Posted June 19, 200816 yr Howdy- Is there a way to force-sync a laptop to update its filesystem 'offline status'? Ex: a laptop that has a sync relationship setup with a network share 1. undocks 2. does some work/modifications 3. re-docks However, the offline folders *cannot* be forced to update themselves... Right-clicking the Sync Center icon & choosing 'Sync All' does nothing. When you right-click the context menu for some of these folders, the 'Sync' option is missing altogether. No conflicts appear present & a very vague Error 'Unable to sync at this time. Please try again' appears in the Sync Results view. The only thing that appears to work is rebooting and logging back into the computer while it is docked... This doesn't seem like a handy feature for mobile users who may want to dock/undock without a major impact, especially if they want to keep apps/state open. Is there something I'm missing? TIA, BM
