Vista PC finally synced to orig folders, but misses changes, Win 7 PC works fine
My main PC is Win7-64 bit, and it syncs with my other Win 7-64 bit PC bit with no problems. However, it took lots of "sync now" requests and rebooting to get my wife's Vista 32 to sync the first time. And now that I'm making changes to the synced folders, the Vista machine seems unable to see the changes. I've repeated everything I did to obtain the original sync to no avail. It goes through the motions, and says, "all syncs are up to date," but they are not. The changes and additions are not there. The total folder size doesn't change. Any ideas?
Here's another update: I just noticed that the little icon beside the last folder that was synced is different. Instead of having a green circle with a check mark, it has a blue circle with two little marks in it. The whole thing is only about 5 pixels wide which is why I didn't notice the difference earlier. I have no idea what it's trying to tell me or how to find out.
Don't everyone jump in here at once. Is anyone there?
OK, now, I'll leave one final note, since it appears no one has had similar problems. I found the blue icon listed in the user's guide, and it explained why I hadn't noticed it earlier. It wasn't because it was so small. It was because it hadn't been there. The silly program had started working again. It did finally finish after a couple of days. I guess it just takes its own sweet time, but it seems to have done a good job. Hope my experience helps someone someday.
Thanks for sharing!
