Hi,

I have purchased and installed Microsoft 365, and downloaded SkyDrive pro 2013.

When I chose 'sync' in the skydrive tab of my office web app, I am prompted as to which library I would like to sync and the location to save the folder.

However, when attempting to sync, I have encountered a few problems, such as:
  • Blue arrows (in a circular shape) are constantly displayed, and the 'green sync tick' never appears
  • Microsoft update centre error message - talking about encountering a problem with the document cache & offering to repair (repair does nothing)
  • Nothing happening when I click sync in the office web app
These are the steps I have attempted to resolve the issue - to NO AVAIL;
  • Call Microsoft support (several times) and was waiting on a call back for two weeks, until they finally referred me to online help
  • Change / repair both Office 365 and SkyDrive Pro 2013 via control panel
  • Change the library that I have chosen to sync with
  • Uninstall SkyDrive Pro 2013 client and reinstall it.  I have done this step many times, altering between the 64-bit and 32-bit versions
  • Uninstall Office 365 AND SkyDrive Pro 2013 client - then perform a full reinstall
The above dot points have NOT worked on several computers.

The thing that is even more confusing to me is that I have access to three computers (all with different specs) that this 365 Home Premium & SkyDrive Pro client works fine on.

The specs for the computer with the above issues are as follows;
OS: Windows 7 Pro
Office: Microsoft Office 2013 - Home Premium

Thank you - Microsoft, for what I am sure will be an extremely prompt and helpful reply.

Regards,

Dale Bradley
