds before disappearing.)?
When I run the test to see if pedal is connected correctly, again I see the cursor move but no "Key" entered. I don't think that I ever had a 'key' entered previously.
Any suggestions?
Thanks, Steve
I've only recently started using MobileSheets (e-Ink version) and have needed to use links for the first time today.
I am using a foot pedal for page turning, with 1/2 page turn option enabled and "Activate Next Link or Go to Next Page" set on my pedal.
I have to jump from page 3 to page 4 a third of the way down page 3.
When I get to the bottom half of page 2, I do a page turn, which correctly then displays the top of page 3 and the bottom of page 2, with my "link circle" visible in the top part of page 3.
When I press my pedal again, I was expecting to jump to page 4 as the link is visible on the page, but instead I get the bottom of page 3 displayed, and I have to press my pedal again to activate the link to page 4.
Is this correct behaviour? I was hoping that because the link is visible it would activate in preference to displaying the rest of page 3, which I don't actually need to see.
Of course, the other option is I'm just not used to using MobileSheets yet and should be pressing the pedal automatically as soon as I get to the top of page 3, and then the link would activate as the whole of page 3 is already displayed.
I would like to report a problem occurring during synchronization between Windows (server) and Android (client).
I am trying to sync pdf score files that contain an emoji in the PDF filename. When such a file is present, synchronization is aborted on Android with a "connection error" message.
The same error occurs when syncing from an M1 iPad (server) to Android (client).
If the file with the emoji is restored from a backup, Android does not seem to experience any issues.
On an Intel-based iPad, synchronization completes successfully, but the synchronized PDF files are not displayed — and even previously existing PDFs for the same "Composer" are no longer visible. By “not displayed,” I mean the file appears to open, the correct page number is shown, I can turn pages but the screen remains black.
The M1 iPad does not appear to be affected by this issue (i.e. it syncs (as a client) ok and operate properly).
I have several "buttons" assigned to a pedal. And one of them not here at home. It ist in the practice room. I want to delete one of the buttons. The only way i can find is to delete all buttons for the pedal, and then reassign the ones I need.
But because I have actually no access to the button in the practice room, I would prefer to just delete the single button I do not need.
Is there just a file of the settings, where I can edit this?
Hi, i have a one drive map shared with fellow musicians. Im not the owner of the map.
If i try to import a file from the map it doesnt show anymore.
If worked in the past but now it doesnt anymore.
Anybody had the same problem? Anybody have some solutions?
