Enjoy new chatting and sharing features at 4shared soon!
UPDATE: Now these features are available for you! Check them out in your accounts.
There are three gifts for you. First of all, in the near future you will have the possibility to enjoy chats with your friends within your account. If you open the second present, you’ll find something new about sharing. And, at last, the third gift is all about “Settings” changes. Aren’t you intrigued yet?
Let us introduce you with our new-year features in details:
Chatting
Chatting with friends is one of the most important parts of our life. 4shared decided to make it more convenient for its users. Soon, your text messaging with friends will look like a chat. You’ll be notified with new messages as well as notifications on the right corner of your screen. You’ll be able to check, read and answer them.
Keep in mind that old message indicator will be no longer available in the navigational menu. After opening a notification tab you’ll have to choose either messages or notifications. It will be very simple to check whether they are new or not, because you’ll see fresh messages and notifications at the top of the page first. Enjoy your chatting with 4shared!
Sharing
Those who want to share folders should keep in mind that they’ll meet some changes: to share a folder, you’ll have to invite your friends first. It is very simple: you choose the folder, press “Share” and invite members to your folder, choosing them from your list or taping an e-mail of a new one.
They will be notified about your intention to share, and will find your folder in “Shared with me” tab. Sharing with friends was never that easy!
Settings
To change your language or country you will need to open “Account overview” tab in “Settings” and change it.
Moreover, you’ll be able to check your account details, such as last login or used space. Don’t forget, users are welcome to change the design of their accounts, picking up a background they like.
Want some Christmas themes? It’s not a problem for 4shared user, because you can upload your own images to personalize your profile and files pages.
There are awesome news for Premium users too. They will be able to check their download statistics and traffic usage per definite month.
And, Santa didn’t forget about social network users. Facebook fans will be able to share their files with friends and even post the links to download files at 4shared on their walls. Enjoy new features with 4shared!

Something about sharing: does anyone who wants to download something from me must also be registered 4shared user? Is that option still on?
If yes then remove it ASAP and give us our sharing possibilities back.

Nice to see 4Shared’s continual development.
Does that mean a folder can no longer be shared publicly, such as via a forum link?
And does it also mean a person’s publicly shared folders will no longer be accessible via clicking on that person’s profile.
Some 4Shared support members may know that’s the purpose of my account to share files via forum links.

It it still on. You can’t even preview files if you’re not member and logged in. That’s just crayzee!! Not everyone to whom I send the link to my files needs or wants a 4shared account. Consider that. Don’t be lame.

Hey, 4shared!
Is it me or are you really deleting our comments here??
I just searched back till august posts on 4shared blog and couldn’t find some comments I made today and some other comments from other users.
It seems you are censoring this blog and deleting posts you don’t like.
How low can you go?
I’m not guessing here, I’m absolutely sure there are comments missing.
Shame on you, 4shared. Shame on you!!

Lyn says:
Is it illegal to share the music files?
Is it ok for you to take your purchased cd and share the music with your friend?
Of course it is.
If you have uploaded music to your 4shared account, of course it is not illegal to share that music with the 4shared community.
From here, from 4shared, you are not accessing illegal music files. You are downloading, or sharing music files that have been uploaded by someone to your website…4shared.
Now, where that music came from in the first place in another question, but one that does not concern us here at 4shared.
THAT is what is great about having a 4shared account.
——————————————————————-
This is so not true. And 4shared is doing nothing to check when someone complains about copyright and reports abuse.
Any fool can click that link and 4shared automatically gives you warning and removes your files/closes acc.
That happened to me. Someone was reporting file abuse and that certain “someone” introduced itself to 4shared as some copyright agency from my country so 4shared gave me another warning.
And what was the most interesting part – there is no such agency/with such name in my country at all, it was someones “made up”.
Maybe someone hated and wanted to remove my file because it was a christian song??
Anyway, 4shared did nothing to check the supposed “agency” but hurry up and hit me with a warnig and another warning of closing the account.
And that’s not the only case. My friends acc. was also closed due to false abuse reports just because it contained only christian materials.
Worth thinkin’ about it, huh?
And not only because of christian files – 4shared does nothing on checking the reports but believes it automatically and there you go – guilty as charged. You got warning (and maybe even an acc. closedown). Too sad…
I had to hide my files/acc from public search in order to keep them stored by 4shared.

I really do not know much about all this talk, perhaps because of the language. I would like to know only one thing: do 4shared and 4sync continue the service as before? that is, to put the link on my web pages to allow my visitors to download my files without problems. I do scrapping and follow some blogtrains where each month we make some scrapkits theme, which then offer to download for free, at least in those blogtrains that I attend. so this service will remain still? Otherwise, someone can advise those still in this service so I can change and move all my work?
anyway I thank 4shared for the service given us so far, but I can not afford to pay for this, so I need another free service.
TY very much

Dear Ketty! You can easily use 4shared service. It’s getting even better and more user-friendly. You don’t need to worry about your files – they are always secured.

You please fix an existing bugs first, then do an improvement, ok?
I’m asked support service for the issue with “up” button and not see any results within one week! Now I have much worse problem but seems all the stuff went for a christmas vacation and didn’t carry it out…
My 4shared premium subscription expires after 3 days and I don’t plan to extend it. I’d rather share my files on another file store that never gave a rise to contact their support for a problem.

Great Thanks for updating, I wish also if you could update the search filters, bring back the search by country it was awesome and worth the premium account. Thanks.
