Not Apple, but Qt :-)

If that's the error you are getting, it does seem indeed to be firewall 
related. Is there a way you could temporarily disable it and see if that 
changes anything?

Also note that there are two kinds of sync:

* a full sync, which happens the very first time and each time it finds a 
conflict
* a 'normal' sync which happens a lot quicker

It's not that your errors occur in one situation and not in the other? Or are 
they mixed?

(BTW, in the server configuration dialog you can disable 'check for changed 
media files' if you don't need this, it will be faster)
