| Offline Folder Sync issue Hello All, I got a quick question: I setup up my Documents sync with a server shared folder, I use to be able use the offline files when I left the office. However today, when I used a public connection at Star Bucks, I found all the items in my Documents lost, which made sense since I am totally off the local network, I then went back to office and did a sync at logon, it went pretty fast, then I logged off, it took a while to sync again, since my sync was setup at both log on and off. Then I went home and found that my Documents contains all the folders there, which is a kind of improvement, but no files in the folder. Don't know why, any one could explain this? Thanks a lot, Sincerely, Ben |

Were there any errors in the console when it was syncing? Was the server changed? You can re-initialize the Offline Folder cache by holding down Shift-Ctrl and clicking the Delete files button in the config page of OF. It doesn't delete files when holding down Shift-Ctrl. Give that a try and see if it doesn't help. -- Terry R. ***Reply Note*** Anti-spam measures are included in my email address. Delete NOSPAM from the email address after clicking Reply. |
