I have been using insync with Truecrypt on elementary OS, Freya, Ubuntu based OS. Today I started getting errors with respect to long file names: insync reports that certain files cannot be synced as the paths are too long.
Any help is appreciated!

@Jackal: Is your home partition encrypted? There is a current limitation with encrypted file systems where the maximum filename is limited to only 143 characters. If so, please see here (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ecryptfs/+bug/344878) for details. Unfortunately since this is a limitation of the underlying file system we have no control over it.
Thanks, I think that’s it, as it works on other Linux unencrypted boxes.

It´s really effective and you can solve your problem in less than 2 minutes
Try Long Path Tool as it can remove any problems that you might have.
