We are recording this one now. It will play right here when it is ready.

RaceLyx syncs in the background: tracks, drivers, classes, events and results. If you change computers, sign in on the new one and restore everything from the cloud.

Before you start

  • Signed in to RaceLyx Cloud.

Step by step

  1. 1

    Sync status

    All synced, Syncing, N queued, or N need attention with Retry all.

  2. 2

    Sync Now

    Last synced shows the time.

  3. 3

    Restore on a new PC

    The sync window shows what is here, what is in the cloud, and what will move.

  4. 4

    Sync now

    "This computer and RaceLyx Cloud are in sync."

Tips

  • The sidebar chip shows Synced, Syncing, N queued or Offline.
  • Nothing is deleted by a sync. If the same item differs, this computer's copy wins.
  • On a fresh PC, RaceLyx offers to copy everything down as soon as you sign in.

Troubleshooting

"N uploads need attention".
Press Retry. If one keeps failing, Discard drops only the queued upload; your local data is safe.
A conflict asks which to keep.
Keep this computer's or Use the cloud's.
