Sentry link (for developers)

Have you tried my suggestion here?

3

There’s unfortunately no backup to be done as it was my first time downloading it.

4

Is there a way for me to download it from a file in lieu of from anki hub? I have tried everything.

5

This your first time using Anki? Can you create cards normally or does the same error appear?

6

This is not. No issue with creating cards. I am also able to download other decks from anki hub (I.e. sketchy pepper) but not the anking deck.

7

Interesting.

@Ahmed7 Do we have the deck as apkg on Drive or something so @mdearey can try downloading it from there?

8

I dont believe we do, @andrew

I can export mine but i have stuff in lecture notes so I’m not sure how to export without that

9

You can export the deck to a separate profile, use Find and Replace with the following options to empty the Lecture Notes field, then export again:

Any update? The entire error code is attached below. I still have been unable to download the deck without getting an error message.

11

What if you try installing Anki version 23.10 and try again?

Or perhaps create a new profile and do the same?

12

@mdearey Just to narrow down the source of the error: can you create a new profile, log in to your AnkiHub account there and try downloading the AnKing deck?

13

@mdearey , I’m wondering if this is caused by limited available storage on your computer. Can you let us know how much free storage you have on your computer? You can do so following these instructions: See used and available storage space on your Mac - Apple Support.

15

I have 32.49 GB available.

16

@jakub.f , do you have any idea about this one?

@Ahmed7 , can you export your deck and share it with @mdearey in a PM?

17

Done!

@mdearey lmk if you can access the folder and everything goes well
